O365 SharePoint Site - How to replace the default Master Page? - sharepoint

We created an HTML file with Office Fabric UI to make it responsive. Our intention is to integrate the HTML file we created with O365 SharePoint site and make it as our Intranet Home Page.
So, please let us know how to replace the default Master Page with our custom file. Any pointers to appropriate pages would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance.

As changes happen on SPO pretty much every week, it might not be a good practice to customize your branding through the master page when you are dealing with SPO. The reason is SPO's master page might be changed based on SPO new release. An alternative solution is to think about custom CSS and JavaScript injection through SharePoint CustomAction. You can reference PnP Partner Pack for site collection provisioning sample with responsive design.
If you really need to custom master page, you probably follow the exactly same way as SharePoint 2013 on premise environment to upload your master page and page layout. You can reference to How to: Convert an HTML file into a master page in SharePoint 2013 for detail information.

Sending custom email notifications from SharePoint 2019

My company has both on premise SharePoint 2019 and SharePoint Online. We just found out that we cannot use SPO for our company intranet due to some security limitations in our current tenant (GCC High). I would like to find a solution that allows me to send a web page as an email from SharePoint 2019, similar to the News Feeds in SPO. SharePoint 2019 only sends a link to the page and not the page content. We would like to use this for company announcements and need to have control over how the email is formatted and include images.
Have tried using workflows and alerts. Both came up short when displaying images in emails. I tried setting up a site that allows anonymous access, so the images are accessible. But when I sent the customized email via a workflow, the images where just displayed with a red x. I think an SPFX solution might be better for what I am trying to do.
Does anyone have a link to a site that shows an example of how this might be done? I assume this would be done using spfx, but if anyone knows of a good third-party software that does this, that might work as well.

Sharepoint 2016 document master detail layout

I am new in SharePoint development. Right now I am working on a project for the Integrated Management System. We need to provide an easy navigation view for users where they can search and view the document in one place.
Is there any built-in web parts specifically for IMS available in SharePoint?
Or any web part available for document master-detail view, like a list of the document on the left side and selected document displays on the right side.
Or do I need to completely depend on the new SharePoint page development?
If you are using SharePoint 2016 on-premises and Office Online Server,
the users can find documents using SharePoint Search, and view into the documents using the hoverpanel.
Please see this blog post (the blog-post has a focus on SharePoint Online, but SharePoint 2016 and Office Online Server provide this feature on-premises as well)

How to create custom masterpage in SPFX classic view

I have created SPFX Project and created Masterpage in classic view and hosted it already in SharePoint online and when I add my SharePoint framework Web parts
to the master page after 2 days cannot edit anymore on the save or do any actions from SharePoint ribbon however my master page works fine at SharePoint online, SO after a lot of searches I found all people use Modern View but in the modern view, I cannot do any branding to my portal
is there any way to fix this problem or Doc to how to create a master page in the SharePoint framework?
You were not able to add branding in Modern Page. You have to use the SharePoint Framework Extensions. By using Application customizer, you can add your customization's in the page placeholders.
Here you can start page placeholders in application customizer.

Cloned SharePoint Environment on Test Server - Pages Appear in Document Libraries but SharePoint Says They are Deleted

I have created a test SharePoint server to be as close to our production server as possible. Production SharePoint databases were backed up and restored to our test server. The three main web.configs (Central Admin, main site, Security Token Service Application) were modified to include our custom app settings.
The site comes up fine, logging in using both AD and our custom FBA membership provider works as well.
Certain pages are visible in the Site Libraries through View All Site Content and using SharePoint Designer but SharePoint says that the page(s) are not found if you try to view them or check them in. Not all pages are not available. If I delete a bad page and replace it with a copy from our production application, it displays fine.
I've already found and tried possible solutions such as restarting the Search Query and Site Settings Service and checking the Alternate Access Mapping. I also found a possible solution that has you go to Component Services and modify security relative to an OSearch14 property. I was not able to modify this since right clicking on the property did not pop up any menu options. I will continue to look into this.
Any Ideas? I appreciate any help.
Thanks.

Is it possible to embed a SharePoint Calendar into a non-SharePoint website?

I am trying to find out if there is a way to put a SharePoint Calendar into a normal web-page that will update whenever the SharePoint Calendar is updated. Does anyone know if it's possible?
-Thanks
SharePoint has some standard web services which you can use to access data stored in the SharePoint site.
Look here for an example of how to use these with at calendar
But be aware that the standard SharePoint web services will not allow you to expand recurring events.
