UL Migration to SharePoint 365

IT migrated the UL SharePoint to SharePoint 365 in the cloud.  Migration started 10/9/2019 and was completed on 10/10/2019. The old SharePoint site will be read-only for 14 days.  After 14 days the old site will be locked.

SharePoint Web Part Errors … updated

Certain web parts on the UL SharePoint are displaying a Web Part Error.  Most affected by this issue are the portions of UL SharePoint that contains information in HTML format.

I’ve opened a Footprints ticket and will keep you posted on details as they develop.  Files and documents are still accessible on SharePoint but they are a little tricky to find.  Let me know if there is a document library or file you need to access and I’ll help you get to it. Unfortunately and information on SharePoint on a web page or HTML is not available at this time.

Update 8/2/2016 12:53 pm
The SharePoint issue has been resolved or self-resolved.  All content is accessible.

In the meantime, if discover you need access to and/or read write/permissions to a specific site, please submit a Footprints ticket at: https://footprints.uakron.edu/libsupport/.

New SharePoint site!

If you have the chance, please try out the new SharePoint site located here.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I’m particularly interested in how well (or not so well) everyone is able to find the content they normally interact with and how intuitive the interface is. You can email me here.

Thanks
