The Blog & User Creater is designed specificially to save time and make it easy for educators to mass create student blogs in batches of up to 15 users.  This feature is available only on Edublogs supporters and Edublogs Campus blogs.

Benefits of the Blog & User Creator include:

  1. Allows you to create blogs in batches of up to 15 users and blogs at the same time, and you can add yourself as a co admininstrator when you create the blogs
  2. The advanced feature provides the ability to set user passwords
  3. Unlike blogs created using the Signup page — the new blog don’t require email verification to activate the new blogs so users can instantly log into their account

Please note:

  • The Blog & User creator is designed to create blogs while creating their usernames — it’s not designed to create just usernames
  • The Blog & User creator does not automatically add your students as users to the blog dashboard that you use to create the blogs — if you want them added to your class blog you will need to use Users > Add Users (refer to the section on Add User Screen in these instructions for adding users to blogs)

Simple Version

There are two approaches that the Blog & User creator allows – first (in the simple version) you can drop in a username which will also function as the blog url and an email address… you can also decide if you want yourself to be added as admin to all of the blogs you create. Users will then be emailed their new blog details / usernames with standard WP random passwords.

Advanced Version

Second, you can try out the more advanced form that allows you to specify different usernames and blog urls, set users passwords, set each blogs titles and decide – per blog – whether you want to be admin or not.
