Because Panopto videos cannot play in the Canvas Teacher for Android app, when editing a page in the Android app, the page saves plain text instead of the videos. This bug has been reported to Canvas Support; please contact the office of Online Education and Educational Technology (
OEET@butler.edu) if you would like to be notified when the bug is fixed.
Revert a Page to a Prior Version
Canvas retains page history and pages can be reverted back to prior versions. If you edited a page and noticed that your videos are missing, first take note of your edits. Then follow these steps to restore an older version of the page:
- On the Canvas page, select the three-dot menu.
- Select View Page History.
- The Revision History panel will appear on the right of the screen. Click one of the dates to preview that page version.
- Select Restore this revision.
- Close the Revision History panel by selecting the X.
