John-

That's great that you are installing Lyceum in a k-12 environment. This is one of our favorite applications.

Question: do you want the students to be able to register themselves? Or are you going to be creating all of the accounts yourself?

If it's the latter, then i think the best solution would be for you to use a stock lyceum with nothing changed, EXCEPT the unique requirement on email in the database and in the signup process.

does that sound like a good solution? if so, i will put together a wiki page outlining how to achieve this. let me know.

I have just installed Lyceum and have finally gotten things to work. As an
Admin, I can log in, change my profile, etc.

My next step is getting users into the system to begin blogging.

Here¹s my catch: my users will not have e-mail addresses. What I¹d like to
do is have each user use my e-mail address to register, or for me to produce
a text file to mass-upload.

Seemingly, Lyceum uses this to create the initial password. I have modified
wp-register.php to not check e-mail (by commenting-out lines 186-190) but I
still got a generic error to contact the webmaster.

On line 208, I removed $email from the parenthesis, and this generates these
users in the DB, but when I get the e-mail, no password is created.

In a sense, I solved one problem, and created another.

Is anyone else in the situation I am in‹accounts without passwords in a K-12
environment? Or is there another solution?

Thanks for reading!
