SharePoint Webpart Quick Links
Hello,
I have a problem with the SharePoint webpart Quicklinks. I used to use this webpart to make Quicklinks to folders in a document library.
Since a couple of days it looks like I Can't make a Link to a folder. Only to separate files. I have tested it in two different tenants and in both tenants I see the same behaviour.
Do more people see the same problem?

I have just noticed the same problem. I am certain it used to be possible to create quick links to document libraries. I cannot imagine what the rationale for removing this could be as it makes so much sense to be able to link to libraries at the site collection level. Has this been removed by design? What is the alternative other than copying and pasting links, which I was hoping Microsoft was moving away from in its effort to make page design more universally usable.
Thanks,
Natalie
Hi all,
I noticed that I have the same problem again.
I hope that MS will resolve this again.NHarzic
Maurits Knoppert Was this ever fixed?
I was able to use quick links to folders 2 days ago and now it's greyed out. Did anyone find a solution?
- How are you getting the URL to the folder? If should still work...
Hello Juan,
I hope I can make myself clear with these screenshots.
As you can see I can select a File, but I am not able to select a folder and that was always possible.

- Pretty sure it's always been that way. To do a folder you had to get the URL to the folder directory. https://domain.sharepoint.com/site/library/folder in order to use folders.
