Dear Digication Community,

We have a few updates to share with you regarding our Help Desk documentation, as well as some recent improvements and bug fixes.

Documentation Updates

In our Administrator Guide, we have added an article with step by step instructions for configuring Digication as an external tool for each LMS: Adding Digication as an LTI Tool. Additionally, we have added an article highlighting all areas of the Digication Kora interface which are able to be customized: Digication Kora - Customizable Elements.

In our Student Guide, we have added a new section titled Using Digication in an LMS, containing step by step instructions for students who are accessing Digication through their LMS for the first time.  Currently, Accessing Digication in Moodle, and Accessing Digication in Canvas are included. Articles covering other commonly used LMS will be added in the coming weeks.

The following articles have been recently updated:

Gallery Display Options - Updated with maximum image resolution information.
