How can I restore the Canvas template after it has been removed?
@LeslieMorris1
There are several ways one could interpret your question, which is why @Chris_Hofer asked for clarification.
If you have a course that was acting as a course template and the course was deleted from Canvas, then the How do I restore a deleted course in an account? lesson in the Canvas Admin Guide can help you restore the course itself.
If you have a course that was acting as a course template and the course is no longer acting as a template, you make sure that course is enabled as a course template and then select it as the course template for the account.
Someone might use the word "template" to refer to something else. Canvas has Course Templates, Blueprint Courses, and Canvas Commons that all act as forms of content distribution. That page, has links to resources for all three at the bottom. Those involve a native Canvas template solution.
People frequently mean words in ways other than the way Canvas uses them, so "template" to you may not mean a course template from Canvas. It might mean a template that you see within Canvas. Many schools utilize a third-party solution such as Cidi Labs DesignPLUS for templating.
Getting a better idea of the problem will help people provide a solution.

Instructure (the folks that make Canvas) doesn't provide a "template" right out-of-the-box, so this is probably something that someone at your school created to use as a template inside your course(s). Any additional details would be helpful...thanks!
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
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…
