<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> We installed v1.8 and still can only
have blogs seen by either the owner or everyone on the site. No option to
restrict to the course participants.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I will keep you up to date with any
progress.</FONT></DIV>

doesnt is gone with the version 1.8 upgrade.<BR>> Instead there are some
