विवरण
The Class Blogs plugin is meant to simplify the process of blogging as a class.
It accomplishes this by making it easier to find, organize and analyze the
work created by your students. The functions available to you to make this
happen are provided and categorized below.
Widgets
If you are running WordPress in multisite mode, these widgets are only available
on the main blog. If you are unsure about what this means, you don’t need to
worry about it. The available widgets allow you to display the following:
- Recent student posts.
- Recent student comments.
- A tag cloud built from the tags used on your students’ posts.
- YouTube videos embedded in your student’s posts.
- An image randomly taken from your students’ posts.
- Links to view posts by each of your students.
Teacher Admin Pages
The Class Blogs plugin adds pages that will be visible only to you whenever you
log in to the administrative side of the blog. These pages allow you to perform
the following actions:
- View a table of all student posts, sorted by date.
- View a table of all student comments, sorted by date.
- View word counts for all student posts and comments, broken down by week.
- Add links to all student blogs if running in multisite mode.
- Optionally disable comments on all current and future posts.
Student Admin Pages
The Class Blogs plugin adds pages that will be visible to each student whenever
they log in to create content. These pages allow students to do the following:
- Create a pseudonym by changing their username and full name.
- See how many words they have written for the current week.
Other
In addition to the above plugins, the Class Blogs plugin provides a few
additional features that do the following:
- Add a link to create a gravatar to the bottom of each user-activation email.
- Set a student’s first and last name based on their email address.
- Automatically approve all comments left by students on other students’ blogs.
Themes
This plugin also includes a theme that takes advantage of the above features
to display information on your students’ posts in a clear, easy-to-navigate manner.
Instead of showing posts sorted by date, the main page displays recent student
posts grouped by student, with students having newer material appearing first.

प्रश्नोत्तर
- Can I use this if I’m not running WordPress in multisite mode?
-
While this plugin works best when running WordPress in multisite mode and giving
each student their own blog, it will run just fine if you have a single blog and
are adding students as users with limited permissions.
