Assignments and Template Titles Missing

A glitch was discovered in the Multi-Tool. The tool was not populating assignments into the Due Date Modifier.  A help ticket was filed with Cidi Design Tools. Cidi responded that this is a known issue that happens randomly for specific users in specific courses.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

The Due Date Modifier and Template Builder sometimes do not show any course assignments or template names. This is because the API token is missing from the course.

Use this fix if you ever encounter the Multi Tool not populating assignments for the Due Date Modifier or if Template Titles go missing.

  1. Open the Multi Tool in the course.

  2. Click on the Module Builder instead of the Due Date Modifier or the Template Builder. By clicking on Module Builder first, this will activate the specific code needed (API token) causing the assignments and Template titles to appear.

  3. Once you have clicked on the Module Builder, exit the Multi Tool entirely by clicking on any other tab in the left navigation menu.

  4. Re-enter and go directly to either the Due Date Modifier or the Template Builder. They should work now.
