Hi, how do you get the "move" option in the Discussions section? I need to re-order my discussion posts but I don't have a move option and when I simply drag and drop the discussion does not stay put. Any help is appreciated!
Hi @KristenRoye,
You need to drag the discussions up to the pinned area on top to be able to customize the order of them. The regular "discussions" section is ordered by recent activity, and I don't believe there is a way to alter that. When you move your discussions to the pinned area, you'll be able to put them is any order you want, much like you can in the Assignments and Modules areas of Canvas.
Hope this helps! I'm going to mark this as the solution, but if it doesn't work for you for some reason, please respond back here to let us know!

Have you organized your course content into unit or weekly modules? Some of my classes have lots of discussions. However, I never ever click on Discussions, and I have disabled "Discussions" from my students Course Navigation Bar. The students and I both access them from our modules as well as our To-Do Lists.
To be honest, I think it's a waste of time to try to reorganize the discussions. It's not necessary.
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…
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…
