Adding items to a Custom List app 'fails silently'

Question

From the Site Contents directory in SharePoint, I created a Custom List via New > App > Custom List.

I added 12 entries and everything worked as expected, the responses were visible in the list.

When trying to add subsequent entries (when clicking Save on the new entry form accessed by clicking the + icon), the new entries did not appear in the list (even when refreshing the page).

It is like the form is 'silently failing' and I have no idea why.

It is a straight forward set up and worked for the first 12 entries, so I don't know why it stopped working all of a sudden.

For context, I have renamed the mandatory Title field to Organisation Name (because i have no need for a Title field in my form), so i don't know if that causes any problems?

Answer 1

The issue was that I had inadvertently saved the All Items view when a filter was on.

The 'filter icon' was not next to the column name, however, so I didn't realise it.

The solution was to go into List Settings > Views > All Items and choose the Show all items in this view option.

Then all items that I had previously added were shown.
