Discussion board formatting
For one of my courses, we utilize discussion boards, and we are expected to format using APA7 guidelines. I am unable to indent, as when I press tab, it takes me to the next button instead of the usual expected indentation. I am also unable to create the hanging indent that is required in the references section. I have…

Intelligent Agents and formula or calculated columns
We are stumped about how to create an Intelligent Agent for the following use case. An instructor has set up her gradebook with a category for homework assignments, and wants to identify students who are missing a significant proportion of HW assignments (say, there are 10 HW assignments and she wants to identify people…

Is there a way to hide a module until the start date?
I would like to have sub-modules hidden until the start date/time and automatically made visible to students at the start date/time. Currently, the module is visible to them but they cannot click the links to their homework until the start date/time. This tends to create confusion or questions, so I would like modules to…

Published Feedback not showing for students
I spoke with an instructor last week about the fact that after the last wave update, her students could not read published feedback on the student grade screen. For example, the instructor entered feedback on this test, published it, and it's now not showing. This means individual students can't see their feedback. It…

Exam Feedback
Is there a way to collapse the 'Feedback' boxes on the new exam view? There used to be an option, but that was apparently removed in the new exam view. I do not need feedback boxes for every single multiple-choice question, and having to scroll through has made the new exam view quite cumbersome. Thank you.

grade point bonus after max point of category reached
How would you answer this instructor's question: " I am wondering about how to set a point value (total) for a grade category but then allow for points past that “max” to count for bonus. For Example – the Class Participation Category has 38 in-class quizzes which are 2 points each (for a total of 76 points); however, we…

Gradebook: How do I specify "blank" or "no grade" as the result of a formula?
I'm using the "formula" style of gradebook template, because none of the others offer the flexibility I need. Getting Brightspace to handle blank grades reasonably with this system has not worked out so far. The "don't include blanks in averages" setting does not appear to apply to formulas, which tend to throw an error if…

Work around for adding special access to discussions
For the first two discussion topics in my course students who enrolled late need special access. Are there work arounds for allowing individual students access after the end date for the rest of the class?

Has anyone had an issue with the quiz where the class is not all seeing the same questions. It seems that some of the class and I see the correct version and some are seeing questions (ghosts) an old version. I am really not sure how to sort this out as on my side everything looks correct.

How long does D2L retain statistical data?
We are exploring the reports in the Data Hub in greater detail and were wondering how far back does the data go in time? Back in our old Blackboard Original system, we could only get data as far back as 180 days from the present day so it wasn't all that helpful for assessing long-term trends. Data Hub and Analytics…
