Hi everyone, We use Canvas to share study material (videos, PDFs, reading material) and quizzes with doctors enrolled in our courses. Our usual workflow is to add the doctor to the course, wait for them to accept the invitation, and then assign them the required quizzes. I’m having a problem with one student. I added her…
It would be revolutionary if you could maybe include a link to the actual canvas studio instead of vague gestures at instructions that are completely unfollowable and leave the reader with literally no better idea about how to access canvas studio than before reading it. While this is very frustrating, I'm almost more…
This discussion was created from comments split from: Instructure Community Weekly Highlights (October 13-19, 2026).
Searching through 'All Pages' can be cumbersome, especially as the year goes on. Is there going to be a folders feature added so that pages can be sorted and categorized, similar to how documents and images can fall under different umbrellas?
I used to be able to quickly see, at a glance, what assignments were ungraded in SpeedGrader because they had a little orange dot next to them. I would also easily be able to skip over the unsubmitted ones. But now… What's up with this? Who approved this change? I don't like it. They could have added the written labels…
“You can do what?” That’s the puzzled look I get almost every time I show Canvas users how to add a blank line to a module. Blank text headers could easily be called a hidden feature. My guess is they’re not well known. So what would a blank text header even be for? Here are a few uses: Add space between parts of a module.…

I attempted to download my courses from the old Canvas Free-for-Teacher platform during the July 28–29, 2026 access window, but technical errors prevented me from completing the downloads. I understand that Instructure acknowledged problems during that period and that other users experienced similar difficulties. I have…

These deploys take place every two weeks and can be tested in the beta environment before the production deploy date indicated in the title of this document. New to deploy notes?

I have entered several Outcomes at the Admin Level and created rubrics from them (also at the Admin level). However, I can not find out how to add them to my course. Old notes are obsolete…
For those of you who use the Learning Mastery Gradebook in your courses, what are your thoughts about the updates? Do they improve your understanding of students' outcome mastery? What about the interface? The old version certainly needed some improvements. I did like the pie charts, however. Hovering the mouse pointer…
Can Canvas Catalog provide admins with a "View As User" capability, similar to the "Act As User" ability within Canvas LMS? This would be useful to help troubleshoot issues within Canvas Catalog reported by students. If this capability already exists, pardon my apparent ignorance. I haven't found it yet.
