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 there a trick to importing a rubric when using the Canvas rubric template? I download the csv file and fill in the Canvas Rubric template from the Enhanced Grading feature and nothing happens when I try to upload it. It only shows the file name, but not it's size. Yes, it is still a CSV. I've tried removing all symbols…
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…
