Why are students not visible in the Roll Call Attendance? When I click on Attendance, there is no way to take attendance. The students' names are not viewable, and the text only reads, "0 Days Total."
Hi @TerriWiley
The attendance tool automatically populates the active students you have in your class. If you go "people" you should see the list of students there. You either have no students in this class or you might have multiple sections and a section with no student.
In this case, make sure on the attendance page, you have the correct section selected to display. If you have a section with no students, no students would show up.
Also, keep in mind the students need to have an active role in the course. If they are inactive or pending they won't show.

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…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
