Thanks for this guide.
Failed at step 6 - Quick edit view to change the value of Promoted State. The box is greyed out and can't be edited.
Also tried "group by" Promoted State and drag the page to a different group - fails.
Any other ways to change the value?

I have the same issue at step 6. When click on the "2", it grey out and cannot be changed

2 things to check, can you do quick edit on the default view for the library? And if so, is that the view you added promoted state too, saved it either over the default or a new one, then refresh the page and quick edit should be available.- Keren HopkinsMar 04, 2019Brass Contributor
A custom view had been set to the default, which was the one I was trying to use.
Went to the original default view which seems to be "By Author". Made it default. Followed the steps to show the Promoted State column. But the quick edit button is not visible on the "By Author" view.
Tried grouping by Promoted State column, but cannot drag pages between Promoted State groupings.
- Mar 04, 2019By Author one doesn't work, needs to be the all items view. You'll have to find a view that has the quick edit button enabled, and start from that one by just adding that column and saving, then it should allow it, if not you can refresh after saving and it should allow quick edit.
