Integrating Loop status project components into a table in the same workspace - is it possible?

Question

I am using loop for managing a number of projects. So have set up a workspace, with a blank page with a summary table that I would like to link status updates from each project subpage in the workspace. Using your project template, I make the status update a component. Can I then insert that component link into a cell in the summary table on the other workspace page and have it format as the label, rather than a hyperlink?

As per checking the shared information that you wish to add/insert the component link into a cell in the summary table on the other workspace page and have it formatted as a label, instead of a hyperlink. Just to set your expectation that we can only do basic troubleshooting steps for Microsoft 365 Office programs, OneDrive, and Outlook. Allow me to ask you some questions for me to better understand your issue.

• May I know what version and edition of Office installed in your computer?
  • You can open any Office apps
  • Go to File > Accounts - on the right side you can see Product Information

Yes, it is possible to integrate Loop status project components into a table in the same workspace. You can insert the component link into a cell in the summary table on the other workspace page and format it as a label.

To do this, follow these steps:

1. Open the workspace where you want to insert the status updates into a table.
2. Create a new page and insert a table.
3. In the table, create a column for each project subpage that you want to link to.
4. In each cell of the table, click on the "Insert" button and select "Component".
5. Select the status update component from the list of available components.
6. Repeat steps 4-5 for each cell in the table.
7. Once you have inserted all the components, you can format them as labels by selecting the cell and clicking on the "Format" button.
8. In the "Format" pane, select "Label" from the dropdown menu.

This will display the status update as a label in the table cell, rather than a hyperlink.

Let us know the result and we will get back to you as soon as we can. We may recommend other troubleshooting steps once we have received your answers to the above questions.

Hi Vince, I have a subscription product Microsoft 365 Apps for Enterprise.

I created a new page, and inserted a table. Then set up columns. HOwever when I right click to go to the insert icon and go to insert it only allows me to insert a row or column. I also get this message in a popup whis seems odd.

Many thanks for your assistance.

As per checking the screenshot, it seems that the feature or shortcut is not working with the browser that you are using.

Kindly try to use another browser such as Microsoft Edge, to see if that pop up message will disappear.

If this doesn't work still, I would suggest to post your issue in Microsoft Q & A. As our experts gathered here for advance technical troubleshooting and they can provide you further troubleshooting with your loop issue. Questions - Microsoft Q&A
