KB Gradebook help

Kyle Jones created a very helpful video tutorial explaining how to use KB Gradebook and demonstrating its features. Check it out.

I haven’t updated this plugin since releasing it some time ago. The reason is simple: I no longer use WordPress for course websites. Instead, I use a custom syllabus editor that I wrote, with grade viewing (basically the same code as this plugin) integrated. But although wp.org tells you that this plugin is only tested through WP 2.5, I hear that it still works just fine in more recent versions of WordPress.

    I have problems with the plugin. When my CSV file is a single record, works fine, but when my file has more records get the following error: “There is no grade information available for this course. Since there was as of the last step, it’s possible that another user is also working on your grades right now”

    I hope they can help me please.

    We ran into the same issues and unfortunately had to disable the gradebook. I wish I had more knowledge of plugin development to try to troubleshoot this wonderful plugin.

    I have installed kb gradebook on several separate installations of wordpress on different servers – and I consistently find the following behavior. When first downloading a course it shows a window displaying what was sent out – but the emails are never received. However if I attempt to login to the course grades and ask it to send me my email password I do receive the password in my email.

    Do these two parts of your plugin send email in different ways?

    I was having the same problem as Kyle and Kevn1801, and was very disappointed because I love the plugin.

    After a great deal of troubleshooting, I THINK I have solved the problem. It occurs when there is an apostrophe in any of the cells of the uploaded spreadsheet. Eliminate those apostrophes, and everything seems to work fine. I’ll be doing more testing to be sure, but that’s at least some preliminary good news.
