Hello
I have searched the guides but I didn't find solution.
I have created a course and when I send the link of it to my students https://canvas.instructure.com/courses/9470284 , they get to an unauthorized error (see screenshot) and they can't see the course. How can I solve it?
A few quick things. Going to mention them even thought you said you searched the guides just in case.
1. Is the course published (on your Dashboard, does it show up under the Published Courses or Unpublished Courses heading). If unpublished, click the button that says Publish to do so.
2. Are you using the free edition or is this something your entire district/institution uses? If the latter, you may have a unique login portal. I see your URL says "canvas.instructure.com" which is the free edition. Our district XXXX.instructure.com (the XXXX is our district initials). If your students are going to your school's URL and you are using the free one, that may be part of the issue. If true, there is a way to easily get what you have made into the other instance.
3. Have you added your students to the course? Do they show up on the People page? You may need to add them. Go to People then select the +People button in the upper right. You can add them via email address.
Those are the first three things that come to mind.
I want to build a page with a sortable table—allowing the students to click on a table header in order to sort the entire table by that column alphabetically/numerically. I've got some experience with HTML and have found some explainers on how to do this, but it doesn't seem to work. Does Canvas presently support sortable…
I teach middle school and my students have recently discovered the ability to play the "what-if" game with grades. They are now obsessed and are playing with it all the time. For the preservation of their sanity I would like to turn it off but don't want to hide their course grade. Is there a way to do so? PLEASE HELP by…
I'm not sure that this is the right place to post about this, but I was wondering if anyone has a fix for how the scroll bar for the entire page covers the scroll bar for just a document viewed in Canvas. The scroll bar for a document will stay visible until one attempts to interact with it, at which point the bar for the…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
After using Canvas for a while, I picked up a small habit that’s saved me some last-minute stress with written submissions. Even when drafts are original, longer explanations and summaries tend to reuse common phrasing, especially in research-heavy assignments. Before submitting, I usually do a quick cleanup pass to reduce…
