Hello! I am happy to share that a fix for this tooltip will be out soon. If anyone would like to receive updates about the fix as it progresses to completion, please submit a ticket with Canvas Support.
Hi DeletedUser...
This is an interesting question, and I checked my own sandbox course to see if I could set a date to close self sign-up. Unfortunately, I didn't find any settings within any of my own groups (via the "People" page that allowed me to do this). So, I came back here to the Community site, and I found an open idea that someone submitted several years ago:

I know this isn't a direct answer to your question, but you might want to read through the proposed idea and two pages of comments to see what people are saying.
Also, the voting process is going through some changes right now, so you'll want to read through this blog entry:

I hope this will be of some help to you...even if it's not a direct answer to your question.
Hi,it seams that if you turn off the self-enrolment in the group settings this will lock the group memberships... that might be a work around for you but it is not an automatic function with a date (which is what you primarily asked for).
OP didn't request new functionality. CANVAS points out in the information provided when selecting "Self sign-up" that an end date for signing up can be set. But it appears there is nowhere to actually do this? I too would like to use this feature. Instructure, please implement this functionality as promised in your current version.
We would like to see this feature resolved as well. We previously have been able to "remove the self-enrol" option after a certain date (as a work around to not having an availability option). Our academics often will want students to have self-enrol for a fixed period of time and then the groups are locked down so they can stay in the same group for the remaining duration of the course
Is it possible to for anyone (student or instructor) to delete a comment on a grade? If so, is there a log on the backend showing that it was deleted?
I am having an issue where my gradebook will not sort the assignments in date order. It seems to only impact discussion board assignments, but I cannot see a rationale for why they will not group themselves with their counterparts. The only factor that is new is that I am using the new feature where I can set a different…
Hi everyone, Is there anyway I can download all discussion posts, similar to downloading assignments? Thank you. Zehra
Could there be a feature added (or maybe there is something out there already) to limit not just the file EXTENSION but the file NAME as well? For example, instead of just requiring "XLSX" extension for JoeSmith-Assignment1.XLSX, we could require "*Assignment1.XLSX" for the filename. This would ensure that students submit…
Among all the things that I wish Canvas had is that one! Is it something that is been worked on? We had it in Blackboard (legacy) and I sorely miss and need in Canvas (we just transitioned to it from Bb). Please add this very needed feature!
