Hi, thanks Piers, this is a great plugin for us but we're having some issues.

The first of these is we have old backup zips from M1.9. If we import these manually using frontend restore we get option to include/exclude blocks/activities. This would be really useful added to the interface for your tool and as an option in the csv file. I had a brief poke around in docs, looks like there is a settings array for the controller https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=194308

Hi - Yes I think this can be done, but it is likely to be a complicated set of options that need to be passed. There would need to be some careful thinking about how far to go with this as it can be highly specific to each plugin.

Cheers, Piers Harding.
