Web Part Properties

NAME
If you want to give a name to your Quick Links list, here is the place where you can define it.

LIST URL
In this field, you need to paste the list URL that you copied when you finished creating the list.

It is recommended that you use relative paths in this field. So instead of using a URL like https://company.sharepoint.com/sites/Home/Lists/Links you should use something like /sites/Home/Lists/Links. This will ensure that the web part will work regardless of how you’re accessing the site.

For some versions of SharePoint, you may get the following error: Object doesn't support property or method 'getList'. This error can be fixed by adding a question mark followed by the name of the list at the end of the URL. e.g. …/Lists/Links/” would become “…/Lists/Links/?Links List

CACHING

No Caching
There is no caching, this options allows web part to update at every page load.

Page Caching
Stores the web part HTML directly onto the page. Updates only when web part is updated and page is checked out (if necessary). This means when the custom forms are submited.
User targeting does not work as a result of this.

Local Storage Caching
Stores the web part HTML into the browser's local storage and updates every 30 minutes.


LANGUAGE
The web part is available in more than one language. You can choose here which one do you prefer to use.

WEB PART ERRORS
Every time the web part doesn't connect with any list or is unsuccessful connecting with a list, it shows this error message: ":( oops, something went wrong".

You can, however, choose when you want the message to appear. If you want it to appear only in edit mode, if you don't want it to appear at all, or if you want the message to always appear regardless the view you are at the moment. By default, these messages only appear in edit mode.
