Re: Brightspace Sharepoint
Hi Arman,
For security reasons on the Microsoft endpoint you may not use iframe to embed SharePoint files. This is related to the same-origin policy resource sharing mechanism built into web interactions. I believe LTI, or the OneDrive LTI integration, leverages the cross-origin policy and OAuth to get around these restrictions.
At this point, and as you have highlighted, the alternatives to having the resource open in a new tab, are to use the OneDrive LTI integration; or add the files into Brightspace.
Hope this helps!

Re: Resetting SCORM progress
Hi Sara,
When importing the SCORM package into the Content tool you are presented with the option to enable/disable the review/retake functionality if built into your SCORM package when authored or no.
See
With the option to review/retake enabled the user will see the following message in the UI when accessing the SCORM after having already accessed and completed the SCORM.
If the linked resource does not help you to resolve the behaviour please reach out to the D2L Support team for additional assistance with the issue being experienced.
Hope that helps!
Re: In Classic Content, to insert the SAME image in different HTML pages, what do I choose?
Hi Lynn,
Try the following steps:
- Upload the image file into the Manage Files are of your course.
- When in the content tool, select Upload/Create > Create a File
- Create you HTML file. In the HTML editor select the Picture icon from the editor menu (Insert Image)
- When prompted to Add a File > select Course Offering Files
- Place a tick in the tickbox to the left of the image filename, and select Add
As you are uploading the same image multiple times into the Manage Files area, Brightspace is appending a number to the end of the file so as to not overwrite the existing file.
If you follow the steps outlined above you shouldn't be prompted to overwrite etc. If you are prompted to overwrite this indicates the file has previously been uploaded to your course's Manage Files area so you can start the process from step 2 above.
Hope this helps!
Re: Community Updates
We have added a brand new resource into the D2L Brightspace Learning Center! 🎉
Introduction to Cybersecurity for K-12 School System Leaders
What is the course about?
As technology has become pervasive across K-12 schools, so too has the cybersecurity threat from bad actors to penetrate school systems, hack sensitive data, and hold schools ransom.
This course was developed by D2L and Sinclair College in response to this significant cybersecurity threat, and the need for system leaders to acquire the general knowledge and approaches necessary to protect your community and the continuity of learning.
Participants will learn about cybersecurity threats, mitigation practices, and key steps for breach prevention and response. Interactive activities will help you assess and improve your understanding, while actionable tools and frameworks will support your organization in evaluating and improving your district's preparedness.
Re: Score of quiz verus weighting of assignment
Hi Holly,
One way to manage this is to create a Grade Category to which you can assign a weight.
Enter the weight (%) that you want the category to contribute to the final grade. Grade items within the category contribute toward this weight.

Hope that helps!
Re: Global Announcements - Only on My Home
Hello,
There are several configuration variables that determine how announcements aggregate.
It sounds like the even though d2l.Tools.News.AggregateNewsInOrgUnit is usually defaulted to OFF, this may not be the case in your site.
Best,
Andrea
