Hello, I just tried to import an old course so that I could use some assignments again from last year. However, even though the status shows that the import has completed, there are no materials in the new course. Can anyone help troubleshoot?
First you might try double checking to make sure that you are importing the correct course and semester. We import all of the online courses for our college. Occasionally we choose a course either from the same semester we are in, or a future semester, neither of which has content yet. So the import appears to be working correctly, but there was nothing in the initial course to import.
The other possibility is with the settings. You are given the option to import all content or choose specific content. If you select the choose specific content you will get a second window which will require you to select each item you want to import, and then import the content.
If neither of those options are helpful, you might try exporting the course that you want to import as a course file, and then importing the course file, rather than importing from the course.
If none of those options work you'll have to contact support. You should have a ?/help button in your course. They can look at your specific situation. Good luck!
Hi there @RaginiShah ,

This can happen sometimes. Depending on the size of the course upload, it can take a long time for everything to appear. I just want to verify -- did you happen to see any alerts or warnings aside from it saying it was completed? Sometimes things can't be imported correctly, and it needs you to review certain things.

While typing an Announcement, sometimes midway, we need to check something for which we click on Grades or Assignments. Then when we return to Announcements, what we types simply disappears. It will be very helpful to have a DRAFT option under Announcements so that the unfinished message is not lost.
I have used Blackboard, Moodle, and now work at a Canvas university. When grading quiz items. I want the ability to view all of the students' responses to a single item at once. This could allow consistency in grading and speed up the grading process. This functionality has been available in Moodle for over 10 years.
I'm an instructional designer working with a faculty member who wants all of the students in the class to work in groups to complete a feedback form together, with contributions from each group member. The way the Canvas Collaborations instructions are written, I don't understand how to make this happen. Do we set up a…
Has anyone ever encountered this error in the Admin Analytics Student section?
My class policy is that late assignments can be accepted at professor discretion, but they will have a 50% penalty. This is a gate you pass through once, and there are no further penalties. If it's late, you simply get 50% deducted from whatever the score was. This happens regardless of whether it's 5 hours late or 5 weeks…
