Team Site Master Page issue

I have the same issue in SharePoint 2013.
The following link is for SharePoint 2010.

Master Page changes in the team site only when System Master Page is changed. But this will effect the site administration.

Change site master page not working in team site

For an intranet site I have a heavily customized master page but want to retain the default v4 master for admin pages. I haven't activated publishing for the site but can access changesitemasterpage.aspx and set the site and system master page.
Action:
Set site master to custom, set system master to v4
Expected result:
Exactly what the description says:
"The system master page will be used by administrative pages, lists, and document library views on this site."
Actual result:
ALL pages use the v4 master.
The only way to get the custom master to work is to change the system master setting to "custom". But then the styling interferes with the functionality of the admin pages. Is this another case of SP not doing what it says it's going to do,
or is it broken?

Hi ,
For your issue, there are two approaches you can refer to:
1.Activate publishing feature, set custom master page for “Site Master Page”. The site master page will be used by all publishing pages - the pages that visitors to your website will see.
2.Go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS, you can find all the application pages in the folder (such as settings.aspx) . Open the aspx page
and find the dynamicMasterPage attribute at the page tag, change the value to default.master instead of custom.master. (not recommend)

SharePoint 2013 RTE Custom Styles lost on Team Site Wiki Page after you select a control in the editor

I have a weird issue in that I have custom RTE styles working fine in publishing pages, but in the team site wiki page, when you first go into edit mode you see your styles, but if you highlight some text, select say the font drop down to expand it and then
select it again to contract it (i.e. without selecting a font), all of a sudden all of the custom styles are lost and everything reverts back to the default RTE styles.
In my master page I am running the following script to force my styles to be loaded.
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(
function() {
     $(
"div[RteRedirect]").each(function()
varid = $(this).attr("RteRedirect"),
         editSettings = $(
"#"+ id);
if(editSettings.length > 0 &&
editSettings[0].PrefixStyleSheet != 'custom-rte')
             editSettings[0][
'PrefixStyleSheet'] =
'custom-rte';
             editSettings[0][
'StyleSheet'] =
'\u002f_layouts\u002f15\u002fFiveP\u002frteStyles.css';
             RTE.Canvas.fixRegion(id,
false);
"sp.ribbon.js");
See below screenshots (note Heading 2 is orange).
After you collapse the font menu, you see that the orange H2 has disappeared, and selecting the font drop down again now shows all of the default SharePoint RTE styles.
I haven't been able to capture the Event that is being called using the debugger. Any ideas how to fix this?

Custom Master Page issue with Document Set Libraries

Details: Publishing site using SharePoint 2013. The SharePoint is on my company's servers.
Have a custom Master page that has a navigation banner (built with HTML/CSS/javascript). The site has it applied successfully to the "Site Master Page" but when I also apply it to the "System Master Page", the libraries that have
Document Set type content do not show the files within. We'd like to be successful in applying to the "System Master Page" as that allows the banner to show when an actual library is accessed. Any suggestions, please?

Thanks. I've been experimenting with this for a few days now, and there's lots I don't understand about why and such, but your process above works. That's a big load off me right now and I really appreciate it. I'm going to be able to survive the initial
roll-out and implementation of the new site. Going forward, I've got lots to learn and find out, I've already heard that there's a desire to really redesign the master page for the site and subsites, way beyond the little CSS customization I did. Fun.
If you've got a little time though, perhaps you can provide some explanation. If not, no problem.
On step 6, when I do as you detail, click the System Master Page and reset all the subsites, it seems to work fine with my custom master page. If I do that with the Site Master Page settings, my custom page causes the redirect issue in the subsites again.
This is whether I do the Site Master Page by itself, or in conjunction with the System Master Page settings. If I revert back to the Seattle master page in the Site Master Page settings and my custom pate in the System Master Page, the issue goes away again.
It is completely messing with my head, trying to figure out why that would be, and this is all beside trying to figure out why adding the one little CSS reference to the Seattle master to create my master page breaks things (sometimes!).
Just fyi, what I've ended up with for now is pulling my custom master page out of the system and using the Alternate CSS URL to add my custom CSS to the Seattle master page on the sites. As I thought about all this, I decided I didn't want to leave the breakable
custom page out there for some unsuspecting site manager to accidentally pick and get everyone screaming about the broken sites.
Thanks again,
Steven

