SharePoint 2013 and Native Mode SSRS Web Parts

SharePoint 2013 and SQL Server 2012 installation. Trying to get the SSRS native mode web parts installed as per these instructions:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159772.aspx
Have tried both via PowerShell and stsadm. In both cases, get an error regarding "Failed to extract the cab file in the solution". Have done this a bunch of times in SharePoint 2007 and 2010, is this solution no longer supported in
2013 and if so, is there a supported way of integrating with SSRS in Native Mode for SharePoint 2013?

OK, let me amend my statement a bit.
Found this article: http:// social.msdn.microsoft.com /Forums/sqlserver/en-US/5b9de028-5b6a-47c7-8da8-793d1a78df55/error-with-sql-server-2012-rswebpartscab-for-sharepoint-2010
Mind you, I was able to get the SQL Server 2012 version of RSWebParts.cab to install successfully on the SharePoint 2010 dev box in the environment, but figured that trying the SQL Server 2008 R2 version of RSWebParts.cab was worth a shot. It worked
(or at least it installed and I am able to add the web parts to pages). Will post an update once I am able to test full web part functionality with an SSRS Native Mode server.
So, what I can say from my testing:
SQL Server 2012 version of RSWebParts.cab works (installs) for a SharePoint 2010 installation but not for a SharePoint 2013 installation.
SQL Server 2008 R2 version of RSWebParts.cab works (installs) for a SharePoint 2010 installation and for a SharePoint 2013 installation.
There is no update to RSWebParts.cab in SQL Server 2012 SP1 (at all, not in any part of it including the Reporting Services Add-In), the file is always 10/20/2012.
So, as long as you are trying to integrate a SQL Server 2008 R2 SSRS Native Mode instance or lower on your SharePoint 2013 farm, there is a solution. However, it will likely not work against a SQL Server 2012 SSRS Native Mode installation.
So, the amended statement is that:
"The bottom line is that it *appears* that there currently is no supported version of the Native Mode (2.0) version web parts for SQL Server Reporting Services2012
(RSWebParts.cab) for SharePoint 2013. Therefore, there is currently no way to integrate SharePoint 2013 with a SQL Server Reporting Services
2012 instance running in native mode."
And, no, none of this really makes any sense in the least but that is what my testing shows.

SharePoint 2013 Promoted Links issue

Hi,
I am encountering an issue in which I need some input. This is a SharePoint 2013 environment and the issue is related to Promoted Links. The issue is that after 60 seconds the title on the promoted links disappear. Checking in developer tools, I notice
that the div tag that houses the title information disappears also. I am attaching the images that depict the behavior. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
We need more investigation for troubleshooting:
Are you using OOB promoted links app in SharePoint 2013?
Is there customization on the issue app? If so, how did you customize it?

How to prevent RSS Viewer web part from overriding list-item CSS style?

I am using SharePoint Online. I have a web part page with a number of web parts with links. Font size of the links is ~12px.
If I add an RSS Viewer web part to the page, then it overrides the 'list-item' class CSS Style to something like 8px, which is unreadable.
To correct this I have tried the following:
1. Added the following code to a Script Editor Web Part on same page:
<style type="text/css">
.item link-item
font-size:20px !important;
.link-item
font-size:20px !important;
</style>
2. Completely deleted all XSL from the RSS Viewer web part and replaced it with very simple formatting code which format the links within the RSS web part to 16px - but still the other links are set to 8px.
3. Linked a custom style sheet to the relevant master page and set the link-item classes in there, ensuring that it is executed after the standard SharePoint css.
...but nothing works!
It appears that, as soon as the RSS Viewer web part is added to the page it overrides the list-item style and then will not release it even if all the XSL within the web part is deleted!
On deleting the RSS Viewer from the page and saving it, the links font size returns to normal.
Does anyone have a fix/work around for this?
Thanks in advance,
Jimmy

Hi Jimmy,
I recommend to use “.link-item a” instead as the code below to change the font size of the links:
<style>
.link-item a
font-size:20px !important;
</style>
And I tested the code above in my environment and it worked fine.
Best regards,
Thanks

SharePoint 2013 Online : Custom List view xslt webpart UI vs List View WebPart UI with search ? How to create a xslt list view webpart same UI as list View webpart ???

I have created a xslt list view webpart but I does not have UI as SharePoint 2013 list view UI.
how I can have it.
Ahsan Ranjha

Hi Ahsan,
According to your description, my understanding is that the UI is different between XSLT web part and List View web part.
Per my knowledge, the List View web part is a kind of the XSLT list view web part which uses XSLT to display data on the page.
http://sharepoint-videos.com/list-view-and-data-view-web-parts/
How did you add the XSLT web part and the List View web part?
Could you please provide a screenshot of the two web parts?
Best regards.
Thanks

Linking two lists to create a Data Source but cannot add web part to page in SharePoint designer

All;
I created a new data source by linking two lists which created a linked Data Source. I now want to access that linked data source via insertion of a Data Source control on a web part page.
What I find is, both DATA SOURCE and DATA VIEW are inactive and unselectable.
Is there any way to get this functionality going?
Thx
Larry Pexter

Hi Larry,
Since it is a coding UI, we need to put cursor into appropriate place so we can insert data view web part, i.e. the coding which represents the web part in to the whole coding part.
As I tested in my envrionment, if you put cursor between <ZoneTemplate> and </ZoneTemplate>, I cannot get the DATA view, even before </ZoneTemplate>. Please put it exactly before <ZoneTemplate>.
If you have modify the coding, please click save and test the issue again.

