Hi @CarolHollinger 

Is your Sandbox in your production platform? If it is you might be able to try the Send To function or Copy to function.

If not, another option is to open your HTML editor on the page you want to copy over. Copy all of that information and in your production platform, create a new page, open the HTML editor again and paste the content in. You will need to upload any images into your portal site as these won't copy across in this method.

Hopefully this assists.

Thanks

Hi @CarolHollinger ...

Have you tried to first export your course?  This process would give you a *.imscc file to download:

Then, you would go to your live portal where your empty course shell is an import the course using the export file you just created.

Do you think this would work for your needs?

Hi @CarolHollinger,

I know that you specifically asked about exporting your course (which would then require importing your course) but have you tried to using the "Copy a Canvas Course" option when using the "Course Import Tool"?

How do I copy content from another Canvas course using the Course Import tool?
