Adam:

Are you duplicating a site from within Site Info tool?

If so, SAK-14758 "Duplicating Site from Site Editor leaves content referencing old course site" should help. And it should be in 2.6.0 already.

Thanks,

- Zhen

Has anybody done any work on automatically replacing references to siteIDs when copying a site and its resources.

The problem we have is that staff use either the site description or syllabus to link to materials in resources and when a site is copied, these references still point back to resources in the old site.

I was thinking that non binary files & description etc) could be passed via a string substitution process to update siteIDs. Does this sound like a feasible approach?
