This block is based on the Upload Tutor relationships block, but instead of linking users together, it links courses together using Metacourse links.
The block accepts CSV files in the following format:
operation, parent_course, child_course
- operation can be add (to link) or del (to unlink)
- parent_course is the ID Number of the meta course
- child_course is the ID Number of the course
After being linked, all users of child_course will be enrolled to parent_course via the metacourse link.
The file can be processed by the block on demand through the block interface itself, or automatically via a cron job. The block's settings allow a location to be configured for the cron file, and processed files can be archived if required.
Please dont report bugs here

We (UoN) will be making a pull request to get the necessary changes implemented. We are not sure if the plugin is still maintained though.

I have submitted some further fixes for the Moodle 2.6/2.7 version for some issues noticed by our testers:
1. settings screen was not accessible
2. non-managers could add the block on homepage
I have also added a couple of behat tests.

I'm afraid I won't be looking into issues with versions of Moodle that are no longer supported, such as 2.5. I'd recommend upgrading to a supported Moodle release.
Same question as Elizabeth... do you have any plans to create a version for Moodle 2.8 ?
Many thanks
There is a new plugin for this: https://moodle.org/plugins/tool_uploadenrolmentmethods
