The Instructure Community will enter a read-only state on November 22, 2025 as we prepare to migrate to our new Community platform in early December. Read our blog post for more info about this change.
Is there a way to post either a discussion or an announcement where students can reply anonymously? I would like to get some feedback from them and believe they'd be more willing to share their ideas/needs if it were anonymous.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @amerlo Welcome to the Canvas Community. Unfortunately, this is not possible in Canvas. There are others who would like this, as well, and I encourage you to vote "up" and, if you like, comment on the following feature idea: https://community.canvaslms.com/ideas/1117-anonymous-discussion-forums .
Not the answer you're likely looking for, but I hope it helps, Adrienne. Be well!

Not what I was hoping for, but what I expected. Thanks for suggesting to vote. I did. Maybe with enough votes they'll make a change.
Yes, it's not the answer I was hoping for, but it is what I expected. Thanks for the suggestion to vote. I did.
