Hi, everybody.

I'd like to export all forum conversations into a "static web site". The main idea is to burn a CD with all the forum information for researchers who don't have Internet access, does anyone know a software to do the forum backup?

Please help me. Thanks, Carla

We added an export/print feature at the request of our faculty. It allows users to export an entire forum to a text file or spreadsheet, or print it out. It's attached as a patch file to this tracker request - MDL-9469.

Hi Ann.

I installed the patch and work fine!! thanks, it's easier to manipulate the information in a spreadsheet than in a word processor.

Thanks again.

Hi Carla,
If you have a large number of forums in one moodle course and want to bulk export all of them you may consider using Dean Stringer's utility http://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=99400#p439599

Hello Everybody,

I have created a PHP script that will export all your forums, grouped by discussion, into an HTML file.

I tried the XSLT and the patch, and both failed with exporting my forum. If anyone is interested, please reply to this post, and i'll help you out.

Regards,
Ulises

Hi Ulises,

I'd appreciate a copy - perhaps add it as an attachment to the forum here?

 

Thanks,

Mark
