Hi @Sue Busher
I've made the change to your staff dashboard, this works:
<style> div[data-content-uuid="WIDGET_UUID"] .countdown_section:nth-child(2), div[data-content-uuid="WIDGET_UUID"] .countdown_section:nth-child(3), div[data-content-uuid="WIDGET_UUID"] .countdown_section:nth-child(4) { display: none !important; } </style> Graham
 

Hi @Marcus Goluch
This is a tricky one - I've checked but we would not provide any configurations as it can cause issues if not done correctly.  Our advice is to leave Frog as it is, with ports 80 and 443 open directly to the server.  Without these, we cannot provide support or updates.

Hi James
I think this guide should help you:
https://schools.frogeducation.com/community/training/homework/creatingamarkbook
But in a nutshell, if you open the Assignment Menu and choose "Create and Add to Markbook" it will create a markbook and add all assignments which match the subject and class:

 
 

Hi @FrogPG
This is something Admins profiles can help with.  There is an area of System Preferences which allows admins to determine which file extensions different profiles can upload:
https://www.frogeducation.com/community/training/administratortraining/systempreferences/filetypes
 

Almost a year and no issues.  I think it's safe to say we've all moved on

Just tidying up the forum.  I believe this issue was sorted through investigation with the service desk

Hi @Miss Morgan,
I've logged into your school platform and trying to spot the assignment in question.  It looks like most of the assignments have file drops which are allowing students to upload.  We might need to know the name of the assignment to work out any specific issues.
If the students are trying to use FrogSnap to hand in work, then for the moment, only the iOS version allows them to take a photo and send it to an assignment.  The Android version should be released in the next couple of months.  However, students can use MyFrog and their phone's camera to submit photos on both Android and iOS.
If you would prefer, I can drop you a line and we can look into this over the phone.

I've just had a thought about this.  Could you consider using the Noticeboard widget?
When set to hide messages, clicking on the title of the message (set as the question) will reveal the notice (answer).
I keep asking the developers about adding the rich-text editor to FrogCode and keep seeing them turn pale.  I think we could easily add plain text for the question and answer - would that be good enough?

Hi @Chay,
That looks like you'd like a static footer at the bottom of each page.  Are you using a custom theme already, I'd suggest we contacting our design team to amend the theme to include the footer.  If it's a standard Frog theme, I can find out what it would cost for them to create a customised version with this footer.  If you contact Amber, she'll arrange a quote.
I just had a quick attempt at styling with an HTML widget, but it's not simple and would potentially cause other issues.

Hi @Chay
That's true for the Folder setting, but it also works with the site's timeline.  I've edit the site so that the image carousel points to the timeline and only shows images tagged with "frontpage".  I've then made a second page with another image carousel, also set to only show frontpage images, but left the upload button visible - so that as an admin, you have an easy way to add images, and the image carousel widget will tag them for you automatically.

It is for the My Child and My Learning sections.
In Groups and Policies, edit the profile and then expand Apps then expand My Child / My Learning.  In there you can turn off each section.
You cannot hide the assignments or calendar from the main menu though.

That doesn't sound right at all.   I'll create a ticket for you and have one of the support team take a look at what's happening

Yes - it should, but when i visited your platform, it was behaving correctly.  So my guess is it's done by naming... hence if you can tell me where to look, we can see if we can spot the cause.

Hi @pconkie
We've removed that functionality from the MyFrog app, but i think you'd need to look at using the HTML widget to prevent swiping as there is no setting for swiping.

Hi @pdurber,
I think we've answered this in emails and separate posts now.  I'm just clearing up the support section.
If anyone is interested in our current offering, you can find out more here: https://www.frogeducation.com/community/training/office365
There are plans for further integration, but nothing I can be specific about at the moment.

