Unchecking Display on Course Content Page While Creating Discussions has no Effect

Description

When creating a discussion in an Ultra course, disabling the Display on Course Content page option does not prevent the discussion from being added to the Course Content page. After saving the discussion, the content item is still created, and reopening the discussion settings shows the option as enabled again, indicating that the setting was not persisted.

Steps to Replicate

  1. Log in to Blackboard Learn as an administrator

  2. Navigate to System Admin > Courses > Create an Ultra Course

  3. Open the course and navigate to the Discussions tab

  4. Create a new discussion

  5. Open the discussion settings

  6. Uncheck Display on Course Content page

  7. Save the discussion

  8. Navigate to the Course Content page

  9. Reopen the discussion settings

Observed Behavior:
​
The discussion is still created on the Course Content page. When reopening the discussion settings, the Display on Course Content page option appears checked, as though it had never been disabled.

Expected Behavior:
​
When Display on Course Content page is unchecked, the discussion should not be created on the Course Content page, and the setting should remain disabled when the discussion settings are reopened.
