Moodle availability plugin which lets users restrict resources, activities and sections based on enrolment methods

This plugin requires Moodle 3.11+

Install the plugin like any other plugin to folder /availability/condition/enrolmentmethod

See http://docs.moodle.org/en/Installing_plugins for details on installing Moodle plugins

After installing the plugin, it is ready to use without the need for any configuration.

Teachers (and other users with editing rights) can add the "Enrolment method" availability condition to activities / resources / sections in their courses. While adding the condition, they have to define the enrolment method which students have to have in course context to access the activity / resource / section.

If you want to learn more about using availability plugins in Moodle, please see https://docs.moodle.org/en/Restrict_access.

The availability plugin checks if the user has the given enrolment method and, if yes, grants access to the restricted activity.

However, there is the capability moodle/course:viewhiddenactivities (see https://docs.moodle.org/en/Capabilities/moodle/course:viewhiddenactivities) which is contained in the manager, teacher and non-editing teacher roles by default. If a user has a role which contains moodle/course:viewhiddenactivities, he is able to use an activity / resource / section even if the teacher has restricted it with availability_enrolmentmethod to some other role.

Because of that, availability_enrolmentmethod can't be used to hide activities / resources / sections from users who already are allowed to view hidden activities in the course. Use this availability restriction plugin wisely and explain to your teachers what is possible and what is not.
