Problem with custom page layout

Hi,
I had created a page layout and deployed it.
And created a layout for it in the Portal content.
When i am trying to create page i can't able to see my page layout.
Here i can only see the default layouts.
What should be done to make my page layout visible in the page creation wizard.
Thanks in advance,
Mr.Chowdary

Hi,
have you set your PCD-Layout's wthin the PCD to be a Template?
(Category Info, Object is a Template = Yes)
Hope it helps ...

Custom Master Page with Custom Page Layout

Hi All,
I have created a Custom SharePoint Master Page. In that Master Page I have created a custom Header & Footer. In between the header and the footer I created a space to put page's content.
However I have created a page using that master page and it was successfully published.
After that I wanted to create a Custom Page Layout using that Page previously created. That also was a successful one. But when default Page Layouts in SharePoint 2013 inserted to a page it shows an area that can add content. But in my Page Layout inserted
to a page it does not show like that.
So what have I missed when I created the Custom Page Layout? Could you kindly someone tell me how to solve this matter?
Thanks and regards,
Chiranthaka

Can you confirm that your custom page layout has the same WebPart Zones as the default one? They need to be if you wish to see content that was added with the default page layout.

Creating publishing page in specific folder and with custom page layout using JSOM

Hi!
I have a site collection under my root, in which I have a page library with a folder inside. I want to create a publishing page inside the folder using JSOM. The API provides the following information on the three possible ways of how you can create a publishing
page.
PublishingPageInformation with all defaults.
PublishingPageInformation.Name and PublishingPageInformation.PageLayoutListItem.
PublishingPageInformation.Name, PublishingPageInformation.PageLayoutListItem and PublishingPageInformation.Folder.
Source - SP.Publishing.PublishingPageInformation Properties (sp.publishing)
Since I want to create the page in a specific folder in the page library, I have to go for the last option.
I have a function call chain that look as follows:
getLanguageID(webUrl, languageID)
.then(function(resolveVal) {
language = resolveVal;
return checkPageExist();
.then(getEditorialNewsFolderJSOM)
.then(getAssociatedPageLayoutListItem)
.then(addPublishingPage)
The first two methods,
getEditorialNewsFolderJSOM
getAssociatedPageLayoutListItem
fetches the required data as SP.Folder- and SP.ListItem-objects.
The problem occurs when
addPublishingPage
is called. This method, in turns calls this function.
var pageInfo = new SP.Publishing.PublishingPageInformation();
pageInfo.set_name(publishPage.title);
pageInfo.set_pageLayoutListItem(pageLayoutListItem);
pageInfo.set_folder(editorialNewsFolder);
pageCreationContext.newPage = pubWeb.addPublishingPage(pageInfo);
clientContext.load(pageCreationContext.newPage);
clientContext.executeQueryAsync(function() {
publishPage.isPageCheckOut = true;
resolve();
}, function(error) {
reject(precio.intranet.resource.errCreateContent_addPublishPage);
The error happens when this function is called with the page information object.
SP.Publishing.PublishingWeb.addPublishingPage(pageInformation)
Error:
Cannot read property '$2t_0' of undefined
and it happens in SP.Runtime.js.
I've tried this
sample code from the MSDN-team, and added the pagelayout and folder properties, but it renders the same error.
Creating a page directly in the page library with a blank SP.PublishingPageInformation object works perfectly fine!
What could possibly be wrong? The error isn't something that I can debug myself since it happens in SP.Runtime.js, and the documentation for this is very sparse!
Any help on how to resolve this issue would be helpful!

Page size printing problems with custom page size I created

I have created a custom page size (very small) for printing an advertise I had to print, and now after that operation all the pages I ask to print to any printer are automatically printed in that setup, and sometimes even if I change to A4 manually, the page changes but the borders of the page still remain the old one (result i can not print). How can I cancel the custom page size I created, so that my printers restart to print automatically in A4?
thank you very much

Well, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542
If someone knows how to fix this and make firefox launch normally, please reply! Thank you

Adding validation to custom page layout with taxonomyfieldcontrol

Hi we have a publishing site template with various custom page layouts. When in edit mode, we need to add some validations to the taxonomyfieldcontrols. What the best approach to do that?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add some validations to the TaxonomyFieldControl.
We can use the
TaxonomyFieldControl.validate method to ensure that all taxonomy data is valid.
To use the built-in taxonomy controls of SharePoint 2010 your best choice might be to go with the
TaxonomyWebTaggingControl.
This is the class the field control of the TaxonomyField,
TaxonomyFieldControl itself uses internally to render its content, although it does not expose the full capability of the control.
There are two articles about the TaxonomyWebTaggingControl
, you can have a look at them.

