Talk:Upload users
From MoodleDocs
I copied text from the help file to this page. Please let me know if this is not the way to go. I felt that the Docs should be self-sufficient without the "online help files". --Samuli Karevaara 02:39, 1 September 2006 (CDT)
Possible inconsistency or lack of clarity
It's not obvious whether these two sections contradict each other:
- Note: If a user is already registered in the Moodle user database, this script will return the userid number (database index) for that user, and will enrol the user as a student in any of the specified courses WITHOUT updating the other specified data
- By default Moodle assumes that you will be creating new user accounts, and skips records where the username matches an existing account. However, if you set "Update existing accounts" to Yes, the existing user account will be updated.
Is the former an exception to the latter? Does adding an existing user to a course and/or group count as 'updating'? --David Scotson 13:37, 6 September 2006 (CDT)
