Hey, I would like only few users to see few pages ,say managers see pages related to them. Other users dont see them. Is there a way. Please help
@@nirmalareddykuchikuntla186 Yes, you need to set unique security on those pages
@@SharePointMaven could please you tell me how can that be done in detail
@@nirmalareddykuchikuntla186 Absolutely. Please schedule a consulting session with me here: sharepointmaven.com/sharepoint-consulting/, we will then schedule a screen share session and I will answer your questions then
I am so glad you posted this, Greg. I thought only owners could edit our beautiful teamsite pages. Immediately went in and updated permissions following your instructions. Thank you once again for this helpful info.
My pleasure, Enid. Yes, Members have lots of power in modern SharePoint!
Very easy instructions on your website, I learned new things!
Great, happy to hear, thanks for being my loyal follower.
Greg you are the man! thanks so much please don't stop making tutorials. your the best around
Thank you, Dean, for being my loyal follower and kind comments!
Great instruction, thank you for this.
On the matter of this topic: what if I am NOT a member of the team, but I DO need to manage the site. Ideally I should not have access to the documents/info even. How would you set the permissions to achieve this scenario?
Thanks, Jeroen, happy to hear you found this helpful. This scenario is not possible. You can't be site editor without being able to access the site. In that case - the only option would be to restrict access to the document library and other assets you should not have access to - but this is too granular and not practical: sharepointmaven.com/6-locations-can-set-security-files-sharepoint-office-365/
Thank you again, Greg! As always, your explanations and demos are the most thorough-yet-concise on the Web. Much appreciated, and now I've solved another problem on my list! :) - Lauri
My pleasure, Lauri! Appreciate your kind feedback and am happy to hear this helped!
Amazing, thank you so much. now how do we remove edit from the navigation bar on the left?
You can't. Only site members will see it
Thank you Greg. Easy and usefull instructions.
My pleasure, appreciate kind words!
Its a great instruction and thank you..
Please upload these kind of videos as much as possible..
You welcome
Great insights! Thank you once again Greg!!!
My pleasure, Paula, thanks for being my loyal follower!
Thank you for this fix. Was pulling my hair out!😀
My pleasure, Glenn!
Great video. Always insightful and relevant Greg
Thank you, Simon, for the comment - thanks for being my loyal follower!
Congratulations for share! I think that Microsoft needs to better permission in sharepoint online. It's horrible. On premise is much better and more simple.
I would not say it is horrible. I think it is a matter of understanding how it works and proper training
Thank you, very helpful contribute
My pleasure
You saved my butt on a recent project
😀 Happy to hear!
Great video. Just what I was looking for, Thanks.
You are welcome, Will!
Users can still edit the navigation bar in the left column. It would also be great to prevent this behavior
Not possible, unless you downgrade them to Contribute level
Thanks alot, it helps alot for my job today 🙂
Happy to hear!
Thanks Greg! How do I restrict them from modifying parent site and library and allow them to edit their own channels?
You would need to alter site permissions
That's good. How to remove "Edit" at the Left side?
You can't
Brilliant tutorial, really helped me. Thanks!
Happy to hear, thanks WIlliam!
Thank you so much for your very helpfull video
My pleasure; happy to hear you found it helpful!
Very informative video. Thank you for sharing. I am trying to do same thing however User get Access denied error while accessing the page to which his associated Group is assigned Read Permission for page library. Can you please suggest if i am missing anything?
Hard for me to suggest without seeing your setup
@@SharePointMaven Thank you for the reply. I observed that Modern pages are accessible with read permission, However for Web Part pages we get access denied error for users who are in the group which has Read Permission.
@@SunilSharma-et5qw OK. Again, hard for me to comment without seeing the setup
Thanks.
Can we only restrict "delete web part" under page edit?
Not sure what you mean
@@SharePointMaven Actually I want user to edit page and can move web parts, add links etc. But can not delete any thing from page.
