Promoted Links app Behaviour=Dialog Question

Greetings all. I have an issue with the Promoted Links app.  Here is the situation:
Site Collection created as a Publishing Site
Home changed to Page Layout – Blank Web Part Page
Have a Promoted Links app (titled Networking Actions) that has 1 item in it. This item opens a custom list from the site in dialog (Launch Behavior = Dialog).
This action works fine if I just open the Networking Actions app from all site content and click on the tile (it opens the list in dialog).
I add the Networking Actions app to the home page in a web part zone.
I click on the tile to open the list, nothing happens and I get the lovely exclamation ERROR ON PAGE in the lower left hand corner.
I change the Launch Behavior to NEW TAB or IN PAGE NAVIGATION and it works fine from the home page.
All security for all items on the site is setup to inherit from the site. Doesn’t matter where the user account is setup (Owner, Member or Visitor) it still will not work when launched from the web part zone.
I’d appreciate any thoughts or suggestions.  The Promoted Links app is super great, unless the dialog isn’t going to work as advertised.

Hi ,
Promoted link webpart ,launch behavior is working fine in designer log in.
But for visitor sign in ,throws error
"sp.res.defaultdialogwidth is null or not an object ".
<script type="text/javascript">
if(typeof SP.UI.ModalDialog === 'undefined'){
    var script=document.createElement('script');
    script.setAttribute("type","text/javascript");
script.setAttribute("src", "https://cdn.sharepointonline.com/3820/_layouts/15/sp.ui.dialog.js");
    document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0].appendChild(script);
</script>
Above highlighted  url  error speciifies that url
"sp.res.defaultdialogwidth is null or not an object ".

  • Promoted Links Launch Behavior: Dialog

    When using the Promoted Links app, and using the Dialog launch behavior, every link I have tried returns an error.
    This does not happen with the other two launch behaviors, 'In page navigation and New tab'.
    I have tried opening several links that I know are good, including SharePoint pages. All work in every launch behavior except, 'Dialog'.
    Any idea why this is happening?

    Hi,
    Based on your description, I have done a test and I can ’t reproduce your issue.
    I created a Promoted Links list, when I added items, every launch behavior worked fine.
    Let’s verify the following:
    Whether the issue exists in the other sites of the same site collections.
    Whether the issue exists in the other sites of the different site collections.
    Whether the issue exists in the other sites of the different web applications.
    Done a test , compare the results.
    Change a user with full control  and done a test, compare the results.
    Besides, check the SharePoint ULS log located at : C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS to get a detailed error description.

  • Missing Promoted Links app in root site

    Hello All,
    I'm working on an Intranet site for my organization.
    It was created in SharePoint 2013 enterprise, with the site collection created using the publishing template.
    Under the root site, i have 8 subsites.
    In each of the subsites I can add the Promoted Links app by going to Settings >> Add an app.
    However, I do not see the Promoted Links app in my root site in Settings >> Add an app.
    Do I need to "enable" this app in my root site somehow? 
    Thanks in advanced.

  • Javascript - Promoted Links app - Create List programatically

    Greetings,
    I am in the middle of coding my SharePoint App to provision a site and add various lists. I have no issues adding a calendar or a document library but when I try to add a "promoted links" list I get an error saying Invalid
    list template.
    I have enabled publishing and also team collaboration features on the site.
    My code snippet looks like this, I removed some obvious lines to keep it simple.
    //This works fine
    createList(spweb, SP.ListTemplateType.events, 'TeamCalendar');
    //This doesn't work
    createList(spweb, 170, 'PromotedLinks');
    function createList(spWeb, listType,listTitle)
    var context = SP.ClientContext.get_current();
    var LCI = new SP.ListCreationInformation();
    LCI.set_title(listTitle);
    LCI.set_templateType(listType);
    context.executeQueryAsync();
    var list = spWeb.get_lists().add(LCI);
    context.load(list);
    context.executeQueryAsync(
    Function.createDelegate(this, function () {
    HandleSuccess();
    Function.createDelegate(this, function (sender, args) {
    HandleError();
    Does any one know the correct way of creating a Promoted links list?
    Thank you

