One instructional designer encounters slow loading times for their HTML editor. It seems to only affect this one user, so I assume it's an internet connection/VPN issue. Any troubleshooting tips for them? I've told them that the next time it happens to try the following: Try a different browser (they're on Chrome) Try…

Hi, I am trying to make a new column in the grading section that will show the group number—to which group the students belong. How do I do that?

Can I copy content from Blackboard program?

Say a user collection is already enrolled in a course. Later, some new users are added to that user collection. Yes, those new users can be enrolled in the course independent of the user collection, but shouldn't the new users automatically get enrolled because they were added to the previously-enrolled user collection? Or…

I will be creating >150 modules and they all have the same 2 assignments, how can I create the assignments so that they are available to put in all of my modules. Searching in the community doesn't provide anything immediately useful.

I see that instructors can use the graphical equation editor to write their questions but do students have the same ability for a fill in the blank or short answer question? This is specifically for a calculus course and the instructor doesn't want to use multiple choice. What is the best way to go about this?

Question about file management and version control. Can I assume that when I copy a course, it also makes a copy of the pdfs within that course? If that is true, is there a way to avoid that, so that there is one pdf associated with a dept? Is there version control so that if I update that pdf, I can make sure that all…

Twice this past week, instructors have reached out because the new Content Experience in their courses have randomly turned off. I checked - they do not have permissions to turn it on/off. I even did a screen share, and they do not have the ability to pull up this menu in their course. I'm at a loss as to how this has…

I know that I can put the same quiz or assignment in 2 modules, but I can't figure out if this also works for file pages. I have a "Major Assignments Overview" page that includes some context, readings, and then links to the actual assignments (all due later in the class). I'd like to link this page in both the Welcome…

Greetings, I am trying to bulk enroll users to a course using a CSV. This article: https://community.d2l.com/brightspace/kb/articles/4215-import-multiple-users-with-the-bulk-user-management-tool suggests things I cannot do. My Brightspace does not have a menu called Admin Tools. I *do* have a menu called Module Admin, but…

I am trying to style a HTML table cell to use vertical text orientation by adding "writing-mode: vertical-lr;" to the style tag. This works as expected in the editor, as illustrated in the attached screenshot (shaded green cell). However, if I save the changes by clicking 'Update', the styling appears to get stripped. See…

Hi, I recently merged two courses - grades 11 and 12. I would like to nest all of my content tabs under their specific grade tab. Is this possible? TIA.

How can you set each unit in the NCE to be a different color? I know how to make a theme which would change the color of all units, but in the demo for NCE the course had each unit as a different color.

Hi! Say I am creating two learning paths. Both learning paths have the same course. 1. If I update one course in one learning path, will it update the other? (I prefer that this happen.) 2. Can I assign the same learning path to two different student groups, one student group starting on a Sunday with their own due dates…

Hello, 1- How can I associate the same assignment to different group-categories? When I try to, the assignment can be linked or associated to one category only! 2- How can I add a bulk of groups (instead of one by one ) to an already created category? Thanks!

sent to students when I post new content to my course? Last fall during a session, I posted a new document to our course. As I recall, there was no option to select whether or not to notify students of this new content. As I would have chosen NOT to send a notification. So a notification was sent to all students. How do I…