@@prashantmishra4366 Not possible
@@SharePointMaven Thanks for the response.
When I change the permission from site pages - Manage Access to read from edit , it changes back to edit. So changes not taking effect?? Any suggestions Sir
That is strange, should not be happening
@@SharePointMaven Done everything , still the same. allows me to Change to read but then wont stay, goes back to edit. Giving it a break will try again tomorrow.
@@slex5160 OK
Thank you for the video Greg. I tried your hint and set access permission to read for home.aspx, which works, but now my "+New" button is gone (which I need for the users to create new content), while on your video it stays. The possibility to add pages through the cog on top still works, however. Using a team site and my test user is a Member. What am I missing?
Strange, maybe something has changed in terms of functionality after O recorded this video? Hard for me to say without doing additional testing
What if I have a crowd-sourced document library (250 contributors) and I want everyone to have contribution rights (including rights to update required fields/metadata) but only want “file delete“ rights for the library owner?
For this, you will need to create a custom permission level for contributors: sharepointmaven.com/sharepoint-permission-levels/
How about the "edit" on lower left side? Can it be disabled also?
No, unless you make users Visitors
Thank you, lifesaver.
You are welcome!
Hi Greg, but will the members still be able to edit the documents in the SharePoint .
Goh KH
Yes
Hi Greg, when I change a user to 'view' they can view the main sharepoint site, however cannot accss any pages. They loose access to the pages. I cant figure out why.
Not sure either. Try to change it to Read, not view
Hi
Thanks for your commitment
As you know, we can share documents in the library (sharepoint 2013) with a link. I have two sites (team site 1 and teas site 2). I want to move all document from site1 to site 2. The damage of this action is that the url I shared with people is not going to work anymore.
Is there a solution that keeps the url at the moving? thanks in advance Davai
Thanks for the feedback. I am not aware of a solution that would keep the shared URL still working. If sites are located in the same site collection, Doc ID feature might keep URLs intact, but I suggest you test it out first. sharepointmaven.com/how-to-track-documents-in-sharepoint-using-document-id-feature/
but marry cant upload files and folders to documents now! so how can we solve that?
Yes, she can
Is there a way of doing this on Communication sites as opposes to Team sites?
Yes
I wasn’t able to achieve the same result on a communication site. Hopefully not missing something somewhere or another if the same steps apply 🙈. Or are the steps different?
@@dk365 Steps are the same
Hello everyone, please I’m the owner of a SharePoint site, I want to make members create items but once it has been created I don’t want them to edit it. Please help, thanks
I suggest you post this question on www.reddit.com/r/sharepoint/
Hi SharePoint Maven, by implementing option two, users will still be able to and edit documents in the library right? they only cant edit pages and layouts?
Users should be able to edit documents in other libraries. This video just explains how to stop editing pages
@@SharePointMaven thanks
@@revinot You welcome
How can I grant access to users just open the Homepage in the SharePoint subsite and do not have access to a document library?
You have to create unique permissions on a Doc Library
@@SharePointMaven Is there any way to give access to the homepage other than Site permission because when you give access to the site user can access everything and you have to go to each location on the site and stop inherit permission.
@@javidaslani1230 No other way, that's how it works in terms of security inheritance
@@SharePointMaven Thanks a lot.
When I follow the steps in this vid it also reflects on the teams channel (becomes read only). I stopped inheriting permissions as you stated. Any thoughts? Thanks!
I'm not sure what channels have to do with this. These are unique permissions on the Site Pages.
@@SharePointMaventhe site is based on a teams site/ channel. When I change the permissions for the SharePoint pages it also makes the team only have read access on the teams channel
@@Spta97Vids No, this should not be the case. That's the whole point of unique permissions for a page. Probably something wrong with the setup/steps.
@@SharePointMaventhanks. It could be something with the setup at my org as the steps seem logical and should work. Appreciate the replies and great vid!
Very helpful
Thanks - happy to hear!
