[BUG] Quizzes not being published in "Quick Eval"
Through the "Quick Eval" page, categorized by activity, I shared the results of my quiz. There was a "Publish All" option in the quiz's rightmost panel. This, I reasoned, would make the quiz public. Even the Quizzes/Exams page marked the quizzes as published. However, it didn't. The problem was fixed when I manually…

Can the dimensions on a self-assessment feedback box be expanded/enlarged?
Self Discussions provide the option for instant feedback to students when answering a question. If the question has a lengthy feedback response D2L will elongate the response field.

I've been told that students who use the Brightspace Pulse app may not have their progress within the course recorded accurately. For example, when viewing a student's Content Progress, my view within the course space may indicate that they have never viewed resources, while the student asserts that they did. Because this…

Grade Item Associated to Deleted Dropbox Cannot Be Deleted
We're troubleshooting a course in which grades and feedback will not publish in the gradebook for a dropbox assignment. One quirk in this course is that a grade item is still associated with a deleted dropbox folder. We can't delete that grade item. In fact, it won't let us delete any grade items, perhaps because they are…
