janchan	Subject: Getting everything to work together
	I recently had ATutor installed on my web server. I run 3 websites from this one site. I am unclear about how to link my ATutor course server to my business Website. I would prefer that students select and pay for courses they want to take before registering to get into the course server. Maybe I'm making this more difficult than it needs to be. Should I set up my course catalog with links to Paypal for payment on my business website, and then, after I receive payment confirmation, give students the URL to the course server? I installed the payment module in ATutor. Would I just ignore that if I did the above? If I did this, to restrict access to the course server, would I need to assign usernames and passworks, which I would then disable after the sessions are over? Thank you for you help.

	We do something similar. On one of our sites we have a separate list of available courses, each with a link to register and enroll (using the autoenroll at registration feature, see the Admin handbook), or just enroll if the person is already registered. Courses are all set to private for this to work. see: snow.utoronto.ca/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=306&Itemid=389 The Payment module is configured to automatically enroll students in a course when a payment is received, but you could set it up to manually enroll students on approval by the instructor, to add all students at once for instance. There's also the Master List option. It can be setup with a key and value pair (e.g. birthday and member id, or whatever) which only allows student in the list to register. See the Handbook for details. I'm sure there are other ways. Experiment. Posted: 2010-03-02 13:46:29
