Hello, I am an instructor with a question about batch editing possibilities for modules. I would like to be able to batch rename all the pages inside the module without having to drill down one by one and edit each title. Is that possible? Thanks!

I am attempting to export a gradesheet for a class to Excel and retain the percentages showing in Canvas. The percentages originally showed as points in Canvas; I selected to view them as percentages. Can I keep the percentages on export? Thanks.

What settings do I need to change, or what do I need to do so Canvas does not send out notifications when I make changes to things? Obviously, things like Announcements I want all students to see and want them to receive a notification of, but when,...

I have a teacher who created about 76 assignment groups. Now when you click on the assignment tab Canvas will freeze and eventually you will need to close the tab, it stops responding. I could fix this if I could somehow stop the page from loading bu...

At the University of Wisconsin, we use Canvas. Periodically, we need to copy an older course into a new course shell. The main issue we encounter is that images from the originating course (the one we copy from) may or may not show-up when Students v...

Every time I go to canvas I'm greeted with a pop up asking me to take the student tour. I click it away. Another pop up pops up that I just click away since I never asked to see another pop up. I've done this about 50 times so that's about 100 pop...

My instructor posted an assignment 1 day before it was due when my school requires it to be posted 2 days before it was due. Some of the students didn't see it because the day before we assumed that there was no homework and I was one of them. We con...
