We do not allow our faculty to change dates, this is all imported data from our Banner system. I have the start and end date disabled from a script I have found on another form from @James . I would love to still have the dates visible but greyed out so that faculty cannot change the option from course and term or change the end date of the course.
My only option so far is to hide the entire field instead
$('#availability_options_container').hide();
This will be a problem as our faculty will be asking to see those dates but it would be worse if they can change dates instead of being able to see them. I feel this would be a simpler fix if Devs just added a checkbox to allow or disable this option in settings or permissions.

Love the new permission granularity options, but I have to agree with others we also handle the course dates by our BCM that pushes the courses over to Canvas every term and also handles all our dates and terms. We have JS that option out for faculty to change dates and disable the option for faculty to remove the "Students can only participate in the course between these dates" . This would cause a lot of issues for us and probably more work for myself fixing all the courses. Having the option to turn this off in the UI permission would be game changer.

Lock down browser is working fine with classic quizzes but only in new quizzes we are getting an error If a student opens lockdown browser first and try to go to the quiz they are prompted with this message to open the quiz first in another browser, but then that takes them into this loop of an error message. We have been having a lot of issues with new quizzes lately, anyone else have suggestions? Thanks

Sorry to bring an old post back from the grave. Is it possible to do a deleted user search based on API calls. The reports are fine but tedious and would be alot easier to do a search based on the API calls. I have not been able to do this and wondering if its possible. Thanks Jason

We run the same setup with SSO on our Production Canvas system with Banner backend. Love to pick your brain on some questions as we are looking to move down a separate instance for Catalog users only. Jason

We are still looking into this issue with login on our Catalog page. Don't think we are ready as a new Canvas school to toss us a discovery page. What I am looking from others on this space, is if they have a separate instance for Catalog users. Our SAML login for our current faculty and students will be working normally. Our rep asked us if we would be interested in separate instance this way Catalog would be pointed to that and would stay all local users. Has anyone has this setup before and give some insight. Thanks Jason

Hello Background, we are new to Canvas this year, soft launch was in January and full launch May 1st. We had been a D2L school for years. Our Canvas data is pulling from Banner CSM. Because of the Covid19 Pandemic our College has been online only running 2 LMS systems until May 1st, all our courses transitioned to Canvas for the summer semester. Discussion I wanted to start, what are other schools doing while extending to online teaching during this pandemic? Specifically any school that is running Banner. Some of our programs had to be extended into the summer semester from winter and probably into the fall semester before they can get back onsite to complete the in class work (Automotive / Aircraft repair) they started. Our concerns are that because of how the courses are running in Canvas with an end date those course will have to be manually adjusted. It is very complicated for us to adjust those dates in Banner from our scheduling department. Wondering how other schools might be dealing with the same issues. We have Javascripted out the option for faculty to adjust the course dates manually as this is handled from our CSM. Thank you for your time Jason

Awesome thanks for the information. We are still new to Canvas so users are not using nicknames, i see your point as it might get used down the road. We find it hard for faculty who have hundreds of courses and cannot search by our course code only by name. All our courses are automatically uploaded and we use the long name and course code. Course code is not searchable in the all courses view. Thanks again, also great work. Jason

This is truly an improvement to the original course listing. I am wondering if its possible to have to columns changed. We don't use nicknames at our college but our courses all have codes. Wondering if its complicated to change the nickname field to the course code for searching? Thanks Jason

Hello Michael Trest Did you ever get this working? We are in the same boat, we have tried to redirect the login to another page, and it works to login to Canvas but it does not redirect us back to the catalog as the signed in user. We are using our College course enrollment system with our SSO authentication. Catalog will be used for extended partners who login with the direct page rather than our authentication page. Thanks Jason

Giving the option to Admin to set a default order on how the navigation pane looks in a course would be great. We would love to lock down the default order for every course, and allow instructors to add to that list and re-arrange the items below the default order. Our school recommends this order: Home Announcements Modules Assignments Discussions Grades People Office 365 It would be nice to sticky this and add or remove items below.

I noticed this thread was a little old, but was having the same questions. Our School does not use the work Syllabus so we have a Javascript to change it to Learning Plan. When i added the Javascript to the browser its working normally but when i add it to the mobile it still says Syllabus. Any reason why it would not take that change. This is what we are using $(document.body).find('a.syllabus').each(function() { //search with links only var tmp = $(this).children().remove(); var text = $(this).text(); text = text.replace(/Syllabus/g, "Learning Plan"); //replace modules with topics $(this).text(text); $(this).append(tmp); }); $(document.body).find('h1.ic-Action-header__Heading').each(function() { //search with links only var tmp = $(this).children().remove(); var text = $(this).text(); text = text.replace(/Course Syllabus/g, "Learning Plan"); //replace modules with topics $(this).text(text); $(this).append(tmp); }); $(document.body).find('button.btn.btn-primary').each(function() { //search with links only var tmp = $(this).children().remove(); var text = $(this).text(); text = text.replace(/Update Syllabus/g, "Update"); //replace modules with topics $(this).text(text); $(this).append(tmp); }); $(document.body).find('span.ellipsible').each(function() { //search with links only var tmp = $(this).children().remove(); var text = $(this).text(); text = text.replace(/Syllabus/g, "Learning Plan"); //replace modules with topics $(this).text(text); $(this).append(tmp); }); Thanks Jason
