My +people button is inactive and I have no idea why. Any suggestions? I need to share the content with another teacher but it won't let me add them to it
@MaureenSacco -
You have to make sure that the course is active. On the settings navigation link, look at the availability dates of the course. If the current date is outside of the range, you will need to change them so that they represent the current dates. I don't think the course needs to be published, but If the dates are valid, and you still can't add then publish the course and try again.
If all of the above is already true, I would contact your canvas administrators at your institution to find out why you cannot add people to a course. I am not an admin, so I do not know if it is possible for them to turn of the +people feature on courses at your institution.

At my community college, I must request permission to add another instructor to my class, and thar instructor has the role of Designer.
The primary concern is student privacy. If the other instructor comes into the class as an Instructor, then he or she would be able to see the students' grades.
The Designer role allows the other instructor access to content, which is all that is needed here.
If your colleague just needs a few items, you can "send" those items without adding him or her to your course. It's very easy to "send" content.

Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
