Keep Your SharePoint Content Fresh with the AI-Powered FAQs Web Part

By Nov 21, 2025 Copilot, Web Parts 0 Comments

After exploring the Copilot page agent in my previous post, today I want to bring to your attention another feature that will keep your SharePoint content fresh and always updated: the FAQs web part. Imagine you’re a product manager preparing for a major product launch. You need to ensure everyone in the organization—from sales to support—has the latest details: timelines, pricing, key features, and FAQs.

Traditionally, you might keep all this information in a PowerPoint deck and email it around. While that works, it’s not the most efficient way to share updates. Decks get outdated quickly, and finding answers becomes a challenge. SharePoint’s AI-powered FAQs web part solves this by keeping your content fresh and easy to find—without changing your existing process. Let’s see what this web part can do for you.

Why the New SharePoint Page Agent Might Just Save Your Intranet

By Nov 19, 2025 Agents, Copilot, Pages 0 Comments

Let’s be honest: most intranets start strong and then… well, they fade. The launch is exciting, pages look fresh, everyone’s onboard. Fast forward a few months and suddenly you’ve got outdated content, broken links, and a homepage that feels like a time capsule. Adoption drops, and the intranet becomes that dusty corner nobody visits.

Why does this happen?
Because keeping content fresh is hard. People don’t have time to jump into SharePoint, create pages, format them nicely, and publish updates. It’s not that they don’t care—it’s that the workflow is broken.

What’s new for SharePoint – October 2025

By Nov 3, 2025 What's new 0 Comments

I can’t remember a month this quiet for SharePoint in recent memory. Still, don’t let the calm fool you—there are updates that will improve the way you work, whether you’re an end user or an administrator. My top highlight this month is the new Admin view, which gives administrators the ability to view and manage all SharePoint agents directly from the Admin Center.

The second standout is the updated document library experience. I have mixed feelings about this one. While I usually welcome UX improvements, the decision to swap the positions of the view selector and the New/Upload button feels counterintuitive, and I’m still trying to understand the logic behind it.

Beyond these, there are more than 10 new announcements waiting for you in the full post, from OneDrive enhancements for departing employees to Copilot integrations and advanced management insights. Dive in to explore what’s new and what’s next for SharePoint and related technologies.

How to Embed a Microsoft Teams Town Hall in a SharePoint Page (and why you should)

By Oct 7, 2025 Pages 0 Comments

Town halls are where leadership aligns the organization and answers questions at scale. Making the event visible on your intranet gives employees one more entry point to attend live, review the agenda and resources, and watch the recording later—all without hunting for the invite.

Since Microsoft added embed support for Teams Town Hall, organizers can copy an embed code from the Microsoft Teams scheduling window to add it directly in SharePoint. Attendees get the same engagement features (Q&A, captions, reactions) in the embedded player, with access controlled by the event’s permissions.

What’s new for SharePoint – September 2025

By Oct 1, 2025 What's new 0 Comments

September was an exciting month for SharePoint and the Microsoft 365 ecosystem, bringing updates that continue to push collaboration and content management forward. The highlight of the month is Knowledge Agent in SharePoint—a game-changing feature that combines intelligent content curation, automated site maintenance, and natural-language workflow creation, all within the SharePoint experience. This innovation aims to make knowledge management smarter and more proactive than ever.

Another major update worth celebrating is the story around SPFx Field Customizers. Microsoft listened to community feedback, and advanced customizations for Microsoft Lists are here to stay. These capabilities complement column formatting, giving developers and power users more flexibility to deliver tailored experiences where JSON formatting options fall short.

This post explores these highlights and other key updates from September, so you can stay ahead and make the most of what’s new in SharePoint and related technologies.

SharePoint Is Now AI Ready: Introducing the Knowledge Agent

By Sep 18, 2025 Agents 0 Comments

Microsoft is transforming SharePoint into the foundation for AI‑powered collaboration. Over the past year, we’ve seen Copilot for Microsoft 365, and Agents redefine how organizations create, manage, and govern information. Now, with the introduction of Knowledge Agent, SharePoint takes a major step forward: making your content AI‑ready by default.

Why is this important? Because AI thrives on structured, fresh, and discoverable content. If your intranet is full with outdated pages and inconsistent metadata on files, Copilot can’t deliver its full potential. Knowledge Agent addresses this by combining intelligent content curation, automated site maintenance, and natural‑language workflow creation, all inside SharePoint.

It’s all about making SharePoint smarter and more helpful without you having to think about it.

How to Preview SharePoint Site Pages Without Opening Them

By Jul 10, 2025 Pages 0 Comments

Let’s be honest – managing a Site Pages library with hundreds of pages is a real pain. You know the drill: click, wait, scroll, realize it’s the wrong page, go back, repeat.

I’ve been there, and I’m sure you have too. Opening several pages just to find the right one is time-consuming and frankly, pretty frustrating. There’s actually a way to preview pages directly in the library without ever leaving it.

This little trick could save you hours of hunting through pages, and honestly, it’s one of those “why didn’t I think of this sooner” moments.
