How to develop a solution for news web part to not cut off words when displayed on a page?

Hello,
I am not sure where to turn to, but I have a web part on a SharePoint 2013 page where it displays news and announcement items. 4 lines of text are displayed, but words are cut off. For example:

Is there a way to not have SharePoint cut off words and display the whole word before it adds the ... and the end of text?
Is there a third party web part that does a better job at displaying news?
Thanks,

What's New Web Part will not show updates from Team Discussion Web Part

I have a Team Discussion Web Part which I want to show in the "What's New" updates Web Part. I have indexed the "modified" column of the team discussion and added it as a target list for the What's new Web Part, however updates to the Team
Discussion are not showing up in the What's New Web Part.
If I happen to tell the What's New web part to "use the below person column as a filter" and choose "Modified By", the page will crash with an error stating that the What's New web part caused the failure.
Any suggestions?

Hi KinsDotNet,
According to your description, I could reproduce this issue.
The following alternative solution consists in using the " Team Discussion " web part (with a customized view) in place of the " What's New " web part.
Alternative solution steps:
1. Create an index on the “ Modified ” field of the “ Team Discussion ” library in the Site Collection page in which “ What’s New ” web part’s functionality is needed
2. Insert a “ Team Discussion ” web part in the same page and position where the “ What’s New ” web part was intended to be situated, or wherever it is needed
3. Click on the “ Save & Close ” icon to save the page with the new “ Team Discussion ” web part
4. Click on the “ Edit Web Part ” option in the “ Team Discussion ” web part’s context-menu and click on the “ Edit the current view ” link inside the “ List Views ” section of the web part’s settings box
5. Choose the desired display columns in the “ Columns ” section
6. Set the “ Sort ” and “ Filter ” sections settings according to the following screenshot:
7. In Step 6 , likely two identical “ Modified By ” options will be seen inside the “ Filter ” section’s “ when column ” drop-down.
Selecting the second of these two “ Modified By ” options will likely cause the “ Team Discussion ” web part to not work properly, so please make sure to select the first “ Modified By ” option. If, in the unlikely case, after selecting the
first “ Modified By ” option the “ Team Discussion ” web part does not render properly, go back and select the second “ Modified By ” option and the web part should render properly
8. In the “ Item Limit ” section, set the “ Number of items to display ” to the maximal amount of items you would like to be displayed inside the web part (for example: 5 )
9. Click the "OK" to save the settings

How do I set EchoSign for Sharepoint web part to only sync documents that have been sent from the same site?

Since EchoSign for Sharepoint (the web part) is basically worthless with any site over 2500 documents, we have broken up our sites so that the web part can successfully traverse the site without timing out. However, within the web part, there is an option (two green arrows) to synch with SharePoint. Unfortunately, users can sync any document from EchoSign to a SharePoint library. I dont want the users synching documents that dont belong in that library. Are there any settings or coding that will allow only the syncing, or actually auto sync the documents, to within the same site?

Hi Ben,
Please refer the doc: https://echosign.my.salesforce.com/sfc/p/#300000006IaDOWUzLXIiAnH9NO8_F9WhM_gpxBs
for EchoSign integration with Sharepoint.

Web Part is not visible in Web Part gallary

Hi,
I have developed a project in sharepoint having two web parts inside it.
Initially, when there was only one web part in my project it was working fine. But suddenly when i added a new web part, it is not showing me web parts in a gallary. Event it is not available in web part list under Web Designer Gallaries.
I tried with old .wsp to deployed, but still the same problem.
On my development machine it is working with two web parts very good. but when i try to deploy that wsp on production site, it is not showing me anything in web part gallary while it was when i was working with one web part only in my project.
Please, direct me where i am doing wrong, any possibilities?
I did workarounds as
1. Check for the custom webpart feature folder under 14\TEMPLATE\FEATURES ----- Yes it exists there
2. If the feature Scope is Site
3. The webpart dll is deployed to GAC with Stsadm command
4. No web part(My Custom) found here Site Action > Site Settings > Galleries > Web Parts

in my development environment i checked in site collection feature, it isn't available in site collection feature but still i am getting those web parts in web part gallery while adding it on page.
Also, in Production environment, feature is available in /templates/features folder after deployment, but not available in web part gallery while adding it on page.
I tried with uploading .webpart file which is available in /templates/features production environment as i mentioned, is running for one web part. Not for second web part and giving me security error.
As, uploading .webpart file is not feasible solution, please tell me how could i do that with .wsp file?
please tell me what could be another workaround.

Best practice to develop the news web part to retrieve news data across the farms

Hi,
We have developed the News Web part. The functionality it pulls the news from other SharePoint Farms and display it in the site. Currently we are using secure store service to to connect to different FARM to retrieve the news from that FARM.
The issue with this approach is that every time user hits the page it will always hit the Secure Store service.There are almost 80K users who will be using this web part. Moreover this web part connects to multiple sites for multiple news from different
division.What should be the best practice to develop such kind of web part without consuming the server resources and keep hitting the server till we get the new news.News does not change very often.
Regards
Rajaniesh

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to know which is the best way to handle the large complication of SharePoint cross farm retrieving data.
If you are developing the custom web part to retrieve data from other farm, I suggest you can firstly create a custom timer job to get data hourly in the backend and restore the data in a list. Then you can create a web part to link to the list to display
the data.
For cross farm accessing data, I suggest you can create a custom web service to achieve it.
Also, you can use ajax to display the web part data asynchronously. It will improve the performance and reduce the server pressure.
Here are some detailed articles for your reference:

How can I disable notification for new install update for adobe??

