Hi Friends, This time I have worked upon a tab control which is still missing from Microsoft sample collection. I personally felt this tab control webpart can be of use in many scenarios. I have used the Rich Text editor for the implementation, where whenever a new tab is added , the text editor automatically gets associated with the tab.

Hi Friends, In today's blog I will be explaining how to create a custom control for Property pane in SharePoint Framework, Many times we need a functionality which we cannot be fulfilled using the OOB (out-of-box) controls. For which we have to go with the customized solution. A very basic need that I encountered and will showcase in this blog is the display of colored text with some sort of icon in the Property Pane.

Hi Friends, We usually have a very simple requirement that many times we don't require the left navigation. There can be multiple reasons around it. In modern SharePoint Communication site, Microsoft has given is out-of-box, where the navigation is at the top. But what if you want to hide the left navigation from the Modern Team site. So here is the solution Go to Site Settings Click on the " Navigation Elements" under Look and Feel. Un-check the " Enable Quick Launch " option Click OK And now you'll notice that the left navigation option is no more. Pros: Left Navigation is removed Now the content area has full width Webparts will act as the full width webpart , and limitation of "Full width section" is not there as the common section is now acting as full width Content can be more expressive Cons: No more navigation on the whole site.

Hi Friends, I have came across a very common requirement where I need to update the page layout of the SharePoint online page (classic page), but I think same can be used to update the page layout to the modern SharePoint site. For this I have written a PowerShell script which will update the pages from a specif page layout to the desired page layout. In this script I have also taken care if you are updating the page layout of the subsite, than also this script will handle the scenario. There are 2 parameters which you need to update Old page layout title New page layout title The updation due to this script will not change the modified by as well as modified date, so the original data is not lost. Please provide your comment if you feel that something can be enhanced in the script or if there is any issue
