In the category of little scripts that can make your life easier when managing huge Chamilo portals, this is a little one that creates one tasks-folder called “ALP” for the “Assignments” (work) tool in each active course for a portal where you have thousands of sessions, with one course per session.
The script works for version 1.9.8 of Chamilo, but might need some adaptations to run on an older version, in particular considering the addDir() function from the main/work/work.lib.php library which was created there recently.
You should put the file into any “one-level” directory under the Chamilo base, so that it can find “../main/inc/global.inc.php”, and then run it on the command line using php5-cli, or load it from a webserver accessing it directly by its path.
