Item title won't show in Content Search Web Part

Hi,
I am trying to show news items from one site on another site. I can show all attributes so far, except for the title.
The field name of the title in the news item is 'title'.
In crawled properties, I have linked the title to Title, RefinableString00 and RefinableString12.
But the title either displays DispForm.aspx as a title (when I select title), or nothing (when I select the mapped property RefinableString00 or RefinableString12).
What can/should I do to show the title field?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that Item title did not show in Content Search Web Part.
You need to open the webpart either in SP designer or visual studio or as matter of fact in Notepad and search for the special property. And then add your list columns which you wants to display.

How to retrive latest items from different site collection using content search web part

I have a web application that contains two site collections(team site + enterprise wiki), with the following URLs:-
-http://applicationname/teamsite
-http://applicationname/enterprisewik
Now I need to display the latest 10 wiki pages that are inside the enterprise wiki site collection (according to the modified date) inside the team site. So I read that using Content search web part allows for cross-site content query.
So I added a new content search web part , inside my team site, and I click on “change query” button. But I am not sure how I can reference the enterprise wiki site collection's library and to specify that I need to get the latest 10 wiki pages using the
content search web part's query dialog box? Can anyone advice please ?
Thanks

Edit the webpart and click change query in search criteria. click on switch to advanced mode and enter your path:
(path:"http://applicationname/teamsite" OR path:"http://applicationname/enterprisewik")
you can specify sorting by created date and click ok. in number of items to show, type 10. this should fulfill your requirement.
For further reading, here are some links:

Using Content search web part to retrieve items from another site collection

I have a web application that contains two site collections(team site + enterprise wiki), with the following URLs:-
-http://applicationname/teamsite
-http://applicationname/enterprisewiki
Now I need to display the latest 10 wiki pages from the enterprise wiki site collection(according to the modified date) inside the team site. So I read that using Content search web part allow for cross-site content query. Currently I added a new content
search web part , inside my team site, and I click on “change query” button. But I am not sure how I can reference the enterprise wiki site collection's wiki page library and to specify that I need to get the latest 10 wiki pages , inside the following dialog:-
Basically this setting partially worked for me, I provide the following settings inside the “Build Your Query” dialog:-
From the “Select a Query” I defined the following:- “items matching content type(system).”
Restrict by app : “Do not restrict results by app”
Restrict by content type “Enterprise Wiki Page”.
This showed all the sites, lists and even pages are based on the “Enterprise Wiki Page” content type. But I am facing these three problems:-
1. The above setting showed only the sites,lists and pages matching the “Enterprise Wiki Page” content type, that exists on another web application, and not that exists inside the current web application.
2. To test the web part , I got the following results, But I was not able to add additional info for the items such as created by, modified by ,etc.
3. Also there is no way to sort the wiki pages by the modified date, as in the Sorting tab inside the “Build Your query” dialog I cannot find the “modified” inside the Soft by list
So can anyone advice how to fix these three problems

Hi,
1. In "Build Your Query" dialog, we can select "Specify a URL" in
Restrict by app and enter another site URL.
2. If you want to add more information for the items, we need customize the display template, the following link for your reference:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/sharepoint_quick_reads/archive/2013/08/01/sharepoint-2013-customize-display-template-for-content-by-search-web-part-cswp-part-1.aspx
3. In the Sorting tab, we can use "LastModifiedTime" to instead of "Modified".

Using term set as refiner in content search web part does not show all used terms

When you create a terms set (12 terms with +/- 10-20 child terms) , attach it to a site column and allow multiple values to be selected the search service does not find all used values in the REFINERS tab of the content search web part.
Example:
Field ‘Tags’ is the term set which can be refined. We want to do this in the REFINERS tab of the content search web part.
Tags is containing following fields:
•Course document
•Poster
•ALS
•Before
•During
•CPR/AED I
In all libraries we used +/- 15 different tags already.
Example of a tag field in the library: "Poster;ALS;Belgium"
The problem is we can’t see all of the used tags in the refiners tab when you open it for the first time. (You can see Belgium or Cyprus is not in the list of tags.)
When you select one tag and add it as a refiner, the others eventually do show up. But never all of them together. It’s like he is only showing the most used (and maybe first selected?) tags first. I also think he might be having some trouble
with multi value selections in the tag field.
Does anyone else have the same issue as we do? And is there a solution already?

