  • I recently volunteered to manage my company's SharePoint and your videos have come in handy. I have watched almost all your SharePoint videos. They're easy to understand even for beginners. You make complex concept so easy to grasp. You're a great teacher. Thank you so much sir for making them.

    Hey Dougie. Great Videos. Love the simplicity and efficiency of your "The Hub" sharepoint design. Please keep the great work up! Thanks bro
  • @AdamskiHamski
    Great video! I've been dipping in and out of SharePoint for years and never made much progress (endless lists and poor design). Our company has only 25 users and we've never really known what to do with it. Now I feel we have some direction! Thanks Dougie 👍🏼
  • @cmacdhon
    The best SP knowledge base video on YouTube! Thank you Dougie!!! This is exactly what I have been searching for.
  • To say this was extremely helpful would be a gross understatement. I've been tasked by my company to manage SharePoint and after seeing this I must say my confidence level has shot up! THANK YOU SO MUCH! NEW SUB, OF COURSE! 🤑

    This has been VERY helpful! Thank you! I watched this after already attempting to create a SharePoint site. How can I add a title section to a page that has already been created?

    Greetings Dougie, (slight bow), What a fine fellow you are! I’m trying to upskill in SharePoint and you are the Richard Rost (Microsoft Access) of SharePoint being right up there and I thank you for being so. I now believe the Communication version is what this seventy-year-old needs for a catalogue list of some 230 PowerPoint slides – each slide would be a page – in my kind of Knowledge Base example you use. Bot, but, but would this be searchable to support the links on each page (which will take a person to the required page)? 🙂

    Thanks for your video! One downside of creating a knowledge base in SP that I’ve encountered is the lack of user-friendly search features. For example, if we use enterprise keywords, there’s no way to apply a filter and have records with x AND y show up. The results always show records with x OR y. I wonder if you’ve encountered this issue and if so, how you resolved it.
  • Very useful and timely for me, my questions i how to i get our employees to participate in creating the articles. most simply do not "have time" to do it.
  • @gunzi2269
    Hello Dougie, thank you for your great video! How can I change the color scheme?
  • @user-wg8bp2bf8z
    Hello, great tutorial, found it very helpful! Would I be able to use this as a template for creating sharepoint online pages for my own organization - any copyright issues with using it?
