Bb Learn Blogs -- For Group Blogs, Hide Links to Blogs Webpage

Do the following if you use groups in your Bb Learn course shell, and each group has a blog.

  • If you have a "Course Tools" link above the "Control Panel" in the left-hand navigation panel in your Bb Learn course shell, click the "Hide Link" button next to "Blogs."
  • If you have a link that leads to the "Tools" webpage in your Bb Learn course shell, click the "Hide Link" button next to "Blogs."
  • If you have a link to the "Blogs" webpage in your Bb Learn course shell, delete or hide that link.

Why do this? 

Group blogs appear when the "Blog" tool is enabled when you create groups in Bb Learn. A group blog is always visible to all students (even ones not in the group) on the "Blogs" webpage in a Bb Learn course shell. The "Blogs" webpage lists all blogs in a Bb Learn course shell. So if you use group blogs, we recommend hiding links to the "Blogs" webpage.
