News web part not working correctly when using managed property filter
Hi
I'm using the News web part on our company intranet which is filtered using a managed property:
From Monday this week, it's started playing up. There are 4 news posts with the managed property and each time you refresh the page, it displays a different number of news posts.
Initial page load:
Refresh page:
Refresh again:
This is happening on the latest versions of Chrome and Edge and on multiple devices.
Is anyone else having the same issue?
- I'm experiencing the same issue. I cannot filter News based on managed property. It does not return accurate results. This was working at one time and now its not. I have a site column in each site pages library called NewsType (choice column which includes: Featured News, General News and Announcement) and I created a page template for each different type of News (Featured News, General News and Announcement) with the NewsType preset to the correct type of news.) On our main site home page I have 3 News Web parts, one that is supposed to filter by NewsType = Featured News, the other NewsType=General News, and the other NewsType=Announcement. The filtered results are not correct. I know this worked at one time. We haven't gone live with our new intranet home page, but plan to soon and I need to get this working. Has anyone figured out how to use the Managed properties filter with the News Web part for all sites in the Hub?
- It's got worse. Now the News web part won't display any news posts when News Source is set as All sites in the Hub. I've updated the Microsoft ticket.
- Hi, we have exactly the same behavior, but two weeks ago it worked well !!!
- I have an incident open with Microsoft and they've said a number of customers are having the issue.
Please could you keep us posted ?
