Gradebook hidden icon despite automatic grade posting policy setting

[Andreas_Hopf]

New to Canvas, I did not realise that the grading was set to manual (apparently by default), so after grading many assignments, realising the problem, I changed the grade posting policy to automatic - yet the hidden icon prevails, as you can see below.

So, why is that icon still there after the change, and can the students I graded see their grade and, very important, my comments?

Thanks!

Hi @Andreas_Hopf,

It seems like you might have changed the entire course's posting policy. After changing the posting policy for each individual gradable item?

You may also still need to actually release the grade.

Does all of this relate to your situation?

The general course-wide setting from the grade book was on automatic, and I never touched that setting before. The icon disappeared after manually posting/releasing the grades though, thanks.
