We have recently enabled mandatory importances. However, many of our academics use the 'Add Resource' feature to add items to their lists. Unfortunately adding items in this way does not force an importance to be set, only a prompt at list publishing stage, which of course can be overridden. Therefore this greatly anticipated new feature will not have the impact for us that we had hoped. We would like mandatory importances to be available for all instances where items are added to lists.
Hello all! It is fantastic to hear your feedback on adding the Remind option for Mandatory Importances to the Edit List Add Resource path. We have discussed it previously and have a preliminary design. We have not yet scheduled it.
This sounds like a really good idea and the prompt at the point of adding the resource will mean list creators are more likely to add the importance at that stage , than having to go back afterwards and ad them in. Even though we are not using the mandatory importance, I think it would be a good idea to have the prompt there to add an importance when adding the resource.
