/search/Pages/results.aspx vs. /search/results.aspx in SharePoint On-line - search

On my production tenant, the results page is in:
/search/Pages/results.aspx
But on my DEV tenant it is in /search/results.aspx and there is no Pages library.
Is there a way I can set my DEV tenant to have the same settings as production tenant?
Thanks

Show an Page from Another Tenant SharePoint Online in Teams. I want to use custom iFrame. Is it possible by authenticating the user

I am currently working on an SPFX Teams webpart and show custom SharePoint online document library views in Teams. I have created an iframe in webpart and able to show this.
However when the app is deployed in other domain Tenent the iframe does not loads. The users from other domain tenant as added as guest users in SharePoint. Is there a way to authenticate them. iT is a Modern SharePoint site so cannot edit Master Page.
Could you please check that you have granted permissions to the guest users in your tenant? Check this documenataion for further information.

Permissions for Azure app using Microsoft Graph to read SharePoint Online

This seems like a simple question but I'm struggling to find an answer anywhere. Help! ;-)
I'm trying to use Microsoft Graph to read SharePoint lists/libraries in a SharePoint site, however this is just for one site (for our department) amongst many on our SharePoint online. I've registered an Azure AD app (with secret etc...) and requested 'application' permissions for the Microsoft Graph ('Create, edit, and delete items and lists in all site collections') and its saying 'admin consent required' is 'yes' and its currently flagged as 'not granted for *****'.
My boss is now asking - with a worried tone ;-)
will this mean the app can basically read/write/delete on all sites in
the organisations SharePoint (not just our site) if our IT department
'consent'?
I said I don't know actually... I guess I'm not entirely clear on which permissions this is for, is it just to call the Microsoft Graph API or is it for this app to access SharePoint itself? I've searched for answers to this but I'm struggling to find anywhere that says anything about giving your app permissions in SharePoint, it all seems to be about getting permissions for the Microsoft Graph to access SharePoint.
I just want the app to have permissions to read/write lists/files in this one SharePoint site, not any others (we have loads of sites for other departments). I feel like we should be adding permissions for this app (its service principal?) somewhere on the SharePoint site we want to access, but what permissions do I need to setup and where so this app can only access this one site?
Azure AD app registration now allows for granular access to SharePoint site collection, there is a new option Sites.Selected under Azure AD App Registration - Request API Permissions - refer to https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/blogs/controlling-app-access-on-specific-sharepoint-site-collections/
Unfortunately, this feature is still missing. It is not possible to limit the permissions to only one SharePoint site. It's either access to all SharePoint sites in the organisation or none. Check out the user vote for more information: here. Microsoft is still working on providing a way to limit the access to specific resources.

company branding doesn't work for password page in Azure Portal

I've created company branding from the Azure portal for my application.
This is working as expected for the first page i.e, the username page. When I click on next for the password page, the custom branding disappears and default Microsoft background appears.
I want the branding to be continued for the password page also so that there would be consistency.
You probably try to sign in with a Microsoft Account instead of your Azure Active Directory account. If you sign in with a "native" Azure Active Directory account you will continue see your company branded page.
You can customize your Azure AD sign-in pages, which appear when users sign in to your organization's tenant-specific apps, such as https://outlook.com/contoso.com, or when passing a domain variable, such as https://passwordreset.microsoftonline.com/?whr=contoso.com.
Your custom branding won't immediately appear when your users go to sites such as, www.office.com. Instead, the user has to sign-in before your customized branding appears.

AAD B2B- SharePoint Online modern site- Suite bar inconsistencies

SharePoint guest users see different O365 suite bar branding than organizational AAD users. For SharePoint Online modern experience pages, suchs as Communication site homepage, My AAD B2B users are missing the app launcher, O365 client custom logo in center, and "Username" text in the header. Is this due to AAD licensing for B2B, or just a fluke? See screenshot. Thanks!
Can someone provide some either provide guidence on why these scenarios were selected along with thier resulting functionality (randomness) or provide a roadmap of if these are an issue and when they will be more consistent?

How do I create a new user in AD from SharePoint

I am looking to have a SharePoint Extranet Portal setup for my "partner" clients. I want to make a site admin for each extranet site for each client. This admin would be able to add new users to the portal AND have that user be created in AD (Active Directory).
Has anyone done this or know of a good tool that would provide me that ability to do this?
I would suggest using ADAM (Acitve Directory Application Mode). This way you separate your own company users. Seeing as it's AD, you can keep your existing authentication provider.
See this tool (costs money though) for creating AD users.
Bamboo Solutions User Account Setup Web Part.
DO a Google search for SharePoint and ADAM for more information.
I found these articles on creating users into AD. You could use SmartPart and build your own web part and manage the security implications of this.
