We have multiple hub sites in SharePoint, but one central landing page, HUB SITE that should be accessible from everywhere. How can we provide a consistent global link or navigation to this page across all sites and pages, including system pages where the hub header is not visible?Solved28Views0likes2CommentsI need some simple layman explanation
Hi, I am involved with an implementation of an epm system that is integrated into sharepoint M365 and I started reading on its manual on the setting it up for the first time. I know the steps but I wish to get some simple understanding of why the steps are needed since I am not a very technical person. The tool involves the deployment of an addin in Microsoft word (both web and desktop app). The manual said the addin app can be installed by the user directly from app store or being deployed by the M365 administrator to group of users...but in the section for M365 administrator to deploy this addin app, it said that permission needs to be granted to the app. The permissions are: openid profile sites.selected user.read So why is it ok to let user install directly (without any instruction to set permissions) but when M365 administrator do it, it suddenly needs the given permission? In addition, the manual said to run a powershell script in order to grant permission to the sharepoint site created for the epm system integration. it wrote that sharepoint admin must have Microsoft graph powershell SDK installed and run the script being signed in as site owner. What is this powershell script that it needs special installation to run? Then something mention that when deploying the addin to a group of users, there is a step to run a manifest script. This step might need to be re-execute if there is changes in the addin development. What is this Manifest meant for in Sharepoint? What does it do? Thank you in advance.8Views0likes0CommentsPnP Template Error: "Invalid field name {guid}
Hello, I'm trying to apply a site template from one SharePoint Online site to another using PnP PowerShell. I have custom lists, some of them with a specific dependency chain: List X has a lookup to List Y. List Y has a lookup to List Z. All libraries/lists have "Allow management of content types" enabled. The cmdlets I run: Export: Get-PnPSiteTemplate -Out template.pnp -Handlers All -IncludeAllClientSidePages -PersistBrandingFiles Import: Invoke-PnPSiteTemplate -Path template.pnp The Error: During the Invoke process, I get: Invoke-PnPSiteTemplate : Invalid field name {guid} targetsharepoint site What I’ve tried: I attempted to manually remove the ID="{guid}" attributes from the XML inside the .pnp package, but that just makes the template schema invalid. Verified that I am connected to the target site with owner permissions. How can this issue be fixed? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!13Views0likes0CommentsModern Lists Missing Ribbon to Add/Edit Items
Has anyone run into this with SharePoint? In the modern experience, I’m not seeing the ribbon/options to add or edit items at all, but when I switch to the classic experience, everything shows up as expected. I’ve checked permissions and basic settings, but nothing obvious stands out. Starting to wonder if this is a configuration issue, a feature setting I’m missing, or something specific to modern UI limitations. Has anyone dealt with this before? What ended up being the fix? Thanks. This is how my modern experience currently looks. When I switch over to the classic experience, I can see those options again.40Views0likes1CommentHero and Quick Links web parts not supporting library and folder links
In the last few days, I noticed the "picker" modal used by the Hero and Quick Links visually changed. I didn't think anything of it at first until I realized the Hero web part was no longer allowing me to select libraries or folders to serve as the link. This was using the "Site" blade, which appropriately shows all the libraries and lets me drill into each and see the contents, but the ability to select a library or folder doesn't work. To make matters much worse, the "From a link" blade doesn't work either. "From a link" now seems to have a new validation component, so when I attempt to paste in a library or folder URL (i.e. https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/HR/Benefits) it detects that it's a SharePoint resource and displays a folder for me to select before I'm allowed to commit it - problem is, I still can't select this. I've tried pointing to the .aspx page that correlates to a library/folder view - doesn't work. I tried creating a Link in the library/folder that points to itself - I can't select these either. The Quick Links web part, on the other hand, does allow me to select these - same exact UI but allows for selecting libraries and folders. This does work for folders, but does not work for libraries. It visually looks like it works for libraries, but when you save the change is not really committed. I'm genuinely surprised to not have found this issue reported elsewhere so far. I assume this has to be a bug and hope it's fixed soon - allowing your most popular web parts to link to the root of content in your own platform is one of the most basic feature requirements and for this to break and not be noticed is pretty alarming.589Views8likes9CommentsSharePoint List Rule to send email not allowing shared mailbox email address
Hi I have tried to search for an answer to this to no avail. We have a SharePoint list and want to create a rule that sends an email when a new list item is created. Sounds simple but I can't seem to add a SharedMailbox email address only UserMailbox email addresses. We do have a work around where we have created a rule in outlook instead that when the email arrives to the UserMailbox forward it to the correct SharedMailbox but it seems a bit silly that I can't directly add a SharedMailbox to the SharePoint list directly from the below. See below the screenshot of where I am trying to insert the SharedMailbox email address. It doesn't find it and if I add it in manually the create rule button doesn't activate. Am I missing something? Thank you!2.5KViews1like4CommentsHow can I stop a user from resharing a document if they have Edit access on that item?
I want to share a document with someone in my organization and give them Edit access, but I also want to prevent that user from sharing the file with anyone else (within organization). Below solutions are not applicable to me Use site or library‑level settings to block members from sharing and only owners can share. This solution is not applicable to us. Use Sensitivity Labels or Purview policies to restrict resharing. We don't have Purview81Views1like2CommentsSite header: overflows to navigation bar
We use SharePoint for our intranet, and with a rebrand coming, we're building new headers for each of the sites that make up the intranet. Since we first built our sites, the site header behaviour seems to have changed: it overflows vertically into the navigation bar, rather than constraining it to the height of the actual header (above the nav). Not ideal, but I'd adjusted where the business logo sits in the height to work well. However, when you scroll down and the header compresses, this chops the top half of the logo off. Anyone have any similar experience/solutions? I don't want to deploy a CSS code, as that's likely to break later. Alternatively, if the lovely people at Microsoft could put it back to constrain it within the banner height, that'd be great. It's easier to create a super wide image (to avoid gaps) than it is to juggle the variables when height overflows differently on different screens. Thanks in advance!73Views0likes2CommentsUpcoming change: Retirement of noise suppression capability for ODSP video
We're writing to inform you of an upcoming change to video playback features in OneDrive and SharePoint. What's changing: Starting July 1, 2026, the noise suppression feature for video playback on OneDrive and SharePoint will be retired. This feature, which reduces background noise during video playback, will no longer be available in the web playback experience. Based on usage data and our ongoing effort to streamline the video experience on OneDrive and SharePoint, we've made the decision to deprecate this capability. Please share your feedback through Noise Suppression Feature Survey so we can continue to improve the video experience on OneDrive and SharePoint. What this means for your content: Your video content is not affected. No original files will be modified or re-encoded – this change only impacts the playback experience. Noise suppression will no longer be available as a playback toggle option when viewing videos stored on OneDrive or SharePoint. No changes to other video and audio playback features – including playback speed controls, captions, and transcripts – remain available and are unaffected by this change. What administrators need to know: No admin action is required. The noise suppression option will be removed automatically after the retirement date. There are no tenant-level settings to manage for this change. Alternative options: If noise suppression is important to your workflow, please consider these alternatives: Pre-process your audio using a dedicated noise removal tool before uploading to OneDrive or SharePoint. Record in a quieter environment or use a directional microphone to minimize background noise at the source. We value your feedback: We understand this change may affect some of your workflows, and we want to hear from you. Please share your feedback through Noise Suppression Feature Survey so we can continue to improve the video experience on OneDrive and SharePoint. All other video playback capabilities on OneDrive and SharePoint remain fully available. We're committed to continuing to invest in features that help you get the most out of your video content.855Views0likes0Comments
