How to List view web part to display document library for only users with access permission

Hi
I am trying to accomplish this requirement but I don't know if that is possible or how to get there. Any suggestion or advice are helpful.
On a site collection, I have several document libraries, with each library have unique permission to a few user or SharePoint group.
I want to create a web part page and make that the site home page. On this web part page, I want to create a Content Search Web Part to list the content of the document library that the logged on users have permission to see.
Is this possible with CSWP or is there anything easier or if it is not possible at all, please advise.
Thanks
Swanl

Hi ,
Based on your description, my understanding is that you want to create a Content Search Web Part to list the documents that the logged on users have access permission.
It is feasible with CSWP, you can follow the below step:
Edit Content Search Web Part->Change query-> Select a query: Items matching a content type (System); Restrict by app: Current site collection; Restrict by content type: Document.

Using xsl stylesheet with List View Web Part to display custom text

Hi
i have an xsl stylesheet with sharepoint listview webpart. The list view shows some items based on a filter. I want to display custom text such as "No Items" when there are zero items in the list view using the xsl stylesheet. How do i achieve
this. I have spent hours searching but couldnt find the exact answer. Please help me out. I am a light user not a hard core developer so I dont use Visual Studio. Thanks in advance

Hi
I have customised the list view webpart using a custom xsl file by including it in the xsl link of the list view webpart. So i think i need to include the condition in the xsl file itself else it wont work. Since the list view webpart isnt using the default
xsl. Please let me kknow if you have any idea about including a condition in xsl to check if there are not items in view.
The code of the xsl is included below.

List View Web Part anonymous users paging is broken

Hi I checked that list view web part do not work for anonymous users with paging. wanted to check if its known bug or there is some intention to keep it like that.
Rohit Pasrija

Hi,
According to your description, there is an issue that if the paging is configured for a list view web part, it will be broken for anonymous users.
I tried to reproduce this issue with the steps below, however, all work without issue.
1. Enable anonymous access in Web Application level;
2. Enable anonymous access in site collection level;
3. By default, the permission settings of a list inherit the permissions from its parents, that’s say, anonymous access also enabled in the current list, “Anonymous
Users” can “View Items”;
4. Set paging for the “AllItems” view, add this list as a web part into a page, the paging works as expected for anonymous users.
I suggest you create a new Web Application and configure to enable anonymous access following the steps above to see if the issue still exists.
Thanks

ECT List View Web Part displaying incorrect data when View Item

I have a External Content Type which pulls data from a stored procedure. The stored procedure has 1 parameter - the users logon id. The data retrieved is a list of meetings with start date time, end date time, location, subject, etc. From this ECT there
is an External List which displays all data correctly.
There is 2 pages within the site and its subsites that have list view web parts which display a subset of the info from the external list. When the user clicks a specific meeting to display the complete info on the meeting, the wrong information is displayed,
it always displays the info for the 1st meeting in the list. So, I displayed the BDC Identity field on the list and this field is identical for all the rows since the key for the ECT is the username and hence not unique.
I've spent all day trying to finding a way to resolve this and have come up empty. I've tried to find a way to make the BDC Identity field to be unique, using Business Data View web part, Data View web part, and nothing.
The user needs to be able to click the My Meetings url header on the above pages to see a full list of their meetings so I need the external list. Any ideas how to make the BDC Identity field unique or how to get the View Item on the List View web part to
work correctly?

Sorry, I do not understand what you mean.
I resolved the non unique BDC Identity problem by simply adding the row # to the Username in the stored procedure so the BDC Identity fields on the list records are now unique (although they're really long ie. __bk44003500070057003700560027000200140037003700f600360096001600470056003300,
__bk44003500070057003700560027000200140037003700f600360096001600470056004300 etc). Not sure how it generates the BDC Identity?
I still see the same behaviour when you select a meeting to display the details. It always displays the 1st record in the list.
I added code to the DispForm to display the ID when the page loads and the BDC Identity from the record and verfied that they do match.
I can add another parameter to the stored procedure and just return the row # in that field. What do you mean by make the identifire as Identity in operations?

