I just copied a course and it copied duplicate modules. When I try to delete one of the duplicated modules, it deletes the assignments within both modules. HELP!
Hi @PatriciaTurnbul ...
When you delete a module, it shouldn't delete the content in your course. The "Modules" screen is simply a screen that allows you to create your modules and organize your course content (Pages, Discussions, Assignments, Quizzes) within those modules. I just tried deleting a module with three items in it, and the pages still remained. On your "Modules" page, you can "Remove" items from a module...but that doesn't completely delete them from the course. When you delete a module, it doesn't completely delete the items within the module from the course. Those items are still on your Pages, Discussions, Assignments, and/or Quizzes pages. However, the reverse is not true. If you go to your "Assignments" page, for example, and delete an assignment, that same assignment would be deleted from module on the "Modules" page.
All of this being said, can you look on your "Assignments" index page to see if the assignment is still there? If you can't find it, then you might try the /undelete trick...which you can read more about here: Undeleting things in Canvas.
Hopefully you'll be able to get your content back soon. Keep us posted here in the Community...thanks!

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…
