Joomdle fornisce la possibilità di connettersi ad un sistema Joomla e Moodle utilizzando una singola login in Joomla ( Single Sign On SSO) utilizzando Joomla come "master".  
Joomdle provides Single Sign On (SSO) between Joomla and Moodle with Joomla being used as the "master". Therefore, user logins are performed using Joomla's login page and eliminates the need to login a second time when the user enters Moodle.
Con questo sistema gli accessi degli utenti sono gestiti attraverso la pagina di login, eliminando di fatto la necessità di effettuare un secondo login per utilizzare Moodle.


Joomdle SSO presenta le seguenti funzioni:
Joomdle's SSO provides the following functions:
* Quando un utente si connette in Joomla verrà automaticamente connesso in Moodle.
* When the user logs in Joomla, he is automatically logged in Moodle.
* Quanto un utente si disconnette da Joomla o Moodle, verrà automaticamente disconnesso dall'altro sistema.
* When the user logs out of either Joomla or Moodle, he/she is automatically logged out of the other.
* Le sessioni utente sono sincronizzate tra le due piattaforme.
* User sessions are syncrhonized between both platforms


'''Note:''' in current version, single log out is not working from Joomla to Moodle when they are sitting on different domains, ie: when the user logs out from Joomla, he will still be logged in Moodle.
This is caused  by how Moodle sessions work and PHP security settings relating cookies. We are currently investigating to try to find a way to make this work.


'''Nota:''' Nella versione attuale la disconnessione da Joomla a Moodle non funziona nel caso che i due sistemi siano in domini diversi, in pratica, quando un utente si disconnette da Joomla risulterà ancora connesso in Moodle. Questo comportamento anomalo è provocato dal modo di funzionamento delle sessioni di Moodle e dalle impostazioni di sicurezza dei relativi cookies. Al momento stiamo ricercando una soluzione in modo da risolvere questo inconveniente.

This document applies to Joomdle Release 2.0.0

Joomdle provides Single Sign On (SSO) between Joomla and Moodle with Joomla being used as the "master". Therefore, user logins are performed using Joomla's login page and eliminates the need to login a second time when the user enters Moodle.

Joomdle's SSO provides the following functions:

  • When the user logs in Joomla, he is automatically logged in Moodle.
  • When the user logs out of either Joomla or Moodle, he/she is automatically logged out of the other.
  • User sessions are syncrhonized between both platforms

Note: in current version, single log out is not working from Joomla to Moodle when they are sitting on different domains, ie: when the user logs out from Joomla, he will still be logged in Moodle. This is caused by how Moodle sessions work and PHP security settings relating cookies. We are currently investigating to try to find a way to make this work.
