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!OmidyMay 25, 2026Copper Contributor60Views1like1CommentContainer 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 regardsFabienGiMay 23, 2026Copper Contributor235Views0likes4CommentsComment formatting in MS List/SharePoint List
Hi, I have an MS List and the formatting in the Comments section in the form view has gone all wonky and it's being compressed and is only allowing a few words per line. Any ideas? Nothing changed on my end....Barking_MadMay 22, 2026Copper Contributor130Views0likes4CommentsUpdated design for collapsible sections SharePoint
We're seeing an updated design for collapsible sections in SharePoint as of today. The control arrow for the section now appears either over ("Left") or under ("Right") the header. Is this intentional? If it's not intentional - I presume that the arrow should appear either to the left or right of the header, not over or under and this may be fixed soon. If it's intentional - please change this so that we have the option that it is actually to the left or right of the header! The extra space that is showing right now ruins the look of the design, and it's confusing which arrow belongs to which header.SolvedsimonclearMay 22, 2026Copper Contributor199Views0likes2CommentsCollapsible section icon alignment no longer respected – recent SharePoint change?
Hi all, I’m looking to validate whether others are seeing a recent change to collapsible sections on modern SharePoint pages. Across multiple communication sites in our environment, the expand/collapse icon is no longer rendering inline with the section heading, despite the settings being configured correctly (e.g. alignment set to “Right”). Instead, the icon is now: appearing below the heading defaulting to the left-hand side ignoring the alignment setting in the section properties This change appears to have happened “overnight” and is consistent across all sites we’ve checked, not just a single page or site. Impact We rely heavily on collapsible sections for: knowledge guides FAQ-style content onboarding materials The current behaviour is: increasing vertical spacing unnecessarily reducing scan-ability of pages creating inconsistency between existing and newly rendered content It’s also causing confusion for content authors, as the settings no longer reflect what is displayed. Questions Is anyone else seeing the same behaviour across their tenant? Has this been confirmed as a design change vs a bug? Has anyone found a workaround or mitigation approach? I have already raised this and upvoted it on the Microsoft Feedback Portal and would encourage everyone to do the same if they are experiencing this issue. I'd rather not have to change the design across multiple SharePoint site - an enormous amount of work.

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?

I'm working on a new site and working on creating all the new list and libraries. Might get really big really quick for the new department. There a way to group List together instead of making all the names the same? Doubt there is, just thought I'd ask.nerdyplayerMay 22, 2026Brass Contributor45Views0likes1CommentGet SharePoint list attachment images in Power BI
I have a SharePoint Online list with attachments. I am connecting to this list as a data source in Power BI using the SharePoint Online List option. When the list loads in Power BI, the Attachments column shows the number of attachments rather than a Table that can be expanded to get the URL. There are multiple YouTube videos that demonstrate this but I am not seeing a table. Is this a change in functionality? Is there another approach. I have also seen option of using the SharePoint Folder connector but this works only for document libraries. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.YatinPurohitMay 21, 2026Copper Contributor22Views0likes0CommentsHow to show folder path for documents in a flat SharePoint library view
I have a document library with a multi-level folder structure that is somewhat complex. I created a view that removes folders and displays all documents in a flat structure (no folders shown). How can I display or indicate the folder path (or location) for each document in this flat view, so users can understand where each file is stored within the original folder hierarchy?Solved67Views0likes2Comments
