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!

He would like to vertically align the dates to the top of their cell, so he uses the Cell Properties dialog in the RCE, resulting in code like this: <td style="width: 15%; vertical-align: top;"> But after he saves the Page, the vertical-align…
I've seen old posts regarding this question. Can Admin users generate pairing codes on behalf of students?
I am working on utilizing the new Portfolio feature for our review of evidence in the practicum experience. Limitations we have come across are that multiple instructors within a course are not able to see the portfolio, only the instructor who created it. Is this something that will be available in the future? Or is there…
It is possible to import tags or other metadata when importing in a QTI file? I've tried everything I can think of, but it seems to get stripped out every time. Are any metadata types allowed? I can bring in a batch of tags questions or manually tag each one. Tagging each one is not an option. I'm using New Quizzes, so I…
Is there a setting where I can hide my students grade summaries on the dashboard but keep the individual category grades visible for them on their main grade page? I'll describe a little below. I want the overall course grade to be hidden from my course image on the students' dashboard with all their other courses, but I…
