Can't edit List items in modern page

Hello,

 

I noticed there is no option to edit the item after adding list webpart to a modern page. New Item can be added but edit provide share, copy link and delete option only.

 

 

The only way I can edit currently us by double clicking on item in the browser to open it in new tab. However, in mobile version it's not possible. 

 

I am not sure there was edit before and something is missing now or if I did something wrong.

 

Thank you.

  • Hi, that sounds rather strange. If I click the three ellipses in a list I see "Open, Edit, Share, Copy Link....etc " on the fly menu.

    On mobile (at least iOS) I have "edit" in the upper right corner of the screen when looking at an individual item in the list.

      Can you also try adding the list as webpart to a modern page and then check?

        HI again, I obviously didn't read your first post thouroughly. I have now tested it using a webpart to display one of my lists and I can confirm that I get the exact same fly menu as you with only "share", "copy link" and "delete". However in the SharePoint app on my iOS device, I can still edit individual items (but this time the link is displayed top left instead of top right)