I've also been experimenting with the HTML widget, and this code can be set to email you when someone accesses Frog via IE11:
<script> function GetIEVersion() { var sAgent = window.navigator.userAgent; var Idx = sAgent.indexOf("MSIE"); if (Idx > 0) { // If IE, return version number. return parseInt(sAgent.substring(Idx+ 5, sAgent.indexOf(".", Idx))); } else if (!!navigator.userAgent.match(/Trident\/7\./)) { // If IE 11 then look for Updated user agent string. return 11; } else { return 0; // It is not IE } } if (GetIEVersion() > 0) { var user = FrogOS ? FrogOS.getUser() : this.getUser(); FrogOS.fdp({ url: 'email/sendmessage', path: '/api/fdp/1/', type: 'POST', data: { subject: "Internet Explorer User detected", message: user.displayname+" ( username: "+user.username+" ) accessed Frog via Internet Explorer. You might want to contact them to inform them about it being deprecated.", to: "[YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS]", cc: '', bcc: '', send_individual_messages: false } }).done(function(response) { //console.log("done"); }).fail(function(e) { // Report Error console.log("failed"); }); } </script> You may need to grant Email FDP access in Groups & Policies.
 
The first part of the code uses browser detection / detects the browser using UserAgent 

I use the Action Button's duplicate page feature if i want to copy a page from one site to another.

Hi @pdurber,
this guide might help with email notifications, at the bottom it talks about steps you can take to check your Frog is sending emails: Email Notifications

Hi @pdurber
Happy to give you a proper training session over a screenshare if you like.  But to answer your question - the site list widget will only show you appraisal sites you have access to.  So for a department manager, the page called Appraisals will only list their team.  For you as an admin, it will list everyone's site.

Hi @Chay
Taking a look at the two sites, it looks like you're trying to use the Text widget's link to page to link to another site, unfortunately you cannot do that, as link to page only works within one site.  However, in the Edit panel for each page you can see a direct link to that page.  You could use this, with the Web Link option in the Text widget to link to the other site.

Hi @pdurber
I believe the teacher in question might be Contribute access to the site.  If it's on your staff dashboard, I can see that individuals are listed to have Contribute access rather than the staff profile.  If it is the case they need this shared with them, it might be the member of staff in question is not listed.

The Passwords app was built for Primary schools who didn't have the ability or desire to set up pupil accounts on their network, so it was designed as a simple way to let a classroom teacher reset a password for one of the children in their class.  We made it available for all schools a little while ago, but that's why it is limited.
I had a quick look and didn't spot an idea on the Ideas Portal.

Hi @Becky
You cannot directly assign a video to a student, instead when you assign a quiz, the video appears as a link within that quiz.
Hope that makes sense,
Graham

Hi @pdurber
Location is a type of group, so it's safe to assume that if this is not populated in the MIS currently, (provided you don't start using it in the MIS), you should be able to add your own data to it.  I'd suggest testing it first though (i.e. make a change to a few students, run an MIS import via System Preferences and see if that change remains).  The benefit of this being a group is that you can use various API calls to display the data
Example:
Frog.Model.api('groups.getFor', { identity: child.uuid, group_type: "location" }).done(function(groupResponse) { // do something }); Groups are separated with the export by the | symbol and you'll use a CSV to import them, so that rules out '|' and ',' to add additional variables, but there's nothing stopping you using a different character to separate your data.  This would be more secure than the tutorial I posted which uses an HTML to store all information.  To view student details another student would need to know their classmate's Frog UUID - which is highly unlikely.
Of course, the groups would have to be created first - and unique for each student. - 
MIS Username - I'm not sure - this might be in use and would be overwritten by the MIS if it came into use.
I'd be happy to work with you on this - we might get something other schools could use.
 

Hi @Tinpan
When you talk about wanting to set work and have it not appear to students until the morning of, does the available from date not give you that flexibility?

 
Once assigned, you can edit the instructions, title and classes, as well as dates.
 
EDIT
Apologies, I've just checked your set up, Assign a page is only available in FrogLearn:
However, if you would prefer to prepare assignments in advance and only publish them to students on the morning of, I think the Assign Page function on a site is the closest to the option you describe:
