Ungraded Group Discussions - Availability Dates not saving

[Emybee]

Has anyone else come across this issue? When creating an ungraded Group Discussion, the availability dates won't save unless I leave "This is a Group Discussion" unchecked and first "Manage Assign To", assign it to everyone (not sections), apply the available from and until dates there, and then check "This is a Group Discussion". Only then will the availability dates be saved and appear when I click "View Availability".

Hi Emybee - I see the same behavior that you do when I try to create an ungraded group discussion. I appreciate you providing the workaround. I spoke with Canvas support, and they are aware of the bug.  Fingers crossed for a quick fix!
