It is not clear how to report of a bug. I am forced to use Canvas and it's buggy. I'd like to at least report the bug and hear that they are known issues being worked on (or not). Where is the right place to report bugs with the Canvas LMS?
Hi there, @ARD2 ...
Most often, you can report a problem with Canvas by accessing the "Help" menu within your school's Canvas environment. This Guide outlines some of the different options that may be available to you:
How do I get help with Canvas?
The one you would be looking for is "Report a Problem". You'd want to be on the page within your Canvas course where you are experiencing the issue and then use the "Report a Problem" link...as this will send some additional metadata along with your ticket/issue.
Also, here in the Canvas Community website, there is a "Known Issues" area where you can see things that Instructure (the folks who make Canvas) are aware of current issues:

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…
This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
