I am experiencing a few "growing pains" moving from Moodle 1.9 - 2.2 when it comes to file management. I understand that uploaded files are handled quite differently in Moodle 2.2, but my main question is this:
Are uploaded files to Moodle 2.2 saved when conducting a course (private) backup?
I create a certain file/folder structure for each course that I set up in Moodle, so I would just like to make sure that all uploaded files are being saved as well. With Moodle 1.9, I could easily verify this through FTP. But with Moodle 2.2, there doesn't seem to be a way to view uploaded files using FTP (correct me if I'm wrong).
Any advice or links regarding this matter are greatly appreciated.
PS I just backed up a new course in Moodle 2.2, then uploaded several files to this same course, did a backup, and received a message saying that not all files were backed up or will be able to be restored. This is precisely my concern!
