I know there is an auto-save feature for text-entries, but even though my page refreshed after my wifi died, all of my text was gone. Is there any way to recover it?
Hello @CassidyNorton
The auto-save feature isn't 100% fail proof unfortunately. Lapses in connectivity, browser issues, network timeouts, etc. can all cause issues with the auto-save feature. If you've come back to your discussion post and don't see the option to load saved content, it's unfortunately gone. I recommend anything longer than a paragraph to be written out on an application that can be easily recovered and isn't solely relying on your device, connection, and browser working without issues. Hopefully this helps.

Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
