Add Grouping to community list view

Hello,
I have a community list in my site, and the default view sorts them by date posted.
But we would like to also have them 'grouped' by the category on the page.
For example:
Category #1
Topic a
Topic b
Category #2
Topic c
in previous version of SP Designer, this would have been very simple but for some reason I cannot get it to work in SP 2013.
In designer, I have selected the grouping option. Clicked 'category' and also checked the box display header. But when I view the page, nothing is different. The category is not there.
I also noticed that when I move columns around, there is no change when viewing the page.
What am I do wrong?

Hi,
In my environment, I test to group by the “Category” column in the “Subject” view of the Discussion List in SharePoint Designer 2013.
However, the result is that this Discussion List page is unable to display the web part though I can make and save the changes of the “Subject” view in SharePoint Designer 2013.
Per my knowledge, it seems that we also can’t really modify the “Subject” view of the Discussion List in SharePoint Designer 2013.
As a workaround, you can modify the “Management” view as below to group by the “Category” column and set show groupings “Collapsed” by default.
Also, you can do it as below in SharePoint Designer 2013.
And per my test, the result is opposite based on your select to set the show groupings “Collapsed” or “Expand” by default.
If you set the show groupings “Collapsed” by default, it will show the grouping “Expand” by default in the “Management” view of the Discussion List.
If you set the show groupings “Expand” by default, it will show the groupings “Collapsed” by default in the “Management” view of the Discussion List.
For this “Title” column goes to Management.aspx instead of going to Topic.aspx, it’s due to the different design of the “Management” and “Subject” view in SharePoint 2013 Discussion List.

How to add appointment in calendar list view

How do I add an appointment to my calendar list view now? I used it constantly and I know to touch the magnifying glass to find the list view, but I need to be able to add my appointments too. Is there a setting to change? Thank you.

Hi Karim,
When you create a mobile project un Eclipse using the wizard, you have something like this:
createContent : function(oController) {
return new sap.m.Page({
title: "Title",
content: [
Now you can add your button in two ways:
createContent : function(oController) {
return new sap.m.Page({
title: "Title",
content: [new sap.m.Button("myButton", {
text:"my button"})
Or:
createContent : function(oController) {
var page = new sap.m.Page({
title: "Title"
page.addContent(new sap.m.Button("myButton", {
text:"my button"}));
return page;
And if you want to run the same application on mobile and desktop, you should use the sap.m library. It's responsive and works really well in both devices.

Alternative for GroupStyle.ContainerStyle to make group headers in list view stretch?

Hi all,
as the GroupStyle.ContainerStyle is not supported anymore (see attached MSDN page) is there any way to make the group headers in a listview stretch across the whole listview width?
Thanks for any clues on that :)
Cheers
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/windows.ui.xaml.controls.groupstyle.containerstyle

Hi,
Please see the link:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/dn263110.aspx
GroupStyle class
Three properties of the GroupStyle class for
ListView and GridView are deprecated and ignored. The properties
Panel, ContainerStyle, and
ContainerStyleSelector of GroupStyle are no longer honored when
ItemsPanel is an ItemsStackPanel.
ListView and GridView will be laid out like a traditional list—from top to bottom. Thus, the layout or appearance of items within a group could change in a Windows 8 app that is recompiled
for Windows 8.1 if the app does not explicitly set ItemsPanel but set
Panel, ContainerStyle, and
ContainerStyleSelector. An app that has taken a dependency on the internal structure and types of default
ListView objects can crash because the type of
ItemsPanel will change and GroupItems will not be created when
GroupStyle.Panel is an ItemsStackPanel. This crash would most likely occur when walking the visual tree.
Avoid this by setting ItemsPanel back to the Windows 8 panel (VirtualizingStackPanel)
or removing assumptions about the visual tree structure.
So if you change the ListView ItemsPanel to
VirtualizingStackPanel, the GroupStyle.ContainerStyle can used for ListView in windows 8.1:
<ListView.ItemsPanel>
<ItemsPanelTemplate>
<VirtualizingStackPanel></VirtualizingStackPanel>
</ItemsPanelTemplate>
</ListView.ItemsPanel>

Modify list view - Group by Lookup column's ID

Hi
I have a main list that has a lookup column. The grouping works fine, but I want the sort order of the group to appear as the way the lookup value's ID is ...
What are the ways to achieve this, I do not want to put a number in front of the values, is there another way to do this

I understand that you don't want to add additional info in front of the lookup column values to keep the value exactly as expected.
as SharePoint 2010 allows to lookup additional fields, I would suggest to lookup the item ID also with the lookup column.
1. create a lookup column lookup your expected list.
2. in the lookup column settings, "Add a column to show each of these additional fields", check "ID" column.
3. group by the list view with the additional ID instead.
There is an issue by doing this step, the groupby title value is the lookup ID column not the original lookup column, as we actually doesn't use the lookup columnn with grouping.
For this, you can use SharePoint Designer to edit the list view, change the groupby row cell to the lookup column value instead.

Hi,
Below is the scenario,
If i created any custom list and navigating to the list (AllItems.aspx) and on selecting the item, i can see controls in ITEM and LIST tabs of Ribbon are enabled in SharePoint 2013 publishing site.
If i add the same list in the home page (add web part --> select list view webpart) in the publishing site, on selecting of item, all controls in ITEM and LIST tabs of Ribbon are disabled always.
Please help me to fix this issue ASAP.
Regards,
Krishna

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
Ribbon controls (only ITEM and LIST tab) still in disabled mode even if i selected the item in the list view webpart.
Also, i have noticed the below things,
when i create a published site (default page : default.aspx) and add the list view webpart in the default page, the controls are in disabled mode on selecting item in list view webpart.
when i create a team site (default page : home.aspx) and add the list view webpart in the default page, the controls are in enable mode on selecting item in list view webpart.
Please help me on this.

Custom column in List view

Dear guru's,
I'd like to ask you if its possible to add custom column in list view. For example in tc. FBL1N I'd like to add a column with custom text (for example with value "1" for counting the sum of rows). Is it possible to do without creating custom program?
Thank you all.
Regards.
Michael.

Hi Michael,
It's not possible to add some extra text in standard out-put without modifying it or creating custom program.
For adding a column in your list view. I think this write statement will help you
WRITE 'You can overwrite the following line:'.
FORMAT INPUT ON INTENSIFIED OFF.
WRITE 'WRITE HERE'.
FORMAT INPUT OFF INTENSIFIED ON.

Different query for same view showing on different page as list view web part

Hi all,
If you have three pages and want to add Documents library as list view web part to these three pages with different query (Programmatically), Do you need to create three different views for Documents library or it is possible to have different query when
I add the list view web part to the page?
thanks and appreciate all kind of advice.

When you add a List View Web Part to a page, SharePoint actually copies the selected view query into the Web Part itself. For example:
You create a custom view on a list called "Mede71's View" and you configure it only show the Title column
You add a List View Web Part to a page and update the settings to use the "Mede71's View"
You go back to your list and change "Mede71's View" and add the "Modified Date" column
Your List View Web Part will not reflect this change because in step 2 the Query from the view was copied into the List View Web Part
When you programmatically add the List View Web Part, you can either assign it to an existing view or supply the query directly. If you want to instruct users to be able to add their own web parts pointing to those views in the future, I would recommend
creating the views first.

How do I remove the grouping headings in my list view web part?

I don't have access to SharePoint Designer and so far, that is all I can find that people are saying to use. I understand and know how to edit the HTML in SharePoint, just don't know what code to put in and where exactly to put it so that the Document
Library List View web part is grouped how I want, but doesn't actually show the group titles. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi,
I understand that you want to hide list view group headers, based on your description, I can suggest as follow:
Add this code to a Content Editor Web Part (CEWP) in the list view. Adding a CEWP in a SharePoint 2010 list view will unfortunately remove the list view selector.
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("HideHeaders");
function HideHeaders()
var elements = getElementsByClassName(document, "td", "ms-gb");
var elem;
for(var i=0;i<elements.length;i++)
elem = elements[i];
elem.childNodes[3].style.display = "none";
elem.removeChild(elem.childNodes[4]);
elements = getElementsByClassName(document, "td", "ms-gb2");
for(var i=0;i<elements.length;i++)
elem = elements[i];
elem.childNodes[3].style.display = "none";
elem.removeChild(elem.childNodes[4]);
elements = getElementsByClassName(document, "tr", "ms-viewheadertr");
for(var i=0;i<elements.length;i++)
elem = elements[i];
elem.style.display = "none";

In Share point 2013 how to add more than 2 group by in list

In Share point 2013 how to add more than 2 group by in list .

