SharePoint list with a Link to Documents (hyperlink) column. When you click the link, it should open to the library where these documents are stored based on the associated ID for the record with all the documents that have that "Document ID", in this case 5550. /AllItems.aspx?FilterField1=ABC_ID&FilterValue1=5550&FilterType1=Text This field is a Hyperlink field The item opens in the library where the documents are all being stored, but is showing an additional filter value (sometimes, it will show three additional values) for example, it will show 5550, 5596, 2208 (all random each time). Is it caching old searched filters? When I go to the library and clear all filters and then filter from the All documents on the 5550, I get all my documents back no problem. I compared the URL with the broken filter to the URL from the all documents filter and they are the exact same Why would this be happening? What is breaking the filter and adding or stacking additional filters to the requested link. Any help to fix this would be appreciated.101Views1like6CommentsSharePoint Template Creation - fail
we have our main intranet site - the default sharepoint url for our company and then we have various other sites, for collaboration, teams, projects etc. We can make templates for pages and news posts etc in all sites.... except our main site. anyone know a reason as to why? i raised a MS ticket, and they say it is because SharePoint modern sites cannot do this. However all our sites are modern, so why does it work on all, except our main intranet site?112Views1like4CommentsCalander Pop-up Clipped Vertically
My SharePoint calendar pop-up is being clipped vertically and only displaying 4 days per week in the date picker. I created a new date column and the issue still persists. I tested in both Edge and Chrome with the browser zoom set to 100%, and the problem does not change when zooming in or out. Has anyone experienced this issue before or found a fix? Attached screenshot for ref erence.126Views2likes4CommentsHow are you creatively working around the SharePoint List View Threshold
Hi community I'm looking for outside-the-box approaches to dealing with the SharePoint List View Threshold (5,000 item limit). I'm familiar with the standard guidance, indexed columns, filtered views, folders, but I'm curious how others have solved this more creatively, especially in M365/SharePoint Online environments where you can't raise the threshold from the admin side. Additionally, if you've tackled this in a healthcare, government, or other highly regulated environment where you couldn't just move to an external database easily. Would love to hear what's worked (and what's blown up) in practice. Thanks in advance!Solved125Views1like3CommentsGroup List together under site content
I'm working on a new site and working on creating all the new list and libraries. Might get really big really quick for the new department. There a way to group List together instead of making all the names the same? Doubt there is, just thought I'd ask.97Views0likes3CommentsSharePoint Template Gallery
Hey everyone, I'm running into an issue with the new SharePoint site page template gallery. Some of my templates are showing up consistently, while others appear intermittently — even though all the metadata is identical across them. I've been troubleshooting but can't pinpoint what's causing the inconsistency. For context: I have over 100 templates in the gallery. A template I just created is displaying fine, but one I made last week isn't showing up at all, so I don't think it's a template count issue. Any insights would be really appreciated!94Views1like2CommentsCustom column layout breaks on mobile view — SharePoint Online Communication Site
Hi everyone, I'm working on a SharePoint Online Communication Site and I've built a custom card section manually each element (image, text, badge, link) was added as a separate web part and organized inside a column section. On desktop it looks exactly as designed. The issue is on *mobile view*: all elements fall apart. The image sits alone at the top, the text below it disconnected, as if the column grouping doesn't exist at all. I understand SharePoint collapses columns into a single column on mobile, but I'd expect it to at least respect the visual grouping of each block. What I've already tried: - "Embed" web part → only accepts iframe, HTML/CSS not supported - "Script editor / Code snippet" web part → accepts inline CSS but it's not a sustainable solution for non-technical users My question: Is there any native setting, web part, or no-code alternative that allows custom card layouts to look good on both desktop and mobile without breaking the grouping? Thanks in advance.49Views0likes1CommentColumn Visibility based on previous people column
We've setup persistent approvals for travel requests using a Power Automate flow (not the built-in workflow), so the approved status is not lost if/when the list item is edited. We have a choice column for Approval Request allowing "Draft" and "Submitted". Just need a control to prevent saving the list item as "Submitted" if there is no selection in the Approver (people) column. As you know, we can't use a people column to evaluate conditional visibility on the list form... https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/declarative-customization/list-form-conditional-show-hide And we've tried JSON formatting with a 'helper' column to show if an approver has been assigned or not: { "$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json", "elmType": "div", "txtContent": "=if(length([$Approver]) > 0, 'Assigned', 'Unassigned')" } But this doesn't set a value in the column so cannot be used for list validation settings. To reduce complexity, we're trying to do this without using a Power Apps form and conditional visibility... but maybe it's not possible? Already found this help redirecting to Power Apps... https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/discussions/sharepoint_general/column-visibility-based-on-previous-multi-choice-column/3987360 Any alternative suggestions are welcomed.

Hi Team, We have a customer using SharePoint in a secure environment. While configuring the Prolaborate SharePoint Macro on their site, a consent popup is displayed during the approval process. Previously, our macro implementation used the Admin Consent flow. Based on the customer’s security and approval requirements, we have modified the consent to use the User Consent flow instead. The customer has requested additional clarification regarding the consent process. Specifically, they would like to understand: The exact API calls triggered for these two consents View your basic profile Maintain access to data you have given it access to The permissions being requested from Microsoft Graph or SharePoint Whether the application requests any tenant-wide or high-privilege permissions Whether minimal permissions such as Sites.Selected can be used instead of broader scopes Current concern: The customer feels the current permission request is too broad for approval within their secure environment (Banking customer). Reason: Their internal approval process requires clear visibility into the exact API and permission scopes being requested, as different permissions are reviewed and approved by different internal teams (for example, User.Read is managed by the Identity team). From our implementation side, we are using only custom APIs and are not directly calling Microsoft Graph APIs. This information will help us provide a clear response to the customer and support their internal approval process.24Views0likes0CommentsUpdated design for collapsible sections SharePoint
We're seeing an updated design for collapsible sections in SharePoint as of today. The control arrow for the section now appears either over ("Left") or under ("Right") the header. Is this intentional? If it's not intentional - I presume that the arrow should appear either to the left or right of the header, not over or under and this may be fixed soon. If it's intentional - please change this so that we have the option that it is actually to the left or right of the header! The extra space that is showing right now ruins the look of the design, and it's confusing which arrow belongs to which header.Solved229Views0likes3Comments