Error in using Custom Page Layout

Hi all,
I have created some customs page layouts, and they are working fine in the Portal (EP 6.0 SP2).
Now I have imported them to another Portal (same version than the first one), I made an EPA pakage with the PCD objects for the new page layouts and deployed the PAR file containing the the JSP for the new layouts into the Portal.
The result of this is the following:
- I am able to create a page and choose one of my customs layouts as a default layout.
- When in the page I try to select 'Edit > Page Layout' I get a 'Portal runtime error', and in the page logger I see the following exception (see it copied below):
Am I missing any step in the transport? I think no but maybe there is something else I have to do.
Thank you very much in advanced and regards

Hi Krishna,
I've been able to solve my problem.
It was something wrong when transporting the page Layouts with an EPA package from one Portal to another. Some properties were lost.
What I've done is to recreate manually the page layouts PCD Objects. And all it's working OK

How to set tray's background image in the custom page layout?

Hi all,
I've developed custom page layout with custom iView tray implementation. I've applied my layout into my page and added some iViews. Those iViews are URL isolated so they are rendered as an iframe. My problem is that an iframe background containing iView content overcast my background image which I have set in my iView tray implementation. Is it possible to set transparent background for an iframe in this scenario?
I would be grateful for helpful answers.
Best Regards,
Michał M.

Hi Tamil,
That's right, I've already used layout tag library do develop custom tray design but my problem concerns iView's isolation method . URL isolation renders iView's content in an iframe which has its own background. I've read some articles about getting transparent iframes but I'm not sure how could I achive this in SAP EP? Is it possible?
Best Regards,

Social comment control in custom page layout stucks at "Working" for read access users

Hi,
I created a custom page layout which is attched to my custom content type.
i have a custom field control which is derived from RichImageField.
i have also added a social comment control to the page layout using
<SharePointPortalControls:SocialCommentControl ID="SocialCommentControl1" runat="server" />.
Now the problem is, an user who have read access for a pages library should post comments. but its not working and when the user clicks post button it stucks at working. but when the user is given contribute access then it works and the comments are posted.
And one more thing is if i remove my custom field control from the page layout, then user with read access can post the comment without any issues.
i am sure the issue is caused by my custom field control but dont know how to solve it. i dont want to give contribute access to the users as they can edit the content of the page also. Any help would be appreciated.
This is the custom field control code.

Custom Page layout and related tmp files causing issues

Hello,
I am trying to create custom page layouts using Design Manager and then editing the html file using a text editor.
I have created a content type (inherited from Page content type) and used this content type for my page layout. I used the snippet manager to add relevant webpart zones and snippets I needed and published the page layout. Under status it shows conversion
successful but I can see another file with similar name to my page laout but with ~RF119c862.TMP being created.
Even if I publish my page layout my webparts (via snippets I added) doesn't reflect in the page. I checked the preview of my page layouts and webparts appear when it is in draft mode but the moment I publish it loses all snippets (webparts).
I checked the html even after the page layout is published and I can see all webpart zones, my divs and snippet code there, somehow once I publish it the corresponding aspx page doesn't get updated.
Has anybody come across this before, I'm trying this on Office 365 tenant site.
Regards,
Manoj
-- The opinions expressed here represent my own and not those of anybody else -- http://manojvnair.blogspot.com

I have seen a similar problem on-prem when a client had distributed cache misconfigured, but as your problem is with SPO, I doubt that is the problem.
Try creating another page layout but keep its associated content type untouched. Try adding snippets and such, publish and see what happens. If that works, then there must be something wrong with your custom content type.
Also, when you save a change to your .html page layout, open its associated aspx page layout in SPD and see if your changes were reflected there as well. As soon as your edit a html page layout and save your changes, SharePoint should automatically update
your aspx page layout right away.

