How do I add a photo to my class that appears on my dashboard?

If you're the instructor or course designer, you can do this from the course settings page: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Instructor-Guide/How-do-I-add-an-image-to-a-course-card-in-the-Dashboard/ta-p/624 .

Hi @StacyLebar,

If you (or anyone else) is looking for guidance on how big the image should be, the University of Minnesota (at https://it.umn.edu/services-technologies/how-tos/canvas-add-image-course-card-in) recommends 262 pixels wide by 146 pixels high.

I have found that going with something two (524 by 292) or three (786 by 438) times that size can help when making the picture because you can see more and/or have more detail but it will scale down.

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…
How does "Participation: Course" + manually input start/end dates play with Course Pacing?
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…
Duplicate user being created in Canvas / Catalog
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…
