Page Auto List and File Auto List widget folder rename issue

I added widget called “Page Auto List” and point to a folder destination called “folder-bob” (for example).

Later, client called me and wanted me to rename the folder to something more meaningful, so I renamed that folder to “aaron-is-cool”.

Then client complained that the “Page Auto List” widget doesn’t populate the pages anymore.

I checked the Page Autolist Widget and noticed it doesn’t automatically update the folder destination even after renaming?

If I am not unclear, here’s the video for example: https://sfcollegeedu-my.sharepoint.com/:v:/g/personal/56007721_sfcollege_edu/ESXAUmHkt2lCtbaWyALPQVwBr4w_w3T5ZKQxazATL7fztw?e=NYobf4

Hi Aaron,

There is no auto update for the List widgets currently when folders or sites are renamed. In 5.4 site renames will update the list widgets, but I don’t think we auto-update on folder moves / renames, will check and get back to you.
