Description

« Hide

I was checking ~~MDL-6854~~ when I "discovered" some new tables:

- mdl_user_info_field
- mdl_user_info_category
- mdl_user_info_data

They seem to be there in order to support new field for the user profile (or something similar).

The question for this bug is... should all this information be supported by backup/restore? If not, NP. Else...

If I remember correctly Shane said these fields won't be used in 1.7, but will be in for 1.8 ...

Shane, have you had any thoughts about how backup/restore could/should work?

I think we talked about this and decided that

it worked fine already on the same server
didn't make a lot of sense on another server

yes?

Oki, now both user profile fields and user tags are included in backup.

The strategy to restore (tomorrow) will be:

1-Only restore that info (both) when the user is being created.
2-Only restore user profile fileds if there is one profile field with the same name & type in destination server
3-Only restore user tags if tags are enable in destination server.

How does it sound? Ciao

Done, the logic above is now implemented in 19_STABLE and HEAD.

Closing. Ciao
