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.
On the Syllabus page, what controls the order of the course summary within a date? I know it isn't by time or alphabetical, as shown in this image. Assignment 8.4 comes before Assignment 8.1, and both are due by 11:59pm.
I've seen this repeatedly across courses and finally decided to look in the Community today. I couldn't find much of anything about the Course Summary anywhere. My one idea is "by when the assignment was created" as Assignment 8.4 was created in the master course this summer, while the others were created many semesters ago. However, this image comes from a course into which the master was copied, so technically, all the assignments were created at the same time. This would also be a weird reason for sorting.
