In the past, a message popped up that I had unsaved edits, but this time that didn't happen when I closed a tab inadvertently (with Canvas still open). Is there a trick for recovering my edits? In this case, it is a dscussion I was editing.
@lbranen-ahumada -
I do not think it will be possible. Only way I know of to get back deleted information is with undelete. However, the item needs to have been saved first. I saved a discussion and deleted it. it showed up with undelete. I then created a discussion and edited it, did not save it. let it sit for about 5 minutes (hoping for auto save) and then closed the window without saving. That discussion did not show up with undelete. By the way, when I closed the terminal window with the unsaved discussion, I did not get a pop up about unsaved worked.
For using undelete, go to the home page for the course and then type /undelete at the end of the url (after the course number)
Maybe someone else knows how to recover lost unsaved information, but I do not think it is possible

Thanks for the information! I'll give undelete a try and see what happens.
Among all the things that I wish Canvas had is that one! Is it something that is been worked on? We had it in Blackboard (legacy) and I sorely miss and need in Canvas (we just transitioned to it from Bb). Please add this very needed feature!
I have Canvas set to drop the lowest quiz score, however, my students can only barely tell that the grade text is slightly grey when dropped. Can it have a tag like the "missing" and "exempt" ones in the student gradebook?
My Canvas shell has three different sections that all meet at different times throughout the week. 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…
