MY course has been working fine up to a certain point. All of a sudden, it is not allowing students to progress or view assignments. I haven't changed anything, and this is a copy of a previous course that did not have these issues.
Hey there @BrielleBrosier ,
Did your previous course by chance have any course, term or section start / end dates set that could potentially be prohibiting your students from accessing their assignments?

When you are creating a quiz and/or also reviewing a quiz in Canvas after the class has taken it, the questions aren't numbered so after you get past the first few questions, there is no way to even tell what number you are on. Can someone change that?
Speedgrader chaning file name when being downloaded. Speedgrader: When downloading a submitted assignment, the file name is being changed to an unrecognizable name — (Student's actual name was part of the file name — changed for privacy.) Ideas???
We are all familiar with the standard Course Calendar, where assignment due dates are automatically added.
