How can I turn off the Release Notes Updates flag that pops up next to the HELP icon located at the lower left of a Canvas page?They are not relevant to me and are too numerous and technical.
Hi @ScottSwenson,
The Canvas team at your school/institution could disable the release notes from appearing on the help menu for all users (we did this at my institution), but I don't believe it's something you can change for just yourself. You could use the toggle switch so you don't see the unread-style number next to the help icon, but I think that's about all you can do for yourself.
Hope this helps, even if it's not the news you were hoping to get.

This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
I tried the Quick Reassess feature today. Once I approved the questions and created the assessment it went to the tracker for Block 1. But I can't find the new assessment in my assessments to add to Blocks 2 & 4. If I have to recreate for each class, they won't have the same questions. I also cannot find the option to…
