Customising a List Form View without Infopath

Hello,
I have a basic form I am using in sharepoint 2013 (standard) that is based off a list.
What is the best way to customize the view form page of this list without infopath? Will I have to do it within the code via SPD?
Thanks
Sean

We use HTML and a javascript framework (jQuery, KnockOut, Angular, etc).
Deployments are usually pretty light (we avoid WSPs), and skillset is easier to find (compared to someone who knows about WSPs). Also, I tend to feel that it's more upgrade proof.

Customise List Form Label WITHOUT InfoPath

Hi
I am trying to change the colour of a label in an NewForm, EditForm etc without using InfoPath. Is this possible? I cannot find the CSS tag when debugging using the Developer Tools on the browsers! Just for clarity, looking at the screenshot below, I want
to change the color of the font E-Mail...
Any help would be great.
Thanks!

Hi,
You can use SharePoint Designer and create custom list forms- you can find more details here: SharePoint 2013: Building

How to have digital signature in a Sharepoint 2013 custom list form created in InfoPath 2013?

I have a requirement that they want a form in SP13 that would allow Mobile mode. Supervisor then can sign off the form in mobile mode. Because Document Library form doesn't have Mobile client support so I decided to create this as a custom List
form. Now I'm finding out that when I right click on the section on the form to enable e-signature, there is no such option. I appreciate it if someone can give me some suggestion on how to have a form that has both Mobile mode and e-signature
support in SP13.
I also noticed that the people picker doesn't work in Mobile mode. Is that so or is there something-else I need to configure?
Thank you.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to create an InfoPath form which supports Mobile mode and e-signature in SharePoint 2013.
Per my knowledge, the browser-based forms cannot support signature in Mobile device.
Here are some other products which are not free can achieve this goal for you to take a look:

Optimize forms view in Infopath 2010 for email submit in Outlook 2010

I have an infopath form I designed. I setup an email submit rule to send only the active view of the form with no attachment.
However when I submit and check my outlook inbox the form looks very stretched in the body of the email. Any ideas on how to modify the forms active view so it is optimized in Outlook 2010?
I only have 1 view; and multiple views are not required.

Hi Gopikishan,
From your description, when Approver2 click Open this task in Outlook, no Approve button displayed on the form. If I misunderstood, please point it out.
I created a simple approval workflow in SharePoint Designer and assigned it to Admin and user1, choosing serial (one at a time). As I could see in the workflow setting page, there is only one form in Forms block. And I opened it in my InfoPath form, it displayed
as I clicked Open this task in Outlook.
So I’d recommend you check if there is more than one form in workflow setting page. And also check if there is any rule which will affect on whether Approval button shows or not.

How to open form in another form view when click image in list view?

Hi All,
I have created list view where "Picture" is one of the column. If you click Picture column it will open its item. I achieve using this
resource.
Actually that list form has been customized by InfoPath and create two views.
Now, when i click that Picture column in that list view, it should open in another view instead of default view. How to achieve this?
Here is my code:
// List View – Field open modal dialog Sample
(function () {
// Create object that have the context information about the field that we want to change it output render
var pictureFiledContext = {};
pictureFiledContext.Templates = {};
pictureFiledContext.Templates.Fields = {
//"Picture" is the column name.
"Picture": { "View": pictureFiledTemplate }
SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(pictureFiledContext);
function pictureFiledTemplate(ctx) {
var url= ctx.CurrentItem[ctx.CurrentFieldSchema.Name];
var itemID=ctx.CurrentItem.ID;
var itemTitle=ctx.CurrentItem.Title;
return "<img alt='"+url+"' src='"+url+"' complete='complete' onclick=\"openModalDialog('EditForm.aspx?ID="+itemID+"','"+itemTitle+"')\" />";
function openModalDialog(url,title)
var options = {
title: "Item-"+title,
width: 600,
height: 600,
url: url
SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog(options);
return false;

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you customized the list form, and created two list view.
I had created two list view, named view1 and view2, and customized the list form using the InfoPath.
Then replaced the code onclick=\"openModalDialog('EditForm.aspx?ID="+itemID+"','"+itemTitle+"')\"
with
onclick=\"openModalDialog('view2.aspx?ID="+itemID+"','"+itemTitle+"')\".
Afther that, edit the view1 page, Edit the list web part. Go to Miscellaneous -> JS Link, add the following URL into the JS Link textbox.
~site/Shared Documents/PictureFieldTemplate.js
Now when you click the image, it would open the view2 page.
Thanks & Regards,

