Connecting to Moodle

By using the Gibbon module "Moodle" you can use Gibbon to populate Moodle with users and courses. To do this you will need to install the module (see Extend) and then configure 2 areas of Moodle with the settings shown below:

  • Home > Site administration > Plugins > Authentication > External database (click on the image for more detail)

Moodle Users

  • Home > Site administration > Plugins > Enrolments > External database (click on the image for more detail)

Moodle Enrolment

Beyond this, follow the Moodle instructions for using cron to periodically pull data across from Gibbon to Moodle.
