Hello, thank you for sharing your knowledge it's amazing, can you help, just one question about this video at the end my square was cut and it doesn't show the X, the X that takes us to the first page, I think I put the right measurements you say 1200x675 and it doesn't show everything, can you help with this, thanks :)
Great videos, you give inspiration to improve sharepoint intranets. Thank you so much. A question though, I have embedded the figma section but it takes a while to load in Sharepoint (1-2 minutes), leaving a white screen, I've checked the project memory in Figma and it is less than 1%. Is it possible to reduce this loading time ? No clue so far...
How can I make a page to have multiple tags, if that makes sense. Sorry im very new to sharepoint.
Super cool insights and very useful. One bit of a suggestion or impression it that it might be a tad bit too fast. Thank you so much for the video it is great!
Your videos have been fantastic, so much more practical and hands on than the slideshow videos I have been finding, thank you!
Awesome video and excactly what i needed. I do have two questions: 1. Can i use refinableString in the Query template? And how? 2. You showed a couple of Query templates commands like Path, NOT, FileType. But where can i find a list of all i can use?
This is wonderful! I'm learning two things at once! Which I need. Any chance you could show a "how to create website looking SharePoint sites through CSS” targeting an audience that's never used CSS? Another golden opportunity for a 2 in one. For example, I was trying to figure out how to shade or fill in the background of certain web parts with a solid color to make the site match and couldn't. I was trying to make the different buttons of a quick links web part different colors and couldn't because the developer inspect tool doesn't seem to work on those buttons...etc. would LOVE a great video on such things ❤️
Thank you. This is the most useful Sharepoint video I've seen.
Ive tried so many times to ask chatgpt to write a code that will make the title to show on the right side of the image but it cant do it. Can you please send us a copy of your JSON code? It would really be helpful. thanks
Best video of SP UI/UX using OOB
thank you so much! you are the best in sharepoint, im a new subscriber. Please upload more sharepoint design tutorials.
Dam , you are amazing How did you created that navigation display in the page ?? ." Home / Employee Handbook / Attendence" . how to show that
????
Hi! great tutorial. I managed to do something similar for our document's library, and it was working OK, but after changing the home page, the "use input query text" stopped working. I updated the search settings with the new url, went back to the PNP search results , and now on QueryParameters's properties, i dont get q only Mode (not matter how many times i refresh) :( If you can help me please, that would be great! thank you very much
Great video indeed! I was wondering if there is any chance to have relationships between content types on that RAIID list. It is very common to have dependant actions to reduce risk score from a risk. I mean, if I wanted to start an action from a given risk, such action should have a column related to its original risk ID. In the other hand, each risk should have a column ( let’s call it “related actions”) where we can collect of actions IDs sourcing from such risk. Maybe with power automate flows?
Hey! Great question, in this case you could add a lookup column to the list and "look up" the current list, that will allow you to select items in the same list. Then it's exactly as you say, for any given list item, you can essentially tag it with any other items in the list. Hope that helps!
Thanks for this. You've used the gallery view to get rid of the headings etc. What if you need it to have a list view?
Loved the Video, I love the idea of adding emoji's - it looks like you removed the boring microsoft icon from the column heading, how did you do that? Thanks
This channel is massively underrated
Good content as usual. Do you plan to make any updates/add more parts to the site builder master class course?
Hey! Yes, absolutely. I am re-recording the course and it will contain some additional content for sure. Anyone who has purchased the course will have access to the updated version 😁
@@Academy365-Dan wow that’s fantastic news! Do you have a timeline for when you expect it to be published? And can you share some insight about its content 😅 Also, are you working on a new sharepoint course, or will all new material be integrated into the existing one 😊
Thank you so much for your work! I think this also gonna work for my little image gallery for our company. I can put all information in the detail page like copyright, download-button and can make it more adobe stock like. Definitely will checkout your intranet course, in 2026 there will be a whole relaunch. best from germany, you are helping people world wide with your tutorials, awesome work! THX!
Is the cookie notification still an issue with this embedded approach?
Thank you, your content always encourages me to think out of the box, appreciate it 🤩
Thank you for these kind of tutorials, much appriciated
to hide the UI in figma embed code, just add this at the end of your source url.. I tried it and it worked magic.. "&hide-ui=1"
Hello Academy 365! Great video. Do you have a video on creating an internal eCommerce SharePoint Intranet? Thanks!
This really nice thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much for sharing this..Amazing!
Yes, keep making this stuff please!
Great tutorial! Question please: the embedded sections take time to load. Do you have any tips on how to make it load faster? It affects UX especially if there's too many embedded sections in a page. Thanks!
Does this require any kind of figma license?
Amazing!
Thanks for this...your my fav SharePoint tutor on this platform
Thanks for sharing. Do you think we can use this free for commercial purpose?
You are quickly becoming a go to resource. Thank you!
