My Own Moodle

Hello Moodlers,

At iMoot 2014 I presented a session on how to install your own local Moodle using:

  • All in one Moodle packages.
  • Bitnami.
  • EasyPHP.
  • WAMPServer.
  • Zend Server.

Now that the recordings are public, I have placed the slides and recording at: http://www.slideshare.net/gb2048/my-own-moodle.

There are also some guides that go along with the slides / recording.  They are too big to upload here, so can somebody suggest a good place?  I do not wish to use my own website as it has limited download bandwidth restrictions.

Cheers,

Gareth

Thanks Gareth- I have added the link to the Installation documentation for 2.6 and 2.7 smile It would be good if we can find a place to host the guides too. (Do you have a dropbox or Google drive account? Or is that limited too?)

Hi Mary,

I have Google drive and was considering Dropbox.  Which is better?  Are there any download restrictions?  The material is: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ and the Zend guide is now out of date.

Cheers,

Gareth

That's a point - I don't know about download restrictions; I only occasionally share stuff on dropbox (now I learned how to!) and haven't ever had hoardes of people desperate to download them so I wouldn't know if there were restrictions. Depending on the format of the documents it might be better to upload and convert to Google Drive, but I don't know.

Thanks Mary, I think I might be fine with: https://support.google.com/drive/answer/6558?hl=en&ref_topic=2375005.

Ok, this is the folder containing the guides: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B17B0rYH2zERU21sQnVweUZCUFk&usp=sharing

I cannot stress enough that they are 'Use at your OWN risk', are http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/ licensed and come with NO support whatsoever.  Pragmatically I am very busy with contributed themes and course formats so have no time to answer "I'm stuck on page X" type questions.
