    I really want to use this plugin – seems like it has everything I need. However I’ve tried for hours over many days to get it working without success. I’ve worked through the handbook as well – no luck!
    Setup as follows:
    WP 3.01
    BP 1.2.5.2
    Scholarpress 0.1.1

    The problem occurs when trying to add an Assignment or Schedule. It simply never adds it and goes to a screen that says ‘no schedules’ or ‘no assignments’ The activity screen says that a schedule was added.
    The only thing I could add was books, yet the dashboard says ’0′ bibliographies.

    The video also did not help because it starts with assignments and schedules already added. Could you demonstrate how to start from a completely blank database and the sequence of adding all the items.

    Other things I’ve tried:
    Using the default BP theme.
    Reactivating the plugin.
    deactivating most other plugins.

    Your help will be appreciated

    Hey @ebar, here’s a video where I set up from the very beginning everything.
    Warning 30MB, ogv format, 8 minutes:

    Looks like @andremartin also has a problem setting up Courseware, so I really hope we can solve it.
    Thanks.

    Stas – looked at the full video. Is there any reason to create a second user, as you did with ‘teacher’?

  • Profile picture of andre andre said 1 year, 8 months ago:

    One more thing I noticed – everytime I change the profile to ‘teacher’ it reverts back to ‘student’

    Stas,
    Could you tell me what the database table names are – I want to check what’s happening there.

  • Profile picture of Stas Sușcov Stas Suscov said 1 year, 8 months ago:

    @ebar, there’re no tables, the plugin is only BuddyPress/WordPress API.
    Courses are saved as custom post type, users are users, and roles are managed by Profile Fields from BuddyPress.

    There’s a debugging option, but it will allow you see the post types, nothing else.
    It’s poetry :)

    Back to the issue,
    looks like there’s some problem with roles.
    Is it possible to get somehow access to your setup?
    Or, if you have plugins, and stuff, could you disable them?
    Thanks.

    Also, I created the second user, just to show that roles assignment works. It’s up to you.

    I’ve send you an admin login. – thanks Stas

    I can’t see any custom post types …

    @ebar, can’t find message :(

    @sushkov – posted it again. Please let me know if you’ve got it. Otherwise, simply register on schoolofgrace(dot)net and I’ll upgrade your role.

    @ebar, forward me the message with the password at stas@nerd.ro

    Thanks.

    @ebar, ok looks like devs disabled messages on BP.org.
    And I also didn’t get your e-mail. :(

  • Profile picture of andre andre said 1 year, 8 months ago:

    @sushkov, seems like the email is not going to work! Have you checked your junk/spam folder – might be in there. So to resolve this (without email) please register at schoolofgrace.net and I will upgrade your account to administrator.

    Private Messaging is disabled on here because we haven’t got a spam solution for it yet. We’re trialling something on testbp.org.

    Thanks @djpaul, it’s ok for now.

    @ebar check username: sushkov
    Thanks.

    @ebar,
    the problem happens here:

    http://github.com/scholarpress/buddypress-courseware/blob/stable/courses/bpsp-courses.class.php#L238

    I can’t explain why, get_objects_in_term() is a core function and the parameters it receives, are correct,
    all I can suppose some plugin is doing some nasty things there.
    My advice, rather disable all the plugins, or get a clean install.

    Sorry.
