Hi All,
New to the Canvas Community.
Have had a request to disable students ability to nickname their courses. Found an old post from 2018 but wondered if anyone has done anything with this?

You will need to have access to upload Custom CSS file (E.g. Root admin account), have a look at this article https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Admin-Guide/How-do-I-upload-custom-JavaScript-and-CSS-files-to-an...
The following CSS will hide the "3-dot" button which allows students to set course's nickname
.ic-DashboardCard__header-button {
position: absolute;
top: 12px;
right: 12px;
width: 36px;
height: 36px;
border-radius: 50%;
visibility: hidden;
}
However, students can still disable the custom CSS from their browser.