Complete InfoPath form without InfoPath external customer

I have installed and setup SharePoint 2013 Enterprise and have been using InfoPath form libraries without any issues
I need to create a form that our customers will complete but not all of our customers will have InfoPath installed.
I tried to use the email form but did not show the form in Outlook, instead it just displayed the xml code
My question is what is the best type of from to create and how to allow external customers to view and complete the form
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want users to create and view an InfoPath form when the computer doesn't install InfoPath application. Is it right?
You can design the form using InfoPath in your computer, then publish the form to a SharePoint site. And when you publish, make sure you select "Enable this form to be filled out by using browser". Then after you publish it, users can create or
view or edit the form using browser.
More information, you can refer to the link:

Infopath list form displays blank in edit mode in SharePoint 2010

Hi,
I have a custom list in SharePoint 2010. I am using InfoPath 2010 form to Insert and Edit list data. The list was working fine in the past days. Suddenly the InfoPath form displays nothing when I click on the Edit Item Button but its working fine in New
Item and Read Only mode. I checked Form Web Parts--> Content Type Forms--> (Item) Edit Form where the InfoPath form Web Part is missing. I added the InfoPath Form Web Part manually there then the InfoPath form displaying blank where
list data is available. All other lists are working fine in the site collection.
Would somebody help to resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hi pointtoshare,
When you added a new item in the custom list, whether this issue occurred.
Whether you could customize the custom list form using InfoPath.
Please click on “Customize Form”, it will be opened with InfoPath, check whether the default view has data. And create a new view, set it as default view, publish it , compare the result.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,

Finding a list of all customized InfoPath forms in SP2010

Hello All,
Is there any possible way we can get a list of all the Infopath forms which were customized from the entire site collection?
I have a restriction to use only JQuery or client side object scripting at the most from a programming perspective. I cant use PowerShell or
server side scripting.
To give you a little background, we are in the process of migrating our SP2010 site collections to Azure 2013. The server side team wants a list of all customized InfoPath forms (or list names) so that they
can check if there were any data connections made outside the current site collection.
Unfortunately, we dint keep a track of all the lists which were being customized through InfoPath forms.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,
It is very easy to create highly customized, sophisticated forms without writing any code using InfoPath 2010. You may follow the steps given into this informative resource to Customize a list form using InfoPath 2010 : https://support.office.com/en-nz/article/Edit-list-forms-using-InfoPath-2010-in-SharePoint-Designer-f86cf514-9a11-4613-a479-12a1a0132d22?ui=en-US&rs=en-NZ&ad=NZ#__toc245027338
Moreover, you may also give shot to this automated solution(http://www.sharepointauditing.com/) that could be a good approach to deal in such situation. It will help you to get rid from your issue.

View application pages - view forms views and application pages. enumerate lists

view application pages - view forms views and application pages. enumerate lists, if we disable this permission in sharepoint then user gets blocked from getting into application pages which is good. But now I have few list view web parts on a page and user
is not able to see those reports based on view. It shows working on it. As soon as I enable view application pages permission it works.
I need a permission level -view forms views only.
MCTS Sharepoint 2010, MCAD dotnet, MCPDEA, SharePoint Lead

Hi Amit,
SharePoint has a feature called “ViewFormPagesLockDown” at site collection scope. After enabling the feature, all groups / users not having the “View Application Pages” permission will not be able to navigate to pages like “_layouts/viewlsts.aspx”
or “pages/forms/allitems.aspx”.
So, for your issue, please disable the ViewFormPagesLockDown feature via PowerShell command:
$lockdownFeature = get-spfeature viewformpageslockdown
disable-spfeature $lockdownFeature -url [the URL of your site]

Calculated Value in Infopath List Form only appears when editing.

I have a InfoPath 2010 List Form running against SharePoint 2010 Enterprise. I've created a calculated value that returns data from a secondary list. The returned value is correct but isn't being displayed in the display form. It only appears
when I click Edit. Help!?!

Hi dshupe,
According to your description, my understanding is that you were using a Calculated Value control in InfoPath, and the contorl could not display in the list display form.
I reproduced this issue, and it seem to be impossible to display the control in display form.
For implementing your requirement, you can add a textbox control, and set default value using calculated value(formula) for the textbox control, then set the control read-only. After that, the textbox control can not only work as well as a Calculated
Value control, but also display in display form.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,

if it is not possible any other way I can achieve repeating kind of structure in list InfoPath form .
Please mark answer , if you think answer is helpful or correct.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to use repeating control in InfoPath List Form.
To submit data to a SharePoint list from an InfoPath form, you could create a
SharePoint List form template that allows multiple items to be submitted.

How to publish infopath list form changes from one environment to another

How can we move InfoPath customized list form changes from one environment to another example Development environment to UAT environment? We can save that as source file and update url on the .xsn file. But is there any other way we can do it?
Rajasekar A.C

Hi,
You can save the list as template in source environment. Download the template for List Templates, upload in the same location in Destination site. The customized infopath should go with it. Let us know if that doesnt work.