Hi Sasha,
According to your description, my understanding is that all the used terms cannot display in the Refiners in Content Search web part.
If the results display in the Search Result Preview, then the terms used in these results can be displayed in the Refiners tab.
I tested the same scenario per your post, and when I first opened it I can view all the terms which were used in the search results listed under owsmetadatafacetinfo.
I recommend to do a full crawl and then you can view all the terms used in the search results are displayed under owsmetadatafacetinfo.
Best regards.
Thanks

Content Search Web Part with Hover Panel - Problem with positioning with css

Hi guys!
I´m having trouble with positioning the hover panel for the Content Search Web Part.
I used
this article to help me with luck as far as to the positioning. I´ve tried some inline styling but maybe my knowledge in css is no good enough here.
Here´s a screenshot from how this looks like. The hover panel generates a gap between the result items, the same height as the hover panel:

Hi Victoria!
No the gap comes without any inline css added from me. I´ve tried some inline styling, like z-index and position.
So, any ideas are welcome.
Here´s how my Display Template looks like:

<div id="RC_CustomerDocuments">

Content Search Web Part Has No Results

Hello,
I have been working on a site for a few weeks now and have been trying to make a simple Image Slider. I have found many tutorials and all are helpful -- except I get stuck at the same part every time. I am trying to use a Content Search Web Part in order
to pull images from a library/list and display them. I go through almost the same instructions every time but my query never shows any results.
I have went in to 'Change Query' and set the following:
Select a query: Pictures (System)
Restrict By App: Specify a URL --> Then changed to mysite/myimagelibrary
I have tried a few things. I have changed the Result Source to multiple different things, including the default 'Recently Changed Items.' I have also tried to put the images in a list rather than a Picture Library. I have also tried MANY different ways of
putting in the 'specific URL.'
I don't know why I can't seem to get results from my query. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,According to your post, my understanding is that you used a Content Search Web part to search images from a library/list , it didn’t display any
Results.
Please check which content type you used for these images . Maybe its content type is document rather than picture. Please make sure your images’ content type is picture.
You can go in to 'Change Query' and set the following:
Select a query: Items matching a content type(System)
Restrict by App: Current site
Restrict by content type: Picture
As you have mentioned in your description “Specify a URL --> Then changed to mysite/myimagelibrary”.
Here is a similar issue, you can use as a reference:

Content Search web Part on Variations label ?

Hello Experts,
I have set up Variations in SharePoint 2013 and its working fine. As of now I have only one Label and in Variations Settings I have selected to "Update web part changes to target web pages when Variations source page is updated".
On Source Label , I added a Content Search Web Part (CSW) to pull the items from a list that is on the top level ( root of the site collection so that query will remain same on all labels), working fine , Now i go to my target site and sync with source and
it is synced successfully. I can see the CSW was also update on the target page but it says "sorry something went wrong". when I edit CSW on the target site , search query from source is also present and it works fine in edit mode when I click on
Test query button , but when I save it or publish target site web part shows same error again" sorry something went wrong" .
Is there some settings missing?
Can someone please confirm if CSW works with variations on labels ?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Resolution : Issue was resolved after creating folder in "Language files" library as mentioned in the link below.
http://richardstk.com/2014/11/18/sharepoint-2013-content-search-web-part-one-or-more-of-the-following-resource-files-failed-to-load/
Still trying to figure out why this happens , every time I create a new label I have to go and create folder manually and paste "CustomStrings.js" file in it. any body knows ??
Thanks.

