Re: Restrict shareing files in a document library to members of that document library
Hi ian-mcguinness it is not possible to restrict sharing links to files to only users that already have access to the document library by default. Here are a lot of documentation, but i think not what you looking for: https://learn.microsoft.com/sharepoint/turn-external-sharing-on-or-off?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845 You can also set the Site sharing settings, but not restricted to existing users: As an alternative, you can try to use a flow, checks whether the user is authorized or not.

Hi Picab73 Here are the official documentation about list forms: https://learn.microsoft.com/sharepoint/dev/declarative-customization/list-form-configuration#configure-custom-body-with-one-or-more-sections?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845 And a existing solution from another case: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-au/answers/questions/2181733/customize-sharepoint-body-form-layout-using-json-c Best, Dave3Views0likes0CommentsRe: Different languages in different sites
Hi JulieLe346 a lot additional languages are activated in every site. It's possible to deactivate the additional languages and the default language will be active. (Settings > Site information > View all site settings > Language settings) More informations about multilingual sites: https://support.microsoft.com/office/create-multilingual-sharepoint-sites-pages-and-news-2bb7d610-5453-41c6-a0e8-6f40b3ed750c?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845 Best, Dave10Views0likes0CommentsRe: Sharepoint Server SE

Hi rmsterling the M365 SharePoint default Button layout has no picture, the Grid layout can have a picture. I think, it's a normal behaviour, that the title appears anytime, not only when you hover over it... If this standard behavior is not normal for you, then it could be that you are using customizing, which is causing the problem. P.s.: You tagged online and server in your ...make not sense... :/ Best, Dave24Views0likes0CommentsRe: Sharepoint list column type removing hyperlink
Hi ux0042 this behaviour make sense. Use instead the link direct to your OneNote web app. The idea from this is: It can be a security whole, to use links direct to desktop apps (safety first) Everyone can open the web links, even if someone does not have OneNote or has an old version on their desktop Best, Dave46Views0likes0CommentsRe: Strange Auto-Publishing Behavior in a Homesite
Hi karen_dredske Microsoft has changed the process, maybe it has an impact to your behaviour. From an Microsoft article https://support.microsoft.com/office/create-and-use-modern-pages-on-a-sharepoint-site-b3d46deb-27a6-4b1e-87b8-df851e503dec?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845 : Note: Instead of Save as draft , you may see Save and close in the command bar. This means your organization has pages coauthoring capability where you can invite other authors to edit the same page or news post at the same time. You can learn more about that here . You can find more details about Co-Authroing in this article: https://support.microsoft.com/office/collaborate-on-sharepoint-pages-and-news-with-coauthoring-91d7dc25-37c3-44a4-99da-f552e0f9cfe9?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845 Best, Dave55Views0likes0CommentsRe: Origin and Synchronization of User Profile Properties in SharePoint Online
Hi rosamartinamilazzo25 the properties in this article https://learn.microsoft.com/sharepoint/user-profile-sync?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845 will be synced from Entra ID to UPA. You can see the synced properties with a database icon in your UPA. Other properties are only stroed in the UPA. You can sync more properties from Entra ID to UPA with custom development and PnP PowerShell. Best, Dave40Views0likes2CommentsRe: Why Is SharePoint’s Priority Column Free Text and Not a Choice Field?
Dennis-Scherrer The template comes with some JSON formatting pre-applied on the choice pills (icons in this case). Because of that, the GUI based choice editor does not work from column settings pane. To still format the pills, you can go inside format this column option > switch to design mode and you can use the "normal" pills-designer.

Hi IBN22 when a user have edit access, he have the same permission on all other devices and browsers with this M365 account. You have written: "When a user with confirmed 'Edit' rights tries editing a document from a different device or browser it is grayed out using Edge browser as usually use Chrome." >> that means, it works on one device? What do you mean with it is grayed out? How it looks greayed out? First picture are the permissions on the document (= item-level permission). Second one are the site permissions, when a user have item-level permissions or edit on library level, it is ok, he don't need edit permissions on the whole site. Third are from a list, but when he can create new documents, it looks good ond library level Options to check: Is the document checked out? Do you use a Flow or approvals? Ensure that permissions are correct at every level. This is very important when operating SharePoint. Best, Dave31Views0likes0CommentsRe: Why Is SharePoint’s Priority Column Free Text and Not a Choice Field?
Hi Dennis-Scherrer i have created a Issue tracker list with the Microsoft default list template and have the same behaviour, but only in the column Priority, not in others like Status. I have never seen this behavior either, but I don't use the list templates and create my own custom lists. When you create your own Priority column, you can configure it like you did a year ago.

Hi Aalghoul you can use PnP Modern Search WebParts https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/ for a dynamic filtering in Search WebParts. I have created a scenario tutorial about this case: https://microsoft-search.github.io/pnp-modern-search/scenarios/use-query-string-in-url/ Best, Dave168Views1like0CommentsRe: Recommendations for SharePoint Accessibility Training

Hi DarioCL Microsoft has changed the template gallery, maybe it's a side effect. The url /_layouts/15/CreatePageFromTemplate.aspx it's the same as when you use the default SharePoint menu New > Page, an there it's work fine with default settings: In Document Content Types you can add a url to your document template: In what library do you use your new ContentType? What is your UseCase to use the default url /_layouts/15/CreatePageFromTemplate.aspx vor a custom ContentType? Best, Dave15Views1like1Comment
