With the basic Elgg PowerLink for WebCT, users must pass through WebCT to access Elgg. This means that users cannot log directly into Elgg, which may be a desired feature for your institution.

To address this requirement, we have created a WebCT authentication plug-in for Elgg. The plug-in bypasses Elgg's internal authentication mechanism, and instead connects to WebCT through its web-services interface. If the authentication is successful, the user is presented with their homepage on Elgg, as if they had accessed Elgg through the WebCT PowerLink.

For the technical details and installation information, please see the Readme file distributed with the plug-in.

To download the plug-in, please visit the Aperto Download Site.
