Is there a way to move multiple items from one module to another. I do not want to move all the items, but I do want to move quite a few of them. Instead of clicking on the kebab for each item or dragging each item, I would like to move a group of them at once.
Hello @RobynBryce - while there is value in that feature suggestion, the ability to move multiple items at one time between modules is not currently available in Canvas. The idea was suggested a while back and we can read about the use cases in the comments here: https://community.canvaslms.com/t5/Canvas-Ideas/Modules-Selecting-and-Moving-Multiple-Items-in-Modules/idi-p/373009#comments
As for workarounds, we can drag and drop module items. But that can take a while if there is a large number of items to move.
And there is also the Duplicate Module command but that seems like it would make everything get messy real quick. When using this, everything within a Module is duplicated, and then there is a lot of cleanup such as renaming the copied items, deleting items you do not want a copy of, deleting items you no longer want in the original module. For now, dragging and dropping seems to be the way to go.

Searching through 'All Pages' can be cumbersome, especially as the year goes on. Is there going to be a folders feature added so that pages can be sorted and categorized, similar to how documents and images can fall under different umbrellas?
For those of you who use the Learning Mastery Gradebook in your courses, what are your thoughts about the updates? Do they improve your understanding of students' outcome mastery? What about the interface? The old version certainly needed some improvements. I did like the pie charts, however. Hovering the mouse pointer…

I have now had a few cases of students' responses in New Quizzes not being recorded. Normally, students get a connection error and can restart, but here they get new questions one at a time with no indication of a problem until they try to submit the exam and find that they can't submit it. Students are losing 20-90% of…
