Step-By-Step
Re-Naming Buttons
(Text version)

1. Instructors and TAs can configure their Blackboard course site menu by re-naming the navigation buttons on the left side of the Blackboard display to more accurately reflect the content.

2. To re-name any of the navigation buttons:

• Log into the Blackboard course site as usual.
• Go to Control Panel / Manage Course Menu. This displays the Manage Course Menu page.
• Click on the "Modify" button next to the button you want to re-name.
• Type in a new name in the box marked "Area Name" (Maximum 18 characters if using buttons).
• Click on the "Submit" button at the bottom of the page. A receipt will be displayed telling you that the menu item has been updated.
