Re: Move Lesson back into Unit
Thank you - I changed from New to Classic Content and was able to move it back.
Not sure what to do if they take the Classic Content option away though 🧐
Re: Edit Daylight Templates
Hi @Moaz.M.734
I do for our institution, yes!
After adding the files to your manage file area - unzip them. Then, in that managed file area, go to the Daylight_HTML_template then Module tempates (V2) path, or if you are using (V3) Brightspace_HTML_Templates "pages", find the template page you use. I typically either just use the "Elements" page or the Tabs or Accoridon, I edit those and preload them with the logo. What I find is I will make a copy of the "Elements" page, then rename that copy to something I prefer with my edits.
Re: Release Notes Updates
Has anyone encountered issues with the new update to announcements (Aug release) where the announcements no longer dismiss when selecting the x to dismiss?
Re: View default from 20 to 200
Hi @Kellie.R.407,
The Configuration Variable d2l.Settings.PaginationNumbering will need to updated by a system admin in your Brightspace site for the classlist and gradebook. Please note that depending on the number of users enrolled in a course and the number of grade items, the gradebook may not be able to display 200 users at a time to prevent long load times.
Re: Can quizzes reference a pool, rather than copying questions from a pool?
@Luke.D.727 Hi Luke, when you edit a question in the Question Library that is being used in quizzes, there should be a Question in Use screen where you can make sure that it gets updated in all locations. You will need to check the box next to each location, otherwise it will only be updated in the Question Library.
Pools don't actually exist in the Question Library. Only questions and sections can be added there. You create pools within quizzes by choosing a certain number of questions to make up the entire pool, but that pool only exists within that quiz. You may have created a section with questions in the Question Library (intending that section to be a pool) and then added more questions to it there, but you would still have to add those questions manually to the pool in the quiz.
Re: SCORM Object Grade Item
Hi @Sara.D.792
I apologize for the delay- there's a Subject Matter Expert I'm working to connect with to get some more information for you who happens to be ooo at the moment- returning next week.
I will update this thread as soon as I've heard back but wanted to keep you in the loop so you knew I hadn't forgotten about your question
Re: New Thought Leadership Notifications
I just published a blog post on Assignment Ideas using ChatGPT and other AI tools. This post might be helpful for instructors and administrators who are curious about incorporating AI tools into their repository of teaching resources.
Let me know what you think!

Dr. Rajesh Talpade, Senior Vice President Product, and I published a blog post titled Towards a More Equitable Learning Management System Experience with Large Language Models. This post explores common challenges faced by instructors and learners with disabilities online and how we can leverage the capabilities offered by LLM-based technologies to make online teaching and learning experiences more accessible for them.
We welcome your thoughts and feedback!
