Chamilo LMS¶

NOTE TO READERS: As of the 1/1/2020, this wiki is hugely outdated, but might contain some unique (but old) information, which is why we have left it here. The new wiki for all things concerning Chamilo is available here: https://github.com/chamilo/chamilo-lms/wiki

Chamilo LMS is an e-learning and talent management system developed under the GNU/GPLv3 license. It uses the PHP language and connects to MySQL or MariaDB for information retrieval.

This wiki tries to give pointers to the visitor. If you have a question and cannot find the answer here, just send us an e-mail at info@chamilo.org or create an account and write to us on the forum: https://chamilo.org/forum/

Testing Chamilo for bugs¶

If you'd like to make sure something that is happening on your Chamilo portal is not specific to your portal, we provide a series of test portals (regularly erased and replaced by newer versions) for each branch of Chamilo. Log into any of these as administrator using the login/password pair admin/admin:

https://1.9.chamilo.org/ is a platform up to date with the latest patches in the 1.9.x branch
https://1.10.chamilo.org/ is a platform up to date with the latest patches in the 1.10.x branch
https://1.11.chamilo.org/ is a platform up to date with the latest patches and developments in the 1.11.x branch
https://2.chamilo.org/ is a platform up to date with the latest developments for the "master" branch, which will first become Chamilo 2.0

This will change over time, but the logic will stay the same. So if you have a doubt, confirm your test case on one of these portals, so you can share the URL publicly of where the problem appears. This will help us a lot when locating the issue and trying to solve it.
