So, I think we are less than a day out from when a notorious & established multi-national hacking group said it was going to publicly release user data stolen from thousands of schools across the country (world, possibly?). Any, uh… anyone got any news out there? Tips…? Best practices…? …🦗..🦗🦗…🦗🦗🦗…🦗… 🏏🏏🏏….🏏
Hello, In looking at many teachers' records, it seems that grades have not been syncing to PowerSchool successfully since last Friday, even though they have it set up to sync automatically each night. Is anyone else noticing this? Is it intentional perhaps? Thanks for your time.
All of my assignments on New Quizzes that were migrated over from old quizzes are not rendering the math equations from the LaTex code. It is only showing up when I re-insert it as an equation and "image" on the HTML editor. This is happening, at least, across my entire department. Is this an issue everywhere and is there…
Hello, Are the email notifications being sent when a course announcement is posted? I have a report of them not working for both students and the professor in a course.

Is there any sign when Beta will return. There is a release scheduled for Saturday, May 16, and I need to test these new features before they hit production. Is there any chance this release will be delayed to allow people more time to review/test these features given recent incidents that may have distracted a few of us…
How to change Per centages of an assignmnet group
Has anyone experienced a Latex rendering issue since the outage? For example, \(\times10^{12}\) should display scientific notation, and \(\mu C\) should display uC, where "u" is the Greek letter mu. In my assignments, the code is not rendering. Did Canvas do something to MathJax during the outage? Is this a known issue?…
I’m in the final weeks of my courses, and I’ve just learned that Canvas FFT accounts have been temporarily disabled due to the recent breach incident. At this point, I don’t know when access will be restored or whether these accounts will even be reopened at all. One of my biggest concerns is the possibility that FFT…

Hello, everyone, I am new here. I am a little worried since I started the FAML100 course at BYU-Idaho through BYU-Pathway, and there is a quiz titled "W02 Quiz Reading Research: Using Abstracts" (It appears in the Grade section, not in Modules) where I have 10 possibilities to do the quiz. I did 8 times, and each attempt,…

I am currently experiencing an issue where a student’s assignment grade appears in Moderate, but it is not populating in the Canvas gradebook.

Hello- Can someone please provide an update about when Free For Teacher will be back up and running? Or an estimate? I have colleagues who use this platform for their higher education programs and their grades are due this week.

Hello, How are you handling grade entry during the downtime? We had to disable Canvas APi in our SIS, Does anyone know whether manual grade passback after re-enabling successfully pushes current grades to Skyward? or do you recommend Canvas as "working gradebook" or shifting fully back to Skyward?
Hello, We just started with Parchment, we have used Badgr in the past. Our badge is showing up as the Canvas icon in LinkedIn rather than the actual institution created badge. Is there a setting that we are missing? We set this up with Canvas support. Thanks.
Due dates and available from / until dates are very confusion. I would like to provide a specific time period during which students can see and get access to an assignment. I would also like to limit the time available to complete the assignment regardless when the student starts. E.g., An assignment becomes available at 7…
With the new options for embedding Studio videos and having the transcript visible, if Studio does not load for whatever reason, are students still able to download the transcript from this screen?
I have multiple Canvas courses to add to the requirements needed to complete a step along a pathway. Is there a way to copy a step or copy the requirements from one step to another?
On April 21 and 27, 2026, the student’s submission page appeared empty on my end. Upon checking again on May 5, 2026, a submission is now visible and is dated April 21 at 9:01 AM. Canvas note: Student Viewed Document: May 4 at 10:21 PM. How is this possible? There is only one submission, and it requires a PDF file upload.…

Hi everyone, I am seeking some insight into how Canvas LMS handles HTTP errors and how they are reflected in the logs versus the user interface.
