**Sharing Cart 4.4, release 3 is from 5 February 2024. Requires Moodle 4.2 and PHP 8.0** Download here or go to github: https://github.com/donhinkelman/moodle-block_sharing_cart/. Sorry for any confusion: Sharing 4.2 and Sharing Cart 4.3 were skipped here on the Plugins Database. And Sharing 4.4 was an overly ambitious name--it is actually for Moodle 4.3, and requires PHP 8.0.
The Sharing Cart is a block that enables sharing of Moodle content (resources, activities) between multiple courses on your site.
Latest release:
5125 sites
1k downloads
190 fans
Current versions available: 6
New version 4.5 is due soon (end of May 2024) which is a complete rework of the plugin. Sorry, but any bugs associated with current release will not be processed. We encourage you the retest the issue after the release of the new version and resubmit the issue.
Sharing cart allows the teacher to copy sections and individual activities into a clipboard (the 'sharing cart'), so the teacher can easily move activities from one course to another without having to go into the "Reuse course" function. Another common use case for the sharing is to created shared teachers course which a teacher can easily copy her best activities into and and other teaches can reuse those in his own courses. In addition, items can be collected and saved on the Sharing Cart indefinitely, serving as a library of frequently used course items available for duplication.
The sharing cart is currently maintained by the premium Moodle partner moxis. If you have any specific feature request. feel free to reach out on support@moxis.dk. Don Hinkelman from the Moodle Association of Japan is handling bug discussion, testing and user assistance in either in this forum or the github bug tracker. Please bear in mind this a community-driven plugin with limited resources.
Sharing Cart 3.0 was submitted to Remote Learner for independent vetting and passed May 2016. In versions 3.x, new interface programmed by moxis was added, in addition to 'Section Copy' feature and Postgres compatibility (co-funded by Ulm University, Germany and Sapporo Gakuin University, Japan). Thanks also to Ponlawat Weerapanpisit and other contributors for programming assistance.

thank you for the brilliant plugin.
Unfortunately we have an issue. We use the Multi-Language Content (v2) Plugin for our section section names. The settings of this filter are, that ist should apply to Content and headings. Unfortunately, the filter doesn't work proper with the Sharing cart. Are there any settings to make the language filtering correct for the sharing cart?
Best regards

Sharing cart is a super helpful tool when creating a new course and it works fine for most activitys.
Unfortunatually I am getting an Error while copying a Test activity (the standard activity of Moodle, not a plugin):
Error: Too few arguments to function restore_dbops::restore_get_question_categories(), 2 passed in [dirroot]\blocks\sharing_cart\backup\moodle2\restore_fix_missing_questions.php on line 52 and exactly 3 expected
I am using Moodle 4.0.5 now and the Error is still here since Moodle 3.11...
It would be nice if the next update will solve this Problem.
Best regards
I installed the actual plugin 4.0 R2 on Moodle 4.0.6+ and there ist a problem: There ist missing a carriage return while displaying the single lines. So I have to scroll the block to the right to find the single entrys.
Before the Update the displaying vertically in lines in one column was o.k.
Best regards
Do you have any thoughts on when a Moodle 4.3 compatible version might become available?
Best regards,

This comment above "The Sharing Cart uses Moodle core code to backup/restore. Since Moodle started, it always copies the entire question bank--all parts of the question bank that are in the same category or higher. There is no way around this bug, because Moodle HQ doesn't think it's a bug, they classify it as a feature request."
The good news is that Tim Hunt, Thomas Korner and Catalyst NZ have promised to fix this problem with a new question engine in Moodle 4.0/4.1. Let's see how it works.
Has this problem been fixed?
Depuis le passage à Moodle 4.4 hier, je n'arrive plus à coller dans les cours ce que j'ai placé dans le panier d'activités.
Quand je clique sur la section ou sur l'activité à coller, une seule zone d'atterrissage est proposée, juste sous le titre du cours.
Connaissez-vous le même problème ? Si oui, une idée en attendant une nouvelle version du panier ?
Un tout grand merci. 🌞
