SharePoint HomePage is downloading the url instead of opening it up.
I created a list of links that I want my SharePoint modern site to navigate to when I visit the site/homepage. The list of links also resides on the SharePoint site. However, when I click my homepage...
I still don't understand why you are skipping the home page of the site when you can just make your homepage a page with links, quick links, hero web part of links etc. etc. ?
You're right - I could, but I just wanted a simple list with maybe a description attached without images. Hero Pages have images, Quick Links have images. I just thought using a list of links was the most elegant solution to doing this.
- Have you tried a custom list? Create one with just a Hyperlink column, and description column, then edit the view to remove the title, and add the list webpart selecting that list. that will give you a clickable URL Link with description.
Deleted I think what he's trying to point out is that a URL object stored in a Document library web-part added to a page behaves differently to how it behaves if you are just looking at the full document library. In the web-part it prompts to download the URL. If you click it from the full document library page it opens the link in the browser.
RTRobin Thakur yes! Any updates on if there are ways to change this behavior?
