Dear Canvas Team,
I have several courses in which although I published, there is no saying "Course is Published" in the Course Details Page, hence, I see no students in Attendance although all my students are in, in the People tab, there are all of them already. They did the exercises already.
Please help me to fix it. I can't mark attendance!
Thank you so much
Hi @Hula,
Could you perhaps share a screenshot or provide more details about what's going on? If students have done exercises (assuming you mean assignments or something similar), then the course must be published. When a course is unpublished, students access the course at all. It's possible the course has been unpublished after students did work, but I know for sure if any grading was done, that would mean the course had to stay published. Maybe this is just an attendance tool issue if that's really where you're having the issue. Any more info you can provide would help us point you in the right direction.
