[ARCHIVED] How to limit question bank options to only those in the course

[rene_rodriguez]

When "Find Questions" to a quiz, I am presented with a long list of question banks, most of which do not belong to the course I am currently working. This forces me to navigate this long list of banks from many other courses in order to find the question bank of the course for which I am creating the quiz. This may be useful on some cases, but is tedious when you don't need to see that many banks.

Is there a way to limit the question banks being displayed to only those in the current course (so I can actually select questions) ?  I already tried click on the link "View Course Question Banks" but that takes me to another page, from which I cant select questions.

As far as I'm aware there isn't a way to limit this. :smileycry:

I had the same problem. It looks like there is a way to prevent it.

Questions banks became globally visible to all courses when they are bookmarked. Apparently, that is the default situation. To keep a question bank visible locally to that course only, you should unmark it.

You can reverse the process of what is described here to unmark those questions banks:
