Canvas guides with new RCE images

[kmurday]

We are looking to train folks who are brand new to Canvas, and are now in an extremely awkward situation, because all of the Canvas instructor guides show images of the old RCE. We are stuck trying to explain to some no-so-savvy instructors why it is that their RCE doesn't look like the images in the guides. Yes, we can refer them to the pages on the new RCE, but for already anxious new faculty, it would be really nice to have Canvas guides that actually look like the current instance of Canvas. Do we have any updated Canvas guides that show images of the new RCE in content pages like "Setting up your syllabus" - and if not, do we have a sense of when the instructor/student guides will all be updated with those new images?

To clarify - if I'm trying to train a new instructor on how to edit a page, and send them to https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-26404-how-do-i-edit-a-page-in-a-coursethey'll see instructions based on the interface for the old RCE. When they go to edit a page in their summer course, they will see the new RCE and have to refer to a separate Canvas guide to be able to recreate the steps. This is far from ideal.

Hi kmurday,

Thanks for the comment! I definitely understand that this can be super frustrating. Unfortunately, we've been in a tricky spot as some institutions have moved to the new Rich Content Editor while others continue to use the classic version. We had been waiting for the EOL of the Classic RCE, but there might be some changes to that timeline. I will create a task to review some of these lessons to see if we can find a way to make them more applicable for New RCE users.

Perhaps a set of guides that users of the new RCE can refer to, maintained parallel to the old guides? Just a suggestion!
