When using the import course feature, it does not import the dates assignments are due, nor does it import the sections the assignments are assigned to. When i previously created courses from the template course all the information was imported.
Hi @Mjconwayjr
I have noticed some changes in the import process recently, from even just the look and feel of it through to the general process. This guide about adjusting dates in the import process might be of interest to you.
Let me know how you go.
Thanks

Hi @Mjconwayjr,
There were some conversations (for example, https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Question-Forum/Importing-Section-Due-Dates/td-p/644434) that have happened recently in the Community about the course import feature, sections, and assignment dates.
If I recall and if I understand your original post, when dates are assigned assignments to specific sections in "course A", when "course A" is imported into "course B" (which also has at least one section, whether the default section or another section intentionally made either by the GUI/SIS/CSV) those dates are not assigned to assignments because the import process does not know what to assign them too.
Am I understanding you?

I need to be able to batch edit assignment due dates by section, but right now Canvas can't filter by section for batch edit. My only option is now to manually (tediously) edit due dates for each assignment individually.
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…
So, we have encountered a few assignments where the Speedgrader presents the teacher with the "Empty Course" page, even though the course is not empty. I have discovered two New Quizzes in the same course where this has occurred, despite multiple students being assigned (at Module level, which passes the permission down to…
A teacher has expressed concerns with the recent update. Exact concern is as follows: "My Canvas has been acting glitchy since the last "update." For instance, when I grade essays the highlight and cursor tools do not always work. I have to try highlighting several times,or come back later to finish. It's told me I "ran…
