Communications Site "Promote Page" feature flaw
- Quick edit will only work in a “flat” view. Only the default All Pages view of Site Pages is flat, so be sure you are looking at a flat view. Or, in a grouped view that has items grouped by Promoted State, you should be able to select and drag items between groups. That will also “re-set” the Promoted State.
I am wondering how it got worked for you. Today I have tried to add PromotedState column to my view which I am not able to find it. Are you sure still this exists?
Yes, I am sure. Be sure you are adding Promoted State from the "modern" view. Then check the Promoted State box and Apply.
Yes I am able to add this. But I am not able to edit the promoted value from 2 to 0 in quick edit.
Good afternoon! from the Site Pages view, if you have the "Promoted State" as column in the view, click that drop down and click "Group By". Then click the drop down of the view, and save this view as "By Promoted State". Now, in this view, if you want to change the promoted state, just drag and drop it. I'm currently looking for an index of what the promoted states mean, i.e. 0,1,2,3... Hope this helps!
- Hey there,
This was working perfectly but, now pages that I move from the Promoted State:2 to Promoted State:0 group are still showing up as news. anyone else?

I'm not able to add grouping by promoted state, even though the field is visible. Am I doing something wrong? It just isn't a choice.
Also, could anyone tell me what a Promoted State value of 1 means?
