How can I add/restore deleted templates?

Hi  @mindy_ittenbach 

Did you delete the source course from Canvas or just the Commons resource?

I think I figured it out. I found where to import Canvas templates, and now I have them. Thank you anyway!

I am a higher ed teacher and learned about the teacher appreciation templates today. I see the ones that are probably behind a paywall with good descriptions but they do not have a download link. I found a couple for the teacher appreciation (home page and modules templates) which are downloadable for free (Teacher Appreciation 2018 | Home Page Templates and https://community.canvaslms.com/groups/designers/blog/2020/03/11/2020-course-design-essentials-home-... ). However, I do not see how they would look in Canvas. I see the instructions to import the file but I do not see a way to delete the imported template if I don't like the looks in a Demo canvas shell. Would I have to just throw out that Canvas shell and try another one in a new shell?

Thank you.

Hi @rdutta -

If there is nothing else in the course, you may be able to reset it. However, if you have other content, you can always test it in your beta instance!

How do I reset course content? 

How do I access my Canvas Sandbox Beta environment?
