For the student it saves around 9-10 clicks and avoids context switching between a browser and their email client where they can become easily become disengaged or run into issues if their email is unavailable.

Moodle Enrolment key based self-registration

This is a functional clone of the Email-based self-registration plugin that also enrols a user into available courses based on a token supplied. When a user enters a valid token it will automatically enrol them into the course that token was specified for.

Courses that provide self enrolment can restrict access to them with a key. If the signup token matches any course enrolment key then the new user will be enrolled into those courses.

Courses that provide self enrolment can restrict access to them with a key. If the signup key matches any course enrolment key then the new user will be enrolled into those courses.

The streamlined process flow:

(Signup page -> Course)

The normal self registration process flow:

(Signup page -> Confirmation page -> Open email client and click link -> Navigate to course -> Click on enrol -> Enter enrolment key -> Course)

Will there be a version compatible with Moodle 3.4 in the near future? If so, when?

It doesn't look like it. The maintainers will do it if you are willing to pay. In my case, it stopped working when went to Moodle 3.3. I checked with them on the cost and it was way too pricey for my "non-profit" organization. The lesson for me in this is to never get too dependent on 3rd party plugins.

Hi
i have installed this plugin on my 3.5 version and the course is live but when new users try to create an account and enter the enrolment key it keeps showing 'The enrolment key you have entered is invalid' i have changed it and ensured that it is the same yet it keeps returning this error... any idea's?

This plugin stopped working for me after Moodle 3.2 . I contacted the organization that developed it to see if they would update the code to get it working again, but they wanted to be paid to do it. We couldn't afford their fee so I uninstalled it. Too bad because it was a nifty plugin that made creating accounts a breeze. Oh well....such is life when you go with open source.

Hi guys, great plugin but after upgrading from 3.8 to 3.9 it stopped working. Do you plan a release for 3.9+? Ty.

Hi. I would like to use this plugin but I am running 3.9 and will upgrade soon to 3.11 - it seems the plugin only works up to 3.8 Are there plans to issue a new version? Thanks - it looks like a great plugin.

To anyone wishing to use this with 3.10+, if you go to the GitHub page...here --> https://github.com/catalyst/moodle-auth_enrolkey
and install VERSION3, it works with later versions of Moodle. It's one of the 8 branches available. I think the staff at Catalyst are bogged down, as many of us are, but they were nice enough to engage my inquiries and get me going in the right direction.

How do we install version 3 ? Sorry if I'm dumb with my question but I don't find where to download it. We're a small non profit with no coding expert ...

Hi, thanks for this wonderful plugin. We are using it on our site. We are now planning to upgrade the site to Moodle 4.0. So we are eagerly waiting for the updated version of this plugin for Moodle 4.0. Kindly advise by when we can expect to receive the new version of this plugin. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I am hoping to use this plugin together with quick register (https://moodle.org/plugins/local_quickregister), i.e. I would like to create a sign-up link where an "Enrolment key" value is contained. What are your thoughts on this?

Can you please add an option to modify the signup instruction text?

We like your auth_enrolkey Plugin, thanks a lot for sharing!
Are there plans for a 4.x version or or even a schedule?
Thank you!

This plugin has serious issues. For example, if enrolment key is not mandatory, it will enroll user in all courses that have self-enrolment enabled without key and also in all courses that have group enrolment enabled with groups without key.
