Known Issue with Talis Blocks
If you have moved materials from one Aula space to another, it is possible you will see a Failed to load the reading list error message on your Talis Reading lists in your Materials.
This happens because each Talis block contains a URL that is unique to a space. This is why the Talis Reading list works on the space where the materials were imported from, but not on the new space.
If this is something you do encounter, you will need to:
- Delete the Talis block containing the Failed to load the reading list error message by clicking on the delete icon.
- A pop-up will appear asking if you want to delete the file. Click Delete.
- Recreate the Talis Reading list in the space where you have imported your materials by clicking on the + icon within the editor.
- Then, click Integrations.
- Select Talis Reading List from the dropdown.
- Search for the existing list and click Save.
