Quick Links webpart bug?
MicrosoftThanks for reporting your issue Robert Graauw.
I'm not sure I fully understand what's happening.
- You create a modern page (e.g. demo.aspx)
- You add the quick link webpart
- You add link #1 to quick links (e.g. Title = Bing, URL = http://www.bing.com)
- You add a preview image for the link #1 (e.g. dog.png)
- You then add link #2 (e.g. Title = Google, URL = http://www.google.com)
- You don't use any custom image for the link, you just leave ti at the default globe
- You publish the page
- The page looks fine to you, and the links work for you
What happens for others that look at the page?
They don't see the dog image next to the word Bing?
Or when they click the link titled Bing and get a blank page?
OR...?
Thanks
I experience this also...
Non-First Release Users (who have full access to the site)
- When clicking on a Quick Link tile they are redirected to the URL of the image (if no image a blank page)
- Quick links are always shown in FilmStrip view (even when settings are Compact)
First Release Users
- Works as expected, URL of link and Compact view displays fine also
My Feedback :)
The way Comms site are being preview'd/rolled-out is a poor user experience, it should either be First Release users only get access to the site, to avoid all these embarrassing "(me)here is a demo take a look > (client) umm the page looks horrible when I view it" conversations with clients.
OR even if First Release users are the only ones able to create comms sites, enable all users to access the web resources to allow the pages to render correctly.
I figure this is a little different to other activations as it's deploying within an existing service, hopefully the pain will only be short lived.
- And here it comes the question why Communications Sites where released first to First Release - Select Users...I still cannot figure out the underlying reason
