Hi Erin, After this weekend's release broke all our tabs and accordions, I tried to follow the links to InstUI. It is only accessible to programmers. The ease of use of the style sheets is now gone and I don't see an easy solution to fixing our tabs and accordions layout. What was the thinking on releasing it without putting the rich content…

I'm trying to figure out a way to get at the questions in a question bank, (original quizzes), and haven't found anything in the API or in Canvas Data.

Canvas announced back in early 2017 that they were deprecating the jQuery UI and later that accordions were going to be the first to go. I thought they had already removed the accordions, so the fact that it was still working is more of a surprise than it's not now. If the accordions are the only thing to have disappeared right now, then that's…

Bulk Remove Students Tool

I created a new userscript for removing students from courses in bulk. This will be particularly useful when managing clubs/activity and remediation manually created courses that aren’t set to conclude. For instance, I can see us using this heavily to manage NHS/NJHS, Class of "2018" courses, LOTE clubs, and anything else that has rolling members.…

I am using PowerSchool, but really if anyone has had experience with custom apps or any other ways to address… (Show more)
