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.

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.
I am trying to enable differentiation but it is not coming up as an option in my settings. Can someone help?
I have one student who is unable to see the Canvas quizzes. He can click the link to the quiz in the modules list, but the next page is completely empty (except for the usual Canvas navigation on the left). I can't clear the cookies because of the school security settings, but I have tried him on other Chromebooks and…
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.…
I would like to suggest improvements to how collaborations function within Canvas LMS. Currently, collaborations are somewhat limited in how they can be accessed and integrated into course content. One potential improvement would be allowing collaborations to be directly linkable within Pages and Modules. This would make…
We are using the Learning Mastery Gradebook with an rubric on account-level. When we enter the gradebook, the sorting does not make any sense. How can we make the sorting so it makes sense to us. It feels like a randam sorting.
