Straighterliner website bugs - posabsolute - 08-14-2017
Just needed to say it,
Straighterline websites has a lot of bugs, I'm sure the business logic for calculating grades are fine, but still,
I click on resume course, it sends me to the wrong course,
I receive an email to continue composition 2, it shows my final grade from composition 1 instead,
I click back there is an alert popup with an undefined (for days now)
This is a bit weird..

Yeah, I've had major glitches as well and their support and followup has absolutely sucked. My experience has been so bad I would rather take my business elsewhere (like Davar) even if that meant having to study and pay a little more.
I've been going back and forth with them since the August1st because I'm missing an entire section from my navigation panel and I'm unable to see my grades section at all. I'm literally having to manually go assignment by assignment just to caculate my course points, which is a major pain for the economics course. It took over a week for them to even acknowledge the glitches and they've offered no solution yet.

I've actually had an issue with that as well. If you go into a class you will see the My Moodle clickable link. If you click that then you click Customize This Page a box will pop up listing the courses. On the left of the course is a triangle if you click that it opens a drop down and it shows a link to the grades section. It's a huge pain, but its a lot better than going into individual assignments.
I just joined Straighterline on July 20th and planned on using them for a LOT of courses. Now I'm busting my butt so I can finish the courses I purchased and use another service. This has been a pain.

I too have had similar issues.
I'd like for them to just show the courses in progress, and I'd like for it to dump me out where I left off, and sometimes it sends me to Moodle instead of directly into the class.
(shrugs) I still like the fact that they seem to be the only educators where the classroom portion helps me to carry the final, so I've lived with it. Just trying to work up the nerve to do a couple Study.com classes to be eligible for the discounts now...
