Bridging the gap

Moodle, the renowned learning management system, empowers educators and learners worldwide. However, despite its robust features, Moodle lacks seamless integration with WordPress, a popular content management system (CMS). Fortunately, Lingel Learning, a Certified Moodle Partner, has developed a comprehensive plugin that bridges this gap. In this article, we will delve into how the Lingel Learning WordPress Integration Plugin can help overcome these challenges.

Moodle Out of the Box

Manual User Account Creation

When instructors want to provide access to their Moodle courses, they must manually create user accounts. This process can be time-consuming, and challenging to manage for large-scale courses or rapidly growing user bases.

Disconnected Course Management

Without integration, administrators must manage course creation, updates, and deletions separately in both Moodle and WordPress. This disconnected approach can lead to inconsistent information and confusion.

Limited E-commerce Integration

If educators wish to sell their courses as products through WordPress, they face additional complexities. They may need to juggle multiple platforms, leading to potential payment processing issues, data discrepancies, and a fragmented user experience.

Complicated Order Completion

Handling course purchases through different systems can lead to confusion during order completion, leading to delays, potential disputes, and an overall dissatisfactory experience.

What are authentication methods

Within Moodle, there are numerous ways to authenticate users into your site. These are often referred to as Authentication methods. You can set and view the current authentication methods for your site by navigating to:

Site administration > Plugins > Authentication > Manage authentication

You can disable specific authentication methods or move their order within the list of priorities. The table will also display the number of users that are using this authentication method to log into your site.

What is single-sign-on?

Single-sign-on is a service that allows a user to log into multiple websites and software with a single identity. For example, you may be familiar with using your Google account to log into multiple websites. This service is beneficial due to its simplicity, and not requiring the user to memorize multiple login credentials for various sites.

The SAML2 and OpenID are two popular single-sign-on plugins used within the Moodle community.

SAML2

The SAML2 plugin is a great choice because all the setting configuration is done within Moodle. This means that you do not need to perform any additional installs or utilize any extra applications. You can install the plugin and ensure that you have enabled it within the Manage authentication page. You may access the SAML2 settings from this page or follow the instructions below.

Access SAML2 settings page:
Site administration > Plugins > Authentication > SAML2

For more information on the SAML2 authentication plugin please refer to:
https://moodle.org/plugins/auth_saml2

OpenID Connect

The OpenID authentication plugin provides the single-sign-on functionality by utilizing configurable identity providers. These include the Azure Active Directory which is included in the Microsoft 365 suite of plugins. This plugin allows users to log into Moodle with their Microsoft 365 account. Users with the existing Moodle accounts can be switched over to this authentication type. In addition, new users can log in with this plugin and have a new Moodle account created for them.

Please ensure that you have enabled the plugin on the Manage authentication page. You can access the settings for OpenID Connect by clicking the settings link or alternatively by following the instructions below.

Access OpenID Connect settings page:
Site administration > Plugins > Authentication > OpenID Connect

For more information on the Moodle legacy OAuth2 authentication, plugin please refer to:
https://docs.moodle.org/400/en/OAuth_2_authentication

For more information on Google’s OAuth2 authentication plugin, please refer to:
https://moodle.org/plugins/auth_googleoauth2

Setting a user’s authentication method

A user’s authentication method can be updated or defined when the user account is created or when the user profile is edited.

For example, users who have the OpenID Connect authentication method may log into your Moodle site by clicking the OpenID Connect button on the login page.
