Editing imported assignment - issues!

Hannah Falchuk

A teacher at my school tried to edit an assignment that he created last year. The assignment contained two downloads, one of which he wanted to delete. He could click on the trash bin icon next to the attachment and remove it visually, but when he saved the assignment, it was still there.


Has anyone else's school had trouble editing assignments that were imported?

This behavior is not related to the fact that it was an imported assignment.  You will see the same problem in an assignment you created 5 minutes ago.


Blackbaud is aware of the problem.  The work-around is to open the Gradebook and edit the assignment from there.  That gets you a different editing dialog that allows you to delete the links and downloads.


The Gradebook's edit dialog also allows you to attach a document to the assignment that was too large for the edit dialog on the Assignments tab.
