How do I change content loaded from a 'discussion' to a 'page'

[rachelfairhurst]

Hi 

Can someone please offer some guidance.  I've loaded some course content onto a discussion page rather than a normal page.  Can you please advise how I can change this?

Thanks

Hi @rachelfairhurst,

Unfortunately there isn't really a way to change something from one type of content to another in Canvas.  What you'd likely need to do is edit the discussion, highlight everything in the text box, then copy it (right click -> select copy, or ctrl+c or cmd+c on a keyboard).  Then create a new page in the pages area, edit that and paste the content into that area (right click -> select paste, or ctrl+v or cmd+v on a keyboard).  You can then save the new page and go back and delete the discussion you no longer need.

Hope this helps a bit!
