I apply these colors for my modules and they reflect on the page, but when I refresh the page they change to another color, why?:(
Original

@chriscas Thank you for helping me on this 🙂
Hi @Zrackkk,
I'm slightly confused by the terminology you're using. A module in Canvas wouldn't really have a corresponding color anywhere in Canvas that I am familiar with.

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…
