Import data will not import student or teacher data, such as forum posts and discussions. It will only import the structure of such activities.
How to use import course data
- Select the Import option from the Course administration block.
- Next, select the course you wish to import from and click the Use this course button.
- You will be presented with a check box list from which you can select the type of activities or resources you wish to import.
- Finally, click Continue when done to import that data.
NB: Selecting forums, for example, will import all forums from that course in Moodle 1.6. Since Moodle 1.7, you can import individual items within a module type.
Groups can also be imported as a batch from a file.
Backups, especially since 1.6, offer other creative ways to bring in course material from other courses. See Course_backup or the backup link on the index.
