NEW QUIZZEZ (already made) assignments will not open

I have many quizzes made using the new quiz format. I have been using them successfully all year. now this morning they will not work. I get an error message saying "Couldn't find valid settings for this link" When I go to make a new one, it automatically reverts me to the old, classic quiz mode. Is anyone else having this issue?

If you don't see that setting, contact Canvas Support at your school, since the availability and default settings for New Quizzes is something that is controlled by the campus Canvas admin.

Rubric no longer collapses
Previously on the built-in rubrics, vertical view, the rubric items were collapsed. You could expand them to see details of each point value. Now they are expanded by default and I see no way to collapse them. When a teacher is grading 20 of the same assignment, he or she knows what each point value entails. By having them…
