SharePoint Home Roadmap
I haven't heard much about the plans that Microsoft has for the SharePoint Home Page. Additionally, UserVoice doesn't provide any insights on this. Can the SharePoint Team share their plans with us? Since many of us in the community are planning, testing and implementing newly developed features, it would be good to understand what is coming re: SP Home. This is important as we make decisions around whether we should invest time into creating a home page experience using a SharePoint Page, or use the native SP Home. For example: How do you see Hub Sites impacting the Home Page? Will a Hub site be more heavily weighted than the sites that the hub delivers content for? How will this relate to other sites in your ecosystem which aren't a hub or aren't part of a hub? What kind of Administrator-controlled customization is planned for the Tiles of a Site? It would be nice to be able to tag them with a category and have a view by category function allowing you to sort and filter. It would be nice to be able to control the color of the top bar. Some tiles appear to pick up the color from the palette of the site, others do not. It would be nice to have this be independent from the site's color so it can be used to categorize "like" things, regardless of what the site looks like. What kind of user views are planned? Will users have the ability to Group, Filter or Sort Sites on their home page? Will a user be able to "Pin" a site? The featured links functionality is great for an administrator to publish sites. It would also be good for users to be able to make their own shortcuts. Will there be Calendar/Event aggregation? The news aggregation feature is awesome Is the same sort of thing planned for calendar items across all the User's sites? What other functionality are you planning on delivering on the SP Home? The SharePoint Home is a bit of a mystery, any information that can be shared would be appreciated. ---------- If you like these ideas, please vote on them in UserVoice! https://sharepoint.uservoice.com/forums/329214-sites-and-collaboration/suggestions/32614372-categorize-customize-sharepoint-home-site-tiles https://sharepoint.uservoice.com/forums/329214-sites-and-collaboration/suggestions/32614525-user-personalization-of-the-sharepoint-home https://sharepoint.uservoice.com/forums/329214-sites-and-collaboration/suggestions/32614546-event-aggregation-on-sharepoint-home
