Hi! I've submitted a jpg photo to be used for my canvas account, but it renders as an empty html image tag. When I try to go to the original file source hosted by canvas everything looks okay, so I'm wondering why it won't display on any other page.
Hi @Matthew_Medford ...
Personally, I don't really associate *.pdf files with images. Yes, you can insert images into *.pdf files (similar to how you could insert images into MS Word documents), but I don't usually try and upload images via *.pdf documents. Instead, I would recommend saving your image as a *.jpg, *.png, or *.gif format. Then, re-try uploading your image to your profile picture in Canvas. I think you'll have better success with one of those formats instead. And, in fact, if you take a look at this Guide, How do I add a profile picture in my user account?, you'll see in the light blue box at the top of the page the suggested file formats to use for uploading your image.
I hope this will be of some help to you. Sing out if you have any other questions about this.
Take care...be well.
@Matthew_Medford How was this issue resolved for you? We're experiencing the same issue currently. It appears to be across our institution.
@AmandaDomogalik We seem to be experiencing similar issues! We see what could be confused with "alt tags" or the dreaded broken small image icon. If I try safari on my phone I have no issues, Firefox v 144.02 and Chrome v 141 have the issue on my windows 11 PC. A Coworker is using a windows 11 PC and Firefox v144 gives her no issues.I talked with support and they said it could be a cache/browser/install issue. I am going to follow up after seeing your message here
I assigned the first draft of an assignment. Each student got rubric comments from me and from one peer. The Speed Grader view gives me a "Select Rubric" menu, allowing me to toggle between my comments and the peer comments. But the Gradebook's "Bulk Download Rubrics" command generates a CSV file with only the peers'…
Hi all, I'm looking to see if this has happened for anyone else. A student completed a Classic Quiz and one question was counted wrong that should not have been. In the quiz settings, the instructor entered 9 possible answers for this question. The student entered one of these answers. However, that particular question was…
Looking for the addition of partial credit for alternative format questions in Canvas, like ordering and category/matrix. We can only do it in close drop down, matching, and multiple response.
Has anyone found gaps in their course analytics ? I'm currently seeing missing last view date, last participation date, and participations at overall course level, even though the same data is present at individual week and student level. Am also seeing truncated asset counts ie we are seeing only the global header counts,…
It would be very beneficial for observers (parents) if they could view instructor comments. If they had access to this information, they could better understand the grading of individual assignments and better understand the errors that their student made.
