SharePoint 2013 Filter Web Part configure connection webpage blank

Hi,
I've got a problem at one of my clients. I'm trying to connect a filter web part to a document library.
I'm configuring a connection and the first pop-up (where you can configure a "Get Parameters From or Get Filter Values from" connection type) shows up fine.
When I select one of the options the next screen is all blank.
I've used IE in different modes (IE 11, IE 10 IE 9) and also tried using Chrome, but all the same result.
Can anyone help me?

Hi Elmar,
According to your description, my understanding is that the Configure Connection webpage of the filter web part was blank.
I recommend to add the site where the filter web part existed to the trusted zone and add to compatibility view in Internet Explorer to see if the issue still occurs.
Best regards.
Thanks

SharePoint 2013 Visual Web Part Custom Property.

How to create drop down control to display existing libraries in current web site using a custom web part property?i want to show this control on web part configuration.then users can select the relevant library without typing.(SharePoint
2013 Visual Web Part).
Thanks

This has been answered for SP 2010 at SP:SO. Things wont change much in SP 2013 as far as VWP is concerned. Basically you will need to implement Custom Web Part Editor.

SP2013 - Date Filter Web Part looses connection when used in a site template

Hi,
I created two table reports in SQL Reporting Services 2012 and inserted in a web page using the Reporting Service Report viewer in SharePoint 2013 with CU Dez 2013. The two reports require two dates and I use two date filter web parts (I did not try the
date range solution I saw in the fórum).
So the user inputs the two dates in date filters that send the information to thereports in the same page.
They work in the site and I saved it as template. However when I create e new site using it as a templates, the date filter connections are broken and of course, they did not work.
For another report where I usea text filter, it worked without any problem in the template.
Does anybody know any workaround?
Thank you.
Best regards, Ricardo Segawa - Segawas Projetos / Microsoft Partner

Hi ,
The new site based on the saved site template will generate new ID for date filter web part, in the web part page the SPWebPartConnection "ProviderID" value seems still to reference the original date filter web part ID (see from
SharePoint Designer), as a workaround we can re-configure the web part connection from the web part page manually or programmatically from that new site web part page.

Sharepoint 2013 - InfoPath Web Part Errors

There may be a better way to accomplish what I'm doing so I will explain the idea first. I'm putting together a PMO Sharepoint Site which contains drill down project information from 4 groups to over 500 projects. I would like to display the
data in a more dynamic way than just in lists so I am attempting to use an InfoPath form to display dynamic data in a more friendly text view.
After creating a form view in InfoPath 2010, I loaded it into Sharepoint 2013. I went through "Connections" and selected "Get Form From" and chose a web part list. After choosing the view and saving I receive this error. Sometimes
it saves correctly but when I go back to edit the web part this error appears.

SharePoint 2013 - Media Web Part and Silverlight

Hi
Is Silverlight mandatory for Media Web Part.? As per my understanding .WMV and .MP4 files will be played in HTML 5 player with IE 9 and above.
I have configured a Media Web Part with a .WMV video file. We have to use IE9 browser. The video plays with Silverlight but if I uninstall Silverlight from machine it doesn't play. How to make these videos play in machines without
silverlight?
Thanks
Ari

Hi Ariharaselvan,
If you use Media Web Part to play the video, you need to install Silverlight on the client server. If not, it doesn’t work.
As a workaround, you can use a third party media player to play the video. Here is a CodePlex solution, please have a try:

Internet Explorer 11 and SharePoint 2013 Standard - Web Parts and Calendar Don't Display/Render Correctly

