If you'd like to use tables in your site for displaying data there are a few ways to do this.
|
# The '''TinyMCE Advanced plugin''' lets you add a table tool to the WordPress Rich text editing bar.
#'''Use the WP-Tables Reloaded plugin''' creates really nice looking tables and gives you a pretty good interface for updating content, however, a drawback to using this plugin is that it does not have a rich text editor. Text that is hyperlinked, bold, etc you will need to write the HTML yourself within the plugins editor. One benefit to using this plugin is that your tables will be much more accessible to visually impaired readers. The plugin will add the necessary markup to make the table more sensible to screen readers. '''For more information visit the plugin's website at [https://tobias.baethge.com/wordpress-plugins/wp-table-reloaded-english/ Plugin WP-Table Reloaded]'''
#'''Copy and paste from Word''' (Windows users only) - if your table is already in MS Word, go ahead and select the table and copy. From within your post, a page in WordPress choose the Paste from Word Icon (on the second row - you may need to expand your available editing buttons by clicking the kitchen sink button) and paste into the provided window. Sorry Mac users (this isn't for you).

{{WPTemplate|
The STL Viewer plugin let's you embed interactive 3D models in your WordPress site
|
This plugin is based on [http://bit.ly/2a1En0q], similar to the embed tool used at http://www.thingiverse.com/.

See the plugin in action at the [http://blogs.evergreen.edu/stlviewer/ STL Viewer Demo site].
===Activate the necessary plugins===
The following plugins must be activated in '''Dashboard > Plugins'''
* '''STL Viewer'''
* '''AP Extended Mime Types''' - ''let's you upload .stl files to your media library''

===Apply settings for SLT Viewer===
# From your Dashboard go to '''Settings > STL Viewer'''
# Set the Height and Width in pixels, i.e. 300px. '''Alert:''' If these fields are left blank or not formatted properly the plugin may not work.

* Height: 300px
* Width: 300px
* Object color: #2B56B8
* Background color: #FFFFFF
* Show Controls: checked

===Upload .STL files to media library===
* The plugin will be referencing the file name of each .stl file so make sure they are unique.
* If you get an error saying "Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons" you need to activate the AP Extended Mime Types plugin

===Add the plugin shortcode===
* Create a post or page and add the STL shortcode:

<nowiki>[stl file="http://blogs.evergreen.edu/stlviewer/files/2014/11/blue_rabbit.stl" /]</nowiki>

* Replace the filename with the full path to the FIle URL of your .stl file.
* If you're not sure what the File URL is, go to your media library and look under the Attachment Details for your uploaded file.

[[File:Wp-file-attachment.png|200px|right]]

* View your post to check that it's working
[[File:Stl-viewer-blue-rabbit.png|300px]]

===Control how the model is displayed in the shortcode (optional)===
* add more parameters to the shortcode
<nowiki>[stl file="http://blogs.evergreen.edu/stlviewer/files/2014/11/blue_rabbit.stl" color="#2b56b8" background="#f8f8f8" width="100%" height="640px" /]</nowiki>
* alternatively you can change the default settings

===Troubleshooting Tips / Known issues===
Doesn't work? Try:
* Using the latest version of Chrome for your browser
* Make sure to properly apply the settings in '''Settings > STL Viewer'''
* Will only load the first stl file on a page. Does not support multiple files per page.
* Just says downloading and never completes? Make user you've entered the full URL to the file.

===Criteria for Plugins and Widgets===

Plugin and Widget requests are evaluated on a number of criteria:

*Plugins and widgets must add new functionality to WordPress, they should not replicate built in functionality.
*Plugins and widgets must be stable
*Plugins and widgets are common shared resources. They should be useful for the larger Evergreen wordpress community
*Plugins and widgets should not extend the functionality of a service to make it more like a different service. For instance, plugins should not make the blog service more like a wiki. The wiki service provides that functionality.
*Plugins and Widgets must be actively developed. Plugins that are outdated will not be installed
*Plugin and Widget code must meet web development best practices

When requesting a plugin or a widget, try to provide as much information as possible. If there's more than one plugin that does the same thing, include links to the other plugins in your request. The plugin that you're requesting may work better for you, but one of the others may be more appropriate for everyone.

