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

Why does it only work for Classic Quizzes? Are there any guaranteed tools that will generate QTI files that will import correctly as New…
Is it possible to change the system-wide notification defaults for a hosted Canvas instance? Since I can't find a way to do it, nor any reference to doing it, I'm assuming not but wanted to make sure before I give that as an answer.
Hi everyone, I had a teacher reach out with an odd (and concerning) LockDown Browser issue and wanted to see if others have experienced something similar. A student was taking a quiz using Respondus LockDown Browser on a Chromebook 300e Yoga G4 (8GB), a 2‑in‑1 device that can flip into tablet mode. During the active quiz,…
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…
We have recently encountered an issue where two students were unable to see the "Take the Quiz" button. These students were taking different exams for different courses within our Testing Center. Both exams required Respondus LockDown Browser and were restricted to specific IP addresses. In both cases, the students were…
