This document applies to Joomdle Release 2.0.0

If you are installing Moodle for the first time, it will check for the existence of the PHP extension XML-RPC. Please ensure it is installed.

For further information on PHP XML-RPC libraries refer to Prerequisites#PHP_Prerequisites

Once Moodle has been installed, a number of options must be configured:

Networking/Settings

Activate Networking:	Administration Menu → Networking → Settings Networking: On
Add Joomla server IP to the list of XML-RPC trusted hosts	Administration Menu → Networking → XML-RPC hosts If it is the same server: 127.0.0.1/32 If you are working on a hosted site, it may be necessary to add its public IP address
Activate Moodle Network Authentication in Authentication Plugins	Administration Menu → Users → Authentication → Manage authentication Enable Moodle Network authentication To enable Auto Add Remote Users enter Settings and select "Yes"
Make Moodle stay within the wrapper	The breadcrumb links in Moodle have target="_top", so if you click on them, you would get out of the wrapper. To prevent this, you can modify an option in Server->HTTP. Set Frame Name to empty value. moodle_networking_xml_host.jpg
Allow visitors to enter Moodle courses directly.	If we want guest to enter directly to Moodle courses available for them, we actiavte auto-login for guests: Administration Menu → Users → Permissions → User Policies Activar Auto-login guests
