How do I get rid of the "page deleted" notification?

[9927744]

When I go to ALL pages, I get a notification, in 1 class, that the "null" page was deleted.

1. How can I stop seeing this notification?

2. What was the "null" page?

I know how to get rid of deleted items notification within a page, but not in all pages.

 @9927744 , that's a new error I haven't seen before! If you haven't already, my recommendation is to contact Canvas Support and see if they can help. If you're not sure how to do this, click on the Help link and Report a Problem.

I had to clear the cache again!

I have the same problem. I've cleared the cache, to no effect.

I also have this problem and cannot find a solution. I do not have a "Report a problem" option as an instructor. How can this be resolved?

I did not have this problem on another site, then once it started, it wouldn't stop.

Short of contacting Canvas support, the only thing that I can think of that might work from the web UI is to try tacking /undelete onto the end of your course homepage. It shows you a list of recently deleted items and it may allow you to restore the page that was deleted.

The null is going to be problematic, though. That basically means that something is missing, undefined, or not present. Whatever information that is might be necessary to restore it.

If the problem is very recent (it was working prior to July 18 but it's not now), then you might be able to go to your test instance of Canvas and look through the list of pages there and compare it to the list of pages inside your course to see what page got deleted. You could then try exporting the content from the test instance and importing it into your course, overriding items with the same ID. 

There are other things that might be doable through the Canvas API, but those are advanced topics. Support may be able to track it down a lot faster.

I've begun seeing that, too. I've learned to mostly ignore it, but it would be nice to not have it flashing up there all the time. It didn't used to.

I'm also getting this pop-up when I click on "View All Pages." I'm presuming it's not a problem, but it is annoying.

Same here. What's really odd is that the message is preceded by a green check mark (√), as if we had requested to see all pages and also have one deleted -- but we just want to see all pages without this inexplicable message. Hopefully Canvas will address this soon and someone with post a real solution.
