Custom column layout breaks on mobile view — SharePoint Online Communication Site
Hi everyone, I'm working on a SharePoint Online Communication Site and I've built a custom card section manually each element (image, text, badge, link) was added as a separate web part and organized inside a column section. On desktop it looks exactly as designed. The issue is on *mobile view*: all elements fall apart. The image sits alone at the top, the text below it disconnected, as if the column grouping doesn't exist at all. I understand SharePoint collapses columns into a single column on mobile, but I'd expect it to at least respect the visual grouping of each block. What I've already tried: - "Embed" web part → only accepts iframe, HTML/CSS not supported - "Script editor / Code snippet" web part → accepts inline CSS but it's not a sustainable solution for non-technical users My question: Is there any native setting, web part, or no-code alternative that allows custom card layouts to look good on both desktop and mobile without breaking the grouping? Thanks in advance.
How are you creatively working around the SharePoint List View Threshold
Hi community I'm looking for outside-the-box approaches to dealing with the SharePoint List View Threshold (5,000 item limit). I'm familiar with the standard guidance, indexed columns, filtered views, folders, but I'm curious how others have solved this more creatively, especially in M365/SharePoint Online environments where you can't raise the threshold from the admin side. Additionally, if you've tackled this in a healthcare, government, or other highly regulated environment where you couldn't just move to an external database easily. Would love to hear what's worked (and what's blown up) in practice. Thanks in advance!
Calander Pop-up Clipped Vertically
My SharePoint calendar pop-up is being clipped vertically and only displaying 4 days per week in the date picker. I created a new date column and the issue still persists. I tested in both Edge and Chrome with the browser zoom set to 100%, and the problem does not change when zooming in or out. Has anyone experienced this issue before or found a fix? Attached screenshot for ref erence.
Column Visibility based on previous people column
We've setup persistent approvals for travel requests using a Power Automate flow (not the built-in workflow), so the approved status is not lost if/when the list item is edited. We have a choice column for Approval Request allowing "Draft" and "Submitted". Just need a control to prevent saving the list item as "Submitted" if there is no selection in the Approver (people) column. As you know, we can't use a people column to evaluate conditional visibility on the list form... https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/declarative-customization/list-form-conditional-show-hide And we've tried JSON formatting with a 'helper' column to show if an approver has been assigned or not: { "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json", "elmType": "div", "txtContent": "=if(length([$Approver]) > 0, 'Assigned', 'Unassigned')" } But this doesn't set a value in the column so cannot be used for list validation settings. To reduce complexity, we're trying to do this without using a Power Apps form and conditional visibility... but maybe it's not possible? Already found this help redirecting to Power Apps... https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/sharepoint_general/column-visibility-based-on-previous-multi-choice-column/3987360 Any alternative suggestions are welcomed. Thanks!
Clarification on SharePoint Macro Consent Flow and Permissions
Hi Team, We have a customer using SharePoint in a secure environment. While configuring the Prolaborate SharePoint Macro on their site, a consent popup is displayed during the approval process. Previously, our macro implementation used the Admin Consent flow. Based on the customer’s security and approval requirements, we have modified the consent to use the User Consent flow instead. The customer has requested additional clarification regarding the consent process. Specifically, they would like to understand: The exact API calls triggered for these two consents View your basic profile Maintain access to data you have given it access to The permissions being requested from Microsoft Graph or SharePoint Whether the application requests any tenant-wide or high-privilege permissions Whether minimal permissions such as Sites.Selected can be used instead of broader scopes Current concern: The customer feels the current permission request is too broad for approval within their secure environment (Banking customer). Reason: Their internal approval process requires clear visibility into the exact API and permission scopes being requested, as different permissions are reviewed and approved by different internal teams (for example, User.Read is managed by the Identity team). From our implementation side, we are using only custom APIs and are not directly calling Microsoft Graph APIs. This information will help us provide a clear response to the customer and support their internal approval process.
Container tree - PnP Modern Search
Hello everyone, I am trying to create a page on one of my SP sites dedicated to search. Specifically, I want to use tags/labels as filters. So far, I have managed to do this using the PnP Modern Search filter tool on one level (I create a column, map the crawled properties with a RefinableString, and configure the filter). Now I would like to do the same thing, but this time on multiple levels with a tree structure. I've created a TermSet and in the filter configuration, I saw this “Container tree” option, but nothing works, and I can't find any help or documentation on the subject. Does anyone have any information? Or a way to use this option and have tree view on the filter? Thank you in advance, any help will be greatly appreciated. Kind regards
