Unable to add web part to SharePoint 2013 page
hello,
My account has full control on the site collection, and when I edit the page and click on the Add a Web Part, nothing happens. I would expect to have a list of web parts that I can select from, but this does not appear. What can I do to enable
this or get web parts added to the page?
Thanks
Paul

Can i use Report viewer web part in SharePoint 2013 app to show SSRS reports?
SharePoint app you mean a simple sharePoint 2013 application like site, team site etc, or do you mean an App (the new feature like webPart).
To add a SSRS Report viewver web part follow these steps
1. Edit the page
2. Choose insert a webpart
3.Select SQL server Reporting -> SQL Server Reporting Services Report Viewer webpart
4. Configure the webpart to show your .rdl files.

Status of DataView Web Part in SharePoint 2013
I hope this is a simple question but I'm stumped. What is the status of the DataView Web Part in SharePoint 2013? I am working on a migration of our site from SP 2010 to SP 2013. We previously had a DataView Web Part which is used widely on our site. It
is not showing up and the error is "Type type could not be found or it is not registered as safe." When I try to add a new copy of this web part, I get the message "The type Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.DataViewWebPart....PublicKeyToen=71e9bce111e9429c"
could not be found or it is not registered as safe.
I'm not the Farm Admin is this case, so my question is whether the web.config needs to be edited to make this usable, or something else perhaps. Or am I simply out of luck using this in SharePoint 2013.
Any help is appreciated!I suspect you will need to compare the web.config files on the new 2013 system to the ones on the old 2010 system and evaluate the differences. The safecontrol entry is in my default 2013 environment. If its not in yours it will need to be added.
For any web part to work you need three things:
A safe control entry in the web.config
A .dll that contains the code that generates the html displayed when the web part is rendered.
A .dwp or .webpart file in the web part gallery that contains info about what class and .dll to use
#3 should be in the content database you are migrating. YOu'll need to verify that #1 & #2 exist.

Minimize web part in Sharepoint 2013
We upgraded SharePoint 2007 to 2013 and now we cannot minimize the web parts even if each part is set with "allow minimize" and chrome state is "Title ad border" or "Title only". Someone could help?
Hi,
Does this behavior occur on application pages ?
As far as I know, it can be caused by that the web part zone's AllowPersonalization peroperty is set to false. If the page is an application page, you can go to C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS to find
your page and make sure the web part zone's AllowPersonalization peroperty is true. Also please add your site to compatibility mode .

Unable to add web part in the web part zone
We have a SharePoint 2010 site collection in which except the home page all other pages are working normally. When we try to click on 'Add a Web Part' button on the home page we won't get the web part gallery and hence we are unable to add any web parts
on the home page.
We checked the permissions, it is fine I have web application level full control.
Home page is not checkout to any body. All other site collections have good home pages where we are able to add web parts.
Please let me know how to fix this issue.
Thank you,
smithHi Victoria Xia,
Below are my answers to your questions
Check the page in SharePoint Designer to see if there are any customization on the page.
There are no customizations on the page. It just has Out of the Box web parts which are already added.
2. Did this issue occur with other user accounts?
Yes, issue is there for all the user accounts.
3. Set another page as home page to see if the issue still occurs.
I have set another page as home page but didn't see any issue.
4. Was there any error when editing the home page?
No, I don't see any errors while editing the home page.

Trending Tags web-part in sharepoint 2013
Hi,
I've added Trending Tags web-part on my application page. Whenever I post a #Tag from wall , it takes around 1 day to reflect in trending-tags web-part. Also , it shows "2 uses in the past week". I have configured the search properly , with incremental
crawl..
The issue is - a) How trending tags work ?(any timer-job or any other configuration stuff)..b) Why it shows "2 uses in the past week" even though it is used by a single user..
Vipul Jaindid you configure search schedule , check below post

Custom web parts in SharePoint 2013 becomes inactive when the session is idle for long time.
Hi,
We have a search center site with custom web parts and custom master pages. When the session is inactive for long time all the custom web parts in the page doesn't work, unless we close the browser and open it. Where as this is not the case with the
OOB web parts. We are not able to identify the root cause as it works with OOB web parts and not the custom web parts.We were able to find that by increasing the session timeout of the web application we can avoid this issue.We do not want to increase the
session timeout as the OOB web part works perfectly even when the user session is idle for long time.Is there any other alternative where we can acheive the same for custom web parts when the session is idle for long time?
Thanks,
SaranyaHi Saranya,
According to your descirption, my understanding is that when the session is long time idle ,then custom web part will not work.
I suggest you check if you have enable the session in the Page Level in the web.config. By default SharePoint disable the session state.
In the web.config, you will see <page enableSessionState> tag. You can modify like below and test if it works.
<pages enableSessionState=”true” ….. />
Here is a detailed thread for your reference:

How to fix javascript error/bug on custom web part of SharePoint 2013
I have a custom web part with serveral business fields. This web part is installed on DispForm, EditForm an NewForm.
But, I click on Attach File button and a javascrit error is throw on my browser's status bar.
Line: 5279
Character: 5
Code: 0
URI: http://mysite:4000/_layouts/15/form.debug.js?rev=vyMg8qjZfJ8La1jn7bQ2cg%3D%3D
How to solve this problem? I think it is a javascript conflict
Tarcísio Corte [email protected]Hi,
1. You can create a simple demo web part without your custom code firstly, then insert it into your form pages to see if the similar issue would occur. If it works, then add your
other code into it one after one. By doing this, it will be easier to find out the root cause of this issue.
2. What browser do you use? Please try to use IE 10(SharePoint 2013), IE8(SharePoint2010).
3. You can also debug your code using IE F12 Developer Tools.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaevans/archive/2011/04/25/debugging-javascript-with-the-ie-developer-tools.aspx
If the issue still exists, I can suggest you provide more information for further research.

Display look up column as drop down list in a web part in SharePoint 2013
Hi,
I have a look up column in SharePoint 2013 calendar list.I want to show that field with values in the page as drop down list to filter the data based in selected value.
Is it possible through OOB or javascript.
Please help .
Thank you.Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to filter a calendar based a look up column in SharePoint 2013.
Calendar View not support OOTB filters connection. it is disabled for calendar view, you need to change view(not calendar view) so OOTB filters works and get connected to your view.
You can achieve this using combination of jQuery and SharePoint OOB techniques.
For jQuery filters refer to the blog: enter SharePoint List Filters using jQuery
Also you can filter Calendar View Web Part using JQuery and SPServices:

http://spservices.codeplex.com/discussions/258846
Another way, you can have a look at the SPFilterCalendar :

Current User Filter not available in the Add Web Parts list - Sharepoint 2007
Hi everybody,
I'm trying to build a copy (or auto-populate) function on a list.
I did all the coding changes, now I need to add a web part to my list called Current User Filter.
Problem is, the Current User Filter is not in the Web Part list at all!
How can I add it ? I looked in the Central Admin Panel and did not see anything.
Thanks in advance!What version of SharePoint are you using? I think that this is s MOSS webpart, so if you're using the WSS version of the product, you're probably out of luck.

Dynamically add web part in sandbox solution
I've site in office 365. I want to add site page in /SitePages on feature activation. I also want to dynamically add web part in this site page.
How can I do this?Hi,
According to your description, you might want to add a page into the “Site Pages” library and add a web part into it in the FeatureActivated event in a Sandboxed solution.
To add a site page, you can refer to the two links below:
