How to Unpublish Items in Schoology
Keywords: Schoology, Publish, Unpublish Aliases: You are able to Publish or Unpublish items in Schoology. Publish items will be visible to students. Unpublished items are visible to course administrators but not students (members) and will be grayed out. The Publish icon is a green circle located in the Options area of a material type: Using Folder Availability Folder Availability can be set to Published, Unpublished, Publish on start date, or Published during date range, giving you greater control over when the folder (and its material) is available to students. This way, you can create material ahead of time but keep it hidden from students until you are ready to cover the material. If a folder is Unpublished, neither the folder nor its contents will be accessible to students. If it is set to Publish on start date or Published during date range, the folder and its contents will only be visible to students after or during the specified dates. To adjust these settings, follow these steps: Select the Materials tab from the left menu in the Course Profile. In the folder that you wish to modify, click the gear icon to the right and select Edit. In the Availability menu, choose Published, Unpublished, Publish on start date, or Published during date range. If you choose one of the latter two options, choose the appropriate dates in the calendars in the Date row. Click Save Changes to complete. Note: The date and time of availability follow the user's time zone. If a student of a course has a different time zone than your settings, the folder will be available according to the date and time of the student's time zone. You can change your time zone in your personal Account Settings.

Due Dates for Grading Columns in Schoology disabled
Keywords: Schoology, due dates, grading, disabled due dates, gradebook. Aliases: period, grading period, grading columns, grades, feature flag, courses. Issue: Teachers report that they can't set due dates (it is greyed out) for added grading columns in the Schoology Gradebook. Solution: There are 2 parts of the solution. 1) All assignments have to have a Due Date. If you see assignments without a due date ask the teacher to set that. 2) The due date can be activated through a feature flag that is controlled by the Schoology support team. They are the only ones that can do that. So, have the Help Desk (or a Schoology Support Contact for the district) contact support and ask them to enable it for a particular school. This setting can be activated for individual schools or the whole district. After Schoology support enables this setting, the due dates on a Gradin Column should look like this:
