SharePoint (2016) subsite only visible in Internet Explorer and not in current browsers
Hello, I'm not sure what happened or where to begin troubleshooting but it seems like one of my subsites has been reverted to an older UI maybe? Lost its CSS? Because when I try to access the site in a current browser (Edge, Chrome), it looks like there's no styling applied to the page but when I access it in Internet Explorer, the page works and everything looks normal except it looks like an older version or something of that sort... I found an image online that someone else posted and seemed to have the same issue but there was nothing stated on how to really fix. Please help?! Thanks

Targeting Outdated Content to Enhance Global Search Results
Given the accelerating content scale and decreasing attention span in the modern workplace, how do you keep your global search results fresh and relevant? How do you know which content is out of date? If I see something five or more years old, or happen to notice duplicate documents, I'll reach out to the subject matter expert. The name of the content owner is in the metadata, so I know exactly who to contact. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Sharepoint Powershell View filter updated, but list displays with not items
0 In Sharepoint 2016 powershell, When I used date as filter and ran the script the view filter is updated. But the view is not displaying no data. But after i ran the script, open the view and just SAVE it WITHOUT doing any changes, the data SHOWS up. I tried the filter with a text field and ran the script, the view is filter is updated and data is showing without opening the view and saving it. Any ideas why the date field filter is not showing the data empty though it has the filter value updated? Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue $ListName = "Tracker" $ViewName = "PrevMonth" $w = Get-SPWeb https://www.testtest.com/subsite" $l = $w.Lists[$ListName]; $view = $l.Views | ? { $_.Title -eq $ViewName } $viewQuery="11/20/2021" if($view -ne $null) { $view.Query = $ViewQuery $view.Update() $l.Update() #Send message to output console write-host "View Updated Successfully!" -foregroundcolor green } else { write-host "Could Not find: " -foregroundcolor red }

SP 2016 On-Premise Document Library New button gives error
hi all we have SP 2016 on-pemise version and we use infopath forms a lot. we had some updates applied to the server and since then when users tried to add a new form by clicking NEW button on the library opens up upload dialog instead of opening infopath server. I am very sure this is because of the windows update but the update is a permanent change and cannot reverse it, any help is greatly appriciated.!

Cannot SET AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS and AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS_ASYNC status to FALSE.
Hi, Have been using SharePoint 2016 with SQL Server 2016. For compliance issues, we need to set SET AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS and AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS_ASYNC status to False. Whenever we set to false its automatically back to True after certain time. We don't have any SQL Server Agent Jobs running. My DBA suspect this could be due to some hardening settings at SharePoint. If anyone knows the solution, Please advise how to resolve.

User Control in SharePoint 2016 Solution Deploy to 16 hive but having reference of 15 hive
Hello Floks, I have installed SP2016 On Premise Enterprise Edition. I have created one User Control inside the Control Templates mapped folder of 16 hive. When the User Control is created by Visual Studio 2017, I noticed that it's having a SharePoint assembly reference of Version 15.0.0.0 which is used for SharePoint 2013. Below is SharePoint assembly in my User Control. <%@ Register Tagprefix="SharePoint" Namespace="Microsoft.SharePoint.WebControls" Assembly="Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c" %> After adding some custom html inside the user control, I have added application page and inside that added reference of my user control. It will generated something like below: <%@ Register TagPrefix="CustomControl" TagName="ViewDetails" src="~/_controltemplates/16/CustomControl/ViewUserDetails.ascx" %> Notice here, it is automatically take the reference of the 16 hive folder while adding reference of User Control from Visual Studio IDE. Once I added user control to application page, I have deployed the solution and verfied that all the files are deployed correctly at 16 hive folder. After that when I tried to access my custom page from browser it showing an error as below: The file '/_controltemplates/16/CustomControl/ViewUserDetails.ascx' does not exist. Then I have updated reference of the user control from 16 hive to 15 hive and after that page is working fine as expected. Unable to find the root cause of the issue as I have created new SharePoint 2016 solution then why it's taking reference of the 15 hive folder. Looking further to hear from your guys. Thank you very much for reading this. !!

How to disable/bypass/hide edit form that pops up after uploading new file in Document Set (SP 2016)
Hi, I have created a Document Set Content Type named "Contract" with 2 shared columns (Start Date, End Date). I have also created a Document Library named "Contracts" which use this content Type. I have created a new contract "Contract 1" based on the "Contract" Content Type then I have uploaded a word document within the "Contract 1" Document Set, then a Edit form popped up asking for updating the Start Date and End Date properties but these 2 properties have already inherited the values of the document set 's properties and I dont want values of these properties to be updated at the file level (I want them to be always the same as the values of the Document Set 's properties) So I am asking you if there is a way to prevent the user from changing the properties values of the uploaded document, so that they always stay the same as the ones inherited from the document set which it belongs to. Thanks, Regards
