This auth plugin combines the best of both email based signup and self enrolment keys into a streamlined process making it much faster for students to get into a course. 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)

Continuing the above problem.

the user is registered and can log in, but does not validate the code enroll in the course and so I reapplies the key.

hi Deniz,

That string, or in fact any string in moodle, can be edited. See this for more info:

hi Rob,

I've logged that as an issue here where you can follow it's progress:

https://github.com/catalyst/moodle-auth_enrolkey/issues/15

I can't guarantee when we will add support for 3.2, unless one of our clients needs it. If you'd like to sponsor this work please contact us: enquiries@catalyst-au.net

Txs! I have a programmer looking into it today. When he finds a solution, I will get back to you with the code and discuss if it is useful to adopt.

At the moment, it definitely does not work for Moodle 3.3 - same error as seen earlier for 3.2
