Some of our instructors are concerned that students are using the calendar widget links to coursework to bypass Content modules and look at readings. Is there a way to prevent this while still using the Calendar widget or some other good replacement for that widget?
I’m wondering if there is currently any way in Brightspace for an instructor to create a calendar event once and apply it across multiple active course offerings simultaneously. As an example, one of our instructors currently has 10 active course shells and would like to add items such as: stat holidays/college closures…
I'm wanting to use the Calendar widget on the main Organization homepage as a way to help maintain a global calendar of upcoming training events. However, there are certain events that I only want to make available to certain user roles or groups. I see that you're able to do this at the course level and can restrict…
We would like to use the institutional calendar to highlight different events for specific groups, such as showing student events only to students, or workshop opportunities to faculty. It doesn't look like there's a way to restrict individual events in the main institution calendar. Is there any other way that we might be…
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?
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…

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.…
