News item template shows THIS PAGE IS SAMPLE CONTENT in header after publication
- Jan 06, 2023It's a template that is added as a custom template when you add the progress tracker app to your site (it comes included on the MS Project Management site template). I have deleted the template now as there is no way to edit it. This is a bug that MS need to fix.
babahulley Did you create a site page template and using it while creating a new news item?
If yes, you have to make changes to page template (remove placeholder), save page template and then use new page template to create news pages.
Also, is this placeholder added using any out of the box web part or using custom solution like SPFx?

- babahulleyJan 06, 2023Copper ContributorI used one of the included MS news templates called "status report template." The 'visual' and 'basic text' templates don't carry this text.

babahulley I don't see this news template in our SharePoint site. Are you sure this is a SharePoint out of the box news template and not the template created by someone in your organization?
Can you go to the "Site Pages" library and check if there are any custom page templates available?
