SharePoint List Rating Settings missing in List Settings

Question

SharePoint Online List Rating Settings missing in List Settings

Answer 1

Hi João,

Are you using modern team site or communication site?

Rating settings are available under General Settings in List/Library settings in modern Team site. For Communication site, please note the Rating settings option is not available.

If you are indeed using communication site, I’ll suggest you vote for this feature in SharePoint UserVoice. UserVoice is the best way to give the feedback to Product Group.

Add Rating Settings to Document Libraries

Modern Page Ratings

If you are using team site and the Ratings setting option is missing in List Settings, please provide the following information to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Please check with another member or site owner to confirm if they can see this rating setting option in List Settings.
2. Do you see Rating settings under Library Settings?
3. Please check the list settings of another list in another team site to confirm.
4. Please provide the screenshot of list setting page.

Thanks,

Neha

Answer 2

Hi Armen,

Team site is created when you want to collaborate with other members of your team or with others on a specific project. With a team site, typically all or most members can contribute content to the site. While a communication site is used to broadcast information out to a broad audience. With a communication site, typically only a small set of members contribute content that is consumed by a much larger audience.

How does this help the user IDENTIFY the type of site he's already using which is what he's asking?
