self-training site in SharePoint
I feel I did my due diligence in searching for an answer but nothing lined up with what I think I would like. I would like to set up a self-paced training site where we have links to documents or slide decks. That part is easy enough. I would like to have a 'button' (or some mechanism) for users to notify the training coordinator that they have read the material. This doesn't need to be initiated through a task (i.e., in a List), it could be just because someone wants to train. (It could be directed by the training coordinator but just an email to them to go to the site and review the material should suffice.) Ideally, the email (or other means of notification) just captures the material reviewed, the trainee's name, and the date training was completed. I thought Forms might do it (and it may), but I couldn't put it all together. I've done some Flows before so I'm somewhat comfortable in that space (if that's the best approach), but, again, I couldn't fit the puzzle pieces together. Any guidance would be appreciated.DonHMay 15, 2025Occasional Reader5Views0likes0CommentsSharepoint Webseite - Webart Filter "Titel enthält die Wörter"
Hallo zusammen, ich habe folgende Herausforderung bei der Erstellung einer Kommunikation Webseite, bei dem Webart "Hervorgehobener Inhalt" einen Filter eingestellt zu bekommen. Ich möchte nach dem Titel nur bestimmte Excel Dateien anzeigen lassen, welche ich nach bestimmten Wörtern filtere. Sobald ich aber ein Wort oder eine Zahl aus dem Titel in dem Suchfilter eintrage, wird keine Datei mehr angezeigt. Ich hoffe, ihr könnt mein Problem nachvollziehen und habt vielleicht eine Lösung für mich. Danke schon einmal im voraus Steven und so ist das Ergebnis, wenn ich einen Suchbegriff eintrageSteven_1977May 15, 2025Occasional Reader5Views0likes0CommentsSharepoint Properties edit form automatically switches to modern side pane to classic page form
Sharepoint Properties edit form automatically switches to modern side pane to classic page form. We facing this issue suddenly. What could be the possible fix ?Dinesh8608422May 14, 2025Occasional Reader16Views0likes0CommentsUnable to add new Managed Metadata tag to Library items
I have SharePoint Admin permissions. There is a field I'm using called 'Publisher', which is open, yet doesn't allow us to add any new term. The setup looks like this: Within the Global term store: https://<domain>-admin.sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/online/AdminHome.aspx?modern=true#/termStoreAdminCenter - Term group -- Term set (Publisher) (Submission policy - Open policy: Users can add terms from a tagging application.) --- Adidas --- Reebok --- Nike Within the Site term store: https://<domain>.sharepoint.com/sites/<Site>/_layouts/15/SiteAdmin.aspx#/termStoreAdminCenter there are no term groups visible. In the Site Documents library: Content types are enabled. I have a Publisher column, associated with most of our content types. There's a default publisher, "Our company". The column settings include "Allow users to type new values". The Issue Regardless of whether I edit in grid view, or in the Details pane, once I click enter, or exit the field, or in the tag menu, the new publisher doesn't save. Users cannot enter a new publisher term. Debugging I have tried toggling term store settings (closed/open). I've tried toggling the "Require that this column contains information" (since it works for similar issue people commonly have with the 'Description' column).4Views0likes0CommentsExisting file need to be checked out if a duplicate file is uploaded
Hi, I've really been struggling to find any information about this. I have a document library which is set up to require documents to be checked out before they can be edited (Which is needed). However, this setting is causing issues as I also want user to be notified when the document name already exist in the library. Previously I would be notified with 2 options: Replace or Keep both documents. Now they only get the message that the file is not checked out. "You must first check out this document before making any changes". Does anyone know how to get around this? My initial thought was that it would be possible to use Power Automate flow to check if a duplicate file exists in the library, but the file would probably not upload as the existing file is checked in.TrondGundersenMay 14, 2025Copper Contributor4Views0likes0CommentsHow can I recover a corrupted Sharepoint list?
The user tried to delete a column and suddenly received this error: However, trying to navigate back to the list, the page only shows the title. No columns, no "Add item", no Settings "gear" icon, no Recycle Bin. Is there some way we can retrieve the list? There is no data in the list, it is just the configuration (lookups and rules, etc.) that we need to get back.phammarMay 13, 2025Copper Contributor37Views0likes1CommentMake fields required in the new list form, but not the list.
I want to have 2 different forms feed into my list. Each form has different required fields. As far as I can see I can hide required fields in the form and submit the form fine, but when I view the list it highlights a lot of errors asking for required fields. Some fields are relevant to one request and not the other request submitted via the form. It would be great if we could make the fields only required in the form and not in the list. I'm probably going to have to go back to using MS Forms for this project. It's really irritating that any attached flows also need to deal with the required fields in the list and update them each time. All I want to do is update the approval status, but I also have to update 5 fields.jellybeancooperMay 13, 2025Brass Contributor37Views0likes2CommentsIssues cloning Teams/SharePoints - takes long, fails and won't be provisioned
Hello out there, currently we are facing issues when cloning a team via different apps. For example third party tool (provider already contacted so ..) or even via graph api with powerautomate/logic apps. Since last friday teams are taking way to long (can take upon several hours) before they are created. Normally it doesnt take more than 10 minutes. Settings and channels are not being cloned either when the team has been created, they take even more time or are not created anyways. No outdated secrets or certificates here .. everything is fine and has worked before. No changes made in the app in Azure and so on .. . Graph API says it can't find the list even if the SharePoint of the group has been created successfully - Time delay is also implemented. Permissions for the app registration are also correctly set and worked in the past. Anybody facing similar issues?KareemEcksteinMay 12, 2025Copper Contributor15Views0likes0Comments- pratikdarak21May 12, 2025Iron Contributor44Views0likes4Comments
Anyway to give customize view permission without manage lists?
In my org, we provide Sharepoint Online sites to users "as-is", for a specific use case and the "manage lists" permission is a no-no. But we would still like to allow them to customize existing list views. e.g. show/hide columns and set column order and width. Is there any way to have one without the other?dandrakaMay 12, 2025Copper Contributor8Views0likes0Comments
