Hello! I activated an Power Apps Customize Form mode but I want to come back to default Sharepoint Form, but I can't. There is no Form Settings option in list settings. How can I turn back default Sharepoint Form ?kpodolakMar 25, 2025Copper Contributor13Views0likes1CommentSharePoint List search limited to ID265
A SharePoint Online list with 400 records. The search function was working fine until one day it could not give results beyond ID 260. I reindexed the list but that did not resolve the problem. I found a workaround "ListItemID: No" and that also did not give us anything above ID265. Any ideas on how to resolve this?Nozipho_NgcoboMar 25, 2025Copper Contributor10Views0likes1CommentUnable to Save Site as Site Template: Unable to convert the HeaderColorIndexInLightMode XML
Steps taken: Modified a few site pages to separate the text and the images and published. Navigated to site contents > site settings > changed the URL from ending in "settings.aspx" to "savetmpl.aspx" as I have done before from the same site to save it as a site template. Filled up the fields for the file name, etc. Made sure to tick the checkbox to include the content and clicked OK. Site loads and ends up displaying this: Unable to convert the HeaderColorIndexInLightMode XML attribute for the WebTemplate XML element for feature {insert GUID} to a positive integer value Context: Also tried to export another site as a site template but same error. Tried to import a pre-existing site template (first backup) into a new SharePoint site but same error. Double checked and made sure that the following is true before trying to save template again but same error occurred: Custom script has been allowed. SharePoint Server Publishing Feature remained deactivated. No corrupted files in site assets or in the site pages. Content Approval Settings: Require content approval for submitted items is still set to NO. Tried using another account with global admin role and site owner full control access to do above steps but did not work as well. Can somebody please help me on this? I'm not sure what else I could do to be able to save this as a template :(441Views9likes22CommentsSet default value by logged user for title colum in a SharePoint list

Hi all, At my office we work with 2 SharePoints, 1 work sharepoint and 1 Published Documents SharePoint. The Metadata is equal across Share Points. During "copy to" not all metadata is transferred. Has anyone encountered this or knows a solution?ElineMar 24, 2025Copper Contributor30Views0likes3CommentsSync the whole SharePoint online using OneDrive
We have a SharePoint online site named "DemoSite2023" that contains multiple libraries, such as: now the only option i found to sync those libraries using OneDrive, is to go to each library and click on the "Sync" icon:- and here what i get inside my windows 11 laptop:- where i got the tenant name on top, and 3 folders for the 3 libraries i synced inside the "DemoSite2023" site.. so my question, if we can organize this in a better way. to have a main folder named "DemoSite203" , then inside this main folder, to have 3 sub-folders representing the 3 libraries; Documents, Site Assets & tg ? is there a way to do this automatically or manually? Second question, instead of doing the sync for each library, can i define to sync the whole site at once? Thanks109Views0likes5CommentsList Sharepoint Clickable cards
Hi everyone ! I need some help. I have formatted my SharePoint list as clickable cards to link to a URL, but I would like to change the layout to a grid mode and I can't seem to do it. The cards always appear one below the other in a single column. Could you please help me?SolvedVanessa_G9Mar 24, 2025Copper Contributor44Views0likes2CommentsFiltering autocompletes based on top result
I have noticed recently that if you are filtering on a column in a SharePoint list or library, if you start typing, it will now auto complete your search for you based off of the top result in that column. I will show some examples below of this happening. When just typing "1" it auto completes my search with the top result. When typing "1234" it auto completes my search based off of the 1 and then adds 234 to the end of the top result. This means you now either have to copy and paste the exact thing you want to search on or manually scroll down the filter list to select what you want. You cant anymore just type 1234 and then select 1234789. Is this a new feature? Can it be turned off? Would be great to have some answers if anyone knows as it is extremely frustrating, as I use the filter feature every day to partially match and help me find items, and now that is essentially not possible.

Hi There, This week I started to update a lot of records in our document library and I noticed the column behavior is changed. Before, when I started to type something in a metadata column it searched as I typed for example: If I started to type "Ap" it started to list all the metadata starting with Ap like: Application, Apple, Apero etc. Now it is ridiculously annoying because if I start to type now it automatically selects the first record in the list starting with A (Apero) and the time by I would type "Appl" Apero is already selected so I typed Aperoppl. Maybe it is a browser problem but it is super annoying. Anyone has the same problem?SnoopDogMar 24, 2025Brass Contributor250Views2likes13Comments
