Moodle-admin_tool_groupautoenrol

Version 4.5.0 (stable version) for Moodle 4.5

Plugin to randomly auto enrol students in Moodle courses groups when they are enrolled into the course (whatever the enrol methods : auto-enrol by key, cohorts sync or manual enrol)

Things to know :

• The plugin uses \core\event\user_enrolment_created (user_enrolled) Moodle event
• If a selected group is deleted, the plugin will ignore it.

In this stable version (4.5.0) :

• GDPR implementation
• you can choose to enable the plugin in each course
• you can choose to auto-enrol students in all existing course or specific ones

Compatibility :

• Tested with Moodle 4.5 and PHP 8.1
• Another version of the plugin exist and works with Moodle 2.5 and 2.7 (I did not test it with the others versions but should work with all 2.x). It's a local plugin because adding link into "Course administration" menu was not possible for admin tool before Moodle 3.0 You can get it here : https://github.com/pascal-my/moodle-local_groupautoenrol/tree/STABLE

Installation

• Copy the directory 'groupautoenrol' into the moodledir/admin/tool directory.
• Connect to moodle as an administrator and install the plugin.
• Go to a course, create at least one group
• Enable the plugin for the course with the new link "Course administration > Users > Auto-enrol in groups" Note : this link appears even if the plugin is not enabled for the course
