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.
Do you know what can cause speedgraders comment icon not to be shown?
We have admin user where comment icon is visible and we have another ordinary user where the comment icon isn't shown (hence it isn't possible to add point comment etc).
Kind regards,
Michael
I've seen this happen sometimes when a user is using Firefox instead of Chrome.
Ok, noted. We mostly use Chrome now.
Found the issue. The problem is that if the assignment has peer review checked and it is set to be anonymous then it isn't possible to add comments - even for the teacher which clearly isn't peer. Workaround: Create assignment twice, one for peer review and one teacher to review with comments?
Kind regards,
Michael
@mje ,
We are giving the Canvas Admins area a little bit of love (especially questions that are really, really old) and just want to check in with you. This will also bring this question new attention.
