Canvas gradebook has, in the past few days, started trying to auto-fill grades on the gradebook on Chrome. Another post (https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Question-Forum/How-Do-I-Turn-OFF-Canvas-Gradebook-Suggestions/m-p/599627?attachment-id=9699) determined that this was the Chrome extension trying to auto-fill addresses. While disabling that would solve the situation, it is not an actual solution, as I want Chrome to save addresses on other websites. Is there a reason Canvas gradebook has to treat forms this way? Especially as, until a couple days ago, it didn't?
Can you use a different browser for the Canvas grade book? That would avoid the plug-in auto-filling grades.
Hi @AndrewTodd,
I don't know of any Canvas changes that would have affected this behavior in the last few months, nor have I heard anything about this from faculty at the institution I'm an admin at. This does seem like something very browser or add-on specific to me more than something with Canvas itself. @RecycledElectro's suggestion of using a different browser for Canvas might be the easiest thing to do if you can't figure out how to get Chrome to behave the way you'd like anymore.
I know this isn't necessarily the best "solution" but since it's a possibility, I'm going to mark it as such for now. Feel free to continue to give feedback and updates here though!

Yesterday, after much trial and error…I concluded the new quizzes matching choice options do not work as I expected, and have used with other LMS. I thought that I could provide students a matching choice quiz with multiple attempts that would report incorrectly answered matches on the first attempt, and display the…
I have seen documentation that says you must recopy your iCal link and resubscribe when you are enrolled in new classes, does this mean my iCal feed link changes each time, or do i just need to re-fetch the .ics file?
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…
