Verify creator of content on Whiteboard
Hi Can I verify who created what (and when) on Whiteboard? I read that mouse-over should do that but it does not work for me... I am mainly using Whiteboard in TEAMS, but also the stand alone app. Thanks for your ideas, MoritzSolvedHofmannMoritzOct 06, 2025Copper Contributor4.7KViews1like6CommentsHow to STOP Teams from auto-deciding for me what I should see and not see
I don't know about others but for me its very annoying when TEAMS decides for me what I need to see and don't need to see vs letting me make that decision myself. YES I can SHOW a channel that has been hidden but if I don't know it was hidden then I don't know it needs to be shown. I was looking for information that I knew would be in a file somewhere but I didn't know the file name and b/c TEMAS auto hid the channel it was in for me I couldn't locate it via manual search. I had to go ask someone else who had worked with the info and when they ds showed me the file I went back to my desk and of course I still couldn't locate it b/c I didn't realize it was in a hidden channel. I could search by the file name but I didn't make note of the file name b/c I thought that knowing in what Channel it was that I could then manually find it myself. Time was wasted all b/c MS Teams made choices for me without asking or checking with me first. Is there a way to shut this down so in the future TEAMS does not hide something soi that only I can hide it if I want to hide it? If any MS Engineer is reading this,. PLEASE stop making choices for us users! Its great that we can if we so choose, hide or show something but stop deciding for us what we should see and not see! It was annoying when you started this hide & seek game with the functions in the MS Applications and it's no more fun now that your doing it in TEAMS. Some users like to decide for themselves vs letting software choose for them.edcardenOct 06, 2025Copper Contributor28Views1like1CommentHow to organise Posts within channels
Hi, Hoping that someone could share some thoughts and/or advice in relation to a scenario we're trying to find a solution for. We have a channel, in which we use Posts to share information, which can be grouped into two or three themes, with channel members. For clarity, please refer to the below pic for what I mean when referring to Posts (as distinct/different functionality from chats). What we'd like to do is mark the posts, with the respective theme, and be able to filter the theme so that users don't need to scroll through the whole list to manually find posts related to the theme they'd like to see. Some other considerations: we like the idea of using a consolidated channel for multiple themes, so that there are less different channels etc that users need to navigate/keep across all channel members need to have access all posts (not any specific subset of members/users) if there was a way to have multiple "Posts" tabs, this would work for us to be able to share the themed posts to a centralised posts space, as then users could access the separate Posts tab for specific themes as/if required we're trying to find the least "clunky" solution/approach to achieve an ease of grouping/finding posts related to a specific theme Thanks in advance for your time and thoughts : -) Cam.CParker1986Oct 06, 2025Copper Contributor36Views1like3CommentsBest performance management software for Microsoft 365?
We are on the lookout for a new performance management app for our HR department. I think we really need something that lives inside Microsoft Teams and isn't going to be another extra app for people to check on. I've gone through the app store and have a small list but I would love some suggestions.HarryPOct 06, 2025Copper Contributor36Views0likes1CommentHow to embed large text blocks in a chat message
I am trying to include a large-ish code snippet in a Teams message. I understand that the message itself can only be so many characters, but is there a way to create an ad-hoc object to place a larger text chunk in, rather than save my content to a file and attach the file?ErichZimmermanOct 03, 2025Copper Contributor11Views0likes0CommentsTeams Stamps External Users with Trust Indicators
Attackers might attempt to use social engineering to trick Teams users in compromise. Trusted indicators help users understand the status of external users with difficult visual markers. The idea is that users will see the marker and realize that they should be less trusting in their communications. Sounds good. But maybe securing external access for Teams with a comprehensive block list is even better? https://office365itpros.com/2025/10/02/trust-indicator-teams/47Views1like4CommentsDeleted Channels Reappearing
Teams DELETED Channels keep re-appearing. This is an ALL COMPANY team. Several Channels were deleted 2 months ago. A few days ago, these hidden channels showed up on 1) my Win10 desktop Teams app, 2) on my iOS Teams App, and 3) in the new Edge browser Teams. They do not show up on my Android Teams App. They showed up as a hidden channel. Sometimes, when trying to view them, they will disappear only to reappear about an hour later. I am an owner on the team.PBeiler1Oct 02, 2025Iron Contributor3.4KViews1like4CommentsHow to make e-mail adresses of guests invisible to see for other guests?

Thanks for your support.DennisWorkOct 02, 2025Copper Contributor973Views0likes2CommentsHide guest member email address
Hi, I invite two guests to join a team. Is there a way to prevent them seeing each other's email address? This is a confidentiality issue and currently is a bar to me using Teams with external users. Thanks, PhilPhilHeskethOct 02, 2025Copper Contributor15KViews0likes4Comments
