Object : Using the User Management to access different site on same server
I am working on www.schoolimprovement.vic.edu.au which is split into TWO different sections.    I want to add a third section, that being this DoceboLMS system.

Is there a way i can password protect all three sites with the user management system within DoceboLMS?    Very interested to hear your thoughts and advise on how i could do this.

Regards

You will need to dig into the PHP code to determine how best to change the menu structure.

I added a menu item to permit a jump to the CMS from the LMS and I expect you could do the same for your two external applications. You will also need export the user id as part of the redirect.

Here are the steps I performed:

--------------------------------

How to create a menu level link going to the CMS from the LMS system.

1. In file doceboLms/menu/menu_over.php:

after line 59:

$public_admin_area = '';

insert the following:

$GLOBALS['page']->add(
'<li><a class="om_first om_goto_cms" href="../doceboCms">'
. 'Goto CMS' // .$mo_lang->def('_GOTO_CMS')
.'</a></li>', 'menu_over');


2. In file doceboLms/templates/standard/style/style_menu.css

after line 18:

ul.tray li a.om_course{background-image:url('../images/standard/campus.gif');}

insert the following:

ul.tray li a.om_goto_cms{background-image:url('../images/standard/gotocms.gif');}


3. Create a new background image file, 22 x 22 gif format, containing
the icon to appear beside the text displayed when retrieved for the
language key '_GOTO_CMS'. Store this image file as:

doceboLms/templates/standard/images/standard/gotocms.gif


4. Insert a new language key in language table for _GOTO_CMS:

a. Use the admin interface:

admin->Main->Language->Language Management.

b. Select the language row of interest, and click on the list entries
icon (a blue framed rectangle with two lines of red dot and black
pseudo text on a white background).

c. Enter the Selection query values:
Platform: LMS
Module: menu_over

d. Click on 'Apply selection'.

e. Goto to bottom of page and click on 'Add key'.

f. Enter new key values:
Key: _GOTO_CMS
Module name: menu_over
english: Goto CMS
(other field values can be as you choose)

g. Click on 'Save changes'.

5. Test to confirm success.

--------------------------------
