One of our students has a notification on their left side toolbar saying they have 12 inbox messages. When they click on inbox, though, it says "No Conversations to Show." Anyone else have this issue? How can we address this?
Hi @jondouchen,
The only suggestion I would have is to use the dropdown menu that currently says "inbox" to switch to the other options and see if the messages are in one of those areas and not the direct inbox. if that doesn't seem to be the case, I think this would be something to contact Canvas support about so they can investigate and hopefully figure out where the 12 messages are!

However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
