[Bug 1434131] Re: Add an option to show or hide the login side block

 

Hi Jinelle,

Sorry for the delay, I'm from Canada so timezones are a bit different ;)

Here are the testing instructions :
* Go edit the config.php file of your Mahara instance and add the following line : $cfg->showloginsideblock = false;
* Go to your home page. The login sideblock should not be visible and there should be "login" link in the top right bar.
* Click on the login link. You should be redirect to the login page (yourdomain/mahara/?login), where you can enter your login/password and then log in. 
* Logout and go edit the config.php file again with the following line : $cfg->showloginsideblock = true;
* You should see the default interface with the login sideblock in your home page and be able to log in/log out.

That's it! Tell me if you need some more information.

Thx!

Jean-Philippe

Title:
  Add an option to show or hide the login side block

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  When using Moodle Mnet or CAS as Mahara authentication, it is
  necessary to have an option that let you hide the login side block
  because the authentication page is external. So if you have only one
  type of authentication in your Mahara instance that is external, you
  need to use the config externallogin (#885029) and have another config
  that hide the login side block. This way only one login button is
  shown in the top right section (see attachments).

  A patch will follow.