===To request new plugins:===
#Make sure we don't already have a plugin that has the functionality you need. See [[Plugin Overview]]
#Look through the [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ Wordpress Plugin Directory] to determine which plugin(s) best suit your needs and adheres to the criteria listed above.
#Copy down the name and url of the plugin you prefer as well as those of one or two additional plugins that accomplish the same functionality as your preferred plugin.
#[https://help.evergreen.edu/contact/ac/index Email Academic Computing] and wait. Even if a plugin works fantastically on its own, there's the possibility that it may cause a system crash when combined with another plugin on blogs.evergreen.edu.

===Tips for requesting a plugin or a widget===
#Include the official link from Wordpress.org when it's available.
#When looking for a plugin or a widget, try browsing the Wordpress Plugin Directory or the Wordpress Widget Directory first and reading through user reviews to determine if the plugin in question is of good quality.
#Look for popular plugins first.

Quota Limit - WordPress

2016-07-14T19:25:05Z

Ruijua09:

{{WPTemplate|
Storage space limits on all WordPress sites at blogs.evergreen.edu are set to '''100MB'''. If you find this is not enough space to host your files consider the following options: </p>
|
===Making room for more images===
# Host your images at a free photo service such as http://www.flickr.com/ and then embed your images into your blog posts linking to the images hosted on Flickr.
# Re-size your images down to 600-800 pixels wide or 100-150KB. If you don't have an image editing/management program like iPhoto or Photoshop you can always use free image editing services like http://www.picmonkey.com/. Once you've re-sized your images, replace the large ones on your site with the smaller sized image files.
===Making space for video===
100MB will not give you much room for video. You'll need to host your video files at a video hosting service like YouTube, Vimeo, or Flickr.

Protected Files - WordPress

2016-07-14T19:01:17Z

Ruijua09:

{{WPTemplate|
WordPress at [http://sites.evergreen.edu sites.evergreen.edu] allows you to protect certain files and posts/pages while keeping other areas of your site publicly available.
|
===About Adding Protected Files===
====The most important thing to note about uploading protected files:====
# '''You must upload the file to the Media Library first and set its protection'''
# '''Next you can Add Media link to page'''

===To add a protected file to your page or post:===
# Upload your file to your Media Library: '''Media > Add New''' (check the '''Protect Media Uploads''' box)
# Go to your post/page where you want the link to appear and click the '''“Add Media”''' button to insert the link into your post or page
# Click the Media Library tab to choose your already uploaded file
# Make sure the '''Protect Files''' checkbox is checked
# Set the '''Files access permissions''' to '''Subscriber'''. This will limit access to enrolled students in your course.
# Click the '''Insert into Page''' blue button to add a link to the protected file

[[File:WP-edit-visibility.png | 200px | right]]

===Common Issues===
====My students get a 404 error when trying to access protected files====
This is most likely because permissions were changed on the Media File '''after''' a link to the non-secure location was inserted into a post/page.
: '''Fix:''' Remove the link in your post/page and Add Media again to insert the link to the protected file location. When unauthenticated students access protected files now, they will be prompted to login before gaining access to file.
: '''Best Practice:''' Always set file protection first in the Media Library before inserting into a post/page.

Plugin Overview

2016-07-14T18:14:04Z

Ruijua09:

{{WPTemplate|
Plugins are used to extend the core functionality of WordPress. The majority of plugins are written by WordPress community members and are provided freely to the community. We've pre-selected a handful of useful and popular plugins.
|
Please feel free to take a look and try them out on your site. If you see an interesting feature on a WordPress site that you'd like to reproduce on your own site [https://help.evergreen.edu/contact/ac/index please let us know]. We may already have installed a plugin for it.

===Getting Started===
To use the plugins below you will need to be the administrator for your site.
# After you have logged in, go to the '''Plugins''' tab in your Dashboard. This will show you a list of all currently available Active and Inactive plugins.
# click on the '''Activate''' link to activate a new plugin.
# Note the link to the plugin's home page. This is a great place to get instructions on how to use the plugin.
# Most plugins come with their own '''settings/option page'''. This will usually appear in the '''Settings''' tab in your Dashboard after the plugin is activated or in a separate section at the bottom of all your Dashboard tabs.

===Important===
Only activate those plugins which you are actively using. Plugins consume server resources and sometimes conflict with one another.

===About plugin support===
Please keep in mind that although these plugins may work today, they are not guaranteed by the plugin developers and may not stay current with the latest release of WordPress. We do our best to test all plugins before making them available on blogs.evergreen.edu but they may need to be removed if they pose a security threat or stop functioning after a WordPress update.
===Still didn't find what you were looking for?===
