Ok Crew Mahara, I am having a similar problem in 1.3rc. I started
exporting at 12:27 and it is now 13:26 and still spinning like crazy.

Another suggestion, does it make sense to have some of button or a link
that a user can click on if they decided to change their mind from
exporting an entire portfolio to exporting a view.

Status in Mahara ePortfolio: Incomplete

Bug description:
Where are the portfolio export files stored? Apparently (https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/547782) they are stored somewhere.

Could they be retrieved if the export fails? I generated an export, but disconnected from the internet before the download was finished. Since then I have not been able to download an export again. When I try to generate another export (a couple of hours later, a day later), it usually does not do anything but just say "Transferring...". After about a week, the progress bar in the export moved and I got the link to "Continue". However, there was no file offered for download.

It would be good to have access to these files for a day or so before they are deleted or like Moodle does, put them in the home directory of the user. However, that takes away portfolio space.
