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?
