According to a lot of the resources I'm seeing, it looks like online classes are becoming taxable in several states. Does the Instructure community have a plan to compensate for these new laws or any integrations they recommend to move towards paying...

Hi! We've been investigating options to allow collaborators/guest lecturers/etc. from outside our institution access to our Canvas instance.  One thought that has come up is using InCommon for authentication, after we have created user accounts with ...

I was able to find an instructional video on how to pin one discussion board among many in the course (e.g. Week 5 Discussion). But I am particularly interested in how to pin a specific discussion post within a discussion board. For instance, as an i...

I'm making the switch from Classic to New Quizzes.  I am teaching an online course that uses daily quizzes. I would like to program each quiz so that students get to see their quiz results -- that is, get to see the questions' text, their chosen answ...

The backticks to mark a blank in a question doesn't work for multiple characters, like asterisks or brackets. I'm working on fill-in-the-blank questions for a computer programming course and the inability to use those characters make fill-in-the-blan...

Once upon a time, I could change how much each individual quiz question in Classic Quiz was worth, but now when I try to add or edit a question, it does not show the option to do so on the right as it once did, but rather automatically assigns it 1 p...

Hi. I'm still receiving quiz notifications when I've clicked on "All Submissions" which says that I'll get "Assignments (except quizzes) submission/resubmission." I have grading clicked off. Not sure why I'm getting a notification every time a studen...

I'm a training manager, and we use Canvas for employee training. I am looking for a report that shows me the names of my course participants, with columns for each activity in a course (modules or quizzes) and the date on which each participant compl...

As a student that suffers from perfectionism, I wanted to ask if there is any possibility to change and/or remove old nicknames from past enrollment courses. I found out that I can change the colors of old courses on the calendar tab, but nicknames w...

There seems to be an old thread about this, but the issue is still persistent. I have some PDFs that I post on Canvas that are quite long (lecture notes that are in an almost textbook-like format, a "book" of homework problems I have written, and lab...

I get this error for some students whenever they submit a Google Doc to an assignment: "Error while processing or retrieving the document" It seems to happen to the same handful of students; they are not all enrolled in the same course. They use the ...

I do not understand this message:  "Importing the same course content more than once will overwrite any existing content in the course."  Here is what I want to do: I imported QUIZ from Course 2021 into Course 2022.  Then I edited it in Course 2022....

I have been trying to export a quiz so I can import it into a question bank. I am using the old format quizzes. However, when I export the quiz, the file is just a folder of several other folders of .xml files with no QTI files, so I cannot import th...

I know it is possible to edit availability and due dates for multiple assignments at once, but I can't find a place to achieve the same for modules. I have students complete a module ahead of each class, and in subsequent semesters I would like to be...

When I click in the score box (Grade out of 100) in speed grader, a dropdown list of values appears (10, 60, 100, etc.)  Until yesterday, the six values I used repeatedly populated.  This morning I updated my computer, and the values disappeared.  B...

I am required to report student attendance weekly in hours and minutes. Is there a way to determine how much time a student actively engaged in Canvas on a specified day or week? It appears Canvas tracks in the same way a student who logs in but does...
