Please how do I change  MODULE from "Not visible to students" to "visible to students"?

Hi,  @caroline_ogunbo  Welcome to the Canvas Community! We're not sure if you're asking about the Modules course navigation link not being visible to students or if your question is referencing the module itself, so we'll provide you with both solutions.

How do I manage Course Navigation links?‌ shows how to make the Modules link visible in the navigation on the left; it will not display in students' view until it contains published content.

For a particular module to be visible to students, the module and its contents must be published: https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-26427-how-do-i-publish-or-unpublish-a-module-as-an-instruct... 

Hope this helps!

Thank you so much; is the “Not visible to students” symbol in front of the word MODULE because I selecting the “Lock Until?”

 @caroline_ogunbo ‌, would you provide a screenshot and specify the location in which you captured it? It's not clear where you might be seeing that message or whether you're in your own view or in Student View. Thanks.

Hi,  @caroline_ogunbo ‌, the only indication I can see on the screenshot is the crossed-off eye, and the lesson How do I manage Course Navigation links? that I provided in my initial response will help you make that link visible to students. I also notice that the modules are not yet published; until they contain content and both the module and the contents have been published, the Modules link will remain invisible in students' view until you add content and publish it. That's in the second lesson: https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-26427-how-do-i-publish-or-unpublish-a-module-as-an-instruct...
