Installation

mod_jitsi installs like any other Moodle activity module, into mod/jitsi.

  1. Log in to your Moodle as an administrator.
  2. Go to Site administration → Plugins → Install plugins.
  3. Search for Jitsi in the Moodle plugins directory or upload the ZIP, then follow the on-screen installer.
  4. Confirm the upgrade when Moodle prompts you.

Option B — Manual install (ZIP)

  1. Download the plugin ZIP from moodle.org/plugins/mod_jitsi or the GitHub releases.
  2. Unzip it into your Moodle's mod/ directory so the folder is mod/jitsi (not mod/moodle-mod_jitsi).
  3. Visit Site administration → Notifications and complete the database upgrade.

Option C — Git

cd /path/to/moodle/mod
git clone https://github.com/SergioComeron/moodle-mod_jitsi.git jitsi

Then visit Site administration → Notifications to finish the install.

Folder name matters

The plugin must live in mod/jitsi. If the directory is named anything else (for example moodle-mod_jitsi), Moodle will not detect it.

After installing

  1. Configure your Jitsi server option and the plugin settings.
  2. (Optional) Register a free mod_jitsi Account to unlock the attendance report and recording analytics.
  3. Create your first activity.
