All the conversion to some pseudo-codes are done at backup time. In the restore process, every link is decoded to new ids. For now, this is supported: - In backup: -all links to forums are encoded. - In restore: - all links to forums are decoded. - from forums (post->message). - from resources (resource->alltext). The process requires a backup made with the same version (because it has to be properly encoded at backup time). Old backups will work without conversions at all. Only tested with some little courses. It would be perfect to have some "big" course to test it. Please, test and feedback, ciao :-)
README $Id$ ---------- This directory contains my try to create a backup/recover admin option to moodle. I don't know when and how it'll be finished, but I'going to try it, sure. Some day, if this is fully functional, it could be integrated into the main Moodle distribution (ask uncle Martin). :-) Code here may not be tested - so there are no guarantees as to the quality of the code in here, even if part of a stable Moodle release. Please, for any comment about this option, do it in Moodle Developer Forum at: http://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=55 (searching an "backup" topic) or you can put tour comments in Moodel Bugs at: http://moodle.org/bugs/bug.php?op=show&bugid=84. All comments will be welcome. TIA. To see the general status of the utility, take a look to "STATUS.txt" in this directory. And this is all, I start with it NOW. Eloy (stronk7) 29-04-2003