    Hi Avni,
    I simply get an error saying Invalid list template.
    By the way the third parameter in just the name of the list that I want to give to my promoted links list. It doesn't matter what I provide there as long as it is a valid name.
    e.g.
    createList(spweb,170,'My
    Promoted Links List title');
    Also having looked at MSDN i couldn't find a templateid
    for promoted links list
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj245053(v=office.15).aspx
    But one of the blogs (link below) confirms that template
    id is correct

  • Promoted Links, can't edit the tile

    Happy New year!
    Discovered today the Promoted Link feature, put in png icons, working ok except one. And can't edit it.
    In the ITEMS tab I can click on "New Item" this opens the window to add another link/tile. But the "Edit Item" is greyed out. I don't know how to select the bad link/tile to be able to edit it. Or how to get to the window/list where I
    put in the 3 initial icons, 2 still work, the other can't edit.
    I am using SP Online, and it is my account as I am the admin. (just learning/playing with SP)
    The first time I deleted the app and started over, but now it's doing it again.
    How can I fix this?
    Pierre
    I just answered my own question, so will post this anyway, for others.

    I'm not sure what view you are using so I'll try my best the promoted links app is basically a share point list that hen you add to a page provides a nice way to display links . You should see the '...' These three dots represent more options if you select
    it and click edit item properties you will be able to edit the item If the view you are on is the thumbnail view switch it over to all items which will out it into a simple columns and rows type view which will allow you to so the more options on the items
    and edit the specific item itself.

  • SharePoint 2013 Promoted Links issue

    Hi,
     I am encountering an issue in which I need some input. This is a SharePoint 2013 environment and the issue is related to Promoted Links. The issue is that after 60 seconds the title on the promoted links disappear. Checking in developer tools, I notice
    that the div tag that houses the title information disappears also. I am attaching the images that depict the behavior. Any ideas will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi,
    We need more investigation for troubleshooting:
    Are you using OOB promoted links app in SharePoint 2013?
    Is there customization on the issue app? If so, how did you customize it?

  • Can you create two separate tile views for a Promoted Links List

    I have lots of pages on my site where i want the effect of the promoted links list tile view. However, i don't want the same links to show up on every spot i use it. Is there not a way to create separate tile views so you can create filtering conditions?
    Right now i am stuck having 5 separate lists with 5 items in each because of this limitation. Am i missing something? 
    I look forward to your responses.
    ~Zach

    There is an easy way to do this.
    Add columns to the Promoted Links list.
    Add a column named Page.
    Type in name of the page on which you would like this link to appear.
    Add a column named Row.
    Create a view filtered by page name and Row. Example: Show only when Page = HomePage AND Row = 1
    Create another view filtered by page name and another Row. Example: Show only when Page = HomePage AND Row = 2.
    Go the page you would like the links to appear. Edit the Page.
    Add Promoted Links app part (still not used to the app thing) and select your view for Row 1
    Add another Promoted Links app part and select the view for Row 2.
    Lather, Rinse and Repeat.

  • Inline Search with Library and Link App Part

    I have created a wiki page with a Library app part on it.  The search box option is checked and it displays as expected as part of the Library app part.  At this point I can type in the search box and it filters the library as expected -everything
    is working.
    Then I add any type of app part with a list component - Promoted links, Calendar in list view, etc.  Now when I type a term in the search box on the library it does it does not filter the library.  It list the same items as prior to the search
    except it now displays "Some items may be hidden..." at the bottom.  The list box (which I was not trying to search) displays "No results found"
    I am completely stuck on why inline search is not working for the library if their is a list on the same page.

    Thanks for any help!
     

    Hi Michelle,
    Per my test, it seems that SharePoint Foundation does not support inline search.
    Could you please re-check SharePoint version and its build number for further research?
    If this issue is related to SharePoint Server 2013, then it is a by design issue that the inline search will not work correctly after installing SP1 for SharePoint and this issue is resolved if August 2014 CU is installed.

  • Promoted links in center of page using CSS code in a script editor

    I do not have access to the sharepoint designer (company policy) but I'm trying to get my promoted links in the center of my SharePoint-page. This all in a way that they stay centered when I change form laptopview (1366x768) to desktopview (1920x1080).
    I've googled the problem but no solution is (yet) presented.
    Can you help me to the script editor code I need?

