Show latest news article in full
The challange is that I'd like to automatically show the latest article when someone posts something. You could say that I'd like to always show the top article in the /SitePages/ library (sorted by newest).
I have heard of Power Automate but not Power Apps so I would have to look into that. I'm afraid that it will quickly become too complicated for a simple soul like me.
What would be the simplest way to always show the latest news article?
Hello Jos9000
with Power Apps you can create a dedicated App to show only the news that you want, without the SharePoint things around the page, but yes, it's a little bit complicated.
With SharePoint standard:
1 ) Use a news Web Part, Layout Tiles, show only 1 news
2 ) Use an Highlighted Content Web Part, Carousel Layout, show up only 1 news
3) With customizing, you can also use the PnP Modern Search Web Parts with custom layouts https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/
Hope one of the points can help you.

I tried your suggestions for Sharepoint standard, first and second point. This results in a picture of the article plus the headline. However, I would like to show the full article. Am I doing something wrong?
Hello Jos9000
no, it's absulutly correct, when you click on the result, the full news article will be open.
Best, Dave
