How to get a custom Site Page content type to show in the Site Pages Library New dropdown?
I have created a new Site Pages content type from the SharePoint Admin Center Content Type hub. The parent content type is Site Pages. When I add the content type to the Site Pages library on a site, the new content type does not appear in the New dropdown. I have verified the new Content Type shows in the Site Pages Library Settings: I have also confirmed the new button order: How do I get the new Site Pages Content Type to show in the New dropdown of Site Pages Library?Intermittent failures when creating new libraries in modern SharePoint
Hi everyone, I’m seeing an issue in our modern SharePoint Online site collection where creating new document libraries has started failing. This site has worked normally for years, but over the past week, most library creation attempts haven't worked. 1) The page briefly flashes or glitches during the creation process. and 2) A non‑ending spinning wheel when I hit "create" or 3) Creation attempts return “Something's not right.” error page. The failures happen across all subsites, in multiple browsers, and I’m a Site Collection Administrator. No permission changes were made recently. Has anyone seen similar intermittent library creation failures in a modern site collection, or know what might cause this kind of inconsistent behavior? Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

Document libraries added programmatically as tabs to Shared Channels are not visible
With the recent Teams UX updates, any document libraries added programmatically to Shared Channels no longer appear in the Teams interface even though they do show up when queried through PowerShell. Following the guidance in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/teams-configuring-builtin-tabs%22as well as the approaches I outlined in my blog post https://reshmeeauckloo.com/posts/powershell-teams-add-documentlibrary-as-tab/%22https://reshmeeauckloo.com/posts/powershell-teams-add-documentlibrary-as-tab/%22 using Microsoft Graph or PnP PowerShell, the tabs still fail to surface in the new Teams experience. The behaviour is inconsistent: The same tab‑creation methods work perfectly in standard channels. They also work for users who haven’t yet received the new Teams UX. And if the document libraries are added manually, they appear as expected in shared channels. At the moment, I’m trying to determine whether there is a supported way to add document library tabs to shared channels programmatically so that they remain visible in the new Teams interface. Any insights or confirmed workarounds would be appreciated.

Sharepoint logo not changing
Hey everyone, Like many other users, I can't seem to change the logo on my SPO site. I created this site via Team -> go to Sharepoint site. I've tried the many solutions: change the look change logo in site information replaced logo file with __siteIcon__.png in site assets, gets automatically re-written by system I get this error when I try to upload the picture via site information. Does anyone recognize how to adjust this setting? Thanks!Classic SharePoint features appearing on a Modern Site
I have a modern SharePoint site, with a modern list that has never been associated with classic SharePoint features. But today, two users have experienced intermittent instances of the list appearing in the classic interface. They have not accessed this site before now so I do not believe there should be a cache issue. Does anyone know why this is happening and how it's possible when this site has no association with Classic features? They are using the same browser, same permissions across the site but sometimes the list opens in Classic mode, sometimes it opens in Modern. It also is happening in incognito mode. They are unable to use the site while in Classic Interface at all - the people pickers deny them access ("Error: Sorry, you do not have permission to query for users" and they cannot edit anything because of this error.
SharePoint 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!
Set Default Page Template SharePoint Online?
Hello, I have been running into difficulty setting my page template as the default page template. In tutorial videos I watch, there seems to be an option to do this: However, on my site, there is no option like this. Has this feature been removed, or how might I access this? Thanks! (See below, no 3 dots for options, on the following page, only drop down option is to create a private draft). I am a site owner, if that helps with troubleshooting.
Multiple Page Libraries on site
Hi everyone I have a strange issue that I haven't come across before. A customer has got an old subsite on SharePoint Online that was created with the STS#0 template (classic Team Site with no group) and they want to modernise their old wiki pages. This should have been straightforward as I was planning on using the https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/dev/transform/modernize-userinterface-site-pages-powershell. However, on this site they have two page libraries - the standard Site Pages library and then what looks like a custom page library (I've blanked out the name of the custom library as it contains the company name): All of the pages they want to modernize are in the custom library but the issue with this is that the only content type available is Wiki Page: This means that although the PnP PowerShell runs successfully against pages in this library, the new versions don't actually appear in the library. I assume this is because the modern Site Page content type isn't available in the library. I was under the impression that a site could only have one page library so I'm not sure how this site has the two. On a more urgent note I need to work out the best way of modernizing these pages. Currently the only way I can see is using Power Automate to copy the pages to the Site Pages library and then convert them there. The only issue with that is that there are links within the pages to other pages so I'd need to go through them and fix these once they've been moved. here are over 300 pages so I don't really want to do this. Does anyone have any ideas on the best way forward with this. Also, if you know how there are multiple page libraries I'd be keen to hear it as I haven't come across this before. Thanks in advance for your help.
External guest users now see Classic view in document libraries (was Modern)
We are seeing a recent change in behaviour (last ~1–2 weeks) affecting external/guest users only. Context: Sites are created from an approved SharePoint Communication Site template Tenant and site are configured for Modern (New) experience Document libraries were previously rendering in Modern view for external guests Internal users still see Modern view as expected Current behaviour: External/guest users now consistently see document libraries rendering in Classic view The library shows “Exit classic experience”, but selecting it does not switch the library to Modern This occurs even when: Accessing via the site home page Navigating via the site menu Using a newly created site from the same template Testing in InPrivate/Incognito Library settings are explicitly set to Default experience = New experience SharePoint Admin Centre is set to New experience (no Classic defaults enabled) Important observations: This behaviour did not occur during earlier testing using the same template and permissions No template changes have been made Reproduces across multiple sites Reproduces only for guest users (internal users unaffected) The issue persists even after refreshing, changing views, or setting the library experience explicitly to Modern Question Has there been a recent change or regression in how SharePoint Online renders document libraries for guest users, particularly when accessing libraries on Communication Sites created from templates? Specifically: Are there known issues where guest sessions are forced into Classic rendering despite Modern being configured at the tenant, site, and library level? Are there any recent changes (late 2025 / early 2026) affecting guest rendering or Classic fallback behaviour? Any guidance or confirmation would be appreciated, as this represents a change from previously working behaviour and impacts external user experience.
