User profile integration

  • When the user updates his Jomsocial profile, data (name, email, city...) is replicated in Moodle profile
  • When the user updates his Jomsocial avatar, it is also updated on Moodle

Activities in wall

When enabled, activities are created in Jomsocial:

  • When a new course is added in Moodle, a new activity informs of it in Jomsocial
  • When a user enrols into a course, a new activity is added to his profile
  • When a user submits a quiz attempt, a new activity is added to his profile (Moodle 2.1+ only)

Jomsocial groups for Moodle courses

Every time a new course is created in Moodle, a new group is created in Jomsocial for it.

Every time a user enrols into a Moodle course, he is added too to the corresponding Jomsocial group.

Links to Course content

A new plugin, joomdlejsbar, lets you have a Courses menu item in Jomsocial tab menu.
