Gareth, I just upgraded my sandbox, and I don't see any problems. I don't think any of the MDL problems were bothering me. I installed your 3.9.0.1 version of CT into my Moodle 3.9.1 (Build: 20200713).

Thanks Rick,

Unfortunately 3.9.0.1 of CT does have an issue with restore on all course formats.

Everyone, please update Collapsed Topics to 3.9.0.2 on M3.9: moodle.org/plugins/pluginversion.php?id=22059

Gareth, I have both of these fixes in place (meaning I have V3.9.0.3 installed.) I haven't noticed any problems. A few days ago, prior to 3.9.0.1, I did notice the restore problem. But today, everything is working well. I thought that I would let you know. Thanks much.

Just released V3.9.0.4 -> moodle.org/plugins/pluginversion.php?id=22142 - which adds the 'duplicate' section code from the 'onetopic' format and has a patch for MDL-68330.

Hi Gareth, I just tried your update on my sandbox and everything worked well.

This is an interesting additional feature, one that seems to be asked for frequently. Nice work!

Of course, if the section contains a "quiz," the time to duplicate a section can be long. But this happens when using core moodle to duplicate a quiz, so it does not (should not) reflect negatively upon your added "duplicate" feature.

Thanks Rick, to be fair, the credit for most of the code goes to David Herney Bernal on the OneTopic format -> https://moodle.org/plugins/format_onetopic.
