How do I edit my name for the bio of my class? It is not clickable. thanks!
Hi @pjmcginty ...
These are the Guides for editing your Canvas profile:
Both Guides indicated, "If you are allowed to change your name..." If you are not able to change your name, then you're going to need to work with the University of San Diego's Online Learning / eLearning / Distance Education team, and they should be able to help you. I found a page on their website that might be helpful:
Canvas @ USD SSC (All Programs) – University of San Diego Online Degrees
There's an e-mail address at the top right corner of this page that you might be able to use to get quick help.
Good luck to you!
Hello @pjmcginty !Are you talking about the course card on your dashboard page, or are you in your course settings?
If you are looking to change the nickname of the course on the dashboard, then you will need to click the breadcrumb icon on the top right hand corner of the course card, then change it there.
If you're talking about your course settings, if it is not clickable, your canvas administrator disabled this feature and it is not changeable. If you must change the entire name of your course, reach out to your administrator.
Reach out if you have any questions!

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…
