In the old quiz engine, it was possible to use the option 'Text (no question)' as a question. Putting multiple such questions in a question group allowed for random selection of one of those texts in a quiz.
This was very useful for randomizing input for quizzes. One particular use case is to distribute different data sets to students based on which they should answer the same questions (the use case is in a methods course).
In the new engine this does not seem possible. While you can pull random questions from an item bank, you cannot pull random Stimulus (which seem to be the intended replacement for the 'Text (no question)' option) from an item bank.
Hence the request to add a feature that allows random selection of non-question texts in the new Quizzes engine.

Yes that's it, thank you so much! I'm not a root admin and I see they have inserted some web reader script. I'll contact the root admin then.

Hi all,
I am an Canvas admin at our school, and have the ability to upload custom CSS and JS files via the Theme Editor. When I upload my custom files and click 'Preview your changes', I see that the custom files are applied to Canvas pages. Once I save and apply the theme, however, the custom files are not used anymore.
Using the dev tools of the browser, I can see that after clicking 'Preview your changes' links to the files are indeed added to the source code, but disappear from the source code when changes are saved and applied.
Could this be a permissions issue, or is something else going on?
(I'm using the test environment, but the same problem occurs in the normal environment.)
Thanks!
Anne Albert
