Hyperlinks from Speedgrader in Discussion Boards

[adebord]

This is an issue that I encounter on a daily basis as an Instructional Tech Facilitator who helps teachers and as an Instructor in Canvas.

I love how when I reply to a discussion board the RCE is able to use hyperlinks, but if I want to post private feedback in the speed grader the link is no longer hyperlinked and I have to direct teachers/students to copy and paste my video link into a browser. 

Thanks for any help you can give!

The ability for a teacher to leave hyperlinks into the Feedback box in Speedgrader will allow teachers the ability to provide direct intervention/reteaching as  many educators have digital lessons in Google and Microsoft.

Thanks for the video @adebord, that's super helpful for us to see what's going on. I've forwarded the issue to our Speedgrader team and will update you as soon as I hear back.

Hi @adebord, the Speedgrader team is reviewing this request. At this time, they are unable to speak to a timeframe of when they can address this issue. Have you posted this in the Ideas space? https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Idea-Conversations/idb-p/ideas

Best, Katrina

The active idea conversation requesting this is  Hyperlinks in Assignment Comments  (so it's not necessary to create a new one!), which is the companion to the long-standing and actively monitored idea conversation requesting more formatting capability in Speedgrader comments:  Rich Text Editor in Speedgrader Comments.
