We have completed upgrading Voices to the latest version of WordPress. All plugins and themes have also been updated. We also took this opportunity to modify how the Course Sites page displays. All departments and programs will be collapsed when first visiting the page and hovering over a department or program will display its course sites. We hope you find this a welcome change that makes viewing the Course Sites page easier.
Thanks to Dr. Holt we now have two course templates that faculty can select when creating a course. You can view the templates at http://coursetemplateone.voices.wooster.edu and http://coursetemplatetwo.voices.wooster.edu. We plan to add We have added a third based on Dr. Wilson’s course sites http://coursetemplatethree.voices.wooster.edu.
There is one known bug at the moment. When creating a site, if you try to use a course template you will receive an error and the template will not be applied. We have contacted the maker of the New Blog Templates plugin and our working with them to resolve the issue. In the interim you can contact Jon Breitenbucher (jbreitenbucher or 2207) and request to have a course site created using a course template. This does not impact students or anyone creating a site who leaves the template drop down set to None.
