Turn of notifications
Is there a way I can turn off notifications that show up for students in the update alerts icon every time I add or adjust content in the course? I know you can alert students when content is changed by selecting that box, but can you stop a notification from going out every time new files are added or edited?

Export Questions from the Question Library to a zip file
Is there a config variable that needs to be turned on to be able to export questions from a course's question library?

Content Browser Widget
When I have the “Content Browser” widget added to the homepage, one can get to all of the content that I have otherwise hidden (as I hid all the modules). I assumed making this content hidden in one place would keep it hidden in other places.

If I select "upload new version" when updating, will that old SCORM be replaced not just in that location, but in the other locations it features throughout Brightspace with the new one up and running??

Accordian troubleshooting
I'm using v3 of the html templates and sometimes when I insert a single accordian, the bottom line of the text box disappears when the accordian is collapsed. And then on other pages, the text box is visable. I'm inserting the accordian below a horizontal line and right above the page footer on all pages. Any ideas why…

Forcing notifications for new Grades being posted
Hello Community, is there a way to automate notifications to students that a new Grade Item has been posted? Currently, our Instructors remind students at the beginning of a semester to 'turn on' notifications for new grade items. Is there a way that Instructors can turn this on for all students? Thanks in advance

Roles & Permissions Issues
I've been troubleshooting an issue for the past week regarding facilitators' roles and permissions settings. I've enrolled several facilitators into a course and none of them are able to view any assignments.

Restricting Discussions to unique individuals
Good Morning Community, I am running into a bit of a headache. I have a professor who desires to talk to students about their writing assignments via discussion posts. A forum for each assignment and then each student has their own post under that forum. The professor wants it so that other students cannot see the contents…

Panopto Videos Won't Play on iPads
We have integrated Panopto via the External Learning Tools into D2L. Our students that use iPads have recently been unable to view any Panopto videos linked in content. Tried multiple browsers with the same results. Only a black box appears. This is happening only on iPads. Have you heard of this issue? Any solutions?

Re-structuring semesters in Brightspace
We're looking into streamlining some of the non-IPSIS fed semesters/courses that staff and students are enrolled on. These include Student Hub spaces with institutional support pages and Staff module design resources.

Link quiz questions
My paper tests often have several questions that are based on the same hypothetical conditions. Is it possible in a Brightspace quiz to link questions so they will always appear together and based on the same conditions? And, if possible, can the questions be of different types?

How do you set up Brightspace for rolling intake?
One of the programs at our organization is changing from a cohort based model to a rolling (continuous) intake model. Each program participant has up to 5 years to complete program.

Link multiple grades to 1 assignment
We are developing assignments for integrated testing. This means that different educators look at the same product from different perspectives (e.g. a pedagogue and a didactician) (often at different parts of it, but the cohesion is important) and also each assess the product on the basis of their own/other criteria and…
