The bulk due date changer released 4/18/20 is wonderful, but doesn't include the option to set a due time. Let's vote up the idea to add time to the bulk due date changer!

I totally agree, we need the option to change the due time as well without having to go into each individual assignment. It takes way too much time!

Glad to see that this is being added. Thank you!

UPDATE: I spoke too soon. The regular date and time picker is not being used for providing a desired time and the time needs to be typed in. This was brought to my attention by @chriscas in its deploy Q&A at https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Releases-Q-A/Releases-Q-amp-A-2022-03-30-Bulk-Due-Date-Tim....

It says this idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas, but I don't see where.

I don't see it either. I typed in the new times in the bulk editor and they appeared to be okay, but after saving, they all reverted back to 11:59pm.

August 2022 .. still no way to set the due times. Yes, there's a default time now, but it can only be set to the whole hour, all my classes start on the 30 minute mark and assignments are due then. Yes, I could make them due 30 minutes earlier, but that’s strange and confusing, and guaranteed to result in students submitting work late.

There has to be a bulk way to edit all my 9:30 AM due times form a previous semester to say 12:30 PM for this semester once they have been imported (dates are adjusted ok for the most part). Each assignment has two due dates/time (regular and late), say 20 assignments per semester, 40 new dates/time to be set, 3 courses, that’s a 120 time this has to be done (and without errors). Tedious and waste of time. Adjusting dates is much more complex than times, so it's odd they would do one, but not the simpler one.

This is clearly not the case 😕