Thanks Don, that means a lot and more than anything I just so glad that this content is useful (sometimes I do wonder! 😉)
@ it is very useful and I have used your ideas to help me grow into my Sharepoint admin/development/Power Solutions role. Thanks again for your content and contrubting to my growth.
Hey Dan @Academy365-Dan, with your call to action/Learn More link within the menu, is that linking to another list with that information in it? I want to create something similar for my teams FAQs, but couldn't understand if that was how you created that part of your list. Thanks, Laura!
Hey Laura, it is taking users to a site page. There is however a list embedded on the page which displays the nutritional information so I suppose it's a mix of two things. Hope this helps! :-D
@@Academy365-Dan Hey Dan, thank you! It did help, I was able to get it to work like yours however after a few days when I went to showcase the FAQs, the two lists stopped stacking vertically. I can't get chatgpt to get the code right again for it to stack vertically and I can't remember now if it is meant to display vertically in the list itself, or just when it embeds. I want to give up now :( any assistance, would be welcome! Thanks, Laura
i have a sharepoint hub with 5 sites. Can I include them on the search configuration?
I have a question, if i want to make a calculation column to make an automaticelly running number based on the criteria [risk] ... [dependency], where i will have ID-Rsk-xxxx, how could i do it?
What this video really showcases is what you can do if you have a little imagination! I figured out that I could use Chat GPT to help me do some custom formatting of a gallery view but I didn't even conceive of something as nice as what you have, let alone achieve it. And you've finished the puzzle with dynamic filtering for me - this is a game changer, thanks so much!
Thanks so much! There is a bug that was introduced in the last couple of days, which is forcing a height on gallery-based list views displayed on site pages but I believe Microsoft are working to resolve this. Just an FYI in case you think you experience this and think you are doing something wrong... you're not ;-)
Spectacular. I was playing around today and noticed some of the updates. You've really inspired me for a new site I'll be making soon. ♥️
That's great to hear! :-D
Hi Dan! I really like your videos and they helped me a lot with coming up new layout ideas and tricks with the list! One thing I can't figure out is that to make my gif move in list gallery view... I'm remaking our Help Center page with video approach instead of only screenshots and texts. I'm trying to make a dynamic filter but I can't get my gif to play in the gallery view. Maybe I'll try a different approach.
Hey! I've not experimented with GIFs in gallery views. I'll take a look and see what I can come up with!
I created and Formatted the view as you have sown in the video. When I insert the view through the "List" Webpart in my page, the tile size does not come as it is there is the view. The description fields get concatenated when I see the list in the page. Not sure whats wrong. The View itself shows the Tile or the Grid as per the parameters i have set in JSON. Any clue what could be wrong?
A bug was introduced in the last couple of days which is driving this unwanted sizing. It's not just you, many many people are affected. I believe it is being worked on, so keep the faith... it'snot you... it's them!

Many many thanks. This is soooo wonderful. I was looking for this type search within the SharePoint.
This is an interesting approach to creating custom 'web parts' in SharePoint Online! However, I would advise against implementing it on a production site. Using the embed option in SharePoint Online, especially in the modern experience, has some significant drawbacks. Firstly, it lacks responsiveness, which can affect the user experience across different devices. Additionally, embedding external content can introduce security risks, as it may open connections to external sources. Since the SharePoint Online session operates under the current user's permissions, this approach could potentially expose sensitive information if not managed carefully. Lastly, embedding external content can negatively impact page performance. It can increase load times, causing delays or gaps on the page as the embedded content loads. For production environments, it's generally safer and more efficient to explore custom SPFx web parts or other solutions better suited to SharePoint's modern experience. Thanks for sharing this technique though-it's a great concept for specific use cases!
Following your video. When I got to add ItemOwner it did not show me the same choices as your screen showed. I was in the SharePoint Admin center rather than the local SharePoint site. But just so you know, it did not show me the same choices.I cannot "select from column type" I tried going in through the local SharePoint site. This is what drives me crazy. SharePoint does NOT show the same screens as you or others doing these videos show. I don't know if SharePoint has been changing on the fly, but it is not the same screens. sigh. what a POS product...I am a Global Admin so I do have rights to make all changes.I think I am going to give up on Content Types. It's just a frustrating poorly designed feature. Folders,and search work just fine.
Suggestions for someone that just inherited our SharePoint site and is not an IT person or programmer. I have no idea where or how to begin.
Hey Ben! Love your work :) I was wondering if you have done similar with dependencies/cascading? I.e. If 'People' is chosen in column 'A', then show 'Employee of Choice', 'High Performing Culture' etc in column 'B'. If 'Planet' is chosen in Column 'A', show 'Capacity for Growth', 'Safe and Secure' etc in column 'B'
It would be great to have the same but for libraries :)
really good man
Your content is amazing! One question, how did you customize the lookup column clickable like the vendor column on your asset track list?
