Deactivate & request a new site for a course
Hi everyone, While copying content from a previous semester, our gradebook links did not transfer correctly, causing hundreds of grade items to get mixed up.

Assigning AWARDS/CERTS at the ORG unit to users with the same name
New to Brightspace and love what it has to offer at the course/learner level, but boy the admin functionality is really lacking. We want to assign awards and certs at the org level, but we've noticed when searching for users with a common name, you can't differentiate between them. See screen shot. Am I missing a config…

Has anyone hosted live events with their students (i.e trivia quizzes for socialisation purposes)?
I'm exploring the idea of hosting live events on our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) to enhance social interaction and engagement rather than focusing solely on assessing course content knowledge.

Restrictions - Sections - Display configurations
Hello D2L community, We created a course but now we want to know how to more effectively restrict our audience to access certain content.

Classlist in Alphabetical Order
When I go to classlist, select the arrow and choose for students' names to be listed in alphabetical order from either last or first, only a few names are listed in order and the rest are not. Is this an issue that's been reported before? Is there a way for me to resolve this on my end?

Virtual Classroom Attendance
Hello, I had previously sent a ticket inquiring if we could add the student ID# numbers with the student names in the virtual classroom attendance tracker. The response was no.

Hello, Is it possible to add a note to an updated file so that students can see a brief description of what was updated?

Trying to determine cumulative grade
I have been reading the posts about final grades and viewed the video, but I think I may be missing something. I want the cumulative grade "so far" to appear BUT the grades I'm seeing seems to be calculated on the work done so far, divided by the points of the assignments completed. For example: Why isn't the denominator…

Survey - Reports Generation and Editing
Hello D2L community, We have recently opened a new module in our D2L course shell, and as a part of this learning journey, we have set up surveys.
