Quickpart Label is missing in my documents

Hello,

 

I'm looking for a solution to implement version number from Sharepoint on my Word documents. I found something which works last month:

  • https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d7edacd9-3818-4b66-982a-daa1846fbe2a/add-the-sharepoint-version-number-to-a-word-document?forum=onlineservicessharepoint
  • https://businesscloudintegration.co.uk/feature-of-the-week-version-number-quick-parts

Using this solution, I configure my library as follows:

 

 

 

 

I tried with a document created using the "new" menu of Sharepoint and another imported to Sharepoint, but I have the same result, the label is still missing:

Here, I found some people with the same problem, but nothing works for me:

  • https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/6607b861-0e14-42ff-912c-000c8ff9b791/quick-parts-label-contents-missing?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
  • https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/missing-label-option-in-quick-parts-document/ce6d7c58-38ee-4643-947c-bf0123d8368d

I don't know if it is linked, but since August, some behaviors are different. And I'm afraid that this solution is now deprecated, but I found nothing in the release notes of august concerning labels.

  • https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/officeupdates/update-history-microsoft365-apps-by-date

 

If labels are deprecated, another solution exists?

 

Thanks in advance,

Vincent

    for me the issue was a corrupt content type. By creating a new contenttype and adding the label for the new contenttype solved the issue. The new label is visible again.

      Hello Ekk,
      Thanks for your answer, I do the same, but all my files are still based on the corrupt content type. The label is visible on new files, but not on the actual files on my library.

      There is a way to change the contenttype used for all the files already uploaded?

      And do you know the reason of the corruption of the template?
      How can I be sure that the new template will not be corrupted tomorrow?
