When wrapping HTML page code in comment tags
and saving, the commented-out code disappears for good.
This is bad, what can one do?
Looks like that's just code that Canvas won't allow unfortunately. Here's another post someone had on this topic.
If you're using comments to hide things on a page, a workaround could be adding a div around the things you're wanting hidden with a display: none attribute.

We assign coursework by section, and teachers enter the transfer grades on each assignment from before the student’s enrollment date.

We have a teacher who, when trying to add discussions to a module, cannot see all of them. One of my theories is that there are too many discussions in the course, as there are over 400, and that the pop-up window can only display a limited number at a time. This is just a theory, though. This is a blueprint course, and we…
A Discussion assignment needs to be able to have more than 2 due dates. A discussion is just that--a back and forth. To be an effective kind of assignment, Instructure needs to modify them so they can have 3 or more due dates. Students also need to be notified when someone posts within their group. Currently, students turn…
This is incredibly frustrating. I use a rubric with imported outcomes to grade my assignments. Each problem is mapped to an outcome, scored on a scale with 4 tiers (the upper 2 tiers granting mastery). For a few of my students—not all—grading a new assignment deletes their earned mastery on an earlier, unrelated…
Cordial saludo Actualmente estamos presentando una inconsistencia en New Quizzes al momento de realizar la migración y posterior edición de las evaluaciones. Específicamente, al intentar modificar una pregunta y eliminar una de sus opciones de respuesta, el sistema no permite ejecutar dicha acción. Con el fin de descartar…
