FAQ
-
How are student accounts created?
-
When adding a student who is not already a WordPress user, a new user account is created automatically. The username is set to the first initial of their first name concatenated with their last name and a string of digits (all lowercase). A random password is generated.
-
Can I add existing WordPress users as students?
-
Yes. Enter the user’s existing username (user_login) when adding a student. If the username exists in the database, the user is added to the gradebook without changing their credentials.
-
How do students view their grades?
-
Students log in to WordPress and navigate to the GradeBook menu item. They will see only their own grades for courses they are enrolled in.

Just about what i needed for my LMS courses. It lets the admin and other roles assigned by the admin to add gradebooks for the courses they created. Big ups for the additional assignment feature too!

This plugin is in my eyes the simplest way to add a free gradebook to your wordpress website. I had some troubles to get it working, but the developer offered amazing support to get my gradebook operational. My students and I are extremely happy with Aori his efforts.
