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.
Take a look at the similar post:

  • 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 ".

  • Promotedlinks Launch behavior -Dialogue is not working in sharepoint2013

    Hi,
    Promoted Links lanuch behavior -"dialogue" is not working. page-navigation and new tab is working fine.Only issue with Dialogue. i am getting the follwing error when i am selecting dialogue.
    Please guide me on this.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    From your description, my understanding is that you get error when you create a new item and choose “Dialog” launch behavior in promoted links app.
    I am not sure which link do you post in your Promoted Links, you could find that not all pages/sites work with dialog launch behavior from this article:
    https://speelco.wordpress.com/2013/09/17/promoted-links-your-links-in-sharepoint-2013/
    And here is a similar case for reference:

  • 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.

  • 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?

  • 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).

  • Promoted link to trigger the content display in a web part

    Here is what I am trying to achieve.
    To have a promoted link (to a html source) at the site home page. On clicking the link, the content displays either in a pane just below the link or in a web part.
    Is this possible OOB? if not, how can this be achieved?
    Thanks,

    I know you could use jQuery to manipulate it I just don't know exactly how you would do it :).

    When I mouseover links, a gray dialog box appears but it is always blank. I have checked on other browsers and the same link brings up dialog.
    I am running Firefox RC.

    figured it out:
    - power off mac and turn back on while holding down Command + R (dont do it on an external keyboard just to be safe)
    - choose the re-install Lion option (I'm sure there is another way to re-install Lion, this is just the way I did it, not saying its the best or only method)

  • 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.

  • Apply Different Background Color to Promoted Links Tiles

    Hello everyone,
    Does anybody know a way of changing the background color of each individual tile of Promoted Links? If possible, and if anybody is familiar, I would like to do it using a JS Link file.
    Thanks in advanced.
    Fausto Capellan, Jr - SharePoint Admin

    Hi Fausto,
    You could try the script below to set color without randomly change:
    <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">
    $(document).ready(function () {
    var id;
    var rgb;
    var rgb1;
    var rgb2;
    var rgb3;
    for (var i = 0; i < $("div.ms-tileview-tile-content").length; i++){
    id = $("div.ms-tileview-tile-content")[i].id;
    if(i%2 == 0){
    rgb1 = getRgb(0,i);
    rgb2 = getRgb(50,i);
    rgb3 = getRgb(150,i);
    }else{
    rgb1 = getRgb(150,i);
    rgb2 = getRgb(50,i);
    rgb3 = getRgb(0,i);
    rgb = "rgb("+rgb1+","+rgb2+","+rgb3+")";
    $("#"+id).css("background-color",rgb);
    function getRgb(n,i){
    var rgbNum = n + i *25;
    if (rgbNum < 255){
    return rgbNum;
    }else{
    getRgb(1,1);
    </script>
    Please set the parameter “n” with number per your situation in the function getRgb(n,i). The screenshot below is my result:

  • 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.

  • Display Promoted links in Multiple Lines

    Any suggestions or help in this.

    Hi,
    The solution you mentioned did not work form me either. I digged through the internet and something else worked:
    On a single page add a Script Editor Web Part and paste the following code in the source:
    <style type="text/css">
    .ms-promlink-body {width:100%}
    .ms-promlink-header {visibility:hidden}
    < /style>
    Works perfectly for me!
