I currently have an aMember site running Moodle and I want to add different levels of membership + the ability to purchase 1 course instead of purchasing all of the courses together as a membership. I know that I can select what courses are a part of each membership item and that I can set the payment options to be a one time payment (for single courses) or monthly payment (for full site membership). The issue that I'm wondering about is that, in the past, even before I made a specific course a part of the membership option, if it was in Moodle, people would still be able to freely enroll in it. I'm not sure how. I guess when they click on the link for all courses, they see the new course and just click it to enroll. So, how do I set it up so that people are directed to purchase the course if they are not supposed to have access to it? Thank you
First go to the course setting and make each course Enrollable = No. This makes the course unenrollable from within Moodle. Now when someone tries to enter a course that they are not enrolled in Moodle will display a message like "This class is unenrollable" You need to try it and see what the exact message is. Find that string in the language files and change the message to something like "It looks like you are trying to access a class that you are not enrolled in. Click here (make this a hyperlink to your aMember signup page) to enroll in this class. Hope this makes sense. Trying to bang this out during a break at school.
Thanks and yes it made pretty good sense! I just had one question. You said, Well, I found the exact language that is used, "This course is not enrollable at the moment" but I haven't been able to find it in the language files. Do you have any clue which files it will most likely be in. I've been searching, but I have not been able to find it as of yet. If you aren't sure, that's fine. Just figured I'd ask. Thanks a lot!!
Found It! Never Mind- Found it! Thanks! I was looking in all of the lang files accept the obvious one - moodle.php! Just in case anyone else ever has this question, it's in the Moodle===>lang===>moodle.php Just open the file in wordpad or notepad and do a "find" search for "This course is not enrollable at the moment" Thanks for your help! ================================== OK, didn't find it. When I edited this string it disrupted my site. Plus, I realized that the string was in a section labeled, "Following is the content of your email:" so I don't think this is what I was looking for. So, I'm still looking...
I finally got it, thanks to Andrea at virtualassist.net She sent me a copy of an aMember integration pdf! Thanks again!
Yep that exact mod is in the integration manual. I should have took the time to directed you to the page in the manual but got sidetracked. Glad you got it working!
