**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.

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.

if you update the parent object, will all the "carted off" versions update automatically?
Has anyone tried this on Moodle 3.2? The icon "copy to sharing cart" in editing mode just doesn't appear (properly installed and enabled block on course page). Also, adding this block disables drag&drop for activities in the same page. It seems like a great plugin and I hope there's a solution. Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Roman
It works on 3.2+ but as you already stated it breaks Drag and Drop and even worse the 'add an activity or resource' button.
On this stage I would recommend NOT to install this at least with a running Boost theme!
But I also agree that it's a great plugin with a lot of useful functionality so hopefully it will be fixed soon.
Best regards,
Stefan
Can someone please confirm (or deny) if the latest version (3.0 release 1 - 2016032900) is compatible with Moodle 3.1? If not, do you know when 3.1 will be supported?
Many thanks
Costas
I just heard from our programming team that the Sharing Cart issues have been fixed and tested OK on Moodle 3.1 and Moodle 3.2. Tested on More and Clean themes for 3.1 and Boost, More, Clean for 3.2. Please tell us if it works well for you. Download here for now (and soon from Moodle.org): https://github.com/VERSION2-Inc/moodle-block_sharing_cart/
Thank you for your patience. Don
