Moodle LMS — online courses and access keys

Menu Our items → Moodle connection / Moodle courses / LMS keys (when the Moodle LMS module is enabled for the store).

EliaFlow orchestrates customers, sales (invoices), and time-limited access keys. Teaching content (text, images, short videos, quizzes) is built in Moodle.

Roles: EliaFlow vs Moodle

In EliaFlow (admin) In Moodle
Connection to the store’s Moodle server Lesson content, pages, quizzes
Catalogue training ↔ Moodle course link Course structure (sections, activities)
Access keys + email delivery Learner UI (login, reading)
Activation on the storefront Time-limited enrolment (driven by EliaFlow)
Training invoice → key when invoice is paid Grades / progress (Moodle side)

Prerequisites

  1. Moodle LMS module enabled (Module Control) for the service point.
  2. Trainings module often useful: catalogue price + invoicing.
  3. A Moodle connection saved and tested (“Test connection”).

Admin menus

Menu Purpose
Moodle connection Public URL, internal Docker URL, Web Services token, student role
Moodle courses Link / create a course, FR or EN locale, default access duration, invoice
LMS keys Activation codes, status, customer, dates, resend email
Trainings / Training categories “Create / Update Moodle · FR/EN” sync from the edit page

Typical flow (end to end)

  1. Moodle connection: public URL (e.g. http://localhost:8085), internal Docker URL if needed (http://moodle:8080), and Web Services token; test it.
  2. Moodle courses — three ways:
    • A — Link an existing Moodle course (picker + “Refresh from Moodle”).
    • B — Create / update from a Filament training (FR / EN header buttons on edit).
    • B2 — Categories: sync training category → Moodle category (FR / EN).
  3. Invoice (flow C): from the linked course or enrolled users → prefilled invoice with the linked training; when the invoice is paid, EliaFlow creates the LMS key (duration = link “Default access duration”, otherwise 30 days) and can send email.
  4. Or create a manual key (days and/or absolute date window) and email it.
  5. The customer redeems on the storefront (/en/lms/activate?code=… or /fr/...) or via the email link.
  6. EliaFlow creates the Moodle account if needed, enrols until the end date, then sends the learner to Moodle.

On expiry, automatic unenrol runs (moodle-lms:expire-access-keys).

Bilingual setup

Layer Behaviour
Moodle UI FR or EN chosen by the learner (language selector / preferences)
Teaching content Two separate courses (e.g. introduction-fr / introduction-en), each linked with its course language
Keys One key = one course = one language; storefront link follows /fr/ or /en/

Rule: a FR key does not enrol into the EN course.

Course content (trainers)

Trainers edit inside Moodle (Page, images, video URL, Quiz).
Detailed guide (recommended structure, videos, branding): technical doc MOODLE_TRAINER_GUIDE.md (team / not shown on public /docs).

Invoicing and access duration

Item Detail
Linked training Required for “Create invoice” (price = training price)
Default duration Field on the course link (days); otherwise 30 days
Manual key Duration relative to redeem and/or absolute dates
Key statuses draft, active, redeemed, expired, revoked
