Hi David, My understanding is that bulk upload is typically discouraged because each upload needs to have at least one context (context of a course, assignment, etc) whereas a bulk upload simply throws all files into a folder. Having said that, here's what I found. http://www.moodleblog.org/?p=178 Both the video and the comment on this page points to the same caution of bulk upload. Maybe Martin can point to something better? cheers, Sameer > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Sameer Verma > Sent: Monday, 5 July 2010 5:06 p.m. > To: Joenson Nithan > Cc: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Server-devel] How to access site files quickly? > > On Sun, Jul 4, 2010 at 5:03 PM, Joenson Nithan <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hello, >> >> We're setting up a server in Kosrae, FSM.