Custom Page Layout Columns Fail to Appear Outside Preview

I created a custom page layout (jsp) in the Netweaver Developer Studio and used it as a template to create a page. The page layout has 7 containers/columns. When I create a page using that template and view the page object's layout, everything looks fine, and once I've assigned an iView to each column and preview the page, it looks good too - all iviews are there. When I assign it to a role and preview the page from there, it also looks fine.
However, here is the problem: when I navigate to the role on the portal to view the page, the last (bottom) two iviews fail to appear, as if those iviews or columns were never assigned.
Is this a problem with having too many columns in a page layout? Has anyone had this problem before?
I tried deleting columns 4 and 5 in the page layout so that there were only 5 columns total (but the last two were the same last two from before), and that worked perfectly well. When I added just one more, things got messed up again. Please help.

Just an update...
When I create a 1 column (full width) page (not using a custom page layout or anything), and then add the problem page I was talking about above to this 1 column page (via deltaLink), and add this new page to the role, the new page displays the custom page perfectly, just as the preview shows. The old page still refuses to display the last two columns (unlike its preview), but they appear in the old page WITHIN the new page. I don't know why this is.
Mainly for curiosity but also because I do not necessarily wish to use this solution (I will need to create many pages and this will double the number of pages to create), I would appreciate it if people could continue to offer suggestions.
Thanks!

Custom page layouts for iPhoto books- bleeds and type

I've been digging through the forum for info on creating custom page layouts. I have the basics: print PDF (to capture the page BG and graphics elements), manipulate in PhotoShop and place the custom page as a full page photo.
How does iPhoto deal with bleeds? Since I'm trying to recreate the style of the other pages I'd like it to match.
Is all type in an iPhoto book rasterized? The printed PDF retains type. Will rasterized type in PS layouts match "native" text in iPhoto?
I haven't purchased a book yet and I'm wondering if the book is sent to Apple as a PDF with vector data. If that's the case can custom pages be inserted into the PDF with vector type intact?
Thanks all!

gatz:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I don't know much about bleeds but you can manipulate it in the iPhoto preference file with Pref Setter.
Regarding the rasterized type, you'll have to give it a try and then create a pdf of the book to check it out. In iPHoto 5 we used to be able to get a copy of the pdf file that was uploaded to Apple but in V6 that's not possible. I think the pdf file may be the same as we get when creating it via Print to PDF. Here's the info I received from Apple about book quality and materials:
I contacted Apple and asked for information that I could pass on. Here's the reply I received from Apple:
"Thank you for contacting the Apple Print Products Customer Service.
I understand that you would like to know the printing process that is used and the color mode the files should be in, so you can better advise users in the iPhoto forum.
iPhoto version 4 or later, allows you to import and print files through the Apple Print Product service as RGB, grayscale, or CMYK color space. JPEG files with RGB color space are recommended for best results.
While iPhoto 2 can import files of various formats, including RGB color, grayscale, and CMYK, this version requires JPEG files with RGB color space when printing photos and books.
For more information regarding iPhoto 2, please visit the following article:
iPhoto: Color, Black and White Prints Appear Garbled or Distorted
For more information regarding iPhoto 5, please visit the following article:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=165501
Here are some of the technical specifications for the books, cards, and calendars. I hope this gives you an idea about their quality and form.
BOOKS
All iPhoto books are printed using acid-free paper for long-lasting image quality. The photos are printed at a high resolution (300DPI if you use iPhoto 6). There is no external modification--such as sharpening or contrast adjustment--of the photos; what you see in the application is what is printed in the book.
Hardcovers Books
The cover is hard-bound and covered in linen. You select the linen color during the book-ordering process. The hardcover books have a solid, stiff binding that is glued and crimped. The internal pages, measuring 8.5 x 11 inches, are printed on McCoy 100# Text Gloss paper stock.
Softcover Books
The softcover books come in three sizes:
- Large 8.5 x 11 inches
- Medium 6 x 8 inches
- Small 2.6 x 3.5 inches
All of the softcover books have internal pages that are printed on McCoy 100# Text Gloss paper stock. The large softcover book has a white cover (Kromekoteplus Folding Cover, 16 point) with a cutout on the front that reveals the cover-page photo in the book. The covers for the medium and small softcover books have the cover image and title printed directly on the cover. All of the softcover books have a glued binding and feature a thick cover of McCoy 100# Cover Gloss paper stock.
CARDS
All cards are printed on McCoy 120# Silk Cover paper stock. The postcards measure 4 x 6 inches, and the greeting cards measure 5 x 7inches.
CALENDARS
All calendars measure 8 x 10 inches and are printed on McCoy 100# Silk Cover paper stock.
To ensure the best print quality, we have chosen to use Kodak NexPress technology. The press uses a dry toner, which is fused to the surface of the paper. Please see NexPress' site for more information:
KODAK NEXPRESS 2500 Digital Production Color Press
I hope you find this information helpful in answering questions on the iPhoto forum."
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Custom control in custom page layout not getting shown

