Nested Dynamic Filtering on web parts does not work
I created a Sharepoint page and added an MS list web part, which I use as a "filter" selection. Then, I added a second MS list to display the main list of content items, configured with Dynamic filtering based on selecting the "filter" list. Then, I added a Document library web part, which is again configured with Dynamic Filtering based on the selection of the second content item list. Unfortunately, when you select an item from the "filter" list and then select an item from the second "content" list, the document library does not update based on the selection. HOWEVER.. If I select an item from the second "content" list without selecting an item from the "filter" list, the document library updates and shows the filtered content correctly. Any idea why it would not work and how to fix this? Seems like it should work
Sharepoint Document Library Limits
Back in 2012, when our company began using Sharepoint, we set up different subsites for each function. eg.: HR, Accounting, Sales, Operations, Customers. Within these subsites we set up document libraries to organize the data. In these libraries we store customer communications, job photos, and diagrams related to each jobsite. Each library is labeled with the customer name and/or address.This was working great until last week when we reached our limit of 500 customer libraries. I have created an additional Customer subsite for a specific division to move some of the libraries in an attempt to free up room in the original site.I have moved about a dozen libraries to the new site and deleted some others. The original site is still not allowing new document libraries to be added. How can the library limit be reset to the current value to allow additional libraries? Or what is the best way to move select document libraries to a new site in bulk? Your assistance is greatly appreciated. AM
Suggestions for improvements to SharePoint Online Search results
You could say that our whole organization is unhappy with the state of SharePoint Search. We have tried the following: Removing old/irrelevant data from Search Attempted to set up Cognitive AI using Azure Connectors (super limiting as it does not provide security trimming and doesn't index pages, only documents) Set up bookmarks, q&a, and acronyms (this works but you can only do so much). There is also a training curve to get people to continue to build this out. What are others doing? I hear that this is a common complaint but I am not hearing solid solutions. I would love to hear from you!
No admin for Sharepoint site
Hi all! I just created a new Sharepoint site and directly added 3 other admins. Strangly when I am in the Sharepoint site, I only see 3 members (not me included) and those 3 are members and not admins. So actually nobody is an admin, which is very unhandy and strange. Does someone know what I should do? Thank you in advance Louis Hereby some screens of the situation (sorry its in dutch: leden=members, lid=member)

Remove Site Owner from SharePoint Site sub-folders.
Hi My company used to have a file server where we created folders for the different departments, IT, Finance etc. We created security groups and gave full access to these groups to their department folder and added all the staff from that department to the security group - giving them full access to all sub-folders in the department folder. We then had the option to create sub-folders in the department folders for specific users, like if some of the team worked on a specific project, we could give only those users access to that project folder that was in their main department folder. We would remove inheritance from the parent folder and control access this way individually. Since moving to SharePoint a few years ago, we set up SharePoint Sites, SharePoint-IT, SharePoint-Finance etc. and moved all data from the file server folders to these sites. All users now became Owners to their SharePoint Site, and so had access to all folders, even the ones they did not before, which was okay. We would now like to start doing the same as what we did with the file server, create a folder in a departments' Site and remove access to all Site owners and then give individual users access to that sub-folder. From what I can see, and have read, Site Owners will always have access to all folders and inheritance cannot be broken or removed? Is this still correct and is there any way to get past this? How would I give access to a manager who might want to save a private department related document to the SharePoint Site and restrict access to the rest or some of their team. We do not want to use OneDrive for these situations, we would like to keep all department related documents and files in the relevant department Sites.Is there a way to submit New SharePoint forms anonymously?
I want to use a New SharePoint form rather than an MS Form so that users can select a user from the People picker. We've had issues with people typing in the wrong email address in MS forms and due to the amount of responses we get to this particular form it's a pain to manually filter through and correct responses. The form needs to be an anonymous submission. I can't see a way to do this with the new SharePoint form. Is it possible?SharePoint list with "Multiple lines of text" column not displaying entries
Hello All, Our lists that utilize "Multiple line of text" type are not displaying entries and come up blank. Example column definition: Symptom: Expecting "Line 1" and "Line 2" in View Entries.
