Hi Brian Kinsella yes the roll up features and aggregation are great but the issue here is the permissions as I mentioned previously. Having to give design permissions to someone posting a news item is poor for any governance. Until this is resolved I just can't roll out any of the new news app features. I also mentioned the amount of training needed to all staff as we set up news postings for everyone to use and communicate. So having to give all staff design access to team sites and then train them on this bright shinny new app is a large commitment. At least the old news app used features from MS Office for editing, a great loss in this one. And with the new hub site about to roll out I am expecting lots of issues with it before we are ready to introduce it to the broader community. So we are now left with no true working new app and have received short notice on its retirement. This is not a great way to sell the features of Office , particularly when I get customer complaint on why they are being Microsoft's testers due to the number of bugs and complexities working with a lot of the new features being added.
