Canvas Course Sidebar από Zach R

Adding Courses
To load all courses by default, visit https://<yourschool>.instructure.com/courses and press the "Add All to Sidebar" button. This will load the IDs, titles, and colors from this page. This will not overwrite any existing configured courses. You can also add courses manually using the "Add" button in the extension window

Editing Courses
Courses have three properties:
1. Name - This is what will appear in the sidebar, it's best to be concise
2. ID - This is what determines the link for the button, it can be found at the end of the URL for the course's homepage (https://<yourschool>.instructure.com/courses/<courseid>)
3. Color - If the "Color Sidebar" setting is enabled, this will be the color that the sidebar is set to when the course is active

These will automatically save whenever they're updated, and you should see the changes reflected when you reload your Canvas page
