Re: LOR - Broad Overview and Explanation?
Hi Brock,
So glad to hear it helped. You are correct that the trust is more than just roles/permissions - very much like another layer.
I have set up a number of repositories (a long, long time ago) and delivered a few training sessions on the LOR in my past role as a trainer. I have also attended an LOR training session when I was learning about the product and found it helpful.
Best,
Dana

Re: when is the portfolio tool available
Hi @Robert.D.399 ,
Thanks for reaching out to the Brightspace Community. In this case, I'd recommend connecting with your institution's administrator to see if the portfolio tool is a configuration they have turned on.
I'm linking to documentation for how to turn on the Brightspace Portfolio tool, in case it's handy.
Impact of deleting Course Templates
For every study program we have created a course template and when we create course offerings for a study program we use the study program's template as course offering template. Over the years new study programs come and some go.
Now I was wondering what the impact on linked course offerings when we remove templates for study programs which are no longer offered at our institution.
I did some testing and this is what I found.
After removing the course template the course offering remained fully available for students and teachers.
For administrators it was no longer listed/findable under Course management but they could still find it it in the Org Unit Editor
Within the course offering under "Course offering information" no template and department were listed. This is logical because the template was deleted and the department was linked via the the template.
None of these findings are real problems but I was wondering if there are more or hidden problems.
To want to keep our environment clean and free from old data we no longer use like templates for old study programs but we also have to deal with a retention obligation for the content of old courses. This is why I want to know if we can expect issues when we delete course templates. Especially because based on the API documentation providing a template seems to be required when creating a course offering.

Quiz Retake View
I teach math and have multipart questions. I have done this by creating Sections with multiple questions related to each other - part (a), (b), (c), in essence. If students get part (a) correct, it is often relevant to part (b). But with the setting "On new attempts, only allow answers for previously incorrect questions", questions that were correct are not seen on the retake. Thus, if they got the part (a) correct on a previous attempt, they don't have that information to help them with part (b).
Is there any way I can adjust the setting so you can see the previously correct answers when re-taking a quiz? Or are there any other suggestions on how to structure the quiz to achieve the multipart questions?
Thanks in advance!
