The PoodLL Filter is the core PoodLL plugin for Moodle. It contains all the recorders, widgets and the code that makes it possible to use them around Moodle. It is a required component for all the other PoodLL plugins. - See more at: http://poodll.com/documentation/1.0/25/poodll-filter/#sthash.O8PxaJMX.dpuf
Poodll is a toolbox of features for Moodle, including audio and video recording, media players for the classroom and widgets such as tabs and stopwatches. The Poodll filter is a pre-requisite plugin for the Classic Poodll plugins, including Poodll Assignment Submission, Poodll Assignment Feedback, Poodll Recording Question type, Poodll Anywhere for Atto and TinyMCE. The newer Cloud Poodll plugins do not require the Poodll filter. NB Poodll requires an annual subscription fee, though a free 30 day trial is available.


==PoodLL Filter Strings==
Please watch the [https://youtu.be/o61o3IqIWjY '''Poodll Filter video'''] for an overview.


The PoodLL filter can be used on its own to insert interactive widgets in your Moodle courses. These widgets include the audio/video recorders and whiteboards. But they also include stopwatches, timers, flashcards and more.


A few sample filters are listed below. A more complete list is available [https://www.cheatography.com/justinhunt/cheat-sheets/poodll-filter/ here].
==Getting Started==
The Poodll filter requires a Poodll API username and secret. These are available with a free trial or paid subscription to Poodll. To get your API username and secret:


Stopwatch {POODLL:type=stopwatch,width=400,height=265}
# Visit the [https://poodll.com/package-poodll-essentials/ '''Poodll Essentials page'''] at poodll.com
# Take a "30 day Free Trial"
# Register your Moodle site URL on your member page
# Pick up your [https://poodll.com/member/?action=api '''Poodll API user and secret''']


Whiteboard {POODLL:type=whiteboard,width=600,height=350}
Then you can install the Poodll filter as usual from the Moodle plugins directory. After installation you will be asked for your API user and secret. The Poodll filter is quite large and can timeout during installation. It is best to set your PHP Max Execution time to 300 or greater. See  the [https://support.poodll.com/en/support/solutions/articles/19000078690-getting-started '''Getting Started Guide'''] for more information on installing and using the Poodll filter and Classic Poodll.

==Download==
 
Download from [https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=filter_poodll the Moodle plugins database].
 
==Installation==
 
There should be only one folder "poodll" expanded after you unzip the zip file. Place this folder into your moodle installation under the [site_root]/filter folder.
 
Then login to your site as admin and go to your Moodle site's top page. Moodle should then guide you through the installation or upgrade of the PoodLL filter. You can probably accept the defaults, scroll to the bottom of the page and press save.
