Somehow, I suspect data were deleted from a course. Is there a possibility to restore data / reset the course content to an earlier date?
@SimonePeters123 Welcome to the community!
Here are some ways you can attempt to restore data:
1) You can append "/undelete" to the end of the course URL. So if your course URL was XXX.instructure.com/courses/123456, you'd just go to XXX.instructure.com/courses/123456/undelete -- this will allow you to restore pages, assignments, etc. but there may be still a lost of data.
2) The other way to restore data is to look at your BETA instance, as long as no one's worked in there. The BETA instance is always copied over every Saturday from your live instance. Click here for more information on the BETA instance.
Hope this helps!
In addition, if you deleted text on a Page, you can see the history and restore:

We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
