Re: D2L is Reheating PIE!
Can I make a suggestion that placing brand new submissions in a category of "NOT UNDER CONSIDERATION" in upper case red text feels totally counter to what I understood to be the purpose of PIE, and unnecessarily dismissive of the genuine pain points with the platform that clients are sharing with you.
It feels like a red reject stamp has been put on the idea before the community has had a chance to comment on whether this is also an issue for them.
A rewording to something like "Awaiting community feedback" (and not in red text) would better aligned with what I understood PIE to be about, and more respectful to people who are taking the time to share their ideas.

I was working updating my discussion and assignments and the content of my course is now blocked
The above message appears every time my students or I go to course CONTENT;
Any idea of what has happened or what can be done? My IT is working on it but never saw this before…
thanks

Re: Setting Link Default for Hyprlinks Copied in from a Word document?
Thanks, Stefanie!
The D2L Support Team helped me find a bit of a workaround with copying the links from within the online Microsoft Word browser instead of from within the Microsoft Word desktop app. For whatever reason, the "open in new window" is retained when copying from the browser instead of the desktop.

Re: Limiting Dual Submission When Using Release Conditions for Midterm/Final Pairing
Hi Kendra,
Thank you for reaching out with this question.
Based on what you shared, I would suggest adding release conditions to both midterm assessments and using the following condition type: Quizzes, No completed quiz attempt.
For instance, in the Midterm Essay, select Midterm Exam as the quiz under Condition Details. With this, both assessments will be visible initially, then once a student completes the Midterm Exam, the Midterm Essay will be hidden.
If using assignments, the same can be achieved using this release condition: Assignments, No submission to folder.
I hope this helps!🙂
Thank you,
John

SSO restricting complete logout
Our students and faculty connect via SSO - In our lab space on public machines, when students sign in, they cannot fully log out when they use the log-out feature. Another student logging on to Brightspace from the same machine will be brought to the prior user's account. The only way to correct this is to log off the browser or fully clean the cache. This is problematic in our simulation center when our students need to use two browser-based applications at once. Using Incognito or a different browser type does not fix the problem. Since this is a simulation lab, there is a short window of time between students, and killing both programs just to clear the cache is not sustainable. Is there a fix for this issue? I saw a similar writeup here from 2020

Re: SSO restricting complete logout
Hi clilly.c,
By default, the Brightspace logout action ends the Brightspace session only and sends the user to the value specified in the OrgLoginPath configuration variable. Typically this is the Identity Provider (SSO) sign-in URL.
You can specify a logout redirect URL which overrides this behaviour to ensure that the user isn't simply signed back in. This URL can be any URL. Some clients redirect the user to a page notifying them to close all open browsers.
If available, you can configure the logout redirect URL to your institutions IdP logout URL if the IdP has one available (these exist for ADFS, Azure, Okta, and possibly others).
Also important to note that our implementation of SAML does not support Single Logout (SLO).
If you need any assistance with any of the above please open a case with the D2L Support team who can assist you in making the changes.
Hope this helps!

Re: How to edit Learning Path?
Hi @Avinashdeep.K.637 ,
I have reviewed your query and found some useful information regarding this option.
Please refer to the article: Access Learning Paths from the My Learning Widget
The Continue button links directly to the first uncompleted module in the learning path. I believe this is an important functionality for the users to access the learning path and link them to the uncompleted modules.
If you can specify your use case related to this request, then I can reach out to our team for the best feasible solutions.
Let us know your feedback. I'll be happy to assist you further.
