Validation rule for postal code is being ignored
In the SharePoint list, there is a column “Country” and a column “Postal Code.” A validation rule has been configured in the list validation settings to ensure that when the country “Germany” is selected, only postal codes with exactly 5 digits can be saved. Currently, this validation rule is being completely ignored. Regardless of whether the postal code contains fewer, more, or no digits at all, the entry can always be saved. The validation does not take effect. Expected Behavior: When Germany is selected in the Country field, the entry should only be saved if the postal code contains exactly 5 numeric characters. If the input is invalid, an appropriate error message should appear and prevent saving. Actual Behavior: The validation rule is ignored. All inputs — including invalid postal codes — are saved. No error message is displayed. Impact: Incorrect or incomplete data is stored in the list. Manual corrections are required afterward, causing additional effort and increasing the risk of errors. The english version of formule we used =IF([Land]="Deutschland", IF(LEN([Postleitzahl])=5, 1, 0)) Why doesn't the validation work? Thank you in advance for your comments !
Quick links webpart will not open link
Hi, I'm new to Sharepoint and trying to create a simple site using sharepoing on web. I'm having issues with quick link webpart. I have created multiple links with custom image icon(see below) and assigned links to a different page within the same site. The issue is after publish none of the links work when user clicks on any of the icon link. If however I link to a document it opens fine. What might be issue here?Column width resize in modern list
I am using modern list, and it is truly great, very well designed. Anyway, I am using 6~7 columns, and "title" column's width is unnecessarily long, thus i have to scroll right to see entire columns. I've tried resize title column's width and saved it, but when I go back and come again, width sizing is not saved. Is there any way to save this resized width or setting defalut width of columns?
PnP Search Results Handlebars template saves but does not reflect on UI
Hi everyone, I am working with the PnP Search Results web part in SharePoint Online and facing an issue where a custom Handlebars result template saves successfully but does not reflect on the UI. I created a table-style Handlebars template with columns Document, Region, Country, Language, Status and Validation Date, one row per document. Documents are returned correctly and filters based on the same refinable properties work as expected. Debug output using JSONstringify(item) confirms that all refinable values are present. The same if-condition logic using item.RefinableStringXX works in a list-style layout, but in a table layout the template saves without errors and either does not reflect on the UI or renders rows with empty metadata columns. Inline bindings do not render unless wrapped in if blocks and even after fixing this the UI sometimes continues to show the previous layout. Managed property mappings, selected properties, indexing and library reindexing have already been verified. Has anyone experienced this behavior with PnP Search Results templates or knows if this is related to caching, result types overriding templates or a known limitation with table-style Handlebars layouts?
Delete Version History
Hello Team, I'm looking for help with deleting the version history of specific files in SharePoint, but retaining the last 10 versions. I can see that I can manually delete the version history, but this is going to be a rather long task for this particular file, or i can delete them all which we don't want. I've found powershell commands which will go through all files in a document library but nothing for a specific file. Does anyone have anything which will do this? Thank you.
Sharepoint site's customized column become 'Read-Only'
We have a SharePoint Intranet that has been in active use for 14+ months. I have a customized column Expiration Date for News Expiry. Recently, all custom columns added to Site Pages (Page Details) or News pages have become read-only immediately after clicking Save. Key points: - Issue occurs for ALL column types (Date, Date & Time, Text, etc.) - Fields are editable for the first time. - As soon as Save is clicked and page or news came to draft status and the field become read-only. - Happens for both Draft and Published pages. - Editing in Site Pages library Grid view still works. - This behavior started recently without any configuration changes. Has anyone else experienced this?