Custom master page issue in subsites

Greetings!
I've run into an oddity with a custom master page on my SharePoint 2013 Enterprise server. I copied the html for the seattle master page, renamed it so it wouldn't change the seattle master, made an addition to it to add a reference to a custom css
file, then threw it back up on the site so SP would make a new .master file with it. I created a new web app and site collection, put the custom css file in the Style Library and added the custom master page to the Master Pages.
So, all that being done, I changed the look of the top level site to use the new master page and it looks great and seems to be working as expected. We've got a number of subsites planned for underneath this top level site, I'm thinking no problem, just
put the custom master file in the master pages and we'll be good. So I create a subsite, put the custom master page in the subsite's Master Pages, change the look. The master page and custom css apply and it looks good, but, then the problem starts.
When I go into a document library and change a view or add a view or delete a view I get back an odd response page from SP. In the url I see this: https://topsite/subsite/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=65001
and in the body of the message: 69|pageRedirect|owssvr|https://topsite/subsite/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx|
When I go back into the subsite, whatever change I was attempting when I get these results worked fine.
So, why does my custom master page work fine on the top level, but not on the subsites? If I switch the subsite back to the Seattle.master, the oddity goes away, so that tells me it's something to do with my custom master page and/or custom css. I did
some searching for owssvr.dll?CS=65001 and didn't see anything that helped. I checked IIS and the web.config file and don't have ASP.net tracing on that I could find.
All that the custom css is doing is increasing the size allowable for the site icon (.ms-siteicon-img) to allow for a larger icon (180px square) and it pushes the side Nav Box down a bit to make room for the larger icon and changes the font size for the
side Nave Box (#sideNavBox). Since it works on the top site, I'm not suspecting the css, but, it's not making sense to me why the custom master page wouldn't work in subsites either.
I ran into this issue earlier, it was showing up when deleting folders from the document library. I thought I'd made a boo-boo somewhere in creating the custom master page, or how I'd added it, or something (kind of a learn as I go situation here), so I
deleted the entire web app and recreated it, hoping for a clean start and a good master page and everything would be good. Guess I'm still missing something.
I swear that the ONLY change I made to the seattle html file for my custom page was to add this line just below the corev15.css line: 
So, that's my sad story. Any suggestions, other than to punt on the custom master page?
Thanks!
Steven

Teamsite Master page Issue

Hi,
I have created team site. I have applied custom master page. But I am getting one error
"The DataSourceID of 'V4QuickLaunchMenu' must be the ID of a control of type IHierarchicalDataSource. A control with ID 'QuickLaunchSiteMap' could not be found."
Can you please tell me where am I wrong.
Shubho

Hi,
The error is always related to the custom navigation provider.
Did you check whether the TopNavigationDataSource has been overridden, or the delegate control exists in your Master Page?

Custom Master Page Issue in Intranet

Hi All,
I hope someone can assist with this, we implemented this particular SharePoint 2007 portal approximately 5 years ago. An outside consultant created this custom master page, for some reason out of nowhere we are experiencing this bizarre issue with
the master page and checking in and out documents. I have attached an image showing the error message being displayed below(couldn't attach until my account was verified but it states 'Error invalid viewstate, port 52208, user agent Mozilla/4.0..., viewstate,
referrer, path). I came across one source on the web that stated something about the search box code and it causing issues out of nowhere on the master page. So in my dev environment I made the change and removed the following code from the master
page below.
<td style="padding-top:8px;" valign=top>
            <asp:ContentPlaceHolder id="PlaceHolderSearchArea" runat="server">
            <SharePoint:DelegateControl runat="server" ControlId="SmallSearchInputBox"/>
            </asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</td>
As soon as this code is removed and the page is published again everything begins to work again, the problem is I can't remove search from this intranet portal as it is heavily used. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

By any chance, do you still have access to the solution package in which the master page was contained? Normally, you would see another .ascx user control overriding the delegate search control in there. I'm almost positive that this custom control is
what causing this issue.

Master page issue

Has the problem of objects in the master pages falling out of the document after exporting to pdf been addressed in CS6?

Two very recent threads on this:
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1018754?tstart=60
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1016281?tstart=30
Both threads mention CS6, but I can personally vow this also happens with CS4 -- only last month, an intern ran afoul of it and all I needed was a single glance to spot the issue.
I have a habit of *never* straddling objects across master pages; it could be I learned not to as much as a decade ago. I'm pretty sure every now and then it was mentioned as a harmful bug in this forum.

How to add a reference to a custom stylesheet from a Team Site wiki page

We have a Team Site (no publishing feature enabled). We have several wiki pages where we inserted custom html content via "edit source". This custom content has some divs defined in it to which we want to apply some styling. We
have styles.css saved in Style Library. How do I reference this style.css from the wiki page? I don't want to put the style definition on the wiki page itself since the same style will be shared by multiple pages.
thanks,

There are a variety of customization options available for BEA Workshop. Through metadata you can define renderings for custom tags, tag appearance in the tag libraries view, customize the tag editors, and much more.
Information about customization can be found at the following link: http://workshopstudio.bea.com/docs/tlei.htm
Adding custom tag documention to the Tag Libraries view is not currently a configuration option but would be a useful addition. I will file an enchancement request for this functionality.