  • Cancel / Reset links in popup dialog

    Hi, I'm new to ADF 11g (using Jdeveloper 11.1.1.4.0) so this is probably an easy question. I have a popup dialog (using <af:popup>, <af:dialog>), and in the dialog, I want to have Cancel and Reset links. I know that if I set the type attribute of <af:dialog> to "cancel", I could get a Cancel button for free. But I want to have a Cancel link instead of a button so I have the type attribute of <af:dialog> set to "none" to not show any of the default buttons. How could I best implement a Cancel link as a commandLink or goLink? The documentation for <af:dialog> at http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/docs/tagdoc/af_dialog.html says this about the cancel button behavior and I just want to have the same for my Cancel link:
    The ESC key, "cancel" button and close icon queues a client dialog event with a "cancel" outcome. Dialog events with a "cancel" outcome will not be sent to the server.
    Also, I want to have a Reset link in my dialog that just resets the form fields in the dialog. How would this be done? I saw that there's a <af:resetButton> component available, but this renders as a button and again I want to have a Reset link instead of a button.
    Thanks.

    Ok, this worked for me:
    <af:resource type="javascript">
    function closePopup(actionEvent) {
    var eventSource = actionEvent.getSource();
    var popup = eventSource.findComponent("p1"); // p1 is the id of my popup
    popup.hide();
    actionEvent.cancel();
    </af:resource>
    <af:commandLink text="Cancel" id="cl1" partialSubmit="true">
    <af:clientListener type="click" method="closePopup"/>
    </af:commandLink>
    Interestingly, I found that if I did not have partialSubmit="true" on the commandLink, then the popup would disappear on its own. I did not even have to have a clientListener on the commandLink. I guess this is due to the following mentioned at http://jdevadf.oracle.com/adf-richclient-demo/docs/tagdoc/af_dialog.html
    Using partial submit custom buttons is recommended because by default, a popup will not restore visibility after a full postback. The immediate parent (af:popup) controls this behavior. If the parent popup's autoCancel property is enabled, full submit commands will cause the popup dialog to auto-dismiss. When the autoCancel property is disabled, full submit commands will restore visibility on postback. See the af:popup tag documentation for more information on controlling aspects of auto-dismissal.
    Does anyone know what the difference between using popup.hide() and popup.cancel() would be in the above javascript? They seem to have the same effect. Also, do I really need to have actionEvent.cancel() in the above javascript? I have seen that in some other examples, but not really sure if it's really necessary as having it there or not there doesn't seem to make a difference either.

  • Controlling visibility of links in a promoted links list

    I have a few links in a Promoted List app that appear as live tiles on the page.  Is there a way to control the visibility of these links/tiles based on the username of the logged in user?
    Any instructions/directions on how to go about this will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Are you referring to the promoted sites that are set up in the user profile service?  If so, there are no permissions involved.  You need to create audiences in the user profile service, and target each promoted site to a specific audience of
    people.

  • Begginer Flex Apps for browser Questions:

    Begginer Flex Apps for browser Questions:
    To change Dim in Flex App I must change file in address bar of browser, in other words create another page?
    Usually Flex Web sites come in only one file or many [upper 10?]?
    Scrolled Area in Flex how called [I mean like XHTML DIV Scrolled area?
    I book Flex 4: vol. I , Tranning from the Source, from Adobe press, covered:
    Scrolled Areas

    publish to live server
    if not, then all these covered in vol.II?

    to change the dimension of your flash window inside the browser you can use javascript... or you can have your flash-element in full size of the browser window and handle the resizing flash-intern, so you do not need an extra page for that. Just take a look at the HTML-Code and ask again if you are not that skilled with HTML/JavaScript.
    usual you have only one SWF.
    You can use the spark Scroller (see http://blog.flexexamples.com/2009/05/01/creating-a-scrolling-spark-panel-container-in-flex -gumbo/ for example)
    Sorry, I don't know, but I can give you some hints:
    for scrolling you can use Scroller
    I don't know, what you mean by e-mail but you can use javascript to create a "mailto:"-link (see http://flexonblog.wordpress.com/2007/12/18/mailing-in-flex-using-javascript-function-mailt o/ )
    the easiest way to deploy you just have to copy your swf and html-files from your flex-project to a web-server.
