    We have create a bash-script for more backups

    read -p "Path to backup: " -r DIRECTORY read -p "Category-ID:" -r CATEGORYID

    BACKUPS=$(ls $DIRECTORY) array=( $BACKUPS ) for i in "${array[@]}" do cd httpdocs/ echo "" echo "" echo "restored $i" echo "" sudo -u www-data php admin/cli/restore_backup.php --file=$DIRECTORY${i} --categoryid=$CATEGORYID done

    Do you mean a category? You can restore to a category via the command line

    php admin/cli/restore_backup.php --file=/backupfolder/backupfile.mbz --categoryid=20

    And just for reference, backup via command line

    php admin/cli/backup.php --courseid=99

    Or

    php admin/cli/backup.php --courseshortname=mycourse

    Restore via command line
