Fileref:login/sl loginzone entry.php

(parent)

If accessed by a Moodle user who does not have a registered avatar, this Interface Script will allocate a new loginzone position to a user, providing them with a SLurl to teleport to in-world. The teleport point will be inside the Sloodle Login Zone object, allowing confirmation of avatar ownership. If the Moodle user already has a linked Sloodle user, then not loginzone position is allocated, and a SLurl to a point outside the loginzone is generated.

Dependencies

Sloodle files:

• config.php
• sl_debug.php
• lib/sl_lsllib.php
