Links to SP documents direct to wrong folder
From SP list, we've got links to direct to subfolders in SP document library with folder hierarchies. After creating new links from the modern SP list, things work fine with the "new experience"...

Thanks Christopher. The main concern is that, after migrating from on-prem to online SP (tested with Sharegate), we will have thousands of links with the above mentioned strange behavior in the classic mode, although they do well in the modern one. Looking for an alternative to the manual way to fix the issue.
- DeletedJun 06, 2018Yeah, I quit trying to link to folders some time ago cause I had users basically write an index to all their files on their homepage and it was a nightmare. You could just set your library to only use classic mode if this is a major issue then tackle them over time. Under advanced settings you can choose the experience for individual libraries.
