Customizing the "modern" experiences in SharePoint Online - your opinion?
Microsoftthx Oliver Zeiser for starting this thread. We are absolutely interested on input around this. Would like to also point out that whatever is currently supported from customization perspective, is just a start and more capabilities will be supported gradually when those are finalized and ready to get published.
We would though absolutely be interested on hearing what are the key missing capabilities currently and other input around the questions what Oliver pointed out.
Your input truly matters, so thx for everyone's feedback and comments advance.
In no particular order
- Ability to customise or replace the "SharePoint" landing page
- More/improved web parts - currently it's too basic and cannot even add tables, lists of links or even change the font colour.
- View/edit source, to at least keep us going until later improvements
- More flexible navigation options
- Custom page banners
- Alternative layouts
- SharePoint Add-ins in modern pages, or a spfx alternative (thinking about accessing on premise sql servers here)
- Ability to add Office 365 navigation elements to Azure AD (provider hosted) apps
One concern I do have is that we have created new sites as Team sites, as they support Modern pages. I will not be happy if it turns out we can only customise on sites originally created as publishing sites.
