Notification Regarding Template ePortfolios Editing Options

Digication has created a new notification that informs users that a system-wide template ePortfolio or a course ePortfolio template cannot be edited or deleted. This is intended to prevent any inadvertent deletions or modifications of existing template ePortfolios.

To ensure that a template ePortfolio is not modified and to view the relevant notification, please, follow the steps below:

In the chosen course window, select theePortfolios taband then click theManage Access button. You will be immediately redirected to a new window where you can view theTemplate menufor your course. Select theYes optionfrom the Template menu, thus agreeing to offer your course as a template to your students. Save your work by clicking on theSavebutton.

A new window will open in which you can view your template ePortfolio. Click on the newly createdtemplate ePortfolioand you can view in the new windowthe notificationthat announces thatthetemplate ePortfolio cannot be modified.
