SharePoint Online Modern QuickLinks different colors CSS?

$
0
0

Is there anyway via CSS to change the colors per individual QuickLink web part in SharePoint Online Modern site?

By default these are SharePoint Blue however using CSS on this element you can change the color: .content_6c75a884

I was wondering if its possible to somehow change the background color on each based on the text of the tile link.

Ie, if Tile1=Home then set background-color: #ffcc00 etc.


Making a sharepoint calendar out of Outlook address book calendar

So I have something set up where events/appointments can be made by emailing a certain email address. When you email the address it automatically adds the appointment to the calendar associated with the email address. This calendar can be viewed on outlook by adding through address book or directory.

What i want to do is make it so that all the events added onto that email address can be viewed through a sharepoint calendar, is this possible? I've been looking online for ages and cant seem to find a solution to this problem.

If anybody can help, I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

why i got different theme colors for the root site compared to the sub-site. and is there a way to standardize the colors

$

I have created a classic team site collection inside my sharepoint online tenant, and i create a classic team sub-site inside it. but i have noted that the sub-site and the root-site have different themes colors inside the new/modern experience. As follow:-

1) For example inside the Root site, i got the built-in colors for the buttons and links in Yellow-Gold color:-

2) While on the sub-site i got these in blue color, as follow-

So i have these 2 questions about these issues:-

1. when i created the site collection (actually this is the root site collection which was already created for us) and the sub-site, i were not asked which color i want to use? so how did sharepoint decide which color to use for each site? or these colors are been chosen randomly?

2. is there a way to standardized these colors for the root site and the sub-site? also for any additional site collections and sub-sites?

Thanks

Delete column headers in an individual web part

I want to delete the headers from a list in a web part that uses the Boxed style. I used the code set out in this advice (https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/85735/how-can-i-get-rid-of-the-columns-header-when-the-style-boxed-was-selected) which worked, but it removed the headers from all the lists on the page, not just the one web part I require. How do I direct the command to apply only to a nominated web part? 

Thanks

Switching Sharepoint Form view based on list field value

Hi, I would like to be able to open different screens of my custom form based on a field value in the list item being edited. Is this possible?

Adding a feedback form inside our SharePoint modern page

$

I am working on a SharePoint online classic team site representing our Finance department, and I added a new modern site page which I set it as the home page for the site.

Now I want to add the following functionalities to my modern site page:-

  1. Inside the modern page, to add 2 fields which can allow users to submit feedback to our Finance dept's managers.
  2. The 2 fields will be “Name” + “Feedback”.
  3. And once submitted an email will be sent to the Finance Dept managers, and the item will be stored inside a list.

As follow:-

 

Now inside the built-in modern web parts offered by SharePoint, I cannot find any web part which can help me in achieving this requirement. So I am thinking of implementing these steps:-

  1. Create a custom list with 2 fields.
  2. Create a new classic page, add a script editor web part. and inside the script editor to add 2 html fields and write a javascript code which integrate with the custom list Apis.
  3. So the user can enter the name +comment >> click on submit button>> then his feedback will be saved inside the custom list using list Apis + an email will be sent.
  4. Finally I will embed the classic page inside the modern page using the Embed modern web part.

Now on paper my approach should work well…. But I am not sure if there is a more SharePoint-oriented approach? Or approach that is offered by SharePoint out of the box which can allow me to have a feedback form inside my modern page as stated in my above points ?

Hi,

I have created a feedback button on our Intranet. Users can click on the button and enter feedback for that page which will go to the Page Owner and user in an email ( using Sharepoint Designer workflow ). It works ok till the user tries to copy->paste a screenshot in the rich text box. Email arrives but the screenshot image doesnt load. cannot even save it to be able to open it. It fails.

I have checked that there are no outlook settings blocking it. I have even tried rich text box and enhanced rich text box for the field type and still no luck. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi,

Although I am a site collection administrator, when I try to delete uncompleted survey items I get the error. 

Item cannot be deleted while on hold.

I had created lot of test entries while creating the survey, and had to 'save & close' without completion. Is there a way to clean these uncompleted entries.

This issue does not come for the Survey 'Completed' entries.

