Hello

we are looking how to archive submitted portfolios in a group for the institution. The university  would like to archive all submissions after giving feedback  at the end of the term. What is the best option for this?

Export files normally are created with id number in the file name. It would be great that export files include the user name. Is there a simple solution for this?

Hi Ralf,

Have you looked at the group archived submissions in the Mahara manual? 

Steps #8 and #9 (see the screenshot) of the group settings page are related to submissions.

The resulting CSV (#13 in the screenshot) for 'Export all data in CSV format' includes a column for paths of files. All submissions are stored in the "submission" folder in your Mahara data directory on the server.

While we don't have an interface to adjust the name for the export files, you can change the code to export files that include the username, at line 20 of htdocs/export/download.php.

Kind regards,

Doris
