Modern SharePoint: Collapsible Sections No Longer Allows Editing Section Title

Good Afternoon!

Since yesterday, (December 2nd, 2021), an issue had begun with the Collapsible Sections that is impacting the two SharePoint sites I am responsible for.

The issue summarized:

When creating a section and enabling the Collapsible section, the Section Title cannot be edited - the text entry field that should populate does not
All existing sections that were already moved over to Collapsible sections still have their title but cannot be edited.

It appears like this:

It still allows to add web parts within the section, but not having access to a title or label option compromises display and search functionality.

I have done basic troubleshooting and tried on multiple browsers to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas or have heard of similar reports?

Be Safe,

Mal

I have the exact same issue. Started today (December 3) around 2:00-3:00pm EST. I was able to create and edit the collapsible sections earlier today. Now I have the exact experience described above.

Dear Maleck and Tracy,

Welcome to the forum here.

I do a test in SharePoint Online in our environment and it seems that I can't reproduce the issue now. May I know whether the issue disappeared in your environments now?

If you create a new page, what's the result?

Thanks for your effort and time.

Good Morning, and thank you for your reply!

I tried the following and the issue had still occurred:

Edited an existing page > Attempted to Edit an existing Collapsible Section
Edited an existing page > Created a new section, making it collapsible
Created a new page with blank template > Created a new section, making it collapsible

Unfortunately the same issue continues to impact both SharePoint sites. That Title text entry field that you see in your image is still missing.

Same issue here, no new titles offered and existing titles can not be edited!

Bad bug!

Need this resolved quickly, am in the middle of an intranet update round.

Could not have come on a worse moment.

Hope Microsoft takes this issue very serious, people are counting on these features.

I'm seeing the exact same issue. On new pages I can't edit the collapsible section title and it doesn't appear to show the title area. Existing pages with a collapsible section show the title but it can't be edited. I noticed the issue today (6 December 2021) but a colleague noticed it on 2 December 2021.

Hopefully Microsoft can fix ASAP.

I am having the same issue. I thought I was going crazy, so I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one.

Can we be notified when this is fixed?

Cliff, this is not resolved on my end. I cannot edit titles on existing sections, and I cannot add title to new collapsible sections. I'm in the middle of building out some enterprise-wide pages, so I'd appreciate an update as soon as possible. Thanks!

Hi there,

Has anyone been able to resolve this issue?

I am having the same issue now, I'm unable to create or edit the Section Title in the Collapsible section.

Thanks,
