When added to a course this enrolment plugin can enrol users onto a course automatically, either as they log into your Moodle site or as they click on the course. It is intended for use on site-wide courses such as "Moodle Help" or "Learner Voice".

In addition the plugin has advanced functionality to support autmatically grouping and filtering users based upon their attributes. Depending on how your user accounts are set
up this may help you to give access to certain user groups.

Configuration of the plugin is managed by two permissions which allow administrators to easily control who has access to the plugin.

Hi Mark,
We've been using this plugin and it has been very useful. However now we need to upgrade our Moodle 3.1, so we're wondering if this plugin will still work well or will the plugin be developed to be compatible with 3.1?
Thank you!

Congrats, nice plugin! I'm no programmer but I was able to alter the code to filter by username, instead of email, for a specific purpose.
We have a few users-to-be from an external database, who we need to "reserve" the enrollment so that they get in the course when they signup on first login.
That would be nice from you to officially add "username" to the filter options.

Hello,
I made several changes and fixes to Auto Enrol plugin and I submitted a pull request to Mark on Github last December to merge to his repository.
My changes are on Github (https://github.com/bobopinna/moodle-enrol_autoenrol) and, if needed, I could help Mark to maintain Auto Enrol plugin.

Hi everyone,

Thanks for supporting the plugin - I'm planning some time for upgrading and modernising AutoEnrol but in order to understand how best to progress things I could use more information about how it's being used.

I've created a survey (link below) which will be really important in deciding the next steps, so please do take a moment to complete it if you're using AutoEnrol.

Thanks again!

Hello,

Please consider developing just a one Autoenrol-plugin with other developers instead of the 3 we have now, I'm referring to these;

Hello, I am trying to set up multiple user accounts with for testing Moodle over a continuous period of time, is the Autoenrol plugin the best way to achieve this or is there a better set up? We want to make the process easy for everyone to follow. Can someone walk me through the steps? - I'm new to Moodle and am just starting to understand the back end. Thank you!

For reference 2.0 (2017122500) does not work on 2.8 (and assuming also 2.7 and 2.6). The old version listed here does, unfortunately I wasn't able to downgrade after updating to (2017122500). A little bit of bodging with the version numbers allowed this though and the site is working again. NB, when I say doesn't work, it completely broke Moodle's admin menus, couldn't even get to notifications, WSOD with no errors.

To avoid confusion, 2.6, 2.7 and 2.8 should be removed from v2.0 and people should use v1.3 for those versions.

Thanks for the message. I removed old moodle versions from plugin 2.0 compatibility list.
Now I'll check it on moodle 2.6-2.8 and try to fix it.

Sorry,
Roberto.

No worries Roberto, just didn't want anyone else experiencing the same issues after updating their plug-ins I suspect most users aren't on 2.8 anyway!

Hello,
sorry but it doesn't seem to be a bug related with autoenrol plugin.
I've tried to reproduce your problem but I never get any errors.

If you think it's still related to autoenrol plugin, please fill an issue on GitHub with a step by step test guide to reproduce your problem.

HTH,
Roberto.
