Motivation

This feature will promote the reuse of courses by allowing eduCommons courses to be imported into WordPress. It will also allow WordPress content to be imported into eduCommons.

Proposal

Support Import of course into user specified WordPress account as well as support export of 'wordpress course' into eduCommons

 

Implementation

Given the time constraints this feature will not import associated image/file resources as objects. It will bring over HTML, parse through, ensure any relative links are rewritten properly but the resources will still 'live' in the base environment. Additional time would be needed to import any associated files as separate resources.

Deliverables

code and unit tests

Risks

(see implementation)