CS3 to CS5 Master page issue

Hi, we just got CS5 at work and we're testing the compatibility with our CS3 projects.
Almost everything seems fine aside from this weird problem, i got a master page graphic on master page C that is appearing on a master page B (in the document not in the master page panel). In fact, in every chapter of my book, everytime that Master C is applied on the right page, the left page seems to use that master page too, but its suppose to be B.... and the page panel says B... i can select the graphic, unlock it and delete it... which.. does not seem to be the right thing to do.
is there an option that says that spreads must use the same master pages or something?
In the screenshot below, i'm trying to show the page panel on page 200, that says B, but as you can see, there's a graphic behind my text frame that comes from the page on the right...
Thanks in advance!

I think the solution for this is go to page panel and right click on pages and uncheck option 'Allow selected spread to shuffle' (red box), so you now drag the page down (orange box), I think this will solve the problem for now, but if that happen with a lot of pages, you will need more time to do that with all pages

hope it is clear and useful

Master pages not applying to site and subsites

I am having an issue with a master page not applying to a site and subsites. The site is created using the community template and has the following hierarchy:
TopLevel: SharePoint Central - server/SPCtrlv2/sitepages/welcome.aspx (webpart page)
subsite1: Community - server/SPCtrlv2/community/sitepages/categories.aspx (community template)
subsite2: Learn - server/SPCtrlv2/learn/pages/default.aspx (publisher template)
subsite3: Showcase - server/SPCtrlv2/showcase/default.aspx (blog template)
The community site was created and then the Welcome page was changed to point to the Welcome.aspx location. (not sure if that matters) When making the application from the top level via Site Settings > Look and Feel > Master Page > dropdown from
Site Master Page (SPC_Global), the master is only applying to the Learn sub site. In SP Designer, the master page/ css files are not showing although they are on the site. (Using designer 2010)
I was able to apply the master with no problem when the top level used the publisher site template. Unfortuately, the community template is not available at the sub site level so we created a new site with the community template at the top.
Any guidance you can provide is much appreciated

Hi,
According to your description, you want to apply master page to all sub sites.
Did you use SharePoint 2010 or SharePoint 2013?
If you use SharePoint 2013, you may need to use SharePoint Designer 2013 to find the master page file.
For applying master page to all subsites, I suggest you do as the followings:
1. Make sure you have enabled the “Reset all subsites to inherit this site master page setting” in the Top Level “site
setting”->”site master page setting”.
2. Check whether you have enabled “Inherit site master page from parent of this site” in the “site setting”->” site master page setting” of each sub site.
There are some detailed articles for your reference:

Master Page - Theme only applies to 'Owners' not Visitors

Hi,
I'd initially raised this as an issue in O365 forums but was pointed to here to help try and resolve the issue. Issue below:
We have designed a new theme for our default site https://[tenant information was removed by moderator].sharepoint.com (not the public site). In Master Pages https://[tenant information was removed by moderator].sharepoint.com/_layouts/15/ChangeSiteMasterPage.aspx we
have set our default theme to GCC/gcc (the name of our theme). We have then applied this to all subsites by clicking: Reset all subsites to inherit this site master page setting.
This works for me and the person who designed the theme and we can see the new theme. However anyone on that site with visitor / read permission cannot see the new theme and they just get presented a default theme with some css styles that don't appear.
I did notice that if i browse to https://[tenant information was removed by moderator].sharepoint.com/_catalogs/masterpage/Forms/Html%20Master%20Pages.aspx The master page gallery page on the parent site that the theme isn't listed in there
and there are two themes there in draft. How can we upload the theme in to master page gallery and publish the theme out?
Would this be the reason that our visitors to our site cannot see our new theme? Is there a way to get around the theme issue?

Hi Anandakrishnan,
The master page is currently published as a major version however the theme still only shows up for owners / members but not for visitors. Is this a permissions issue somewhere?
We created the theme by doing the following:
creating a new master page with a CSS file, published this master page and assigned it as the Site Master Page and the System Master Page.
If you are an owner or member of the site you can see the theme but if you are a visitor you cannot. Any other ideas?
We are using SharePoint Online and the plan we have is SharePoint Online Plan 1 as part of Office 365 business premium plan.