Hi Tim,
Let’s verify the followings:
Whether this issue occurred for other lists in the same site.
Whether this issue occurred for all users who don’t have full control.
Whether this issue occurred on other sites.
When you created the people & group column, which show field did you used? Please try to use a different show field for the people & group column, compare the result.
In addition, please check if the link is useful:

Can you create two separate tile views for a Promoted Links List

I have lots of pages on my site where i want the effect of the promoted links list tile view. However, i don't want the same links to show up on every spot i use it. Is there not a way to create separate tile views so you can create filtering conditions?
Right now i am stuck having 5 separate lists with 5 items in each because of this limitation. Am i missing something?
I look forward to your responses.
~Zach

There is an easy way to do this.
Add columns to the Promoted Links list.
Add a column named Page.
Type in name of the page on which you would like this link to appear.
Add a column named Row.
Create a view filtered by page name and Row. Example: Show only when Page = HomePage AND Row = 1
Create another view filtered by page name and another Row. Example: Show only when Page = HomePage AND Row = 2.
Go the page you would like the links to appear. Edit the Page.
Add Promoted Links app part (still not used to the app thing) and select your view for Row 1
Add another Promoted Links app part and select the view for Row 2.
Lather, Rinse and Repeat.

How to export SharePoint 2013 Calendar View to PPT or as an image?

Greetings!
I am working on a SharePoint 2013 event calendar and should be able to provide a capability to export my calendar view (day/week/month) as a PPT slide or as an image. I understand that OOB we can export the calendar list to Excel or open using MS Access.
I had been exploring the option of using the Chart View Web Part which can be saved as an image (jpeg/bmp/png). Here are the pitfalls - Chart View WP does not support calendar view. At best, I am able to use the Gantt Chart Types, but having difficulty using
Calendar list "Start Time" column for one of the axes. There is End Time and Duration columns available for selection, but not start time. Also, I am unable to define date range for my date in the x-axis. Right now I have an x-axis
that spans over 40 years. Is there any way to confine the chart for a particular quarter or year.
At this time, I am inclined to look at custom development approaches. Any suggestions regarding an approach will be really helpful.
Thanks!

Well, even if you want to go through "Export", it will be more manual work than taking a screenie. Unless of course you want to achieve it programmatically (am not sure what to do there).
Another option could be to subscribe to the SharePoint Calendar from Outlook. That way you can eliminate the need for the PPT (?) and also enable your users/clients/management to have more clarity on how the dates stand vis-a-vis other stuff they have listed
on their calendars.

To enhance the layout of the view, you can create new UI elements. This procedure is no different u2013 from a technical viewpoint u2013 from creating UI elements in components themselves. All UI elements created within the enhancement implementation can then be processed as usual.
Enhancements means inserting user developments into SAP development objects at predefined positions.
The Enhancement Framework enables you to add functionality to standard SAP software without actually changing the original repository objects, and to organize these enhancements as effectively as possible.

HT201301 how to add app to file sharing list ?

how to add app to file sharing list ?
For expamle, i have autocad ws app on iPad. When i had previous version of iTunes i saw this program in file sharing list.
After upgrading iTunes AutoCad have gone from this list, how can I return this back?
Thank You.

From what I read in the app description in iTunes on my computer, you need some sort of account and you use this with a desktop program as well. Files are uploaded to a server???
I see no mention of file sharing in the app description.
https://itunes.apple.com/app/autocad-ws/id393149734?mt=8
BTW, you cannot add an app to file sharing - it has to suppport file sharing on it's own - it must be built into the app. If the app supports file sharing, it will be in the file sharing apps list in iTunes.

Does anyone know how to Add a date drop down list to a pdf file?

Can someone tell me how to add a Date drop down list in a form

There's no built-in function that does that in Acrobat, but there are some third-party tools that do.
The two most known ones are by FormRouter, which is free and based on form fields (but also a bit buggy), and a non-free version created by Max Wyss, which is based on a dialog object.

List view web part not reflecting changes made to list view in SharePoint Designer

Dear All,
When adding a list view web part containing a view modified in SharePoint designer (e.g. conditional formatting applied, or group headers modified) I'm finding that the changes made in SPD are not reflected in the web part.
For example, I go into SPD edit a view, and the view appears correctly when I go back into SharePoint, however when I link to the view within a list view web part it results in losing the changes made in SPD.
Becasue it's a publishing page I'm unable to edit the contents of the web part in SPD.
I'm sure this is expected behavior but how do I get around this?
Thnaks,
MDB
