Is padding added under each uploaded image? It doesn't appear in the HTML.
I am trying to create a table with one row and two cells. The first cell will be an image, the second some text. I want them to be vertically aligned in the middle. This is what I see: So....they're almost lined up...but the inner nitpicky me wonders why they aren't perfectly aligned. The image appears a little higher than…

Is there a way to have preset discussion threads in a forum? (no student created threads)
I would like to have a discussion forum with 3 preset threads that students can choose to reply to, and then there would be ongoing discussions within those three threads.

How to stop notifications showing students their grades from hidden grade items?
We're relatively new to D2L, and I've got an issue with instructors publishing grades. Basically, I've got a professor grading his final exams, and he's got all of his grade items hidden and he even removed grades from the navbar so the students can't see the gradebook currently. Then he goes into spreadsheet view and is…

Can we tell how a user logged in (SSO vs noredirect)?
I'm guessing the answer is "no", because nothing in DataHub looks potentially relevant. Our users log in a few different ways, e.g. portal SSO vs native login page. Is there any record of which method is used?

In the New Content Experience, can you set manual completion tracking?

Does anyone know if this functionality has moved to a different spot?…

How to make a global Widget that functions based on the current course?
The following specific issue is an example of a more general one we're facing: We have several small features (widgets, intelligent agents, possibly others) that we'd like to add to many courses all at once, and manage the feature as a single entity rather than go into each course one by one. But they need to function…

Has anyone found a way to use ungrading in Brightspace?
For example I have been trying to think of a way to use ungrading and release conditions. I get that you can use release conditions to restrict access to content until a student has mastered it. What I am looking for is how to use the Brightspace tools in ungrading. Thanks.

What is the best way to manually grade quizzes comprised of written response questions?
I am looking for best process I should use to manually grade quizzes that include written response questions only. There is no set due date for these quizzes, so I grade them as they come in, usually 4 or 5 per day. Therefore, it does not make sense to grade by question. I also want the grade and feedback to be available…

Can BrightSpace confirm that the "Short Description" field for Quiz questions is NEVER accessible by students taking a Quiz (even using DevTools to look at the raw HTML)? It is tempting to name Quiz questions in a way that may give away the answer. Obviously this would be a bad idea if the "Short Description" field ever…
