How to get a custom Site Page content type to show in the Site Pages Library New dropdown?
I have created a new Site Pages content type from the SharePoint Admin Center Content Type hub. The parent content type is Site Pages. When I add the content type to the Site Pages library on a site, the new content type does not appear in the New dropdown. I have verified the new Content Type shows in the Site Pages Library Settings: I have also confirmed the new button order: How do I get the new Site Pages Content Type to show in the New dropdown of Site Pages Library?
File Type Version Limits
Hi all, In trying to solve an old issue I stumbled across this new feature currently in preview and am wondering if the file type arrays will be editable or if new arrays could be or will be added? I have a handful of file types which do not need 100 versions, let alone a version every 2-5 minutes, requiring frequent culling...

Renaming a folder with too many files
One of our teams has a Team/SharePoint site with an archive folder. Everything in there is old files, and they'd like to rename the folder. However, we get the error that it exceeds the list view threshold. I've spent the afternoon trying to find out how to get this folder renamed and so far nothing has worked. The general consensus is to create a filtered view, but I'm not sure what to filter it based on, as all of the files have been there and untouched for some time, causing most of the columns I could index be fairly similar (they were moved to SharePoint 3 years ago from an on-prem fileshare). One of the options I'd seen was to sync it using OneDrive and rename it locally but that still gave me the same error. I also tried renaming the folder from within Teams without success. If someone could provide some guidance for how to get this done, I'd appreciate it. Right now, I'm thinking I'll just have to move a bunch of stuff out of some of the folders to temporary locations, but even that is challenging as I'm not aware of a good way to get a count of items in folders and subfolders in SharePoint to know which are the best ones to move out.Trimming SharePoint Version History - Minor Versions
Hello, I am a SharePoint Admin at my organization and I have been asked to reduce our total storage usage by reducing the number of versions and minor versions in our environment on all SharePoint sites. I have written a simple PowerShell script that loops through a csv file with site addresses, and runs this command per site -> New-SPOSiteFileVersionBatchDeleteJob -Identity $site.siteURL -MajorVersionLimit 100 -MajorWithMinorVersionsLimit 5 It was my understanding that for all sites in the csv file, for all document libraries on the site, and for all files in the libraries this command will reduce the file to the last 100 Major versions, and the last 5 minor versions of each major version. Unfortunately, this command is not actually reducing the minor versions. It is working with the Major versions just fine, but all minor versions are being retained for each major version retained. Is my understanding of this command wrong, or is it not working? Are there other factors to consider? Does anyone know of an alternative that can fit my needs? The overall plan is to trim the current version history, then apply the automatic version setting to each library in our tenant. Here is the MS guide I referenced, maybe I missed something -> https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/tutorial-queue-a-trim-job Any help is greatly appreciated, Cam

New to board, question
Hello, I am trying to find the right place to ask architecture questions and issues with SharePoint. If this is the right place, please let me know suggestions or where I can search for the following: We are running SharePoint Online. I do not have O365 Admin rights. I had created the Vandelay Project examples, site columns and document content types. After "playing" with the project I deleted the site columns from the content types, tried to delete the content types but keep getting the message they are being used somewhere. I put a ticket in with our IT but they have been unable to delete these with their rights. I have renamed them with a "z_" and assigned them to a Deprecated group. Can someone suggest what to do? Thank you, Carol
Page Redirection
Hello, I am trying to simulate a migration scenario in SharePoint Online and am running into a limitation I cannot resolve. For demo/testing purposes, I have two SharePoint Online sites (e.g. Old and New). I would like to redirect a small number of individual pages from the old site to corresponding pages in the new site, while the rest of the old site remains unchanged. Example: Redirect https://ps3c.sharepoint.com/sites/Old/SitePages/Test.aspx to https://ps3c.sharepoint.com/sites/New/SitePages/Test.aspx The page is a modern SharePoint page, and the URL itself is fixed for the purpose of the demo (i.e. users or tools open the page directly on *.sharepoint.com). All documentation I could find only describes redirecting entire SharePoint sites, not individual modern pages. Client-side approaches (JavaScript, HTML meta refresh, etc.) also appear to be blocked in modern SharePoint. Is there any supported or recommended way in SharePoint Online to implement page-level redirects for modern pages, or is this currently not supported by design? Kind regards

How can I rename a library in SharePoint?
Due to some testing with a failing copy flow, I have discovered that I need to rename a few libraries to get the flow to work properly with the requirements my clients have settled on. Is it possible to rename a library? I also need to edit the Web Address in List Information.
Add items Permission level
Hi, I'd like to know a way to set permissions on a list so that users in the SharePoint site - Members group can't see existing items in the list that don't have unique permissions assigned. They can only add new items in this list. Once an item is created, a workflow would be triggered that would add a unique permission only for that item. The problem is that when creating a Permission Level with only the ability to add items, the user loses access to the custom item creation form.
