Ok, I’ll check it again for date-picker.

Hey,
it’s been reported already, but thanks again.

Reports (of all kind) are not yet implemented. Courseware lacks a good set of report tools, which are on the todo list.
See this ticket:
https://github.com/scholarpress/buddypress-courseware/issues/39

Wow, thats really cool! 🙂

Hi @johngieser,
Bibliography is actually like a library, and you can link items from that “pool” to courses/assignments. So yes, Bibliography is a global thing.

This decision was taken, to eliminate duplicates and not overuse the web API we fetch data from.

Ok, I can see what’s the problem.

Please read this thread, it should guide on how to fix it:
https://buddypress.org/community/groups/buddypress-courseware/forum/topic/courseware-sub-nav-missing-with-custom-theme/

P.S.: Sorry for the delay, been busy for a while.

@chaoti, looks like the theme you use, doesn’t use the header/footer hooks correctly to include the JavaScript files Courseware has.
If you can link me (maybe privately) to the theme you use, I might have a look, though, I’m almost sure the issue is what I said already.

Thanks for using Courseware! 🙂

Yep, assignments are tied to a group using a custom taxonomy, where it’s name is the group ID.

I know @djpaul did some integration on that side, though, to be hones, I never got a chance to check it, and yes it looks like a new release is being planned for some time…

I like the idea, since I would like to see Courseware not depend on BuddyPress one day, and ToDo lists are a good alternative to messages!

Thanks.

@imjscn, I got it now.
In a nutshell you want every student to have some kind of “Vimeo save for later” option for courses/asignments/bibliography. And that can be called a TODO list. Same for teacher, but the difference is that his “queue” will be public and students could subscribe/add items from it.
Right?

@imjscn, could you write it down in details so I can open an issue and get back to it when I get some time (it is still a bit unclear for me :|)?
Thanks.

@wescleveland, btw, whatever happens with Courseware, I will be happy to assist you in writing that tool. You can start by forking the github project and do changes, if you have questions, just query me. Once it’s done I can make a merge.

Thanks.

@wescleveland hi, I agree with the workflow you explained, though lots of people do not think the same, and that was my main concern about “cloning” tool. Right now, I’m trying to get Courseware accepted for another summer of code from Google, if it works, in a couple of months there will be a 1.0 release […]

Thank you and keep in touch 🙂

1. Confirming this. This was probably introduced with the new internal content linking feature, which is useless in Courseware and will have to be reverted back to original functionality. Issue added #40 https://github.com/scholarpress/buddypress-courseware/issues/40 2. About Bibliography, there’s a button in the right menu, called Bibliography…[Read more]

Hi and thanks for your feedback. About due dates, even if you can see them there and use them, that doesn’t mean due dates will work as expected (like blocking user to add content after an assignment expires or sort of). Removing due dates means you want customization, that can be done, but it’s out […]

It’s simple, they don’t. There’re no BuddyPress roles and will likely never gonna be. The Courseware follows BuddyPress implementation and the only thing it uses are additional capabilities to manage post types. Here’s an example hook Courseware uses to update the caps for a new teacher:…[Read more]

Also working with users is way easier in WordPress 3.1.
To see if a user is editor, you can just get_users() with 'role' => 'editor' and 'search' => $user_id/$username.

Hmm… I think you can just extend current code: https://github.com/scholarpress/buddypress-courseware/blob/master/roles/bpsp-roles.class.php#L90 And if that user is Editor, to not hide the Teacher option from him. Or, add a new button in /members/ page listing that will upgrade user to Teacher. Whenever method you choose, your code should call…[Read more]
