Autofill Columns - Managed Metadata
I have a SharePoint document library that has 4 autofill columns, 1 of which is a Managed Metadata column. When I drop a document, the MMD column doesn't complete the first time even though the status says, Finished. If I manually chose AutoFill again, the MMD column completes. Is anyone else experiencing this? Am I doing something wrong or are the limitations with AutoFill MMD columns?
Check in issue with Document Library
I am having an issue with files in a document library remaining checked out to the user who edited it - I have raised with MS support who so far have no resolution for this. The files in the document library are all images - all are edited with the default editing feature in SharePoint. When these are edited, they used to save instantly and be visible to all users. Now, upon saving, the image remains "checked out" and needs to be manually checked back in. This is not ideal for my scenario - it needs to be automatic and instant. I do have JSON formatting on this library which is the only difference I can see between this library that doesn't work well, and another on a different site that does what I expect it to. All advanced/version settings have been checked and all are set to NOT required files to be checked out. Does anyone have any guidance as to why the JSON formatting is affecting this? What can I try?Sharepoint/Onedrive 300K Files limit
Hello, We are using Sharepoint/Onedrive for 7 users. They are all searching/Editing within 300k Files (600GB) (15 years worth) Im aware of unofficial file count limit of 300K. They are already experiencing issues, like sync issues, Very slow Searching (even with Always keep on Device) Unfortunately they cant archive/remove any of date because they need constant access to all the files, even old ones. Is there anything that can be done, or is there any other solution outside of Microsoft that would be suitable for this scenario? Regards mike
Suddenly can't edit page banner if it's a "color block" style.
Over the past two days all three content creators in the company have had this problem crop up on their systems when attempting to edit any page in our tenant that uses a banner set to the "Color Block" style. When we click edit, the edit page comes up, but most of the banner isn't displayed. We see the bottom half of the banner, and it's not clickable, we can't get the controls to change the image. Note that the scroll bar is at the top - we can't see the whole banner. If we click "Accessibility Issues" on the right, we can see "no alt text" in the banner as a problem. If we click on that, the banner properties will appear and we can change away from the "Color Block" style and things go back to normal. We've tried this in three browsers, three people, rebooted, cleared caches, etc. MSFT, guesses?Sharepoint term store interface is frustrating for large termsets
We have a termset in our term store containing a few hundred entries. I'm doing some housekeeping - deprecating some terms, renaming others - but the user interface makes it very difficult. By default, the termset seems to only display the first 40 or so entries, alphabetically. I have to click 'load more' to see the next batch of entries. When I edit one of the later entries and save the change, I'm always taken back to the first 40 entries. So I have to click 'load more' then scroll down to get back to where I was. Make another change. Get taken back to the start of the list. Repeat. It's hugely frustrating. I don't know if this is expected behaviour - in which case it's poor usability - or if there's a setting I can customise to change the behaviour. Any advice?
Document library doesn't appear for users in Excel/word
Hi all, I'm trying to make life easier for everyone in our office by having a SharePoint site to store any shared documents rather than saving them in the users OneDrive. However, it's not quite going according to plan. I created the site with a document library etc and added the required members to the site, but I had different results for each user. Some could see the site after browsing all in quick access, some users could see the site in quick access straight away and others couldn't see the site or browse to it at all. I found that sharing one of the document folders with the users, then enabled them to see the site and all folders in the library. Then I discovered that when sharing files, they only had the option to save them in OneDrive and the site didn't display as an option, the only way round that was to save a copy in the SharePoint library and share it from there, which wasn't very helpful. I'm hoping that I've done something really wrong when setting the site up and someone can point me in the right direction, because as it stands using SharePoint really not working as well as I'd hoped.Looking for the Best Approach to Build an Annual Calendar in Power Platform
We are looking to implement a calendar within the Power Platform that offers an annual view, similar to the one shown above. Do you know of a more suitable solution—one that better aligns with business needs—within the Power Platform ecosystem (Power Apps – Canvas or Model-Driven –, SharePoint lists, Power BI, or any other relevant approach)?
