How to Create Meta Link in Course v2

Note: You need a Manager role before you can perform this action.

This will allow you to have multiple sections of a course in One Moodle course site instead of individual, separate ones. This can be an alternative way of setting up a category enrolment where one course with payment enrollment is linked with the rest of the courses within the category to allow one-time enrollment of the whole category.

In case Meta Link is done for category enrolment with payment, ensure that the main course paypal enrollment has been setup.

Step 1: Log in as the site administrator of your site. Click 'Site Administration' from the menu bar.

Step 2: From the 'Site Administration' page, click on the 'Plugins' on the second menu bar.


Step 3: Scroll down the list of the plugins and find 'Enrolments'. Then, click Manage enrol plugins.


Step 4: From the Manage enrol plugins Page find the 'Course Meta Link' from the list of enrolment plugins.

If the Enable button has a strike on the eye icon, just click it to enable the plugin.
Step 5If Course Meta Link has been enabled, click the 'Settings' in the same row. Fill-out the fields on the desired settings, click Save changes when done.

Step 6: Go to the course you want to add the Meta Link.



Step 7:
 On the second menu bar, click on the 'Participants'.


Step 8: On the Enrol User filter, click the dropdown buttons to show other options, choose 'Enrolment Methods'.


Step 9: The Enrolment Method for that certain course will show. To add another method, click on the dropdown list, choose 'Course Meta Link'.

Step 10: Choose the course you want the current course to be linked by selecting the course (with Paypal enrolment, if applicable) from the Link course section drop-down list. Once done, click Add method.



You have now created a Meta link.
