When I try to move a file or folder, the destination dialogue box lists only a subset of sites I have access to under two headings: Following and Recent. How can I choose a site that is in neither of these categories?Solved90KViews5likes79CommentsSharepoint library - Lookup stopped working just on one column
I have a library with lookup columns pointing to specific lists (providers, companies, products etc.). In particular, I have two columns, "Company" and "Invoicee" pointing to the same list "companies". Everything worked perfectly for months, but suddenly since yesterday the lookup for the "Invoicee" columns stopped working. When I start typing, it seems that it starts looking for a match but it keeps looping forever. The other column "Company" that points to the same lookup list does not present the same problem and is still working properly. I thought it could be a temporary issue but today the problem is still there. Any idea on how to fix this?1.9KViews1like3CommentsRestored SharePoint 2013 content database has missing libraries
I recently added a new site collection to a SharePoint 2013 environment and attached a restored content database from a different environment (also 2013). The process involved was: backup SP database on original environment restore database to new environment add restored db as new content database in SP create new site collection to use the new db It all worked fine, with no issues occurring, but when I view the Site Contents in SP, the only libraries visible are the standard ones (Documents, Site Assets, Site Pages, etc) - none of the libraries that were part of the restored database appear. A count of AllDocs confirms that the documents are in the db - it's just there are no libraries showing. I can confirm in the Site Collection List in SP Central Admin that the new site collection is pointing to the right db. I've also double checked this from PowerShell using: $site=Get-SPSite "http://<sp_url>" write-host $site.ContentDatabase.Name Did I do something wrong? Or miss something out? The backup and restore of the original SP database was done by the DBAs and was pretty lengthy due to its size (~3.8TB), so I'm really hoping this doesn't have to get re-done!

We're having a problem with a SharePoint online modern library in displaying PDF files content. The user will navigate to the document in the library, and the content shows at first, and then a moment later the content of the pdf form disappears. One thing to note is that in both Chrome and Edge that this is presenting in the same way for another user. Even after clearing cache and restarting computer. For myself, in testing, it is only happening in Chrome and not Edge. I'm not sure if there are settings I am missing that is causing this, but would appreciate any help or thoughts in solving this.31KViews0likes23CommentsQuick Links - Library Connection not working
Dear All, Previously, I was using Quick Links Web Part to connect my libraries to my pages. While I was connecting them, I had the chance to connect more than 1 library with multiple selection. Since last Wednesday, I can't select those libraries anymore. You may see my screen below. Whenever I come on top of those libraries, only option I have is to open the library. Unfortunately, I need the link to library itself. Does anyone know how to solve this? I've wasted hours on this already and couldn't come up with any solution on internet... Did they change the way Quick Links Web Part works? (I've tried 3 different laptops and 2 different accounts, still failed) Thanks in advance for your attention.2.1KViews0likes7CommentsSharepoint library view issue
Hi, We have a sharepoint document library with lots of files in it. When we sort the files with date (older to newer) in library, instead of showing the files it shows a message "Load more items". We have to click on this message multiple times and then the files show up. We are deleting the older files from the library and initially we only had click on this message couple times. But as we are deleting the older files now we have to click 8-9 times to show the files. This keeps on increasing and we are not sure how to fix this issue.745Views0likes0CommentsDynamic hyperlinks to Sharepoint library in Office documents
In the Office documents (Excel, Word, Powerpoint) there is a hyperlink to other documents. The document to which it is hyperlinked is located in the same document library. When the documents are moved to another Team, and are located in another document library - then all hyperlinks must be changed. Is there any functionality that can be used to achieve relative addressing in hyperlinks - so they do not have to be changed (since all documents are in the same Library. In the Word app it Works to remove the path and only use filename in the address, but when i edit the dokument in Teams or in WOrd Online the link need a full url)3.3KViews0likes0CommentsSharePoint IDs in my SharePoint Online Library randomly Increased 10-fold? Is this a problem?
Hello, As you can see in the screenshot below. I created a Sharepoint Library and set it to show the ID field since I use this field as a way to track documents that are created and placed within my library. This is a brand new library that started at 1 when I first created it. All was going good until a couple of days ago when I noticed that the Unique ID field had jumped from around 2000 to 38000 and the number just keeps going up! As far as I know, this ID field is supposed to increment by 1 every time a new file is added correct? I definitely didnt add 36000 files to my library. What is happening here? Should I be concerned that there are some hidden files that are taking up space in my library somewhere? Is this normal and theres nothing for me to worry about? Could this prevent me from adding to my library in the future say if I reach a character limit on the unique id field? Any insight is appreciated!Solved2KViews0likes1CommentSharePoint Lists - Expanded View Roadmap ID: 57302
Tried this in our tenant this morning and there doesn't appear to be any option to minimise/reverse the expansion when it is selected. The only workaround I've found is to reload the page which removes any list or library items that were selected. Causing a few issues with users already, is this normal behaviour?Solved2.8KViews2likes12Comments
