Moodle login via Joomla was created by john
Hi,

Im guessing that Joomdle is a little bit of overkill at present for what I need need to do, but here goes.

I've installed Joomdle on Moodle 1.9 and Joomla 1.5. Both are hosted on different domains, Moodle is hosted on an on-site server with a public ip, and Joomla is hosted on an online server. My install passes the system health checks.

I basically want to have a block on the Joomla site, allowing people to sign on to Moodle and be redirected to the Moodle homepage. I don't need any of the wrapper functionality at present, although I will be looking at this in the future.

Does anyone know of a quick and easy solution to this using Joomdle?]

Thanks in advance!

John

Hi.

You don't say if you need SSO: if not, I guess you don't need Joomdle: simple link to moodle in joomla home page will do it.

Joomdle integrates all the Joomla/Moodle sign up process, so there is no way to this (which is what I think you want to do):
- Have users register in Joomla (without being registered in moodle)
- Let users register in moodle from joomla in a separate optional process

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, I figured this out after I had made the post!

I've just used a some simple HTML code to do it in the end, using a Custom HTML block in Joomla. I'm still looking at creating a joomdle site. But for now, this works for me.

I'll leave the code in case antyone else finds it useful! :)
Code:
<form method="POST" action="http://yourmoodlesite/login/index.php"> Username: <input type="text" name="username" /> <br /> Password: <input type="password" name="password" /> <br /> <input type="SUBMIT" value="Login" /> </form>
