Hi community!
We would like to know if it’s possible to configure a course so that it does not automatically appear on the user dashboard when it is created.
Thanks in advance for your help!
You could always wait to publish the course when you want it to appear.. Or you could make it start on a certain date. That is under settings..

Hi @jdurancal,
Without knowing how you are creating Canvas course shells, it sounds like you are publishing them when they are created.

Hi @jdurancal -- can you tell us a little more about the scenario that you have that you want the course to not be visible on the dashboard but still accessible?

After that the teachers then have control of Publishing the course when they are ready for students to view, and if they want to allow students to see their courses prior to the start date, they can change the course Participation from "Term" (which uses the Term dates) to Course (where the teacher can manually add an earlier start date, and needs to enter an end date as well).
There are often different case scenarios at different districts or institutions, so it's always interesting to learn about those, and also interesting to see how different districts manage their LMS.

If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
Among all the things that I wish Canvas had is that one! Is it something that is been worked on? We had it in Blackboard (legacy) and I sorely miss and need in Canvas (we just transitioned to it from Bb). Please add this very needed feature!
Morning! One of the more frustrating aspects of Canvas are groups and the issues that show up when copying courses that have them. But now we have yet another issue. Most recently we have had instances where people mark an assignment/discussion as a group assignment but then do not link the discussion or assignment to any…
A recent change my students have been complaining about is that they now have to wait for Canvas to process submissions so that it can be displayed within the browser before they can check that the submission worked. When the servers are heavily loaded I have seen student need to wait 5 minutes for this. When submitting at…
