I have a course with a lot of File Resources. These File Resources contain audio files which therefore makes the course very large. Is there a way of backing up a course but excluding the File Resource contents. The contents is pretty static information (audio files, PDF's) so I don't need to back it up on a regular basis. I was considering saving all the content under a separate hidden course which I only backup once. I was then hoping I could then add a "shortcut" (Windows speak) to the content from the active course so that when I backup the active course the actual content is not backed up but only the link reference.
