The tool you used to do this is being phased out from the beginning of September to make way for a new tool. This means that all the embedded links in your units will disappear in September. In order to prevent this you will need to make changes to your Moodle areas. Please can you get in touch so we can support you through this process.CCO/public domain: https://pixabay.com/illustrations/social-social-networks-1206610/Remove links from last year Is the reading list structured into weekly sections?YesNoWeekly sections can be embedded using ‘Reading list (new)’.
