Hi, Paul.
I have seen your patch at SAM-1596 and it could be useful for us, as it
only affects Samigo pools.
However, you say there that it is up to the users to duplicate the
resources from the old site to the new one.
I wonder: how can users access to attachments in site's private
resources to copy them? Do you copy these resources for them?
I have also tested that the option "import from site", when Test &
Quizzes and Resources are selected, replaces URLs in tests to use the
copied content. However, attachments are not copied neither replaced. If
somebody has some local patch that fix this, I would love to take a look
on it.
Thanks.
Best regards.
