Course restore

From MoodleDocs

Template:Course admin Courses can be restored from a backup made by Moodle. Course backups are stored in the backupdata folder within the course files folder. There is a link next to every course backup that says restore. Each version of Moodle has its own slightly different process for restoring. Generally speaking a backup maybe restored several ways. It can

  • Copy over the data in any course, or
  • Add the backup to any course, or
  • Create a new course that is a duplicate.

These 3 options appear with most versions of Moodle as part of the restore process.

The backup and restore process is a common way of moving or, copying specific courses from one Moodle to another.