SP.Web.CreateAnonymousLinkWithExpiration cannot generate a read only link

$

Hi,

I have been experimenting with the above command, running it from a Sharepoint App and its working perfectly in generating the correct link to the document. 

However...

It has a parameter called "isEditLink" and it does not matter if the value provided is either true or false, the link generated allows the target document to be edited.

I tried passing the value as a string (ie "true", "false") and also tried passing 0 or 1 instead but this generated an error saying "Cannot convert a primitive value to the expected type 'Edm.Boolean'. See the inner exception for more details.

My code is as follows:

function getTimedGuestAccessLink(itemurl, hours, isEditable, getTimedGuestAccessLink_success, getTimedGuestAccessLink_fail) {

    UpdateFormDigest(_spPageContextInfo.webServerRelativeUrl, _spFormDigestRefreshInterval);

    // presume no expiry date
    var url = _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/SP.Web.CreateAnonymousLink";

    var expire = moment().add(hours, 'h').format();

    var data = {};

    data.url = itemurl;
    data.isEditLink = isEditable;

    // only include expire time if one has been set and change the method
    if (hours > 0) {
        data.expirationString = expire;
        url = _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + "/_api/SP.Web.CreateAnonymousLinkWithExpiration";
    }

    $.ajax(
    {
        'url': url,
        'method': 'POST',
        'data': JSON.stringify(data),
        headers: {
            'accept': 'application/json;odata=verbose',
            'content-type': 'application/json;odata=verbose',
            'X-RequestDigest': $('#__REQUESTDIGEST').val()
        },
        success: getTimedGuestAccessLink_success,
        error: getTimedGuestAccessLink_fail,
    }
    );
}

And advice would be appreciated.

Ex.

Is there an Enterprise wiki site collection template which work on the new experience (modern interface)

$
0
0

On each project i worked on i always add an Enterprise wiki site collection, as it is a very powerful template to build an intranet knowledge base for our customers.

and i do these main steps on the enterprise wiki site collection:-

1) i add some metadata site columns to the enterprise wiki page layout and content type. so users can link the wiki page to multiple metadata columns (which are Type, Security & customer in my case).

2) using sharepoint designer, i define a cusotm page layout which contain these custom metadata columns. the wiki pages' page layout will be as follow:-

3) i enable the metadata navigation for the wiki page library, so users can filter and search the wiki pages using the metadata columns, as follow:-

I did this inside sharepoint online, on-premises 2013 & on-premises 2016. but one drawback i am currently facing inside my sharepoint online, is that the Enterprise wiki site collection does not have Modern/New experience. Where all the above features (providing custom page layout, enable metadata navigation/filtering and viewing the wiki page itself) which I have implemented will be rendered in the classic experience.

so can anyone advice on these 2 points:-

1. Can we enable the New/Modern experience for our Enterprise wiki site collection and its features? so i can view, edit & search the wiki pages using the New/Modern experience ?

2. If the answer to my first question is No. Then are there other templates which i can use to build an enterprise wiki site collection (with similar functionalists to my current site collections) which have modern/New experience?

Thank

Errors using "Current Item" in 2013 list workflow in SharePoint Online

$
0
0

I am creating a 2013 Workflow using SharePoint Designer on a list in SharePoint Online.

It only has one action, to send an email with a link to the list item.

In the email action body, I am getting the ID of the "Current Item".  When I start the workflow, it goes into the "Started" internal status and stays there.  When I view the workflow status, I click the "i" next to Internal Status and it says:

Retrying last request. Next attempt scheduled after 10/24/2018 10:54 AM.

Details of last request: HTTP NotFound to https://mydomain.sharepoint.com/sites/TheSite/_api/web/lists(guid'c9bf3461-2a28-4fc9-a49f-24a361e066dd')/Items(3)?%24select=ID%2CID

Correlation Id: eafd62eb-b97c-e9ae-873a-7b34205201c7 Instance Id: 1a739187-4c59-4a67-85a2-cce7e656e09e

Item does not exist. It may have been deleted by another user.

The item does exist. The list does have Content Approval enabled, and the item is Pending. But that should not matter.

I also tried referencing Absolute Encoded URL instead of ID and it does the same thing.

Any ideas about why I cannot reference data in the current item in my workflow?
