Thanks for the update, but I'm still a bit confused. Step 1 (Move your
users). I don't know what you mean. The only option seems to be to
remove users from the institution, not to move to a new institution.
That's on the institutionusers.php page anyway. If I remove users from
the institution where are they now? I *cannot* have users being emailed
new login details as that will cause huge confusion. All my institutions
authenticate against the same LDAP server so I "just" want to move to a
different institution which will continue to have the same login
details. Thanks for your patience ;-)

Title:
  Multiple institutions breaks institution move

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  New

Bug description:
  Bug found in 1.6

  Where there are multiple institutions and membership of multiple
  institutions are permitted the bulk move of users from one institution
  to another is broken.

  The bulk move refuses to consider users who are in more than one
  institution. See code in htdocs/admin/users/bulk.php for the function
  changeauth_validate(). The validation simply fails if there is more
  than one institution record for the user.

  So, if I select all users in an institution and them attempt to move
  them to a different institution and there are ANY users in multiple
  institutions in the list the move will fail for all users.

  Worse - I can't think of any obvious workaround.

  What I want is for *just* the institution that I selected to be moved
  to the alternate institution. There would also need to be a check that
  this didn't result in a duplicate if they were in that institution
  already.
