Resizing the D2L HTML editor window

It is possible to change the size of the window where I type in D2L!


1.  Click on the lower right-hand corner of the HTML editor window, then 
2.  drag it to make the window larger or smaller, as you wish. 


Here's a quick (silent) video that illustrates how to do it: http://screencast.com/t/CyFAublxZALC

Discussions: User Display Settings

Why can't a user see the Discussion forum and/or topic in D2L?

Possible solutions:

1. Discussion Forum -and- Topic are necessary

Double-check to be sure *both* a discussion Forum -and- at least one Topic exists within that forum.

Without at least one topic, the forum will not display.

2. User Display Settings

Users may choose the option to "Display: Topics with Unread" postings on the Discussions page.

This option will prevent them from:

• (a) being the FIRST person to post to a discussion, -and-
• (b) seeing any discussion forum or topic where they have already read all the postings.

Note: instructors who have chosend the "Display: Topics with Unread" option will also not be able to see a newly-created topic within a forum.

The following screen shots illustrate various user display settings in the Discussions tool:

-------------------------------------------------------------------

"Display: All Forums and Topics"

-------------------------------------------------------------------

"Display: Topics with Unread" where the user has at least one unread posting

-------------------------------------------------------------------

"Display: Topics with Unread" where the user has no unread postings
