[Using Sakai] Guest users promoted to student roles

Wed Nov 21 06:12:33 PST 2012

Hi All

In anticipation of the registration fiasco whereby student  registrations  are  delayed for  various reason ie. Travel visas etc. we 've had to accommodate for  guest user accounts on our SAKAI  system, which allows a student a access to course(so as to not compromise their  tuition time as they await  their documentation finalisations etc) .These accounts then expire  after a certain period once their registration are finalised with the guest user changing to that of a student.

We now need to migrate their guest user profile to  that  of a registered student and ensure that any  activity that the student has engaged in online is also  migrated(i.e discussions, assignments submitted  etc).

Has anyone had the need to do something like this and would it be possible to share your  customisations with us please?
As always.... thanks in advance !
