Feedback bar madness
Woke up this morning to find this little "treat" on my (first release) tenant's site pages:
The already permanently visible, irritating and confusing feedback button has now grown to take even more screen space away from useful content to display a load of white space and a page counter straight out of 1995.
I have two questions, "why?" and more importantly, how do I make this go away? At least I can turn comments off via the SharePoint admin centre, it seems no such common sense has been applied in this case, or am I mistaken?
Some times my mind boggles at what "features" Microsoft deem to be development priorities. Just had a quick look on user voice and I couldn't see "old school page view counter" anywhere on the most requested features (in fact I did find this one on the second page Optionally disable feedback button with 159 votes...). Truly, what gives?
Hi Rich,
It is possible to disable the Page Usage Information bar: details below
Set-SPOTenant-SocialBarOnSitePageDisabled$true.
I’m a fan of it actually and it’s not fully rolled out to include Likes yet but it is a choice!
Hope this helps

Jups, should have an option to disable that annoying and super confusing "Feedback" button.

Many thanks for this John, I was able to disable it using Set-SPOSite. Now if only we could disable the original feedback button! ;)