Hide footer in List View web part

I've created a custom content type for a custom list (News stories.) I can add the custom list to my page as a list view web part and display only the latest article, but it also displays "1-1" at the bottom of the web part. I'm able to cycle through
the news stories by hitting "1-1" (changes to "2-2", etc...), but I'd like to have the option of taking it out completely.

Found how to remove header as well.

List View Web part not showing all available views for list

We have added a list view web part to a page, and we get the "Current View" link in the web part...which is configurable when modifying the actual web part.
What we'd like to see (instead of having to click the ellipses button/context menu to get the other views) is the views displayed horizontally like when you are viewing the list itself.
When viewing the list itself, we see "All Items" "View 1" "View 2", etc.
Is this possible in the list view web part to display all available views in a horizontal/breadcrumb layout? Please advise.

The below works via alert, just need to now assign data to a <DIV> or element for display.
Trying this in simple webpart code snippet to get back all views:
    <script>
    var viewCollection = null;
        function runCode() {
            var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
            if (clientContext != undefined && clientContext != null) {
                var web = clientContext.get_web();
                var listCollection = web.get_lists();
                var list = listCollection.getByTitle("MyListName");
                this.viewCollection = list.get_views();
                //var viewInfo = new SP.ViewCreationInformation();
                //viewInfo.set_title('MyView');
                //this.viewCollection.add(viewInfo);
                clientContext.load(this.viewCollection);
                clientContext.executeQueryAsync(Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQuerySucceeded), Function.createDelegate(this, this.onQueryFailed));
        function onQuerySucceeded() {
            var viewInfo = 'Tasks list current views: \n\n';
            var viewEnumerator = this.viewCollection.getEnumerator();
            while (viewEnumerator.moveNext()) {
                var view = viewEnumerator.get_current();
                viewInfo += view.get_title() + '\n';
            alert(viewInfo);
        function onQueryFailed(sender, args) {
            alert('Request failed. ' + args.get_message() + '\n' + args.get_stackTrace());
    </script>
    <a onclick='return runCode();'>Click here</a>

XSLT List View Web Part Error when Using Group By

I have a Tasks List created a tasks list in SharePoint. The Tasks (normal OOTB template) list works fine in the normal view, however, I have created an XSLT ListView Web Part that points to this tasks list. When I set the web part to display
a view with a "Group By" rule, it returns an error:
"Attempted to use an object that has ceased to exist. (Exception from HRESULT:
0x80030102 (STG_E_REVERTED))
The list has just over 1000 items and the threshold is set to 5000, I have tried indexing the column that I am "grouping by" just in case and that has not worked.
Has anyone experienced this issue before? If so, what steps can be done to display the XSLT List View Web Part properly?

Thank you for the response. I tried the above link and it didn't seem to solve the issue; in fact, when I clicked on Common Control Tasks there wasn't any Data View Tasks such Filter and Sort & Group.
Perhaps some more information would shed light on a solution. I created a list template including content of the task list in question. I was able to display the new list in an XSLT List View Web part with grouping enabled. However, I noticed that
the "Related Content" column was completely empty (it was there, it just had no data in each row). What is the source of this Related Content? I know it is a system column that appears when Workflows generate the item in the list but could it be the
reason for the Web part being unable to display with groupings?

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";

Display Calendar View in List View Web Part

We have a list and a calendar view of the list. I wanted to display the calendar view of the list in a List View Web Part in another page in the site.
When I select the 'Calendar View' from the Views drop-down - it does not work.
Please can you help.

Hi Aritra,
Is there some errors on your environment? So, you can have two workaround to do it.
You can use SharePoint designer to add an empty data view source on your page ,then select the page.
Use
Page viewer web part on your page, then put your calendar view web part page URL into your PVWP.
Thanks,

Items to display in list view web part not showing the items setup

Hi, I have the following issue. I have a list view web part, but the web part is showing more items that the ones setup in the: Number of items to display in list view web part for this view.
It is because that works when using datasheet view and not a normal view? Is there any technical documentation from Microsoft supporting this?

thank you for your answer. It is interesting that the mobile view with the items to show in the mobile view doesn't work in the webpart, but it works when you are using datasheet view, but if you uncheck to activate the mobile view, then, the webpart doesn't
show information, so, it works partially because one part works and not the other.

