Kia ora, we are setting up a course in Brightspace and want to hide certain events in the calendar (it is getting quite cluttered). However, when using the Manage Dates tool, the option to hide these events in the calendar is greyed out: Is there a way to fix this? It is worth noting that elsewhere in the Manage Dates tool…
Hi Weird question- for our Super Admin group, in the Calendar Tool, 2 of us see More Actions drop down menu (has Change Event Visibility, Offset Dates, Import Events, Delete), but 2 of us do not see the More Actions drop down menu in the same course- we only have the Import Events button. We are all Super Admins. Any idea…
Hello! We are a very very small organization using Brightspace. The entire administration team is only me right now, and I am mostly self taught. So I am in over my head. :D We have a very basic version of brightspace- not a lot of budget for the add ins. For synchronous course events (we put them on Discover) I was…
Hello everyone, I'm an admin, and I've recently noticed an issue with the calendar. For one of the quizzes, the due and end dates do not appear on the personal calendar when viewing by day. However, they do appear in these places: On the course home page On the calendar when viewing by week or month The quiz settings do…
I just read a query from about a year ago (2024) titled “Due date for graded Discussion topic?” and I’m experiencing the same issue. In my courses, I have multiple discussion topics. In the older content experience, I could go to the Restrictions tab and check a box to have the end date display on the D2L Calendar.…
I'd like to create release conditions that make it impossible to consume an entire 15 week course in a matter of a few days. Some students will postpone access to content and then consume an entire course in the final 72 hours of the semester. On the one hand, students want an asynchronous course with maximum flexibility…
We have an educator who is setting start dates for making lecture content available to cut down on manual work (making things visible later on). However, this is now creating calendar events that are likely to confuse students. They may think the lecture is on that date, when it is just content being released. We would…
Kia ora, We're setting up a template course that we can easily use to base other lessons on. We have cleaned this template of all assignments, quizes etc, but for some reason the Calendar widget still displays quizzes as upcoming events: When you go into the Calendar tool, it does not show any upcoming Events or Tasks: Is…
How can I remove the calendar event associate with content start date? I want to schedule content to become visible to learners at the appropriate date/time without it displaying as an event on the calendar. I have several content pages (i.e. PDFs like session slides) that I want to become visible just at the time of the…
I am teaching three courses, and I set up a calendar for one of those courses. However, the other two courses do not allow me to enter calendar items for them, the drop-down list does not contain their names.