Content Search Web Part and Managed Property

Do I have to have cross-site collection publishing feature turned on for the Content Search Web Part to show a managed property?
I have a list and a column in that list called Colors. I created a managed property out of the crawled property for Colors column. On a page within the same site-collection, I added a content search web part (displays items from the earlier list) and
trying to display the managed property for Colors to show up for each of the items. For some reason, Colors value is not being displayed for the items.
Any ideas?

Thanks, Peter, appreciated. Here is my problem:
I created a site column and added it to the list. Added an item that has a value for this site column. System automatically generated a crawled property for the site column and also a managed property. Do I still have to perform step # 5 from above?
Now when I go into the content search web part and change the query to use this managed property as a refiner, it does not work.
I will try the debugging as you suggested.
In the meanwhile, Please let me know if you know of anything wrong I am doing.
UPDATE: I debugged it using IE Dev. Toolbar and the value for that managed property is being returned as null. What could be going wrong? How can I further troubleshoot this problem?

Content Search Web Part displaying wrong Results for anonymous Users.

HI Forum Group,
I am getting Wrong results for my content search web part. The requirement is to show the News Description for the selected news item.
I have a catalog site which stores News like
News1
News2
News3
as Items. and i have connected this catalog in publishing site which is anonymous. In the publishing site created one page "News.aspx"added search results webpart which shows all the news item. Added one page "Description.aspx" to show
description to show the selected news item.
When ever user selects any news from news.aspx page it will redirected to description.aspx with the selected item ID
The "Description.aspx" the search results page gets the data based on the URL by QueryString parameter as shown below
The problem is, if i multiple items to open in tabs all the items are showing the data same as the first selected item, though the article ID is different.
Thanks

Content Search Web Part - Sorting not working

I recently tried the new Content Search Web Part for which i see tremendous potential. I wanted to use it to show a certain type of pages and that was not a problem (i added a url as the source where i got the pages from). I mapped the correct fields so
that it showed image, title and modified date. I then tried the advanced mode and told it to sort by the modified date, however any way I tried to apply this sort it just would not save my settings and reverted back to the default sorting. Is there anything
else you need to do to get Sorting to work?
/Anders

I hadn't tried looking with REST, but that's a good suggestion.
In the interim, I found this on TechNet:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj679902.aspx#BKMK_MapCPtoRefinableMP<o:p></o:p>
When you search for a crawled property, you may find two crawled properties
that represent the same content. For example, a site column of type Text named
Color will during crawl discover two crawled properties: ows_Color and
ows_q_TEXT_Color. Crawled properties that begin with either ows_r<four
letter code>, ows_q<four letter code>, or ows_taxId are automatically
created crawled properties. When you select a crawled property to map to a
refinable managed property, make sure that you don't map the automatically
created crawled property. Instead, always map the crawled property that begins
with ows_.
So clearly (as clearly as the doc makes it) I need to use ows_ArticleStartDate. I've made sure that crawled property is the one I'm using, but I'm still not seeing any effect.
As for the sorting model, that only seems to be relevant for Rank sorting, right?

Latency in upload of content search web part

Hi,
We have a customer who use sharepoint which is adjasted to mobile, and it seems that when user access in vpn or mobile - it takes too much time till web parts are loaded. These are Content Search web parts that display pictures.
Is there any setting to do so the web part will load even if shows nothing and then execute the query and show the items( pictures)?
If blob cache is executed - it solve the latency but then there is another problem: it shows a part of a picture
keren tsur

Hi,
You can add the query parameter in the content search web part as shown in the below screenshot. "MyParameter1" is the parameter you will be passing from the URL.
Please mark it answered, if your problem resolved.

Does the Target Audiences setting work for Content Search Web Part Snippets?

I am attempting to create a page layout in SharePoint 2013 that contains a Content Search Web Part snippet.
I only want the CS Web Part to appear for certain users in a defined SP Group.
I set the Target Audience property during the generation of the snippet.
Unfortunately, the target audience property does not affect the appearance of the web part.
It appears all the time, even when the current user is not a member of the named SP group.
Here is my snippet, the group I am targeting in called "US Region":
