Hi Pablo,<br>
<br>
I realized that the links on the homepage were pointing to the old pages. I updates the links at <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/EduBlog" target="_blank">wiki.laptop.org/go/EduBlog</a>. Please let me know if that resolves the first issue you mentioned.<div class="Ih2E3d">
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>

Hi Tarun.<br>
<br>
I'm afraid some things in EduBlog are not working as they should when working in an XO.<br>
<br></div>
I downloaded the last BrowseNew, which has the new homepage, that is ok. When I go to the "Create new blog" link (<a href="http://edublog.venango.org/test/EduBlog/moodle/course/modedit.php?add=oublog&type=&course=3&section=0&return=0" target="_blank">http://edublog.venango.org/test/EduBlog/moodle/course/modedit.php?add=oublog&type=&course=3&section=0&return=0</a> <<a href="http://edublog.venango.org/test/EduBlog/moodle/course/modedit.php?add=oublog&type=&course=3&section=0&return=0" target="_blank">http://edublog.venango.org/test/EduBlog/moodle/course/modedit.php?add=oublog&type=&course=3&section=0&return=0</a>>), it takes me to the moodle login in spanish, so far so good.<div class="Ih2E3d">
<br>
<br>
Then if I try to login with the user teacher, it takes me to an error message that says: "This course doesn't exist", and a "Continue" button. When I press it, it goes back to the home page. The same happens if I login with the user teacheres. If then I go again to the "Create new blog" link, I can see the courses page, but it's not possible to create a new course, there is no link or option for this.<br>
<br>
Another problem I found trying to create a new user: I could fill in the registration form, but it never sends me the confirmation email, so I can't finish the process.<br>
<br>
Other strange behaviour in the XO, is that the "logout" option never appears in the top-right of the page.<br>
<br>
I'll try to go on testing, but so far the administration is not working from the XO...<br>
<br>
Saludos,<br>

Hi Pablo,<br>
<br>
The version downloadable from:<br>
<a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/EduBlog_Instructions" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/EduBlog_Instructions</a> under the heading<br>
"For Those with Build 656" has the new homepage. Please let me<br>
know if it works.<br>
<br>
About, the lang settings, when you go to any of the pages it<br>
should be spanish (assuming your xo is using the spanish<br>
localization). If that does not work, then I will force the<br>
setting to spanish and not try to detect the localization.<br>
<br>
About multiple users, I was thinking that in a real school each<br>
teachers and students have their own account. Then, they can do<br>
concurrent things without issues. My concern is that for the test<br>
it looks like we are going to use the same user account for<br>
everyone which can cause problems. If we can create separate user<br>
accounts for all the teachers and students testing, that would be<br>
ideal.<br>
<br>
Thanks for taking the time to test this stuff out.<br>

Hi Pablo,<br>
<br>
I tried to address most of these concerns in the updated<br>
version.<br>
Please let me know if I got the attempted fixes right.<br>
<br>
<br>
I'll try to take some time this afternoon to test the system.<br>
What I found with the previous version is that BrowseNew<br>
didn't change its homepage. I talked with Greg that it would<br>
be very simplifying for teachers and children to make<br>
BrowseNew go straight to <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/EduBlog" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/EduBlog</a>, a<br>
page I will get some time to finish with the instructions to<br>
start to work. Would it be possible to change this?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I'm also thinking about how to configure the language.<br>
Currently,<br>
it detects if the Browser is es or en and bases its setting on<br>
that. We could also change it to force es not matter what.<br>
Which<br>
do you think is better?<br>
<br>
For us, both possibilities are good if they work well ;-)<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Another concern I have is that if testers login at the same<br>
time<br>
with the same username, it may break things. Is this<br>
something to<br>
worry about, or will the system be tested by one person at<br>
a time?<br>
<br>
Well, this may be a real problem working in a real school. The<br>
normal workflow is that the teacher proposes something to work<br>
in and blog about it, then children start to work<br>
altogether.... what problems may happen?<br>
