restoring public questionnaires

restoring public questionnaires

I have a number of courses that use the same questionnaire. So, I created a new hidden course and created a public questionnaire in it. When I create a course and add a questionnaire I chose the correct one from the list. This way all my responses are recorded in one area. All good.

When I Backup a course that has questionnaires (that responses are recorded in the hidden course) and Restore them, the questionnaires are themselves Public, therefore I have more than one Public questionnaire.

Is there a way around this?

Apologies for a long a complicated post!

That's an interesting case. I will have a look into it and post my remarks here.

Thanks Joseph.

I've tested this myself and the list of public questionnaires increased. I'm using Moodle 1.9.

After consultation with Mike Churchward, we are aware of this problem but cannot do anything about it. The "public questionnaire" feature is very complicated as it exists, and any tampering with it might have serious consequences, especially for security issues. The advice we can give is that questionnaires which are based on a "public" one should not be backed-up and restored.
