I cannot assign a due date to the class for the 18th because the "section" ends on this day even though class still runs until 20/6. Is there any way to solve this?

Hi @GemmaDUNN,
That will likely be something you'll need to speak to your school/institution Canvas team (usually in the eLearning / IT / Digital Education areas) about. In most information flows, course/section dates come from your school/institution student information system (SIS). In this case, it may be that the system has the wrong end date for the section, or there may be confusion about that the real end date is. Your local team will be able to investigate and provide the best info. You could also follow the How do I change the start and end dates for a course guide and see if you have access to change the dates yourself (though I'd urge caution, as this could create unintended consequences later if you're not meant to adjust the dates).
I hope this info helps!

Thank you so much, I will check it out!

We are looking to use the portfolio tool as a foundation for our new Master of Organizational…
We use course pacing to manage due dates, because we run ~20 something courses each quarter and manually setting due dates would be a nightmare. Several courses have two core topics. We want to allow students to choose which of these they will pursue first. Is there any way to configure multiple course paces with different…
Hoping someone can explain for me. We're using pacing to avoid manually dating regular assignments each quarter, but the dates I see are based on when the course was instantiated, while students see dates based on when they were added to the course by [backend software I don't know anything about, presumably]. If I set…
Has anyone else had issues with an influx of duplicate users in Canvas? Ours is currently in the form of an email that already exists, becoming a new user - and not automatically merging with the user ID with the same email that also is linked to our SIS ID correctly as well. For example, user 1 is xyz@gmail.com without a…
