How do I make an assignment visible to students? When I click on the icon it won't let me enable
Hi @MaggieLow ,You are able to make assignments visible by either going onto the assignment's page itself, and clicking 'Publish' in the top right hand corner, go to the assignments list in your course and click the crossed-out circle located on the right to make it published, or if the item is listed in a module, you can publish it the same way you would in the assignments list there, too.
I will provide a link to the guide regarding publishing and unpublishing assignments in your Canvas Course. I hope this helps you out! https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-publish-or-unpublish-an-assignment-as-an-instructor/ta-p/585
OR, when you mean icon, do you mean the 'Assignments' button on your course's side navigation? If that's the case, you will have to go your course Settings > Navigation and then drag and drop what buttons you'd like your students to see. I'll provide you with the link to that information too. Clicking on the icon won't make the button visible to students, it's just a picture telling you it's invisible to them as you likely have it disabled. https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-manage-Course-Navigation-links/ta-p/1020
Feel free to reach out with any additional questions or concerns you may have!Noah
Hello, I'm writing to see if anyone else has noticed this change in Canvas and can explain when and why it happened.

My school district has changed our required Learning Outcomes for all of our courses for this school year. How can I archive the 400+ Learning Outcomes we used last school year so they're still linked to our 25-26 courses but teachers can't use them in 26-27 courses going forward?
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…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
