Hi everyone, I had recently just created a new canvas account and would like to access the theme editor. However, I do not see it available anywhere/
Hi @Tssz and @StevenLankford,
Are you administrators in the root Canvas account of a paid Canvas instance? I ask this specific question because the How do I create a theme for an account using the T... - Instructure Community - 242 does outline the scenarios where the theme editor would not be available... If you don't have an admin role in Canvas, the theme editor will not be available at all. If you are an admin only of a subaccount in Canvas, your root admin may not have enabled subaccounts to have different theming, and thus you won't see the editor.
I hope this info helps!

i have the same problem. i am saving the discussion to find the answer
Hey @Tssz ,
In addition to the information provided to you by @chriscas , I also wanted to share some more information that could potentially be useful. If you recently created an account under the Canvas Free for Teachers instance, you do not have access to any account-level permissions, as you only receive access to course-level settings. Account-level permissions are required for accessing the theme editor. The only people that have access to the Admin side of the FFT instance are Instructure employees.
I hope that helps in some way, too.Noah

A common question we’re hearing is how to effectively back up courses “just in case,” especially with an eye toward…
I am currently experiencing an issue where a student’s assignment grade appears in Moderate, but it is not populating in the Canvas gradebook. I have verified the submission is there, but the grade is still missing from the gradebook view. Is there a known fix or additional step needed to get the grade to display properly?
Hi all, Quick question about the Gradebook color status for a 2-part checkpoint discussion. If a student completes the first due date (initial post) but does not complete the required replies by the second due date, is there any way for Canvas to automatically show a color (e.g., missing/late) instead of staying as…
Canvas Portfolios provide a powerful platform for students to document their learning journey, reflect on their progress, and showcase competencies. However, in programs where multiple educators are involved in assessment—such as team teaching, moderation, or competency-based evaluation—there are important questions about…
Hi There, We are in the process of transitioning to Canvas this year and were wanting to connect with any other MYP schools to see how you setup Assignment and grading under your modules. Or you could guide us to any resources you may have.
