Re: Release a bespoke Navbar to all courses in a department
I don't think I ever quite did that. I think I only ever amended the existing navbar that was used (which is much easier), rather than replacing one navbar with another.
Re: Re-structuring semesters in Brightspace
This is a fairly common way of "archiving" offerings without removing them from Brightspace. There will be no impact other than relabeling their semester parent. If it makes it easier for you to locate resources and clean up the My Courses widget, then it's a good move.
Re: Release a bespoke Navbar to all courses in a department
Hi Mary! I think there might be a way that this can be achieved, but I don't think you'd currently have access to the tool on your Brightspace site. I think it needs to be requested. I'll bring it to your CSM's attention so that they can look into the options with you.
Re: Did you employ the Customer Service Chatbot? How did it go/is it going?
Thank you both for your responses, very good to hear about your experiences! We might well be in touch over the Summer as we move through our BrightSpace launch 😀
Re: Feedback on recent changes to the PIE
Thanks for looking into this Tommy.
My comment re "editing one's own idea" related not to the ideas themselves but rather to the comments underneath them. I believe I was previously able to edit my comments after posting.
Re the "Likes", I believe there used to be an "upvote" option for individual comments not just for the idea itself; one of the icons as part of the iconset for each post.

Hey @Mike.B.559,
Thank you for this feedback about recent changes to the PIE. We want to keep improving your PIE experience and it's feedback like yours that makes a big difference and helps steer us in the right direction. I have connected your feedback with our experts leading these efforts and you should hear from them shortly. In the meantime, if you have additional feedback, we'd love for you to share in our Community Feedback discussion.
Re: Feedback on recent changes to the PIE
Hi @Mike.B.559,
Thank you so much for reaching out to us about these changes!
The updates to upload images were not intended and thanks to your note we were able to track down what led to that change and revert it. You'll see the option to add attachments is now back in place.
The option to edit your own idea is also now back in place.
We're still working on likes- can you help us a bit more with this one by sending a screenshot of where you're expecting to see the like option? That will help us to confirm that we're both looking at the same option in the same part of the user interface.
Thanks again!
Tommy
