You can view all replies in a discussion by scrolling or searching content. Focused discussion replies are shown in hierarchal order; threaded discussions are hierarchal, collapsable, and expandable.

You can allow students to like replies in a discussion. If a discussion allows liking, users will see a Like icon within each discussion reply. By default, liking is available to all users in the course; however, you can choose to restrict the option to graders only.

The Like icon is enabled on a per-discussion basis.

If you forgot to add something to your announcement, you can easily edit and add more information.

Note: Editing an announcement will create a notification on the User Dashboard and Course Activity Stream. If you want users to receive the edited announcement via their notification preferences, you will need to create a new announcement.

Course-level roles include users with permissions in the course. Account-level roles include permissions that affect the entire account as well as courses. Learn how course-role and account-role permissions work in Canvas.