Hi,
I have created a site column for Date field:
<Field ID="{GUID}" Name="MyCustomPageLayoutDate" StaticName="MyCustomPageLayoutDate" Group="TestGroup" Type="DateTime" Format="DateOnly" DisplayName="Date" Required="FALSE" ><Field ID ="{guid}" Name ="MyCustomLayoutDateDisplay" DisplayName="Date Display"
         Group="TestGroup"
         Type="Calculated"
         ResultType="Text"
         ReadOnly="TRUE"
         Required="FALSE">
    <Formula>=TEXT([Date],"MMMM dd, yyyy")</Formula>
</Field>
This is added in the page layout content type:
<FieldRef ID="{guid}" Name="MyCustomPageLayoutDate" /> <FieldRef ID="{guid}" Name ="MyCustomLayoutDateDisplay" />
In the custom page layout, it is added as below:
<Publishing:EditModePanel ID="EditModePanel5" runat="server" CssClass="edit-mode-panel">
<tr>
<td>
Date
</td>
</tr>
</Publishing:EditModePanel>
<PublishingWebControls:EditModePanel ID="DateEditModePanel" runat="server" PageDisplayMode="Edit" SupressTag="True">
<tr>
<td >
<PageFieldDateTimeField:DateTimeField ID="DateTimeField1" FieldName="GUID" runat="server">
</PageFieldDateTimeField:DateTimeField>
</td>
</tr>
</PublishingWebControls:EditModePanel>
<PublishingWebControls:EditModePanel ID="DatePublishModePanel" PageDisplayMode="Display" runat="server">
<tr>
<td>
<SharePoint:CalculatedField ID="CalculatedDateField" FieldName="guid" runat="server" />
</td>
</tr>
</PublishingWebControls:EditModePanel>
In the edit mode, the date is getting shown, and I am able to select a date. When the page is published, the entered date is not getting displayed.
How to fix this?
Thanks

Hi,
I tried to reproduce this issue like this:
1. Create a DateTime site column “MyDateTimeCol01”;
2. Create a Calculated site column “MyCalculated03” with formula “=TEXT(MyDateTimeCol01,"MMMM dd, yyyy")”;
3. Create a Page Layout content type contains the two site columns above;
4. Create a Page Layout with the Page Layout content type, the source code of this page layout as below:
<asp:Content ContentPlaceholderID="PlaceHolderMain" runat="server">
<PublishingWebControls:EditModePanel runat=server id="EditModePanel1" PageDisplayMode="Edit">
<SharePointWebControls:DateTimeField FieldName="9492c1ff-851f-4d1c-bcbf-5637b69ebd63" runat="server"> </SharePointWebControls:DateTimeField>
</PublishingWebControls:EditModePanel>
<br/>
<PublishingWebControls:EditModePanel runat=server id="EditModePanel2" PageDisplayMode="Display">
date time text:
<br/>
<SharePointWebControls:CalculatedField FieldName="9c00c4dc-6a53-4abd-9fa4-6b4dd266c898" runat="server"></SharePointWebControls:CalculatedField>
</PublishingWebControls:EditModePanel>
</asp:Content>
5. After that, create a publishing page with this custom page layout:
In Edit mode:
In Display mode:
I suggest you follow the steps above to make another test to see if the issue persists.
Thanks

Multiple Page Contents Page Fields In Custom Page Layout SP2013

I'm rather new so bare with me. I'm trying to add multiple page content page fields with snippets to a custom page layout html file in SP2013 Designer. Once I add the snippet and publish, I review the page and any text written
in the last created page content box saves for both page content boxes instead of saving unique text in both. How do you change the snippets to where they are unique snippets and won't be referenced as the same one?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
SP2013Newbie
