Someone changed a Canvas Theme in a subaccount, causing several CSS issues. Is there a way to determine who made the change?
Hi @RobinKouvaras,
I'm afraid that there is no log or audit trail of who made most administrative changes on the system.
I agree with @mzimmerman that there's really no audit trail in Canvas for this kind of thing. However, if you have a small number of administrators or a suspicion about who made the change, you could check the page views for each of those users to see if any of them visited the theme area ({canvas_url}/accounts/{id_number}/brand_configs) around when you suspect the change was made. There is little reason to go to that area unless a change is being made, so I suspect you'd be able to track down who did it with this method, unless you have a lot of admins and it would be too much time to search each one.

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…
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…
