Hello Hive Mind, I am told that Canvas has the basic functionality as Kami. I need my students to be able to write on PDF's and than resubmit them to me for grading. I for the life of me can not figure out how to do that. Does anyone have a quick how...

A student was typing up his response, but hit 'next' instead of 'reply' and now his entry is gone.  Any way to get it back?

The only way I could build this activity was to make it a Quiz, but it's supposed to be a group activity. Where is the checkbox that lets me do that? In fact, where it it on a "regular" assignment? Did that change when they moved the due dates to a s...

Canvas is already so bloated! Why do I now have to make an additional click to open a separate screen to set a due date? You keep making it worse!   And can we stop with the 17 Captch requests?? I don't have time for this crap!   And I like the title...

I've uploaded several VidGrid videos and some students cannot view them. They get the following message:"We were not able to find a user. Please try again, if that doesn't work please contact your account administrator or videoengineering@paylocity.c...

Is there a way to move student submissions from one assignment to another? For example, when a student turns in an assignment in the wrong place. 

Is anyone else experiencing this? On the home page of any course, the right hand sidebar almost overlaps a bit of the content on the right , which also stops me from using the menu items for any modules. I've attached a screenshot for viewing.  The o...

We've added Rubric to an Assignment shell for instructors' grading on Speed Grader. In the past semester, we would add a code "<div id="school" data-pretty-rubric="true"> to prevent the Rubric being visible to students.   However, it seems that Canva...

I have created 100+ Practice Quizzes (2 items each drawing randomly from larger pools) in my statistics class. These are organized into 8-10 Practice Quizzes for each module over the course of a semester. In Blackboard, I could create a Navigation li...

I'm a teacher with a passion for safety education, and I'm planning to launch a new course on my website focused on fire safety. The course will cover important topics like safe use of fireplaces, stoves, and other common household items that pose fi...

Here is a real conundrum. In courses that I created using the SIS Import, teachers are not able to remove students. Their role is a teacher but when they click on the dots in People, the drop down only shows: Prior to using SIS Import, staff made th...

Hi, I am receiving an error when I try to save an announcement that has been made available to all sections.  It says 'error updating discussion type' yet this is an announcement.  I am able to save it to specific sections without problem, just not a...

Hi! I am wondering as a course admin/instructor how to edit the URL of a page after it has been created. This page is part of a module. Thank you! 

I would love to use the shortcuts in Modules, specifically the indent. I am on a Mac and can't for the life of me figure out how to make it work. Anyone?

During my 3rd period Social Studies class today, my class opened their Canvas pages to view their online textbook from mcGraw-hill on their student Chromebook.  When the screen opened, only the math textbooks were showing on the screen, no Social Stu...

I have created a rubric with Criteria, ratings, and points.  I then created the assignment where students will submit the paper and added the rubric to the assignment.  As an instructor, I can see the details written in the ratings area which lists t...

Is there a way to display both points earned as well as the percentage in the grade book?

Why won't my Canvas update after I turn assignments in (specifically assignments that I need to complete in order to move onto the next module)?

I need to send an announcement to all the students in a class that already finished (basically a reminder to for them to pick up final projects). In the past I would just post an announcement at the beginning of the next term - however when I logged ...

It appears there was an update in July that when the preferred name settings were consolidated into one section, resulted in the checkbox settings not working the way they used to. In our testing, with "Users can edit their name" unchecked and "User...

We have numerous Course Blueprints which contain primarily Storyline-generated SCORM files in the learning modules. These blueprints then become the basis for our active sections. We have not had any issues in the past when copying these sections. As...

While we sync most students from our SIS (Anthology), inevitably there are a few students who need to be added manually for one reason or another. They show up as "pending" because they don't have access to Canvas right now. We have had a couple facu...

When creating announcements, I do not want my students to reply to them.  This was not a problem last semester but this semester, the Reply button continually shows.  I have unclicked the button that says "allow comments" and saved the announcement, ...

I'm needing to update and delete my current email on Canvas, as it's an old email will be delated in the next week so needs to be sorted asap.  I'm finding it really difficult. I've looked help and guides but they don't seem to solve the problem. Tha...

I have an unpublished course with three modules. When wanting to move an assignment from one module to another, this error message appears: Move item failed undefined is not an object (evaluating 'i[0].appendChild') This error occurs with all assignm...

Hi Looking at creating some formal quizzes, but it would be great if there was a way to detect if the students have switched from the quiz page to say Google to search for the answer, and if it does automatically close the attempt. We don't use any t...

I've been having an issue for a while (which wasn't always an issue) and wonder if anyone knows how to fix it. I used to use the arrow keys to navigate vertically and horizontally through the grade entry boxes. Going horizontally is still normal, but...
