Sharepoint linked contact lists over sites
- Mar 11, 2020
Here is my thought - I hope you find something in it that works for you!
- Create a central project site that has info on it that might pertain to ALL projects (I suggest a Communication Site)
- Make this new site a Hub site
- Create a master contacts list that lives on the site created above
- Add a link to the hub navigation that points to the master contacts list
- Now associate/join all of the project sites to the new Project Hub site created in the first step
With this set up, every associated project will have the same hub navigation at the very top with a link that points to the contact list that lives on the central hub site
I was going to suggest adding a Highlighted Content web part...but apparently that only works for documents! Ugh...if you could select a list in Highlighted Content then that would allow you to grab items from that list that lives on the hub and pull them into a page on any of the associated project sites.
Good luck and please let us know if any of this works for you!
Thanks Rob...yes I know it's for more than just docs...but it is NOT for list items (with the exception of events) which was what I was trying to say. Unless I'm missing something.
pnthrzrule for list items you need to use a KQL custom query in the highlighted content web part. But it only brings back the Title and Modified columns unfortunately and you have to click on the item in the web part to go to the list item.
