As of this morning, we are seeing "credentials" repeated 5 times on every course navigation menu. We are seeing this only in our production environment. It does not exist in test or beta. What changed???
I don't see it in my instance.
Did you ask your local Canvas Support if they are aware of it? In my institution a similar thing happened a few months ago (with a different navigation button being duplicated), and it was an internal issue.
Thanks for responding so quickly -- We submitted a ticket and let our representative know. This is the first time we've seen anything like this. Thanks again!
This affected our institution also. I've heard that this is an artifact from a Badges to Credentials migration. I've got a support case on it (12303533) which was rolled into a larger case, telling me that we're not alone in it. If you check your institution apps you'll see a bunch of new externals added called "Badgr at badgr.com: Badgr in Canvas LMS". I'm guessing the Dev Key necessary to power these is inherited. I didn't remove the apps, but I did turn off all of their placements, and am currently awaiting Instructure guidance to complete this...
We're also seeing the same -- each one says Created: May 14, 2025 when I click through, so if you're seeing similar it's probably an error with an automated process?
I found this article in the Credentials product blog:
https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/The-Product-Blog/Updated-Advancing-Canvas-Credentials-The-Path-from-LTI-1-1-to/ba-p/641217
Long story short- updates rolling out on May 12 and expected through May 23. However, since we aren't using this product and had the Badges course nav link hidden, we really need Credentials hidden. (I do realize that instructors can manually make it not visible, but we're going to deal with unhappy users.)
Same here. I've sent a help desk ticket in. I suggest you send one as well so they are made aware of the issue or know to update us on why it is listed multiple times and the value-add of this (???)
Hello, Instructure Community, In light of the recent ADA Title II updates, my institution has made the decision to switch from Studio to another video capture tool, Panopto, for more accurate automatic captioning as well as many more desired features for course engagement and content management. From my understanding, the…
With the new SpeedGrader UI, we are seeing student names appear in the page title even when the “Hide student names” setting is enabled. When using Classic Quizzes, there is no option within the quiz settings to enable anonymous grading, so we rely on instructors using the hide student names setting in SpeedGrader to…
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???
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…
I tried the Quick Reassess feature today. Once I approved the questions and created the assessment it went to the tracker for Block 1. But I can't find the new assessment in my assessments to add to Blocks 2 & 4. If I have to recreate for each class, they won't have the same questions. I also cannot find the option to…
