-
Import Selected Courses as Product and Save as Draft:
- With this option, you can import selected courses as products in LMSACE Connect, but they will be saved as drafts initially. This gives you the opportunity to review and make any necessary adjustments before publishing them.
-

LMSACE Connect provides two options for the SSO Activation Method, allowing you to define when the Single Sign-On (SSO) functionality is triggered.
- Login on WP: With this option, SSO will be activated when a user logs into WordPress. Once authenticated, the user can seamlessly access other connected systems or applications without the need for additional logins.
- Access the Course: Selecting this option triggers SSO when a user accesses a specific course from the "My Courses" page in the WooCommerce MyAccount section.
- The Redirectless Single Sign-On (SSO) feature creates a seamless background session in Moodle LMS when a user logs into WordPress. This allows users to access Moodle resources without being redirected to another login page. Please note that Redirectless SSO only works when the "SSO Activation Method" setting is set to "Login on WP."
- The "Create users in Moodle on new registration" setting in LMSACE Connect determines when users are added to Moodle LMS. If enabled, users will be created in Moodle right after they register on WooCommerce. However, if this setting is disabled, user creation in Moodle will occur when they try to log in or access Moodle through WooCommerce.
LMSACE Connect provides two options for how users authenticate and log in to the system: Manual and LMSACE Connect.
-
Manual Authentication:
- The Manual method allows users to log in to Moodle via WordPress and automatically creates a Moodle user with a new password. The user's password is then sent to them via email, enabling them to log in to Moodle directly using the shared credentials. Also, it allows users to log in via SSO.
-
LMSACE Connect Authentication:
- The LMSACE Connect method offers SSO integration with Moodle LMS using the auth_lmsace_connect authentication method. With this method, LMSACE Connect creates a new user without a password in Moodle. Users can only access the Moodle site using SSO, and direct login into Moodle is disabled.
