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 [...]

Behold! A new version of KB Advanced RSS!!

Now that I’m out of graduate school and working a real job, I rarely have time to work on my plugins. Apologies. I’ve even tried to pass on development of my plugins to others, and have had a handful of qualified volunteers step up. But today I found the time to rewrite the KB Advanced [...]

A Plug for a New Site

This blog is mainly for updates about my WordPress plugins–which, frankly, haven’t had much attention from me lately, since I’m frantically trying to finish my dissertation. But in the meantime, check out AbstractPolitics.com , summarizing the latest research from leading political scientists in an easy-to-read digest. Political scientists aren’t pundits; that is, the point of [...]
