How to display the field name in the tabulated view for a content query web part

I have added a content query web part changed the web part file to include custom columns imported and reffered itemstyle.xsl
to include the tabulated view for the content query.
However the way it is displayed is such that only the content is displayed.
As i am using a tabular view wto display the data, i want to display their field names as well.

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you need to display the field in the tabulated view for a content query web part.
For your issue, please refer to the code as below:
<xsl:template name="VendorCustomStyle" match="Row[@Style='VendorCustomStyle']" mode="itemstyle">
<html>
<table width="100%">
<xsl:if test="count(preceding-sibling::*)=0">
<tr>
<td width="8%" valign="top"><div class="item"><b>Vendor ID</b></div></td>
<td width="12%" valign="top"><div class="item"><b>Vendor Name</b></div></td>
<td width="50%" valign="top"><div class="item"><b>Vendor Description</b></div></td>
<td width="10%" valign="top"><div class="item"><b>Vendor Country</b></div></td>
<td width="10%" valign="top"><div class="item"><b>Vendor Date</b></div></td>
<td width="10%" valign="top"><div class="item"><b>Created By</b></div></td>
</tr>
</xsl:if>
<tr>
<td width="8%" valign="top"><div class="item"><xsl:value-of select="@VendorID" /></div></td>
<td width="12%" valign="top"><div class="item"><xsl:value-of select="@Title" /></div></td>
<td width="50%" valign="top"><div class="item"><xsl:value-of select="@Vendor_x005F_x0020_Description" disable-output-escaping="yes" /></div></td>
<td width="10%" valign="top"><div class="item"><xsl:value-of select="@Vendor_x005F_x0020_Country" /></div></td>
<td width="10%" valign="top"><div class="item"><xsl:value-of select="@Vendor_x005F_x0020_Date" /></div></td>
<td width="10%" valign="top"><div class="item"><xsl:value-of select="@Author" /></div></td>
</tr>
</table>

Cannot retrieve data from PublishingPageContentOWSHTML in a Content Search Web Part

I tried to display the content of a page using Content Search Web Part, the page is stored in a Pages library and the content type is Article Page. When the data is retrieved in the Content Search Web Part, the page content mapping to PublishingPageContentOWSHTML
is empty, although other data, such as Title and Page Image, can be retrieved. It's very strange that I can do this work correctly for another CSWP web part, that page is stored in a Pages library in another subsite. Both of the CSWP web parts
are on the same publishing site.
Could everybody tell me what I was doing wrong? Thanks you very much in advance.
Newbie to SharePoint.

Hi Albert GSC, I had the same problem. I'm starting now with display templates and after including "'SecondaryFileExtension','ContentTypeId'" at the end of the mso:ManagedPropertyMapping section it worked.
For example, my mso:ManagedPropertyMapping section was (PublishingPageContentOWSHTML returns empty):
<mso:ManagedPropertyMapping msdt:dt="string">
'Picture URL'{URL de la imagen}:'PublishingImage;PictureURL;PictureThumbnailURL',
'Link URL'{Dirección URL del vínculo}:'Path',
'Line 1':'ArticleStartDateOWSDATE',
'Line 2':'Title',
'Line 3':'PublishingPageContentOWSHTML'
</mso:ManagedPropertyMapping>
Then I included "'SecondaryFileExtension','ContentTypeId'" (PublishingPageContentOWSHTML returns its value):
<mso:ManagedPropertyMapping msdt:dt="string">
'Picture URL'{URL de la imagen}:'PublishingImage;PictureURL;PictureThumbnailURL',
'Link URL'{Dirección URL del vínculo}:'Path',
'Line 1':'ArticleStartDateOWSDATE',
'Line 2':'Title',
'Line 3':'PublishingPageContentOWSHTML',
'SecondaryFileExtension','ContentTypeId'
</mso:ManagedPropertyMapping>
Still don't understand why but I'm looking for the reason, until then hope it helps

Hi Natasha, Do you have multiple Content Query Web Parts on the same page? If so, are you looking to change the font on all of these or just a specific one?
Also, are you looking to make this change to your entire site or only a specific page?

