JSON formatting not sticking in SharePoint Online List Form
In the past couple of months, I noticed that when I try to configure the layout on the SharePoint list form, it doesn't stick. This has been happening on the new lists that we've been creating. Eve...
- Feb 18, 2022Another update and just tried this right now. I saw from another post for a different issue that they changed the list settings - >Advanced Settings - > set Offline Client Availability to No. When I did this on the lists I was having issues with, it worked! the formatting sticks. I'll check again next week and make sure. Let me know if this works for you guys.

Thanks so much... I made that adjustment to the list settings and now the formatting is behaving consistently perfect in Chrome and Firefox! I really appreciate this tip!! The other updates I made were helping but the results were still hit and miss as to whether the formatting would work on any given record/day and I kept having to clear cache to see it showing right. This is much better!

KaraLynnMcGinn Great! Glad it worked out for you. I also had a ticket with MS Support for another issue and the fix they recommended also fixed the formatting issue. They asked to follow these instructions - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/lists-sync-policies. I made changes to the registry, added DisableNucleusSync and set dword:1 as specified in the document. Make sure to reboot after making the change. The change will have to get pushed out to all users though. This change helps if you have a lot of lists or other users are creating their own, then you wouldn't have to change the list settings on each list.
