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. tySolvednerdyplayerDec 16, 2025Copper Contributor87Views0likes4Comments
Group Calendar web part number of events limitation
The Group Calendar web part in my SP will only display a few meetings. I have increased the 'Number of events per page' setting. I don't see any setting limiting the size of the web part. Is there a setting to limit meetings by date?Solvedux0042Dec 16, 2025Brass Contributor45Views0likes2CommentsHow is the SharePoint Online file path length counted?
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.Solved233Views0likes4Comments
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!SolvedKathryn BirsteinNov 23, 2025Copper Contributor71Views0likes1CommentIssue 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 BoyeSolvedMichaelBoyeNov 20, 2025Copper Contributor102Views1like2CommentsNot 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?Solved91Views0likes1CommentHow to grant access to SharePoint subsite with no Owners

Can anyone help me, please?SolvedJeffery LundNov 10, 2025Copper Contributor229Views1like3Comments
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!Solvedwilliamazevedo2210Oct 30, 2025Copper Contributor201Views0likes3Comments
