It indicates that this is a private group and we’re following it. If we go back to the homepage, we’ll find some useful information on the upper right side. When we go to the Documents, the menu changes. For the homepage, it has menu items like Page details, Analytics, and Edit, which we can also modify. The main thing to notice here is that each app has a page or screen and a menu bar associated with it. We can access any program in there, but only frequently used applications are displayed on our desktop or Start menu. It’s quite similar to the Program files on your computer. This Site contents is useful because if we create an app and we don’t want to display it on the menu bar, we can just put it inside this. We have three other document libraries – one for form templates, one for site assets, and one for style library. In this example, we have a document library called Documents that we can also see in our menu bar. The Site contents displays all our files, pages, and apps in one place. Those can be separate apps in this menu.Īdditionally, we have the Shared with us, Notebook, and Pages.Īnything we delete will end up in the Recycle bin. For example, we can create a document library for photos and another one for contracts. In SharePoint, we’re also able to create multiple apps of the same type. However, since this is just an example that we recently created, we won’t see anything yet until we add things later on.Īgain, these are just separately created apps. SharePoint sites also have a standard document library app called Documents. It allows users to track different emails or communications between people. This is another app that we can have as part of our website. We have one page that has four separate widgets.Ī standard site also has Conversations. We can consider these as different widgets. It contains a News web part, Quick links, Documents, an Activity web part, and many more. We are currently in the homepage, which is merely a collection of different web parts. The first app that any site has is a homepage. This allows us to navigate between the different apps that our site has. The next thing that we’ll go through is the menu. Navigating Through The SharePoint Site Menu Let’s now go back to the site that we created. This consolidates all of our files between the different sites. The same thing goes for our files as well. They’d be able to see the news from both of those sites in one place, which makes things very convenient. In an instance, for the marketing personnel, they would be part of a marketing site and the company website. This allows users to see news from different sites on one page. We can also go to My News by clicking the third icon.Įvery single site has a news app. In this example, I’m following two sites. In an organization, we usually have sites for different purposes. If we click the second icon, we’ll see the sites that we frequently visit and the sites that we follow. This is where we can see the list of all our sites. If we click the first icon, we’ll go to our SharePoint start page.
Instead, they’re between all of our sites. Therefore, they’re not for one particular site. This contains actions that are site agnostic. However, what we’ll be focusing on in this tutorial are the things on the leftmost side. This contains some of the modifications that we can do in SharePoint settings. We’ll see the settings in this part as well. On the upper right part, we can see our account. We can do custom searches with it as well, which is very convenient. Understanding The Layout Of A SharePoint SiteĪt the topmost part is the search bar where we can search for resources, files, lists, and other things on the site.
We’ll go through the entire menu and layout before we start doing anything. Here’s a sample SharePoint site that I’ve previously created. In this tutorial, we’ll go through the menu and some of the basic things that we can see in the layout of a Microsoft SharePoint site.
