How a quiz can be made to one student only so it's not calculated in other students' final grades? I made a quiz for one student so that no one else can see it. Still, in the grade book, it appears as part of the final weighted grade calculation for everybody. What could be a solution? I thought of exempting all other…

I have a quiz that has an Availability start time of 10:00 and an Availability end time of 10:55. The quiz has a time limit of 50 minutes. If I have students who are eligible to receive extra time, in addition to giving them the extra time, do I also need to change the Availability end time? My understanding was that the…

Our D2L has been integrated with our company Zoom account by the owner of the Zoom account who is also the Super Administrator of our D2L account.

Is it possible to add Assignment due dates to the Calendar? The only option I see is to add the start/end dates, but our due dates are not showing on the calendar, is that possible to do?

Hi, this is my firts post. I'm new with brightspace, but i have experience with other LMS.

I’m looking for some clarification on the “Copy to Other Courses” permission for the Announcements tool. Currently, this option is not enabled for our Instructor role, and before making any changes I’d like to better understand what enabling it would allow. My understanding is that it would let instructors copy…

Previously, one of our staff members was able to access the Surveys tool directly from the main homepage via Admin Tools. From there, they could search across courses (including multiple terms) and pull survey results without needing to enter each course individually. It now appears that this option is no longer available.…

Our suborg admins would like to be able to impersonate users within their suborg. We have those permissions turned on for that role, but realized we likely need to have the permissions turned on for the learner role as well, since that is how suborg admins are enrolled at the org level. While we don't want learners to be…

Hi, we want to extend the length of the audio capture option in Brightspace: Right now it's 30 minutes but we would like it to be 60 minutes. I found some old posts mentioning config variables for this, but i can't seem to find those variables….is there any way we can extend this to 60 minutes? Thanks! Regards Roel

I seem to remember at one point we could scroll to the bottom of a course page and see when that page was created/last edited. This was in Classic. Can we still see this or add this in for NCE? Is there a config variable I've just missed?
