! 2: Courses can be configured to permit self-enrollment. Settings are
! 3: available for the following:
! 4:
! 5: \begin{itemize}
! 6: \item Types and affiliations of users who can self-enroll
! 7: \item Restrict self-enrollment to students who are listed as officially
! 8: registered for the course in institutional course roster(s) for sections
! 9: of the course or for crosslisted courses.
! 10: \item Opening date/time for self-enrollment and closing date/time.
! 11: \item Starting and ending dates for access to the course for users who self-enroll.
! 12: \item Assign a specific section to users who self-enroll
! 13: \end{itemize}
! 14: When self-enrollment is set up a warning will be displayed if the
! 15: course is not listed in any course catalogs available in the domain.
! 16: Guidance on how to get the curse listed will also be provided if a
! 17: warning is displayed.
! 18:
! 19: If a course is listed in a catalog users when viewing the course catalog
! 20: will be able to search for the course (there is a checkbox to restrict
! 21: courses listed in the catalog display to just those courses for which
! 22: self-enrollment is available). If such courses exist the list of courses
! 23: will displayed will include self-enroll link for each course. Users
! 24: can reach the course catalog from the Main Menu screen, and also for
! 25: the roles page. Course Coordinators and other users with advanced
! 26: roles in the system can also reach the course catalog in the same
! 27: way, although the link on the roles page is less prominent for these
! 28: types of user.
! 29:
! 30: A user must be logged into LON-CAPA in order to self-enroll in a course.
! 31: However, if your domain permits it, users may be able to create a
! 32: LON-CAPA account, and log-in if your domain permits this. Most commonly
! 33: self-creation of accounts is permitted where a user can authenticate
! 34: with a username and password assigned by your institution to access
! 35: online services provided by the institution. If a user clicks the
! 36: {}``self-enroll in course'' link from the catalog, and needs to
! 37: create an account, once the account creation step is completed successfully,
! 38: the user will proceed automatically to self-enrollment in the course,
! 39: assuming the user meets any restrictions set for self-enrollment in
! 40: the particular course.
