My students can see their grades, but not the total. They see this:
"Calculation of totals has been disabled"
But the box in setting labeled "Hide totals in student grades summary" is unchecked.
Is there something I'm missing?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @OzTheEngineer,
There are a couple places to check for this. First, in your course settings there is the "Hide totals in student grades summary" option. In addition to that, the gradebook itself has a couple related settings: under the gradebook settings -> view options tab, ensure "Hide Assignment Group Totals" and "Hide Total and Override Columns" are both unchecked.
Hopefully this gets the view for students fixed up!

If you go to the Settings page, and uncheck the “Hide totals in student grade summary” option at the bottom of the screen, it should resolve the issues.

I checked both of the places mentioned by Chriscas, but even I - the teacher - can't see the total grades or the assignment categories totals and weights. The semester has ended, and I'm trying to finalize my grades for each student. When I go to a single student's grades page, I could see "Grading periods are weighted" and the weight as 100%. Then I changed the "Grading Period" on that page to 1st semester and VIOLA! Now I can see the assignment category weights. But I still can't see that in my gradebook. What am I doing wrongly?
Thank you for any help y'all can give. -Grace
