How do I move the composed page to the Welcome Page?

[Chris_Hofer · Accepted solution]

Hello there, @LeslieSwallow ...

If you have created a new page in your courses on the "Pages" index page of your course:

• How do I use the Pages Index Page?
• How do I create a new page in a course?

...you can then assign that course as the "Front Page" ... so that it is the page your students will see each time they log in to your course.  To assign a new content page as a "Front Page", follow these steps:

• How do I set a Front Page in a course?

Then, once you do this, if you've not already done this next step, you need to tell Canvas which part of your course you want to use as your "Home" page.  Follow the steps in this Guide...selecting the options for "Pages Front Page":

• How do I change the Course Home Page?

Hopefully I've understood your question.  If this is not what you are asking, can you please provide further clarification?  Thanks, and looking forward to hearing back from you soon!
