Hi @CarolHollinger ...
Have you tried to first export your course? This process would give you a *.imscc file to download:
How do I export a Canvas course?
Then, you would go to your live portal where your empty course shell is an import the course using the export file you just created.
How do I import a Canvas course export package?
Do you think this would work for your needs?
Hi @CarolHollinger
Is your Sandbox in your production platform? If it is you might be able to try the Send To function or Copy to function.
If not, another option is to open your HTML editor on the page you want to copy over. Copy all of that information and in your production platform, create a new page, open the HTML editor again and paste the content in. You will need to upload any images into your portal site as these won't copy across in this method.
Hopefully this assists.
Thanks

How do I copy content from another Canvas course using the Course Import tool?

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. However, at my institution, we structure our assignments as Challenges that develop over a period of time, rather than just a single deadline. Currently, the calendar only highlights the "end point." It would be a…
The current placement of the "Submit" button creates a "slip" in user behavior where habit-clicking "Next" leads to an accidental final submission. I think Canvas could easily fix this by: Moving the Submit button away from the navigation buttons (maybe above the question instead of below it) and/or Adding a "Confirm…
This is my first time using the new discussion "checkpoints". I'm hoping the multiple due dates are effective, but using the "checkpoints" does seem to create other problems: They only allow for ONE "reply to topic". The way I use discussions in some of my classes is to allow for students to ask MULTIPLE questions per…
