Hi Gordon

Yep, there has been effort put in to fix this issue in master:

The following patches in master relating to this are:

https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/7014/3

https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/7544/3

https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/7668/2

They will be part of the 17.04.0 release that is expected by the end of
this week

The ideas in those patches should be able to be coped for earlier
versions as the database table structure will be the same

Cheers

Robert

Title:
  Copy page results in loss of view_rows_columns data in MySQL

Status in Mahara:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,

  Is there any progress on the issue described in this forum thread -
  https://mahara.org/interaction/forum/topic.php?id=7584

  Essentially, users copy a page only to discover it becomes blank as a result 
of mySQL transactions being disabled, and the view_rows_columns table ends up 
with missing data. It's possible to script or manually re-populate the missing 
data to recover the lost page artifacts, but this shouldn't be happening at 
all. We've seen this increasingly over the past year, and yesterday it hit a 
student about to submit their final portfolio for grading. Although our IT team 
have been able to recover data the ramifications should be clear to everyone 
working in a high-stakes high-stress educational context.
  This is not a minor bug - it is a timebomb that will undermine the 
credibility of the platform, and could have extreme adverse impact at the level 
of an individual student.
  Regards, Gordon.