Broken links because of the Rich Text Editor

Hi.
We are actually using the item type "text" to insert sorts of HTML code into our pages, specially when we need to create tables. Since we are using Internet Explorer we have enabled the rich text editor to use in item types text; it has a check box that allows the user to view the text in HTML format, so that is the way we build tables and also "href" links to other pages inside our site.
The problem is this: when I write the path for the HREF links I don't specify the COMPLETE path (that is, without the server name and the portnumber), but when I open the item for edit, the Rich Text Editor seems to be including the server name and the port number in my href path, even when I didn't specify it when creating it.
I need help with this, please. We are using this server for trial purposes, but what would happen when we move the entire site to another server? I guess Portal won't resolve the URLs, but we will have too many broken lists.
Thank you all.

hi guillermo,
with the release of the 9.0.4.1 patchset we now support a new enhanced rich text editor that has very good table support as well as support for relative URLs.
for detailed information please have a look at the following technote that we published recently on OTN:
http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/OTN_CONTENT/MAINPAGE/PUBLISH_CONTMGMT/RICH_TEXT_EDITOR_TECH_NOTE.PDF
this new rich text editor should adress your requirements.

How to customize the Rich Text Editor task flow in the doc lib?

Dear Experts in WCP forum,
You know that webcenter portal has a feature is called customizing task flow.. so we have client request to customize the Rich Text Editor task flow of the Document library. Such as disable the Format, Font, Size drop down menu of the richtext editor UI.   But after I open the editHTML.jsff of the oracle.webcenter.doclib. the code is like this:
                    <f:facet name="richtext">
                           <af:panelGroupLayout layout="scroll" id="rtepng2">
                              <rte:editor id="rte" value="#{pageFlowScope.rte.HTMLTextArea}" converter="#{pageFlowScope.rte.HTMLConverter}"/>
                              
                              <af:region value="#{bindings.linksResourcePicker.regionModel}" id="lpr"/>
                           </af:panelGroupLayout>
                        </f:facet>
So likes that editor in fact is from <rte:editor tag.. my question is how to dig into this <rte:editor to find its jsff code? And change the menu inside to do the cusomization for them?
Is that possible?
A million thanks here in advance!
wayne

    </attribute>
</tag>
Which means that if you want to change the toolbar you have to check what is the type of toolbars the CKEditor uses, I can tell you that there are two defaults: Basic and Full and I believe the tag uses a custom toolbar called WC by default.
So if you want to change the toolbar to only show basic, change the toolbarSet property to Basic to make the final result looks like <rte:editor id="rte" value="#{pageFlowScope.rte.HTMLTextArea}" converter="#{pageFlowScope.rte.HTMLConverter}" toolbarSet="Basic" />
This is not tested, this is only a few insights I got reading about CKEditor

Having installed an upgrade for Photoshop Elements 13, I cannot open the application. I get an error message saying "Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop Elements Edit

Having installed an upgrade for Photoshop Elements 13, I cannot open the application. I get an error message saying "Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor works with this version of OS X. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and OS X".
I have since uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but get the same error message.

Which version of OS X do you have? It's not clear from your post whether "installed an upgrade" means you just installed PSE 13 as an upgrade or you installed an update to PSE 13, like ACR 9 or 13.1. Please clarify.

Display instantly the length of the text entered in the rich text editor

Hi everybody,
I'm developing an apex application with apex 4.1.1 and Oracle 11.2.
I have a page in which I have a form that allows to create a new message on the database.
A message has a title, description, text and date.
For the text I use the item "rich editor text". The problem is that item doesn't show the length of characters entered (character counter for the textarea). In the database the corresponding column is varchar2(2000). What I do is a validation after submit that checks if the limit 2000 was exceeded or not.
But what I want to do more is to display instantly the length of the text entered in the editor. I have tried to do that through a dynamic action. But the event "onChange" for the item "rich text editor" didn't work.
Has anyone any idea about that issue?
Thanks for helping.
Kind regards,

sorry about that, I missed that tidbit in your OP... well I think there is a good reason why there isn't a count character option -- due to the hidden "html" characters responsible for the "richness" (bold/color, etc) applied to the text would be difficult to count true characters.. if I was bent on doing this, I'd continue using the item you are using, but have a HIDDEN text area that is updated via javascript onkeyup for each keystroke (again, keeping in mind you'd have to filter certain keys) and then that intelligence could be used. I would probably dig through the javascript responsible for the rich text editor (is it still fckeditor??) -- there might already be code in there that isn't clearly visible to you that does this already.. alas, I see now the validity of your challenge.

