In reply to: Woocommerce and Moodle 2.5Just a note that I’ve put this on the back burner and have moved to a solution selling courses through Moodle itself. It’s no where near as elegant a solution as using the WooCommerce plugin would be; I just couldn’t justify the time as I wanted to release any code changes back to the Moodle community.
Within WordPress I have a page for each course and each page links to the associated purchase/enrol page within Moodle.
If anyone’s really keen I’d be happy to link up with another developer to write a Moodle plugin (probably based on the External Database plugin) allowing easy access to the WordPress database. I’d like to see something like the External Database plugin for Moodle but one that includes WordPress as an option and has class-phpass.php embedded in order to handle WordPress’s passwords (along with a few other details).
I’d love to implement this as a Moodle plugin for ease of use for the wider community but I simply haven’t got the time at the moment to do it all on my own.

In reply to: Woocommerce and Moodle 2.5Hi Wisedave.
Sorry for my slow reply. We haven’t run any of our scheduled test cases against this yet but the there is a blog post online where we got our inspiration from -> http://blog.giuseppeurso.net/moodle-and-wordpress-single-sign-on-in-20-minutes-part-1/index.html.
I’ve been able to create a dummy account and purchase a dummy course via WordPress/Woocommerce and have Moodle authenticate the dummy user and allow access to the dummy course with this setup.
Once we complete our testing I’ll do a write-up on the steps etc.
Regards.

In reply to: Woocommerce and Moodle 2.5I’ve got a test system up and running. I’ll post a follow-up on here later in the week but it’s still a test so I’m not sure how robust my workflow is yet.
Regards.
