Restrict a SP library for uploaders
Want to create a SP library where people will be uploading documents from different departments. Is there a way that i can lockdown a view where anybody coming in can only see their own uploads? Maybe use the last modified column or create a person column? I know I can do this with folders and mail groups, but trying to get away from that and also making it easier for my auditors to go through the documents easier without going through folder-ception. Maybe I can work on restricting the public view? The owner and small group does need the ability to see them all. tySolved71Views0likes4Comments

I'm struggling to figure out how to calculate the path length of a file in SharePoint. I understand that the maximum is 400 characters. However, I'm not sure what goes toward that number, or whether characters are encoded or decoded.Solved215Views0likes4Comments
SharePoint Search by Date
We have several business-critical Date columns that users need to filter by in search. Created and Modified provided by KQL are not enough. We’re limited to a tiny pool of RefinableDate properties, and there’s no UI to create new Date managed properties. This forces us into app-side filtering instead of leveraging the search index. Is there any workaround for this? Does Microsoft have any plans to modernize managed property creation for dates? It's completely unacceptable to have only 12 Refinable Dates for the entire tenant!Solved71Views0likes1CommentIssue with Moving Data Between SharePoint Sites Using Synced Document Libraries
Hi everyone, I work at an MSP IT company, and over the past 14 days, I’ve encountered the same issue with two different users from separate customers. Both users have synchronized document libraries on their local machines. Here’s what happens: When they cut a large set of files from one SharePoint site to another, the data doesn’t seem to move correctly. On the user’s computer, everything looks fine, but when I check online, the files are still in the original location. If I then cut the data from the new location to a temporary folder (e.g., C:\#temp), the files disappear from the old location both locally and online. After that, if I move the data back into the new location, it synchronizes perfectly. Has anyone experienced this behavior before or can explain if the users are doing something wrong? Any insights would be greatly appreciated! :) Best regards, Michael BoyeSolved102Views1like2CommentsNot able view option of "Site Page" for selection on New button click for Site Pages library

Classic SharePoint list view redirecting to home page
Hello! I have an old Classic SharePoint site that I need to create a new view in a list for. I have created this view but whenever I go to open that view it redirects me to the homepage. This site was build by someone else and I believe this is by design to stop users from using admin only views....but how do I stop this for my new view? I need some users to be able to use it. When I create a personal view it does not do this redirect. Any ideas how I can stop it happening on a public view? Or will I need each of my users who need a new view to set up personal views of their own?Solved84Views0likes1CommentHow to grant access to SharePoint subsite with no Owners

Advice on what method of List to implement
Hello. I'm trying to implement a control of water meters readings. At first, I created a list for the equipments and one list for the readings, with a lookup column linking both lists through the equipment column in the first. But then i remembered the delegation limit. I have more than five hundred equipments and the readings must be registered in a daily basis and that data would surpass the delegation limits of five thousand rows in about two weeks. Because of that, I decided to create a list to each equipment, what would result in more than five hundred lists, but would give much more time (13 years) before the delegation limit for each equipment. But to avoid human errors on selecting the equipment, I'm failing on setting a default value for the readings lists and it made me rethink if that is really a clever idea. My question: what method should work best in this case? Or is there a better way to do it I'm not seeing? Thank you in advance!Solved200Views0likes3Comments

With either a Rich Text or Enhanced Rich Text column type, when I try to use a link to the Onenote desktop app (begins with 'onenote:https://'), SP will remove the hyperlink on its own.

While https://bluesite.consulting/en-us/articles/sharepoint-site-template-projecthome-review.html, I noticed something unusual in the work action tracker list—a column setting that seemed out of place. Specifically, the Priority column isn't set up as a typical choice column with selectable options. Instead, the available choices are entered as free text in a single text field (left image) I saw this years ago in the old SharePoint. where options for a choice column are defined within a text field rather than as a standard list of choices (right image). Does anyone know why this might be happening or what could be causing this behavior?Solved112Views0likes3CommentsSharePoint pages - multiple folders

Hi! I'm working on a ShrePoint site for my organisation and have run into an issue with a SharePoint list. The entire site is in Swedish and I've run inte issues when Grouping/Sorting. In the list i have a column (lets call it "Letter") that uses a formula =LEFT(Title) to extract the first letter from the Title of each list item for the purpose of being able to group by letter. So the list is first grouped by "Letter" and the Sorted alphabetically by "Title". The issue is how SharePoint handles "alphabetical order" of the Swedish alphabet. The Swedish alphabet is the same as English, but with 3 additional letters, "Å", "Ä" and "Ö". While they could be considered A's and O's with diacritics, in Swedish they are considered their own letters. And alphabetically they come after Z. I want my list sorted "A, B, C, ... X, Y, Z, Å, Ä, Ö", but SharePoint sometimes sorts it "A, Ä, Å, B, ... N, O, Ö, P, Q, ..., X, Y, Z" The strange thing, however, is that this problem only arises when i load the list on a SharePoint page as a Web part. So in short: Problem only occurs when grouping or sorting the column "Letter", and i only occurs when using the list in a web part. Has anyone run into anything similar? I've looked thourgh all the setting i can access for both the site and the list. All Language settings are set to Swedish as well.Solved81Views0likes2CommentsRecommendations for SharePoint Accessibility Training
