      Change the order of the enrolment methods in the course settings so that the method you want to unenrol people from is at the top of the list. Then just use any of the displayed bulk operation buttons (for the correct plugin). The bulk operation is executed for the first method in the list. If the first method is the correct one then the bulk operation succeeds.

      Description

      Bulk enrolment actions (e.g. initiated from user/index.php) fail when multiple instances of the same plugin are present for a course. In our case, we have several different self-enrolment possibilities, and attempts to bulk-unenrol fail.

      The cause is that the "plugin" parameter being passed to enrol/action-redir.php is inadequate to describe the instance, and action-redir.php identifies and obtains a manager object for the wrong one, subsequently finding no matching userids and removing the specified users from the list upon which it should act.