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to group by on more than 2 columns in a List View in SharePoint 2013.
There is no out of the box way to achieve your scenario directly.
As a workaround, we can use the following method to achieve it.
First, we can insert Data View Web Parts in SharePoint Designer 2013.
It’s because the SharePoint Designer 2013 can’t support Design view, then the Data View Web Parts XSL cannot be visually manipulated.
You can refer to the following article to insert a Data View Web Part.
http://www.synergyonline.com/Blog/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=259
And then, you can use the following solution that can be used to
group by on more than 2 columns in a view
to implement it in SharePoint Designer 2013.

List View - Remove Group By Headers - Column Names

I have a List View web part using Group By. However, when you do that, it uses the Actual column name with a colon in the visual representation.
Also, there is a bar with the name of the column showing.
I don't want to have either of these showing. I have found pages on the net that tell you how to do this using SPD, but because that causes unghosting, we don't use SPD.
Also, I found this, using Javascript:
http://amitphule.blogspot.com/2011/10/hiding-group-headers-from-sharepoint.html
This works. However, it removes the Editing components of the ribbon also - you can't go back later and do any editing.
Does anyone have any other ideas on this?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to remove Group By Headers in the List View web part.
I try to reproduce the issue using the code you provided, however, I can edit the items.

SharePoint 2010 List View with Group By is Not Sorting Correctly

My organization has a list in SharePoint 2010 that is being used as a FAQ. The list contains the following columns:
Question- Single line of text
Answer- Multiple lines of text
Priority- Number
Priority is the importance of the question and is a unique integer number. Higher Priority questions are to be displayed at the top of the list.
A view has been created to display the Question and Answer columns, grouped by Question, and sorted by Prioity. The problem is that the SharePoint is not sorting by priority. I have added display of Priority and embedded a screen capture showing the order
going non sequentially from 1,005 to 1,024 to 1,015.
Is this a known defect? Is there a workaround? Are there other options?
Regards,
Darian.

Hi,
Based on your description, I have done a test. I can reproduce your issue.
Per my test, I come up with a conclusion.
When we group by Question, the list view is be grouped. Then we sort by Priority, actually it is only sort the item within a group rather than the entire list.
So the items inside of different groups out of order is normal.

Modify columns in list view - add annotations

Hello! Does anyone know if we can add new columns to the list view of assets in the production window? My goal is to have a column that shows annotation information in the list view. Possible?
Thanks!

Yes, kind of. You can add (and subtract) columns to a list view by modifying the List (ASSETLISTVIEW) metadata group. You can add Annotations but I'm not sure what you'll see for a value given it is not a unicode value field. It might not be a ver useful field to have in list view.

On list view in folders, how do I click drag second group of files?

Back in Snow Leopard and all previous systems, I was able to on list view in a folder be able to click and drag a set of files to select them, then by pressing command again, click drag on a second group of files I would like to select together and so forth. This was handy as I can select really quick on list view folders and files which I need. Obviously the files are listed alphabetically and I don't need to select them all, only groups of files eg. files which are all pdfs that are randomly spread out based on names, or mp3s which I want to move but not move the folders that are in the same folder. You get my drift.
Now on Lion, I can only click drag first group of files, and then on second selection by pressing command, I cannot drag anymore files except for the first click of the file I select.
Is this going to be like this for Lion or did Apple leave this out accidently? Is there a setting I can set back to previous style of group click/drag selection?
This is a bit annoying as I would like to quickly group select a could of groups in a folder QUICKLY to drag to other folders or to simply trash them all in one go. Now I have to stop and start and it slows down my productivity when I have to clean my files on my computer.
Thanks for your help.

I have the same problem.
I've made another post...
Hoping this is a Bug and not a new feature...

I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order.

I have two albums (RCA Sweeny Todd 2 discs set and RCA Into the Woods 1 disc) where the songs are listed as being on the same album on the list view, but do not group together on the iPod, so the songs can't play consecutively, or in the proper order. The "Apply Sort Field" and "Same album does not work, but ti is only these two RCA albums that do this. All other albums remain intact. Need help with this minor problem. Thanks.

UPDATE: This behavior (to an extent) still happens when "Repeat Album" is off. Instead of an infinite loop, it goes through all the tracks on the album (unsuccessfully) and kicks me out to the Album overview screen. Going back to list of Albums and tapping the Album again brings up "No Content: You can download music from the iTunes Store" but that screen immediately kicks me back to list of Albums.
So I am just even more confused now.
