As of this morning, we are seeing "credentials" repeated 5 times on every course navigation menu. We are seeing this only in our production environment. It does not exist in test or beta. What changed???
I don't see it in my instance.
Did you ask your local Canvas Support if they are aware of it? In my institution a similar thing happened a few months ago (with a different navigation button being duplicated), and it was an internal issue.
Thanks for responding so quickly -- We submitted a ticket and let our representative know. This is the first time we've seen anything like this. Thanks again!
This affected our institution also. I've heard that this is an artifact from a Badges to Credentials migration. I've got a support case on it (12303533) which was rolled into a larger case, telling me that we're not alone in it. If you check your institution apps you'll see a bunch of new externals added called "Badgr at badgr.com: Badgr in Canvas LMS". I'm guessing the Dev Key necessary to power these is inherited. I didn't remove the apps, but I did turn off all of their placements, and am currently awaiting Instructure guidance to complete this...
We're also seeing the same -- each one says Created: May 14, 2025 when I click through, so if you're seeing similar it's probably an error with an automated process?
I found this article in the Credentials product blog:

Long story short- updates rolling out on May 12 and expected through May 23. However, since we aren't using this product and had the Badges course nav link hidden, we really need Credentials hidden. (I do realize that instructors can manually make it not visible, but we're going to deal with unhappy users.)
Same here. I've sent a help desk ticket in. I suggest you send one as well so they are made aware of the issue or know to update us on why it is listed multiple times and the value-add of this (???)
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…
I am trying to create a skill tracker in Canvas for a veterinary technology program. My students need to perform a technical (Hands On) skill in front of the instructor. I want the student to then submit an assignment, or quiz/survey answering a few questions about the specific scenario. The assignment/Quiz is ust to…
First Feature Suggestion: Display Last Date of Attendance when using Canvas Attendance Tool One of the required pieces of information I must collect is the last date of attendance when a student violates my attendance policy. This date is federally required for institutions to determine a student’s withdrawal date under 34…
