Make Sharepoint Hub site the default site for organisation
Thanks for this. I have given it a test on one of our test sites which is quite old and uses the classic look. I made it a hub site, added a page with the new look and then was able to set the welcome page as the new page I had just created. Great I thought, lets try it on our current root site.
Followed all the same steps, but when it came to creating the new page, it only allows me to create pages in the old style and not the modern look. When I go into site contents on the current root site I do not have the option to add a new page. The only way I can add a page is through the wheel cog and then add a page but this is the old style page.
Also, I only seem to get access to the hub site settings when I am in Site Contents.
Any ideas?
When I create a new page on my root site via "Add a page" in the cog wheel, I get the Modern page design. Not sure why you wouldn't. I don't think it's related to targeted release.
Do you have site publishing feature on or something? That might force classic sites etc.
Seems I didn't have the ability to create pages on this site activated in the admin settings. Have activated this and have now been able to create a new page and will set that as the new welcome page.
Thanks for your help.
Not that I am aware off. Might do some more digging and raise a ticket with MS.
