Copy/paste an entire week 17 times...?

Copy/paste an entire week 17 times...?

I have developed a standard week of 11 entries.  Each week will have minor changes throughout the semester.  Is there any way to copy/paste the entire week as one effort to save an incredible amount of time over duplicating and dragging every line?

2.8.1 soon to be 2.9.1 version...

Don't really know of a way of doing it that doesn't require some repetition, but you might try this.

I would use a hidden resource course with one week set with my entries the way I want them. In your case you might want to make it in topic 11 or 12, with all the others empty. I would then go to my active course and import my resource course into it. Once the import is over, in edit mode move the new topic 11 or 12, to the correct week/topic of the active course. Rinse and repeat as necessary to add other weeks.
