Hi all,
Is there a way to hide the option "Use as Front Page" to set a page as the front page/home page? I would like teachers to have the option to add the content, but not change the front/home page.
Hello @martin_kabat
Thanks for posting this in the Canvas Community!
This is an interesting question that I really dug into. I was able to look at the Canvas permissions page HERE. The permission for Pages - update actually Allows the user to view page history and set front page. Keeping that in mind, it also Allows user to edit course pages. If you were to disable this for the teacher, they would no longer be able to edit the pages in their courses from my understanding.
I don't see that there is a way to separate the two permissions that this is responsible for. You "might" be able to do something with custom CSS for this to hide that option.
Hopefully this helps!

I am an instructor at MDC with a question (concern) regarding the "fudge points" option on the Canvas quizzes given that the term "fudge" has a connotation of dishonest manipulation or unethical assessing. We know that if we instructors word a question ambiguously or make any instructional error, we may have to compensate…
I recently had an exam provided as a Canvas Quiz in my class, and used some questions copied from question banks from other sections and prior years of the course. Some of those questions had "General Answer Comment" text already saved in them. I changed that text in several questions as I updated/changed the questions.…
