Not able to use "(" - opening bracket in SharePoint Online Webpart
I have an SPO site where I am creating multiple pages. Every single page prevents me from typing an opening/left parenthesis. I can type a closing parenthesis no problem. I've cleared my cache and restarted. It began recently - probably around the same time as the update where a closing parenthesis/quotation appears when you type an opening one.CaitlinAONov 05, 2025Copper Contributor14Views0likes0CommentsSharepoint site permissions issues - Visitors group users not granted access
Hey there, One of our colleague was wrongly given the "owner" role for a SP site. That person went to the advanced permissions settings panel and randomly deleted the site default "Visitors" group. Then of course every persons depending on that permissions level to visite the site received a "Denied access" error when trying to reach the site. What we saw was no more "visitors" group in the advanced permissions settings panel BUT; "visitors" group still appearing in the basic consol on the website (gear icon>site permissions) and enclosing users; when checking access to specific pages or content "visitors" group was missing. We then recreated a new "Visitors" group with "read only" classic permissions. Yet same issue "Denied access" and same observations made (see bullets list above). We did it again creating a very similar group called "Read-only". After several trials. we asked permissions to access the page directly from the error page "Denied access". User was then able to access the site. From there we checked the permissions status for that user, from that check we can see that this user is depending on the "Visitors" and "Read-only" groups... Yet we can't see that user withing these groups... Of course if we deleted the user from all users and add it in one of these two groups, it can't access the site. We read a lot on permissions lately but can't find anyone else experiencing this. Additional info: This site is part of a hub and is the only one affected All sites are configured the same way The only settings that changes was that deleted default "visitors" group on that specific website. (so it has to come from that) We won't be asking people to ask for permissions from the "Denied access" error page since it would not solve the original issue and we set up groups within Active Directory to easily manage users and their permissions across MS apps. Should anyone have a solution ;)... Cheersgaetan2766Nov 05, 2025Copper Contributor823Views0likes8CommentsAutomatically email supplier when their certificate expires
Good afternoon. I have set myself a challenge and really could do with some help. I have a list of suppliers like below. I have expiry dates set up, with a colour formatting to show any date past the current date. On the end of the row, there is an email address of the company contact. I want SharePoint to automatically email that person as soon as it turns red/expires. What is the simplest way of doing this? I have looked at Flows etc, and online on video tutorials, but some of the guides are old and out of date or very complex and I am a novice. Is anyone kindly, can give me a step-by-step guide on how to do this, as this would be just awesome and finally bring my company into the 21st century! Thanks in advance.srk1407Nov 05, 2025Copper Contributor47Views1like3CommentsSharepoint Webpart Discussion

Custom Table Styles are breaking in Word documents stored on SharePoint. This started a week ago after a recent Office update. A solution of having only one person editing the document at a time defeats the purpose of SharePoint collaboration. Always editing in the desktop app is not a reliable solution either; not all tools are available in the browser. Tables break and fix themselves without intervention - sometimes in the desktop app and sometimes in the browser. Any insight is appreciated.robynthomas57Nov 04, 2025Occasional Reader11Views0likes0CommentsChange in SharePoint File Selection Behaviour
Has anyone noticed this in the last week/s? Basically before, you used to be able to SELECT files without opening them. Now, 5-6 times out of ten, if I try to select a document or folder it opens instead. Like, even when i am clearly clicking the checkmark to the left of the file/folder, it will STILL OPEN in the browser, rather than just selecting. It's like the file open behaviour has gotten more sensitive or something? It's really frustrating because my users need to add metadata to documents by selecting them, and now they have to fight with SharePoint nearly every time.SylvieLetNov 04, 2025Copper Contributor10Views0likes0CommentsSharePoint Template Copying
Hello Community! I am working to copy over a Site Page Template upon a list form request! Users will fill out the name of the item they're looking to create a Notice template for, and then power automate copy's the template and updates the metadata. When I update the metadata, it still shows with the name of the template page I originally copied. The following shows this happening with a template page created by copying 'CarrierNoticeTemplate' The first image shows the template titled "Test Notice", when being selected within the Page Gallery. Second image shows the template titled "Test Notice", within Site Pages. Any help would be very much appreciated.bryanfrumkin220Nov 03, 2025Copper Contributor51Views0likes2CommentsIndexing Ideas Needed - Parts I.D. Order in Libraries : Ex.) Parts R1 thru R10, R2...
GOAL: To resolve the subject line issue that is intensive and eliminates the following workaround. WORKAROUND A sequential number in a separate index number is formatted as a "Number". Many times I must export the library and add the number in MS Excel and paste these back into the library's index number column. IDEAS ON RESOLUTION Your thoughts on how to properly index the part I.D.s without a separate index number column are welcome including: Alternative formatting to apply to the alphanumeric Part I.D. description in the Part I.D. column to promote correct indexing Any programmed solutions Best regards, Clint HillClint_E_HillNov 03, 2025Brass Contributor44Views0likes3Comments
