How can I use a "modern" web part on a "classic" page?
I need to use the Events web part, and possibly the News web part on my site's home page, which is apparently a classic page. This is a newly provisioned SharePoint site, and if I create a new page, ...
Opening an old thread here.. but have a customer who's root site is Classic and trying to see how we can make this like a Modern site using Modern pages/web parts and the new experience for lists and libraries.
Am I right in saying that the News Web Part won't work on a Modern page within a Classic site.
i've added the news web part and have add some news posts , however they are not appearing in the news web part (even when I have created the News posts directly from the web part) ?
News works fine in classic site. But you have to create the news off a Modern page using the News web part.
- It wasn't working on the site I tried initially.. this was on the classic root site of a older tenant.
I added a number of news articles and links but the News Web part still showed the "add news" command button.
I tried the same steps on the classic root site on a brand new tenant and the news web part is working as expected
