'Can't Join Class' Error Message

If a student tries to join your class and gets the message:

"Can't join class. You no longer have access to this class. Please contact your teacher for more information." They may have been blocked from your class.

To resolve this, simply unblock your student!

How to unblock a Student

Unblocking a student is a quick process:

  1. Tap on the class the student is blocked from

  2. Tap the Settings Menu (circled ellipses)

  3. Tap Members

  4. Tap Students

  5. Scroll to the bottom of the student list and tap Blocked Students

  6. Find the desired student and tap Unblock from Class

Other Error Messages and Troubleshooting Solutions

  • If your student sees the message: "You have exceeded the total amount of operations that can be performed on this resource"

Showbie allows up to 40 class or group code attempts, successful or not, within a one-hour period. If you exceed this limit, a one-hour cooldown will apply before you can try another code or the code again and you’ll see the error message shown above.
