I want to pass additional LDAP attributes (such as Student ID and Display Name) to the account creation process, does anyone know how to do that.

 

Best Rgds,

You can get a patch from http://mahara.org/view/view.php?id=16404 to do it. It applies cleanly to Mahara 1.3 and Mahara 1.4rc4 current as of today.

Hello,

   I just added a little test to your patch since currently the user creation process (login_submit@auth/lib.php) tries to call two non existing functions (sanitize_studentid and sanitize_preferedname) that were added in master branch of Mahara on gitorious. 

Cheers.

P.S : they are one 'feature' in Mahara LDAP interaction that is not  in its 'cousin' Moodle's one  : your must respect the case of the attributes names in mapping (eg supannEtuId and not supannetuid)  , not cool

Hi Patrick,

I've just opened bug #906996 (https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/906996) to address this. You can see the patch at https://reviews.mahara.org/951

Saludos.
