Situation:
- Have a course with absolute links (exampel: inside book modul content is linked to files which are stored in a hidden coursetopic)
- Took a copy of our course (incl. content, users, gradebook etc)
- The copy is restored in the coursecategory "archived courses"
- The "original" is reset for the new term
Problem:
- Absolute URL´s in the copy still point to "original" course/topic and are no longer available to the students who still have access to the "archived" course but not to the "original"
Questions:
a) someone with a good idea to avoid the problem
b) heard of CMS systems which "transform" absolute links when copying and moving content - could that be possible in Moodlefuture?
