Re: Release Notes Updates

Hadn't thought about looking for RSS. There isn't any on the discussion itself, but I did find this one on the community page: https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/categories/release-notes-en/feed.rss

Re: Release Notes Updates

My feed reader won't load anything, and it looks like any post in the area comes up. Not super useful.

Ditto on the RSS feed or option for a notification on the D2L release updates only - subscribing to this means every single comment gets a notification, which isn't always helpful when trying to isolate important things.

Re: How do you duplicate a module in the same course?

Thank you!

It is not a pleasant surprise especially to those of us transitioning from LMS platforms that had that capability.

Maybe a moderator could add this to a wish list…🧐

Re: Community Updates

Just Released!

⭐ Get Ready for an Enhanced Community Experience! ⭐

🗳️ We Want to Hear from You - Share Your Feedback or Questions! 🗳️

We're so excited to introduce these new Community enhancements:

Suggested Results display as you type your question to post to Community, helping you find the answer faster

📢 Community Announcement Banners (English Only): Keep up-to-date with essential news through announcements on specific Category pages and within Knowledge Bases.

Banners like the one currently on the Search Page help connect Community Members with helpful updates and information. In this example a blue banner on the Search Results Page reads "Can't find what you're looking for? Post Your Question to the Community" with a link to the Ask A Question Page in Commuity

🕵🏾‍♀️ ASC Homepage Known Issues Automated Search (English Only): Immediately find Known/Fixed Issues that may provide a workaround or a new workflow, speeding up your return to teaching and learning + Brand new ASC Global Search Bar!

Suggested Solutions display on the Case Creation Page for Approved Support Contacts. This tool now includes a separate filter for Known and Fixed Issues Content and displays a numbered count of the articles found ex. 25 known and fixed issues

A Search Bar now appears on the Approved Support Contact Portal to support ASCs in searching across any cases regardless of which filter is on ex. My Closed vs My Open Cases

🚌 Learning Center Course Filters in Community Search via Course Tags (English Only): In search of a course with free downloads open to all? Utilize simple tag filters to find the perfect material.

From the Search Results Page, when viewing Learning Center content results, you can now select Course Tags to find only Higher Education Learning Center Material or material connected to a downloadable resource

Use the Thumbs Up or Down Icons to provide feedback on Community articles and type specific feedback on what you like or dislike about the article

🚄 Quicker Search Loading Times: Your search results page is about to load faster than ever with this update.

🎫 Event Tags for Group or Community-Wide Events (English Only): Identify Group-specific or Community-wide events with ease using the new tags in your search experience.

On the Search Results Page, when you filter for Events, new tags show if the event is specific to a Community Group or intended for a Community Wide audience

💬 Quicker Access to the Best Answers (English Only): Look for the "Accepted" tag on question results to quickly find the most reliable answers to your Brightspace inquiries. You'll also find all comments on questions can be found from your search.

From the Search Results Page, when you filter for Discussions, you'll now see a tag for "Accepted" Answers indicating this is the best answer to the question as voted by the Original Poster and D2L Staff Members

⭐ Persistent Saved Filters: Maintain your selected search filters on the Search Results Page even when switching content sources (e.g., from Articles to Discussion and back), ensuring your filters stay intact.

From the Search Results Page, when you select filters ex. Administrator Documentation from the Article source, flip to Discussions, and then flip back to the Article source, your selected filters will not be erased and your search term will remain in the search bar

What is meant by

In the September 2024/20.24.9 release notes, https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/26499-september-2024-20-24-9#quick-eval-improved-tool-performance-with-enrollment-limits-updated it says the following:

Quick Eval – Improved tool performance with enrollment limits | Updated

To avoid performance issues such as timeouts, users are limited to 1000 explicit enrollments in Quick Eval. If a user is explicitly enrolled in more courses than the limit, activities and submissions are not shown to that user. When the user passes the limit, an alert is displayed warning the user that they exceeded the explicit enrollment limit.

Previously, pages loaded slowly or timed out if users attempted more than 1000 explicit enrollments in Quick Eval.

Can somebody clarify what is mean by "users are limited to x explicit enrollments in Quick Eval"? As far as I know, people can only be enrolled in courses or other org units. Access to Quick Eval is determined by the role assigned. So does this mean that an Instructor (or Facilitator, or whichever roles have grading permissions) can only possess said role in less than 1000 courses or Quick Eval no longer functions for them?
