[ARCHIVED] Duplication of module from one course into the other only duplicates the template, not the created content. Why?

[marye_staub]

I'm trying to copy the modules I've created for one course (course A) and import them into a second course (course B) that I am teaching (I am teaching two sections of the same course).

I've followed the instructions on 'importing course content' and selected specific content to import. I've selected the modules from course A and 'imported' them into course B. 

However, when I do this, course B only imports the template versions (unedited, without any of the content I created for course A) of the modules, resulting in duplicate templates for each module. 

What am I doing wrong? Why isn't it importing the content I created including text, links, materials etc? 

THanks very much.
