This plugin has so much potential but based on the latest updates, change logs, and lack of responses to issues in github, it is looking like it isn't being maintained, am I correct? I know a lot of developers do so in their spare time so I'm not complaining just inquiring.
I'm learning all about this plugin, right now. It's blowing my mind.
I see that you cannot delete the backups, but someone has requested it as an enhancement. I'd vote for that!!!
I created a simple workflow with a manual trigger and one step that creates a backup of the course. For some weird reason I get many copies of the backup, even though I've requested it only once and they are all dated Wednesday, 31 December 1969, 4:00 PM.
I also cannot seem to get the icon to work on the trigger setup. I've using '/pix/i/repository' as well as 'core/repository' but neither work for me.
Hey Nico,
thanks a lot. smile
Currently, there is no subplugin available that is able to do what you want.
You can have a look at https://github.com/learnweb/moodle-tool_lifecycle/wiki/Documentation-for-Developers
There is the documentation, how you can write your own subplugins. However, some of the most recent features of the subplugin API is unfortunately not yet documented.
You might want to have a look at other subplugins, how they solve problems. The list of currently maintained subplugins is here:

Hey Tobias
Thank you for this great plugin!
In the description you mentioned the plugin can automatically set an end date for courses. I did not find a corresponding setting / step to do so.
So how do i set up a Workflow which sets the end date for courses in a category?
Best wishes
Nico
