Navigation - Remove "warning"

[SusanNiemeyer]

I've just noticed that the Canvas folks have added this warning to Navigation.

"Warning: For improved accessibility in reordering Course Navigation elements, please use the Move To Dialog option found in the menu."

I find this new message really confusing and unnecessary.

• This is not a "warning." The word "warning" implies that something bad will happen. This is a "tip" or a "suggestion."
• Where is the "Move to Dialog" option? What "menu?"
• Is there any real need for something new or different? I have trained many colleagues on Canvas. Moving items around has not been an issue. The only real issue is that instructors forget to scroll down and save the changes.

I would suggest that this "warning" is unnecessary and unhelpful and that it be removed, or at the very least, reworded.

🔎 This idea has been archived. While this idea isn’t open for discussion, it is an important part of Instructure’s idea conversations and development process. Contributions like this are valuable as Instructure prioritizes work on new or existing features.

@SusanNiemeyer  Thanks for sharing this feedback about the navigation menu. Would you provide a screenshot or screencast? I've just checked a course in both beta and production, and I don't see this warning, and although I might have missed it, I haven't seen it previewed in our release or deploy notes.

The verbiage appears to be consistent with Canvas documentation (see the Move Navigation Links section):  How do I manage Course Navigation links?

Hi Stef, 

I'm attaching a screenshot. This is from a brand new course shell. You can see the warning in the blue strip at the top. I really don't know what this warning means.

Thanks!
