Self-enrolment link issue with when using Safari (no Captcha)

[StevenBeech]

When opening a self-enrolment link via Safari the Captcha function is not visible which cause the 'Enol in course' button to be inactive. The only workaround is to use the self-enrolment register with course code option.

The bottom line is that Safari and Canvas don't play well together. You'd be much better off using Firefox or Chrome. Don't waste your time with Safari.

Bit tricky trying to enroll trainees to a course page when they are using an iPhone/iPad...

Canvas has an amazing student app that works well on iPhones and iPads.  Here's a link to the Canvas Student App in the App Store. Training participants will download this app and sign in with their credentials. All courses that they are enrolled in as a student will be available via this Canvas Student App.

BUT how can they sign in if they haven't enrolled yet?! I'm aware of the App and yes it's great but to even make it work they have to use the desktop version and scan a QR code. That's once their account is setup which they cannot do because the Captcha function isn't working on the self-enrolment page!

Yet, if we use the /register link (with a course code) the Captcha function is there?

There are a few things to consider:

1. As a Free for Teacher User, you need to make sure that your course settings are "Public" so that your participants will be able to join your course. After everyone is enrolled, then you have the ability to change the course settings back to your preference. 
2. If you're still having issues, reach out to Canvas Help for support. How do I contact Canvas Support?

It would seem I cannot make the course Public without contacting an Administrator which means this is a restriction of the Free for Teacher access?
