    Hello, I want to copy some courses from my test site to the production site with https://prnt.sc/11w2vga. The XML file is generated and downloaded perfectly. But when I import it to the new site nothing happens, what can I be doing wrong? Thanks, regards

    Please refer the screenshot for the settings : http://prntscr.com/9hkpgh in the Lms -> settings -> import/export . this will export you 10 courses . you can choose the start point and end point settings . First export 10 courses then the start and end points settings will be 0 and 10 resp. It will export first 10 courses . then for next 10 courses export you can change the start and end settings to be 10 and 20 resp.

    Hi Diana, I did exactly as indicated but when importing the cvs in the new site, nothing happens. I imported the sample cvs (Full_course.cvs) and I was able to do the course import. Comparing the files I see that the contents are similar, except that the Spanish special characters do not look right: "finalización" or "estática", can this be a problem? This is the generated file: http://acaneb.org/acaneb/export_course_341.csv Regards,

    I have replaced all the Spanish characters with problem by their English equivalent (á x a, ñ x n, etc.) and the course importation does not work either. Here is the new cvs: https://www.acaneb.org/acaneb/curso.csv The strange thing is that a message appears saying that the import was completed: https://prnt.sc/121tcbo What is wrong with the file? Regards,

    Hi Diana, Thanks, I changed the DB table prefix and I could do the import of the structure and some course contents, now I have to upload photos, video, scorm units, etc. that are hosted on my test site. As the course author appears "student" https://prnt.sc/123get5 how can I change it to my name? Thanks, regards.

    I have to upload photos, video, scorm units, etc. that are hosted on my test site. --> You can take your webhost help in this Course Author Create a admin/instructor account and edit the course in the backend, at the end you will find option to set author, set the course author there and then update the course
