13 TopicsFormatting of Tables in modern pages
I recently noticed that when I add a table to a modern page (using the Text web part and paste from Word) the formatting of the columns doesn't automatically wrap the text any longer. The column widths just grow with the size of the text. This naturally creates a horizontal scroll bar in order to view the entire table contents (not very user friendly at all). I've added tables in the past and haven't observed this behavior before. In the past the text would wrap so that the entire table was visible. Was this change intentional? Is this a bug?59KViews0likes32CommentsConfigure Search Results in Modern page (Modern Search Center)
Has anyone been able to modify the search results page of Modern Pages which seems to have missing that at present. There is no way to customize the results view, switch to classic view, use custom result sources or redirect to enterprise search center. It always defaults to "/search/sitefiles" location instead of only "/search". Is there a way to hook into the route and default it to global or do any of the above. If the modern search results page is not customizable, is there a way (powershell, csom or configurable) way to redirect to classic SharePoint search center page.45KViews0likes17CommentsModern Site Page People Web Part
I had planned to use the People web part (see attached) on the modern page to list a contact person. Then I discovered it only provides a name, title, and the circle (with initials or picture). Are there plans to have it link to profiles so one can hover or click on the name to get more information, e.g. email, phone number?Solved36KViews0likes63CommentsCan not add Task List and Issue tracking list to a Modern Site Pages as web part
I am not able to add Task List and Issue tracking list as web part in Modern Site pages. Although Document Library and Generic Lists are being added successfully. Am I missing something here? Do I need to activate some site feature or something? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in Advance !28KViews0likes20CommentsModern sites - news webpart limitations
Hi - I'm about to launch a new intranet based on communication sites and finding lots of limitations with the news web part 1) The owner of my homepage would like to be able to identify news articles in the list of site pages. I've added the column promotedstate (using lookup from promoted state) to site pages to try and show where the value is 2 but can't get any values to display in that list view. Is there a better way?. It would be great if Microsoft would provide a way for pages to be changed to news articles. 2) Ideally we want to be able to rank news stories to control the order they appear. Is there any method to use a refineable field or managedproperty to do this? 3) The modern news web part doesn't have any controls to say whether to show news from just this site or the site collection. I'm therefore forced to use highlighted content for news which doesn't display news articles in the same way (you don't get the same first sentence of the article shown). Is there any other way to refine what the news web part searches for? It seems to be the only modern web part with no controls when its one of the most important things on a homepage!

Hi Folks, Currently have a automatic site creation tool up and running. I know using the PnP engine no content will be included in the template, but is there any way on the newly created site on the main home page (Modern Page) I can change the banner image using PowerShell to reference an image stored somewhere else? Thanks!Solved8.3KViews0likes4CommentsList Web Part Expand/Collapse View Broken on Modern Site Page
When attempting to display a list view on a SharePoint Online Modern Site Page for FAQ questions and answers the Answer field (multiple lines of text) is not displaying the values. In the examples below all question and answer fields have values and should display. In the actual list itself the same view shows both the Answer and Question values just as expected. Answer Field = Required (List Web Part) When I have the Answer field set as required (no matter if it is Plain, Rich, or Enhanced Rich text) it shows that required info is missing even though all the Answer fields have values in them. Using the List View Web Part I see the following: If I click the heading, "Question: Question #1 here? (1)" in the list view web part I then see the value for the Answer: Answer Field = Not Required (List Web Part) When I have the Answer field set as not required (no matter if it is Plain, Rich, or Enhanced Rich text) it shows no value even though all the Answer fields have values in them. Using the List View Web Part I see the following: If I click the heading, "Question: Question #1 here? (1)" in the list view web part I then see the value for the Answer:7.2KViews0likes5CommentsPublished Date Format not set properly on Modern Site Pages in SharePoint online - AU Region
Has anyone looked into an issue with date format of Published date on Modern Site Page? It is somehow setting to US date format even though the regional setting is set to Australia. Have ruled out the user profile setting as it is set to use the option by site administrators. The same issue also occurs in Communication site pages.6.1KViews2likes9CommentsSearching for SharePoint Modern Pages
I was looking at using a sharepoint site as a collaborative "wiki" style best practices/knowledge site (not using the old wiki system, because old sharepoint is on its way out) by encouraging editing. After some fiddling, it doesn't appear that search is very sensible for these pages, nor is there any way to "tag" or attach any useful labels/metadata to them to aid in searching/filtering. Search also doesn't seem to make any sense for them, and looks to only return results where words in either the title or url match(or maybe even some other unseen data). Is there something I am missing here? Or are modern pages really not usefully searchable?4KViews0likes5CommentsSharePoint 2019 - Embed w/ Anonymous access causes authentication popups.
Hello, everyone. I would like a solution I have to a problem regarding the OOB Embed webpart for SP 2019 Modern Site Pages. Currently, when you have anonymous access turned on, and you go to a page with an embedded video, it will try and get the user to authenticate in order to perform a POST request to _api/SP.Publishing.EmbedService/DataEmbed. The video still loads up as normal, but the authentication prompt is intrusive to the User Experience. Any advise would be helpful. Thanks, ASSolved3.6KViews0likes6Comments
