I made a little hack to the local_catdup_main_form.php file, after line 41 (added: $catpath[$category->id] = $category->id . ' - '; ) and now the ID number appears in front of the category name for me. Much easier to work with. I hope that you can make this change a little slicker in your next update.

Hello,
it seems that this plugin is accessible only to "Site Administrator" role (I've make a test on Moodle 3.9).
Is it possible to make it accessible to "Manager" role?

Hey, Jacques, I suggest you add it to the Bug Tracker (link above) as a suggestion. I think it's a good idea.

I'm really hoping to see some activity on this plugin, because it could be so useful with some of the kinks worked out.

Hi, I tried to duplicate a category, then I got a notification via email that the category is not empty. Even though I have created an empty category before. Is there any solution? Thank you in advance

Thanks for making this, but I don't understand how the shortname extension is supposed to work. I supplied an extension, but it just added _1 instead. And can there be a way to *not* add "copy 1" to the new course name?

This would be super useful for me if it could also copy over the Category ID, with a supplied name extension. Thanks.

Steve Taylor, I am having the same issue. I'm really hoping that Yedidia can find some time to work on this, or pass it on to someone else so that it can be further developed. It has GREAT potential.

I was wondering if there is any documentation about using this plugin. I just wish to understand the extension of new courses and old courses as this feature doesn't seem to do anything. Cloned courses are not carrying over the information that I input. It would be great to have some understanding of how this plugin should work. I would appreciate anything at this stage. Thanks.

you did a great job here. I also think the plugin is very important. hopefully it will become a mainstay of moodle in the future. if i understand correctly, moodle (not the plugin) adds copy1 to the course name itself, because the course name cannot be the same twice. The plugin could fix the name before the course is recreated, e.g. replace 2021 => 2022 and then no copy1 would be added by Moodle.

Hello, it doesn't work for me. Ihave a message "your request was inserted into queue, you will get an email while done.". Does anayone have the same message?

Thanks, it works for me. I installed on Moodle 4.2.

It works well but I spot an issue : cohort as enrolment method is not considered. After the duplication that method disappeared from the course. Any suggestion?

bonjour, j'ai un souci avec duplicate category, je complete tous les champs et quand je valide j'ai le message : mise en file d'attente, vous recevrez un email quand cela sera fait, mais rien ne se passe

Hervé, vérifier que cron marche sur votre serveur.
