Online Grades & Attendance

Hello from Online Grades!

The 3.2.1 version is currently in development. In addition to several small bug fixes from 3.2.0 the major addition we are currently working is improved tools for deleting, editing, and managing student, teacher, and parent accounts. In addition these tools will help manage viewing a removing the course and grade data in Online Grades. You may find these tools useful late spring/early summer, which is when the new version should be available.

***One requirement for these new features to work will be to have MySQL version 4.1 or higher.*** To generate some of the new information we are using sql subqueries, which were introduced with in MySQL with version 4.1. Please check your server or hosting setup now so that you are prepared when new new features are available. If you need help feel free to post to the forums.

There has been some interest in a file upload/storage facility built into Online Grades. This would allow teachers to upload assignments for students to download if they have lost their copy of the assignment. If this is something your school is interested in please consider if you or someone on your staff could help with the planning (ideas, rough layouts), development (writing the php code), or testing. See Feature Request # 1179210 at
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1179210&group_id=127473&atid=708662 for more information about the request and feel free to make comments there or in the forums.

Sourceforge.net had problems with their CVS (development file storage/revision control) for several weeks but these have now been resolved and so it is now again possible to download the current development version of Online Grades via CVS. See http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=127473 for more information and feel free to post to the forums or email if you need help.
