Hi @DrNufer , is the recording available for this webinar? If so, can you share it please? Thank you!

Hello! I suggest giving Admins the ability to enable or disable system generated notifications. These notifications are, for example, grading policy changes. We heavily use blueprints, and when an update was made to the weights of the assignment groups in the assignments page a system generated notification was sent to students causing all kinds of confusion for them. If we would have known that updating the assignment weights would have sent a system generated email to the associated shells we would have thought about it twice before making the change. Changes to blueprints are necessary for our organization and there's no way around that. Thanks for reading!

Thank you @Stef_retired!

@Stef_retired, Thanks for tagging the idea here, it's a great one! What we are trying to accomplish is something different within the blueprint course. Best, Daniela

Hello! We would love to see a permission to disallow or prevent users enrolled in blueprint courses from syncing unsynced changes. When a user is enrolled as a Teacher or Designer in a blueprint course, they are able to toggle the blueprint button and push unsynced changes. I'd like the ability to remove this permission so that LMS Admins can push these unsync changes instead of users with Teacher or Designer roles. We are trying to prevent major issues such as deleted files or incorrect updates from being pushed to the associated shells. Thanks!

Seems like this idea was suggested back in 5/31/2018 in the Inbox Replacement Strings page. It's a shame to see Canvas not get with the times. Their competitor D2L Brightspace has this feature, not sure why its taken Instructure so long to develop this feature request. Its proven fact that student engagement increases when messages are personalized. We'd like to see the Canvas inbox messages to have similar if not better features of Mailchimp such a read receipts. Knowing who has or has not read the message and how many users have read the message would be helpful data to have. Thanks!

daniela_aguado · ‎03-09-2021

I am also in favor of this feature. I'd like to add the ability to send read receipts to the sender or have some kind of way to see who has or has not read the message.

Hello Canvas Community! I'm looking for a solution, possibly an LTI or third party app integration that adds a feedback button at the bottom of every page in a course. Similar to the Canvas community pages, each page is equipped with a feedback button at the bottom of each page. Is there something out there with such functionality? Thanks!

daniela_aguado · ‎01-07-2021

Hello Canvas Community! Is there a third party LTI out there that creates an Instructor page based on the Teacher enrollment of a course? This would take all the users with Teacher role and create a page with that particular teachers' Canvas profile. If there is such a tool out there please let me know. This will reduce the burden of manually creating "Meet Your Instructor" pages. Thanks!

Hello! From my understanding, the page below (Edit Assignment Dates) can only edit assignment available/due/until dates for sections. In this page, can differentiated assignment available/due/until dates be assigned for sections when no dates have been assigned to assignments? Is there a way to streamline assigning dates to multiple assignments for multiple sections? As it stands now, seems like instructors are to add dates to assignments from each assignment when using sections to differentiate dates. Can a feature be added to the page below, where one can add a section and dates for that particular section? Is there a way to do this via import? Thanks!

Hi @erinhmcmillan, The iCal link to the Canvas release calendar is not working for us. Can you help? Thanks!

daniela_aguado · ‎09-01-2020

I agree with @amychapm the Course Designer or Designer role however Canvas wants to call it should be able to add/edit/delete quizzes in the new quizzes platform. It's really annoying to have to create a new role based on the Teacher role because the Designer role does not offer this permission.

Hi, Does anyone know if it is possible to create a webhook for new users? Thanks!

daniela_aguado · ‎08-19-2020

Hi! In the new quizzes platform, essay question types have the ability to add grading notes, however, file upload question types don't. Can file upload question types also have the ability to add grading notes?

daniela_aguado · ‎08-12-2020

@langlangcat, thank you, the site is very helpful. I also found a site that converts GIFT format into QTI. However, I don't see the option to create a Stimulus question type from GIFT to QTI. The quiz I'm creating has mostly Stimulus question types. Thanks again!

daniela_aguado · ‎08-11-2020

Thank you @langlangcat. Is there a tool I can use to format questions in QTI? Only to make it easier to add questions to Canvas, and not have to deal with the painful copy/paste.

daniela_aguado · ‎08-10-2020

Can questions be formatted in a certain way to import them into a quiz and/or question bank?

daniela_aguado · ‎06-03-2020

It would be nice to be able to export account-level question banks to GIFT format. Without having to export content from Canvas then import it back to another LMS to get it to GIFT format. stefaniesanders‌

Thanks @Chris_Hofer ‌! We will definitely report the issue to Zoom even though we think we found what was causing the issue. My Zoom admin noticed the meeting duration was set to 0 minutes and suspects this might have caused the Join button to disappear. Those bullet points were very helpful, I'd like the zoom meetings to appear in the Canvas Calendar, something to look into. Best, Daniela

daniela_aguado · ‎05-02-2020

Hi! I'm hoping to get some insight on this. We are using the Zoom LTI Pro integration with Canvas. The Join button in the Zoom page within a course seems to disappear once past the start time. Is there a way to keep the Join button at least 10 or 15 minutes after the meeting start time? This is for students who are late to the Zoom meeting. I know we can't correct student lateness but at least it gives them a chance to join the Zoom session after class start time. Any thoughts?
