- Thank you for the welcome. I have been a fan of WeBWorK for a while, but the lack of alignment to our calculus textbook (Larson) and departmental politics have kept me away. Our negative experiences with another proprietary online homework system this last semester have made it easier to come back to WeBWorK.
- Regarding alignment to our textbook, can you tell me the best way to find someone who has already set up a course with our text? It seems like copying someone's existing "debugged" course is the path of least resistance.
- While I have your attention (if I have your attention), the top navigation menu of this wiki is difficult to read on my system—Chrome Version 71, macOS High Sierra (10.13), 27in retina display. Here is a screenshot to show you what I mean: https://i.imgur.com/bk2981y.jpg. (It appears $wgAllowExternalImages is set to false.) --Robert.jacobson 14:47, 29 January 2019 (EST)
