I have just noticed that in Discussions, the "previous" and "next" buttons are shifted to the right. In "View as Student", they are completely covered up with the notification banner.
Is this just for me or a general bug?
Screenshots attached.
Hi @PaulFielding, @JouriEno, and @theJBRU,
I do see this myself too. I was hoping it was associated witht he Checkpoints feature, which is turned off, but it seems to be an independent change. I would recommend that everyone contact Canvas support and report this issue, as they are the official avenue to get things fixed. The more people who report it, the more likely it is to get seen and addressed somewhat quickly.

Hi @PaulFielding
The "Student View" banner is an overlay on top of the existing screen, so it doesn't really do anything to avoid covering up content. You should be able to use the scrollbar on the right side of the window to scroll down to the bottom of the frame.
This appears to be due to an Instructure script that is adding inline styling to the module_sequence_footer. Doing so over-rides any customization that might have been done to the theme.
I always use "Student View" to see whether the students have any issues viewing and navigating the contents of a module and the pages that I publish. Moving between pages, when I reach a discussion, the "Previous" and "Next" buttons disappear from the page and I have to navigate back to Modules and go to the next page to view it. The buttons show fine in the instructor normal view. I use Google Chrome on Windows 11 machine.
I don't see the Previous and Next items at all in Student view (even when I Zoom out so I can see more of the available screen in Student View). Thank you for the heads up. But I do see them when I'm in an instance of Canvas where I'm only a student:
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…
Hi everyone! I would love to hear your suggestions and best‑practice tips on implementing copyright settings. https://embed.app.guidde.com/playbooks/8eYgHHmwTXKMLxDW4LqEDX
