Hello community!
In the side menu of the courses, I'm trying to change the name of "modules" to "Start your Course", but my Javascript is not working. Has anyone had this case and can help me?

Hi there, @RaianeSilva ...
I can understand why there might be a need/want to change the course navigation menu names...one of which is to make things as easy as possible for your students to know where to begin. Thus, the reason for the custom name of your menu button. However, IMHO, it's important to keep in mind that custom names won't appear in any of the official Canvas documentation. So, for example:
Have you considered making your "Modules" page the first page your students will see when the log into your course or when they click on the "Home" page?
How do I change the Course Home Page? - Instructure Community (canvaslms.com)
That might be another option for you, and you could have a module at the top of the page that includes any content you want students to read right away. Then, they can go through each of your other modules from there. Just a thought...and maybe you are already doing something similar already.
Anyway...my $0.02 for what it's worth. Let Community members know if you have more questions about this...thanks!
Ok, gang. Three years later, and I'm trying to do this, too. But with the Syllabus link in the left nav. I fully understand all the reasons why we shouldn't do this. But we need it as a backup for instances where "Syllabus" might still appear even though we've been hiding it from the left nav with js in the browser versions.I feel like this is kind of right but also really wrong because it doesn't work
Any ideas? I have only really ever cut and paste javascript and I have css experience, but I'm a bit rusty.Thanks!
Yesterday, after much trial and error…I concluded the new quizzes matching choice options do not work as I expected, and have used with other LMS. I thought that I could provide students a matching choice quiz with multiple attempts that would report incorrectly answered matches on the first attempt, and display the…
I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…

Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
