Why does 'Upload' disappear from modern document library?
We've got 3 libraries in a SPO site. The standard 'Documents', and 2 others that have other fields added as metadata (just single text and choice fields) - otherwise they're just default document lib...

This should be fixed by now. Please test again.

Did require check out yet turned on those libraries?

Nope. No checkout, no required fields in the additional fields added.
Interesting thing, if i add the problem library to a page as a webpart, it works fine!
about the only thing i can think of to do is create a new library, and add fields until it breaks...
another strange thing. This is a library I used as a site script base. I ran it on another site to create a duplicate library and that works fine as well. Maybe theres a document name thats breaking the view... but theres only 30 docx in it.
(edited post because everywhere I should have said library, I said list. Sorry for the confusion, old brain at work)
- Jul 02, 2019I was going to think the opposite was going on that they were using web parts instead of the list itself. Something doesn’t add up. You said create new list? These are libraries your created not lists right? You can’t drag etc. into list of that be the case as each row is an item and not a document, but you said it works in classic so and web part so Probabaly not that.
- Jul 02, 2019Could be something with your view the. If it’s working via webpart. Try going to library settings and in view section create a new just default simple view and then save and switch to that view and try. Maybe even set it as default and refresh maybe something on view is triggering the controls to act funny. The web part uses a base view I think so might be why it’s working.