How can I disable notification for new install update for adobe (adobe reader, flash player, etc.)
Is there way from SCCM2012 or group policy or any easy way?????
Please help me

If you mean the built-in functionality of Adobe Reader and Adobe Flash, it's different mechanism for both.
For the reader, check this guide for example:
http://www.adminarsenal.com/admin-arsenal-blog/bid/84409/Adobe-Customization-Wizard-XI-Tutorial
For flash, check this guide for example:
http://jthys.wordpress.com/2012/07/07/disable-automatic-updates-for-adobe-flash-shockwave-player-reader/
After you've studied the above guides, you need to implement those to be used with ConfigMgr application deployment so that when you deploy Reader/Flash, you get the result you want = no automatic update functionality.

Views for list web parts. Is there a way to allow users to change the view for a list web part without being redirected?

Hi,
I added a list view web part into a SharePoint 2013 page and it is working as expected, except for one thing.
I have enabled the option for the user to change the view for the web part. However when the user changes it, the user is redirected away from the page containing the web part, to the URL of the list itself.
Is there a way to circumvent this issue so when the user selects a different view it updates the listing in the web part itself, rather than the user being redirected?
Thanks in advance for the help.
Regards,
P.

Hi,
Please understand that one page can only display one view. You could find it out by observing the Address in browser when switching among different views for a list.
If you would like to change the view of a list web part, you could go to web part propertites > Select view and configure it.
In addition, here is a thread with similar requirement that might help:

Issue while creating a new web part page (Safeunit.aspx) within a folder located under a Document Library.

Hi, I am facing an issue while creating a new web part page (Safeunit.aspx) within a folder (Safematic Seal Support Systems) located under a Document Library (Product Information Documents).
The path I am explaining:
Going to the Document Library (Product Information Documents) --> now inside that, clicking on a folder (Wet Seal Support
Systems) --> now inside the folder clicking on another sub-folder (Safematic Seal Support Systems) --> Here I want the web page Safeunit.aspx
Issue is that when I reach to the required destination, and want to create the web page by clicking on 'Site Action' --> 'Create' --> 'Web Part Page', now while selecting the Document Library name from the drop-down list, I do use 'Product
Information Documents' since the folder is inside this library only; but that create the page directly under the 'Product Information Documents' library, not under the sub-folder (Safematic Seal
Support Systems).
FYI, it is SP2007 version.
Kindly assist in this. Thanks in advance.

I see that you have the namespaces reference in your code.
I think you have changed the NameSpace name of your code to CreateSPFolder, change the reference in all your manifest, and other files to point to the current namespace name. It should help.
Hope this helps!

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,
Saranya

Hi 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:

Dundas Gauge for SharePoint web part

Hi,
I'm using the Dundas Gauge for SharePoint web part, it seems that I have to add a seperate web part for each and every guage that I want added to the page, this means that inside each web part I have to add the connection string details for the sql database to get the data for the guage.
If I have 20 guages on a sharepoint page, this means 20 connection strings, 20 hits on the db - it's not sounding good.
Has anyone had any experience of this or has any thoughts on the best way to integrate this?
Best Regards
Kieran

As long as the connection strings are the same connection pooling will probably be used (they could disable it if they wanted to but not very likely).
It could still be 20 seperate hits to the database though. If each gauge is looking at a seperate dataset then absolutely it would require a trip to make the query.
You should investigate if the controls support caching directly (very likely) and create a good caching strategy if you need 20 seperate query results on one page.

How to use time capsule for wireless back-up but not internet?

Hello,
I have a tower and recently a laptop at work. The tower is connected to our local network with an ethernet cable and the laptop with wireless. So, the internet connection is fine for both.
I was hoping to use my time capsule to do time machine backups on my laptop. Do you have any advice on how to configure this? I do not want to use the time capsule to extend my Internet, as I believe my work I.T. would prefer to handle all access to their network.
Perhaps there is some documentation about doing this that you could point me to? I have not been able to find it.
Thank you for your help.

Your original question was How to use Time Capsule for wireless back-up but not Internet?
There is no reason for you to connect the tower....or anything else...using Ethernet if your goal remains that same as you stated.
If you are asking if you can backup the Tower using Ethernet, and not wireless, then you can connect the tower to one of the LAN <-> ports on the Time Capsule....not the WAN port.
Yes, it appears to work without plugging into my tower.
Correct, it will work.
I just have to select the network that it created. Of course, I have no access to the Internet while this is happening and it can not auto backup, unless I am on that wireless signal.
As I stated, that is the downside to trying to back up without an Internet connection. You have to establish another network...and backup over that network.
If you are asking if you can stay connected to the work network while also backing up to your non-Internet "private" network, that is not possible.
