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.
Yes I am able to add this. But I am not able to edit the promoted value from 2 to 0 in quick edit.
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?
The numbers used for now are 0, 1 and 2
- 0 is a published 'site page' that is NOT considered 'News' and does not end up in the news roll up (ie, your home page)
- 1 is a news page that is not published yet
- 2 is a news page that is published or a news link (from the News roll up + button)
Try doing this from the "front end." Use the dropdown in the view to "Group by Promoted State" and then select "Save as" and save to the current view.
I am pretty sure that Promoted State = 1 is for unpublished pages.
The field "Promoted State" does not appear in the drop down.
I have the field shown in the view too. It is also not available to filter on, only to view.
SusanHanley, thank you for this. Perfect solution for items promoted in error.
- This is cool. Thanks
