[Syllabus] Dynamically add code to the Syllabus or a Page

0 Likes

All the ability to add code dynamically to the page by using js or some other method.

The thought behind this is at the college level there is a huge chunk of information added to a syllabus.  It would be nice to have the ability to dynamically add the institution content that if changed in the main institution file would show the updated information any time a student clicks on it.  That way instructors or instructional designers don't have to update the content or worry that someone hasn't updated the content.

Hi @dspiel,

A Canvas admin can do this through the global javascript file (either for the root account/all courses, or for specific subaccounts).  I have a short code snippet on my github for this.
