Hi.  I'd like to put a link from my homepage to one of my Assignment Groups (under "Assignments"), without linking to any other assignments.  I'd even be happy to link to the Assignments page as I, the instructor see it (with the assignment groups se...

I have been teaching the same semester course for 2 years, 2 classes per year. I have always copied the previous semester's course with assignments at the start of the new semester. I had always unpublished all assignments and when I used the same as...

It's exponentially easier to grade using a csv in Google Sheets or Excel; however, Canvas' import feature doesn't support importing comments for the grades making it borderline useless for my purposes. I've seen other people have brought this up, has...

I just started using passback and noticed that when I sync my grades, that it will affect the points of the assignment in the transfer. In synergy, they allow you to affect the "weighting" of an assignment in a category by changing the number of poin...

I think similar questions have been asked in the past, but I can't find out if anything has changed in recent years. I have 4 exams in the Exams group. They all have a different number of questions, but I want them to all be weighted equally. How do ...

I would like to have individual assignment grades shaded in the gradebook.  For example, grades in the 80% range might be yellow whereas grades in the 90% range might be green.  I need a way of visually gauging how students are performing.  My gradeb...

I can log into Canvas on my computer and access my classes, but cannot log in on my phone app. (I can log in on the website on my phone). From the app, it says "webpage unavailable" when I type and press on the school's name. If I press "forgot my pa...

How do I leave a group in canvas that is locked. 

I  imported a prior course's data into my upcoming course. The old course had three old/classic-style quizzes. They were the older type; when I last taught this course--spring 2021--Lockdown Browser was not supported for the new quiz. It appears Lock...

How can I mass delete the email in box in Canvas? Trying to clean this out is very time consuming and I don't need any of these emails. Thanks, Lynda Elaine University of Nebraska LincolnInstructor and Grad Student.

In my "Syllabus" tab, the "Course Summary" lists due dates for the current class.  That's fine. But at the bottom it also presents a list of obsolete items -- mostly empty calendars from previous courses!  These show up in the Student View as well an...

Issue: subtitle file not uploading for video files within a page   The videos have been uploaded to a Canvas course and organized on a page. When clicking on "Video Options" the panel comes up and allows a subtitle language and file to be chosen. Aft...

When an assignment has a rubric to use for grading enabled, is there a way to have that rubric automatically open when you view assignments in speedgrader?  If I've enabled a rubric to use for grading, then I want it available for grading on each ass...

Is there any way to email the professor of a past enrollment? I have some questions about my final and how it was graded yet the professor closed the course. Having not provided an email this is the only way I can contact them. I need to choose the c...

Can announcements, or any due dates, be sent to students by way of text messaging?  I have students asking for that feature. 

The guide "Taking a New Quiz" states students can save their progress on an untimed "new quiz" by clicking "return" then later "resume" and finish it later, however my students did just that in front of me and when they clicked resume it had not save...

A student submitted an assignment in two parts - one as a file upload, and the other as a text box entry. I can see the file upload submission, but I cannot view the text box entry. How can I view this text box entry?

Hi! We read about Course templates and we would like to use this option but it remains unclickable even if we removed all enrollments and we went into the settings of the course as an Admin. We checked the permissions to ensure this was not the probl...

I can see this question has been asked a lot in the community but it seems many of the replies contain links to documents that seem, to me at least, rather opaque. In almost every article on the subject it states "Canvas does not support file uploads...

Hello! An instructor I work with would like to REassign a discussion using the REassign button in Canvas discussion however, the button doesn't seem to appear. I checked in other instances and course spaces I'm in and it doesn't appear when availabil...

Some of our students (not all) are having an issue when trying to access Office365 using the in course link.  When they click on the link, they are getting the login button and are being routed to our organizational sign in page.  However, after ente...
