      1. Start restore of attached file date-shifting-test.mbz
      2. Select to restore to new course
      3. On step 4 Schema, select the start date 7 January 2014. This is 6 days later than the original start date 1 January 2014.
      4. Continue restore with default options

      EXPECTED: There are 2 Page items on the course with descriptions that say what their original date settings were. In Europe/London time zone you should see these dates:

      • Simple example - from 7 Feb
      • Complex example - from 7 March and until end 6 April (unless you are in a specific department).

      Not quite sure how this works with time zones but it should be consistent with the start date.

      BEFORE FIX: Before this fix, the restored backup had the original times for activities (1st of each month) as per issue description.

      Description

      To reproduce...

      1. Create a course and create some conditional activities with date restrictions.
      2. Backup the course
      3. Restore the backup as a new course setting a different start date.
      4. Any dates in the new course will have been updated but the conditional activity dates will be the same as before

      This seems to be a new bug in 2.7 - a regression of some sort