Missing views dropdown on list view web part.

I asked this before, and it got moved to "admin" with no replies. I really need to know this. I think it may be appropriate for design and customization, because I think that's what the solution may require. It doesn't appear to be an "admin" issue.
Any help will be gratefully received. I am very frustrated by this. The "View:" dropdown list on the right side of the list view web part for my document libraries is not available. The truly weird thing is that in a few cases, it is there, but I can't tell any difference between those web parts or DLs and the ones without the views drop-down. I have defined several public views for each document library. There are no "closed" web parts on the page (which was one suggestion I got).
I can't figure out why the views menu sometimes appears and sometimes does not, when there appears to be no way to control it. Can anyone enlighten me or suggest how I can make it appear? My users are threatening to demand a separate web part for each view (there are hundreds). I may have trouble using SPD on the client's site.

That works if the Web Part was Closed, but does not help if the user deleted the Web Part.
After some digging around in SharePoint Designer and in SharePoint itself, I have a solution for restoring the View dropdown after the out-of-the-box List View Web Part has been deleted. This solution can be accomplished without SharePoint Designer if you are working with a library, but to clean out the views from a list, you will need SharePoint Designer. I am doing this in MOSS 2007 SP1, but it should work for WSS 3.0 as well.
For this example, I am using a document library called Public Documents and my View is allitems.aspx, but this should work for any list or library.
Here are the steps for bringing back the View dropdown:
1.       Navigate to the list or library that is missing the View dropdown
2.       Go to Site Actions > Edit Page > Add a Web Part . In the Lists and Libraries section, check the box next to the Public Documents library and click the Add button.
3.       Within the new Web Part, go to edit > Modify Shared Web Part and change the Toolbar Type to “Full Toolbar”. Click the OK button.
4.       Click the link to Exit Edit Mode and you should have the Full Toolbar for the list/library displayed, but it is still missing the View dropdown menu.
5.       Go to Settings > Create View .
6.       Choose Standard View .
7.       Name the view, check the “Make this the default view” box, select the columns to include, and click the OK button.
8.       Voila, the View dropdown menu is back on the site.
9.       To completely clean it up, for a list, open in SharePoint Designer and delete the allitems.aspx view from the Forms folder. For a library, you can go to the Actions menu and select Open with Windows Explorer . Open the Forms folder (you may need to show hidden files to see this folder) and delete the allitems.aspx view. If you do not have access to SharePoint Designer and you are working in a list, you will need to delete the link on the Quick Launch and add again to point to your new view name.
10.   If the View you deleted was the default for the list or library, it may remove the link from the Quick Launch. It can be added again by going to View All Site Content , selecting the appropriate list or library, going into its Settings menu, and modifying the Title, description and navigation settings to show on the Quick Launch.

"Oslo.Master" set as the The default Master Page, but when record selected in "List View Web Part" page shifts to the right.

Hi All,
I have set "Oslo.Master" as the The default Master Page for the site. I have a page with a List View web part and an InfoPath Web Part connected. When the page loads is it displayed correctly. However, when a record
is selected and the infopath web part is updated, the content on the page shifts (indents) to the right.
Is there something I am missing? Does anyone know how to correct this?
Thanks in Advance!

Hi Dwayne,
I could reproduce this, as a workaround, we can use javascript code as below to hide the element in the following image.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#contentBox').prev().hide();
</script>

List view web part not reflecting changes made to list view in SharePoint Designer

Dear All,
When adding a list view web part containing a view modified in SharePoint designer (e.g. conditional formatting applied, or group headers modified) I'm finding that the changes made in SPD are not reflected in the web part.
For example, I go into SPD edit a view, and the view appears correctly when I go back into SharePoint, however when I link to the view within a list view web part it results in losing the changes made in SPD.
Becasue it's a publishing page I'm unable to edit the contents of the web part in SPD.
I'm sure this is expected behavior but how do I get around this?
Thnaks,
MDB
