In my "Syllabus" tab, the "Course Summary" lists due dates for the current class. That's fine. But at the bottom it also presents a list of obsolete items -- mostly empty calendars from previous courses! These show up in the Student View as well and they should not be there at all.
See attached screenshot.
How do I remove them?
@khaber The only way I know of to get rid of those is to actually remove the assignment/discussion/quiz from Canvas. That area is auto-populated from what is in the other areas of Canvas so if that deliverable exists in the relative area of Canvas still, then it will show on the course summary.
Hope that helps!

These are actually Zoom meetings that were copied here when "Import all content" is chosen during import.
To delete them, click on any one of them, then click on "Undated" at the lower left. This opens the item and a "Delete" button appears. Apparently this must be done one-by-one.
@khaber are they on the calendar somewhere or what were they? Assignments in the old class that do not exist in this one?
In the future, remember to Import "selected" content from one course to another.
I think it's crazy that Canvas includes "Calendar Items" in the "import all content" function. NO ONE wants to import old Calendar Items. This is one of the many idiosyncrancies that the Canvas developers should fix.
When you are creating a quiz and/or also reviewing a quiz in Canvas after the class has taken it, the questions aren't numbered so after you get past the first few questions, there is no way to even tell what number you are on. Can someone change that?
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
I am trying to create a skill tracker in Canvas for a veterinary technology program. My students need to perform a technical (Hands On) skill in front of the instructor. I want the student to then submit an assignment, or quiz/survey answering a few questions about the specific scenario. The assignment/Quiz is ust to…
