courses disappearing then reappearing
We have received sporadic reports from different users that their courses are disappearing and reappearing. The user typically states that they were editing a course without issue, then went back to My Courses and the course was missing from the list (changing the filter didn't change this). After navigating to Dashboard and back to My Courses, they still couldn't locate the course. Finally, they logged out of Open LMS and back in and the course reappeared.
We have not been able to replicate the issue and have not found any similar reports in the forums (at least not in the last 10 years). Any thoughts as to why this might be happening?

Is the user possibly using the view as ability?
If the courses are currently hidden then a student view would block the ability to see the course causing something like you describe.

This is a good suggestion. This instructor does have a tendency to hide and show elements of his course as a routine part of his practice, but the course itself was definitely visible to students the whole time during his experience. I've also received similar reports (albeit sporadic) from other instructors who do not routinely use the hide/show features within the course and had a similar experience mid-semester when their courses were well into the live portion of their semester. It seems to be a glitch that is resolved by refreshing the browser window or logging out and back in.
