I'm a Canvas Admin and allowed the Differentiation Tags to be enabled in our system. BUT I'm not seeing it in any instructor course based on the Guides. Can someone tell me what's up and why it's not showing up?
Thanks,
Jodi
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @AVPOO ,
After you enabled it under Feature Options, did you enable it on the actual institution settings page under Features? You'll need to check this off to allow Instructors to use it!
Hope that helps!

Hi!
Thank you for sharing those screenshots. Did you actually enable this under your root-account's settings? After you enable the feature option under feature options, you need to return to Settings (the first tab), scroll down to the Features header and enable the Differentiation Tags checkbox. Enabling it under feature options only makes it available for you to see and enable it under the root-account settings, it does not officially enable the feature.

I did both things...
It still is not showing up.

I did not know to go there - got it! Thanks much!
Happy to help, glad you got it working!
