Canvas Assignments Link Not Visible to Students in Navigation

Environment

Canvas
Assignments

Issue

The Assignments tool is enabled in the course settings in Canvas, but still shows as disabled in the left-hand course navigation.

Resolution

This behavior is unexpected and has been reported to Canvas. 

Teachers, TAs, and Designers can fix the problem:

  • Go into an assignment in edit mode
  • Save the assignment (you don’t need to do anything other than click Save)
  • Assignments should now be enabled in the left-hand course navigation
