Document Library "New Button" no longer shows custom content type for New Document Set
Hello all.
I have a long existing site and library that contains document sets. In the last few days, I have lost the option in the +NEW button to create a document set. Within settings, content types, for the library, the custom document set content type is shown that was created some time ago. Also, within setting there is a check mark under "Visible on New Button". In the past the custom content type was in the drop down of the "+New" button. This is no longer the case.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

- 9:30pm 10/5/23 (home and had to check...)- Clipchamp looks to removed and normal functionality has been restored. I am now able to create a new Document Sets from the +New Button.
Chris.- Yes, we see the same behavior.
Hi Chris,
We are facing the same situation in 2 of our libraries where we are usign documentsets.
I think the situation was caused because Clipchamp was added to the default menu.
We have just raised a ticket with Microsoft. Here a bit of my findings:- The sites where this issue occurs are both using documentsets, but also the contenttypes that should be shown within the documentsets are no longer available in the menu.
- If I use powershell to copy the library (only the structure) it is working fine
- If I add a new content type and click on the button new, I see the correct menu for a very brief moment, after which it is replaced by a default menu.
- The menu is showing the correct options when we use the library in the Classic experience.
- I am assuming the situation has started after Clipchamp became available in the default menu
- We did not change anything in the setup of the libraries before the issue occured.
I will keep you informed.

- The agent from MS asked us to wait until Monday, hoping/assuming that the problem will be resolved after the Clipchamp update.
- Just to add, I'm also experiencing the same issue with one of document libraries that uses document sets. As Geert_de_Kooter notes, I can see the document set appear very briefly when I open the new menu, but then it's gone.
- We have the same problem.
- For your information, I found a workaround. Click Return to classic SharePoint. The document set is available for selection.
