Moodle Upgrade

Keeping your installation of Moodle up to date is important because it insures your website is not hacked through a known vulnerability in Moodle. Moodle says that upgrading regularly is one of the basic recommendations for keeping Moodle secure. If your Moodle installation has already been hacked we can clean it up and then upgrade it. In addition to making sure your website is secure, new minor releases fix bugs. Major releases, i.e.: going from version 1.9 to 2.0, add new features. The current versions of Moodle are 1.9.15, 2.0.6, 2.1.3, and 2.2 (check what version you are currently running). If you prefer not to upgrade it yourself, we can do it for you following the proper upgrade procedure. We will also upgrade any out of date modules or plugins that are installed.

Once the upgrade has been completed, we test the website to insure the upgrade has not caused any issues. We can usually upgrade your Moodle installation in a day.
