:I am pretty sure you are wrong - I remember fixing a bug where any URLs in HTML blocks were not rewritten when restoring to a different site. I can't think why it would be inappropriate to post something in the forums if it is OK to post here. If you are unsure about something, post in the forum to learn the answer, then add definitive information to the docs. I don't see how adding speculation to the docs helps anyone?--[[User:Tim Hunt|Tim Hunt]] 03:27, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

If you want to ask a question, you would do better posting in an appropriate forum, e.g. http://moodle.org/mod/forum/view.php?id=746. Blocks should be backed up and restored.

Thank you for your comment, Tim. Actually, it is not appropriate to post this in forums for a few reasons. Right now, we need this following line added in the Backup and Restore FAQ:

"Standard blocks usually are backed up except for HTML blocks (you must copy them manually to the new course)."