Adding custom buttons to the Rich Text Editor in CQ

Hi,
I have added custom buttons to the rich text editor in order to allow our editors to add specific content, such as popovers, custom videos and other data necessary data.
I have successfully modifed the Rich Text editor so, that it includes the custom buttons in the actions panel.
I have also managed to make the buttons work and include the data where necessary, when user highlights the text and clicks on a certain button.
The last bit I am struggling with, is the visual feedback we give to the users when this text has associated action with it.
E.g. when we select this text and make it bold when we click on the word B the button B becomes highlighted in the actions panel, later when we continue typing our text and click again on "bold" the letter B becomes highlighted again.
Is there any button related callback/method I could overwrite to add this functionality and make my button highlighted ?
Thanks,
Puzanovs

After lot's of thinking found a solution....
Essentially the first step is to extend the CQ.form.rte.plugins.Plugin in your custom button.
Then during the UI initialisation we create our "custom"
var pressButton = new ui.TbElement("press-button", this, true,this.getTooltip("press-button")); // Essential extend of the button
setInterval(function() {
                 if(window.jQuery) {
                     window.jQuery(document).ready(function () {
                         window.jQuery(".x-edit-glossary-insert").css({width:45,"background-image":"none"}); // Ignore the background
                         window.jQuery(".x-edit-glossary-insert").text("Press Button"); // Set the name
                        $(document).on({
                            mouseenter: function(){
                              window.jQuery(".x-edit-glossary-insert").html("<b>Press Button</b>"); // Set the name bold
                            mouseleave: function(){
                           window.jQuery(".x-edit-glossary-insert").html("Press Button"); // Set the name normal
                         }}, '.press-button');
             }, 100);
tbGenerator.addElement("press-button", plg.Plugin.SORT_LISTS, pressButton, 10); // element is inserted
Every time the element is inserted I add the following html
<span class="press-button">Test peter</span>
Now, every time in the editor, the content editor mouse overs the custom button it is higlighted in the RTE))

When reading the Rich Text present in Excel column using open XML its taking it as plain text

Hello All,
When i am reading excel columns using open Xml in C# everything is working fine except the column that
contain Rich Text (ex: bold, italic,color,size). Its reading the Rich Text content as plain text. As we know for Rich Text in open XML we get the text as Runs (C#
object) which contains the text as value and rpr as run properties. I have also written the code to convert Runs to html. But the issue is that for some Rich Text format its reading it as Runs but most of the Rich Text its reading it as plain text.
The issue i am getting is, for some rich text its creating RUN and for some of the rich text its not creatingRUN.
Let me give the example for more understanding:
Suppose i have two cells in excel which contains the below text.
1. Rich Text
1
2. RichText
2
Now when i read these cells using the below code
var stringTable =spreadsheetDocument.WorkbookPart.GetPartsOfType<SharedStringTablePart>().FirstOrDefault();
if (stringTable.SharedStringTable.ElementAt(index1).ChildElements.GetItem(0).GetType().Name == "Run")
Custom code to convert Rich text to HTML...
else
Read the plain text...
Though both the cell contains rich text, one is going in RUN block and one is going in Plain text bloc.
Also, one thing that i have noticed is when i use standard color for text its consider it as RUNS and when i use color apart from the standard color it does not consider it as RUNS. Same behavior occurs for different combination of text viz. bold, italic, underline
etc

Is Content stored in the Rich Text Editor saved to the Database?

Is Content stored in the Rich Text Editor saved to the Database? We are planning a migration from our Dev environment to our QA/Staging environment and would like to migrate our existing content. We were told that content stored in the Rich Text Editor is stored somewhere in the Plumtree database. Is this true? If so, where in the DB (table/field) is it stored?

Some of the content from Publisher is stored in the file system.
Look under: plumtree\ptcs\publishedcontent
there you'll find your preview and published content.

I cannot open the editor.

I bought the disc. Installed it, registered it and now cannot get into the editor. I was able to earlier. Following the forum discussion, I downloaded a trial version and put in my serial number. Of course it uninstalled the program I had loaded with the disc. I still cannot open the editor. What do I do?

gephart41
Please tell us what version of Premiere Elements that you have and on what computer operating system it is running on. If your "editor" represents Photoshop Elements, you have posted in the wrong forum.
Whatever the case, I would start with a "clean slate". Uninstall the program via Control Panel route, do a ccleaner run through to get rid of any leftovers from incomplete uninstalls reinstalls, and the reinstall the program with anti-virus and firewalls disabled.

The above is assuming a Windows computer in use. Suggestions will be fine tuned after you supply the appropriate background information regarding program and computer.
Also, please review the content of the following blog post on Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements Editor not opening...
