Upgrading Moodle is a challenge at the best of times. With so many interesting plugins out there (not to mention core itself); any upgrade is sure to have some degree of challenge.

In this presentation Cameron will cover Catalyst's approach for upgrading a huge Moodle installation from 3.9 to 4.1 covering:

  • History of this large site;
  • Overall approach for the upgrade;
  • Codebase audit strategy and techniques;
  • Database audit strategy and techniques;
  • Data and configuration migration strategy and techniques.

Join us for this highly entertaining session, voted number 1 favourite at MoodleMoot Global 2023, as Cameron takes you on their roller coaster ride of a journey to upgrade the largest Moodle in the Southern Hemisphere.
