Url links in the document library not working in web part
hunk0227 We have noticed a very similar problem:
Add a URL file to a sharepoint document library
View library in a webpart
Click on link, nothing happens
Go to document library, click on link which works
Go back to web part and the link now works
Do you have the same? It seems the act of opening a link in the document library once makes them work in the web part.
HI Simonnn
Unfortunately, i used an alternatives since i didn't get response from this forum. ![]()
What i did was i created a embed webpart which has better look and feel rather than viewing the library itself.
Yes, i noticed that too however it is not stable sometimes it works sometimes not resulting to confusion to the regular users. as well you do not have options to update the URL once it is created.