Hello everyone.
I am currently running a fully patched (Service Pack 1) version of SharePoint Standard 2013 On Premises. I am having 2 problems that are reproducible on both Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 on multiple computers when running Internet Explorer 11 (fully updated
through Windows Update). The issues are "fixed" when running compatibility view in the browser or using Chrome/Firefox.
The issues are as follows:
Issue 1 Calendar view does not display correctly
Issue 2 Web parts do not display correctly when editing a page.
Picture of calendar
Webpart "edit menu dropdown" in upper right corner is replaced with 2 up arrows. Clicking minimizes web part.
Is there any word on a fix for this? Is this something only I am experiencing? Is there an issue with my SharePoint server? I would hate to have to uninstall IE11 from 300 machines and install IE10.
Thanks

There are a few critical issues
Pages will not enter edit mode. You will click Settings > Edit Page and the page will simply refresh but will not change over into edit mode. Seems to only affect pages with
Web Part Zones.
Calendar will not enter edit mode.
Web Part Properties cannot be modified. If you are able to get into edit mode (you can edit wiki pages) you will not be able to modify existing Web Parts by using the Web Part
Properties panel. Instead you will see a really weird collapse button that looks like it is coming from the mobile view but you cannot modify web part properties… even through the ribbon controls.
I cannot use the import spreadsheet app, the error says it is not supported with the current browser.
When I hoover over a “people” field I cannot see their information.
I had all these capabilities with IE9
This suggestion I found online appears to fix issues 1-3.
http://windowsitpro.com/windows-7/fixing-most-not-all-ie11-compatibility-problems
To run in compatibility mode
Press ALT + T when viewing your      SharePoint page
Click Compatibility View Settings      in the menu that appears
Click Add to add the current      SharePoint site to your list of compatibility view pages

Access Exchange 2013 Calendar from Sharepoint 2013 OWA Web Part

Hi,
For the moment I have five User
Mailboxes on Exchange 2010 whose
calendars that appear in a SharePoint
2013 using Outlook Web App Web Part.
In Exchange 2010, IIS has created a new
WebSite with OWA, ECP
and some more Virtual Directories,
where OWA is Windows Integrated
and Basic Auth. enabled (not
FBA).
This makes so users do not have additional
logins in SharePoint when they look at
the calendars.
I now want to move these mailboxes to an Exchange
2013. I must then create a new WebSite
with Win.Integrated etc, but have
heard it is unsupported. Is there
any other way to solve this?
Best Regards

Hello,
Sorry for delayed response.
I recommend you check the Outlook Hotfix and version number again via Control Panel.
Please check the version number via outlook 2010 "File".
If the outlook version number is 14.0.7113.5000, please try my above suggestion to specify the SSL certificate principal name. Because XP system is not always to look for the next lines on a SAN certificate.

Sharepoint 2013 Visual Web part Deloyment

Hello,
I built a visual web part(sharepoint 2013) using visual studio 2012. But when I tried deploying, I got this error message:
"Error occured in deployment step 'Activate Features': Feature id '****' is not installed in this farm, and cannot be added to this".
Approaches I made to fix this :
1) Tried changing the scope of Feature to Farm/Web/WebApplication
2) Tried installing feature manually using Install-SPFeature -AllExistingFeatures
3) Tried resetting IIS
None of these attempts helped me. Can someone help me on this ?
Thanks
KG

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you get error while deploying the visual web part.
To narrow down whether the issue is related to the project itself, you can do some steps as below.
Re-open the visual studio, create a new clean project with a simple visual web part then check whether it works.
What’s more, you can check whether feature assembly is register in GAC or not. So try to uninstall feature and use below command: (if have not done before)
Install-SPSolution -Identity MYfeature.wsp -GACDeployment -force
Thanks & Regards,

How to display alert message box in sharepoint 2013 visual web part?

Hi,
I am developing a visual web part which submits data to the list. Once it submits the data, I should convey to the user that the data has been submitted successfully.
I tried using clientScript.RegisterStartUpScript etc, but, none of them are working. It is not throwing any error , but pop up is not getting displayed.
Preferrably, I would like to call this alert message from cs page, because, I will be using it in several places.
Please help me.!
Thanks in advance.
Hepsi

Hepsi,
Step 1. On the Page_Load - This way you can pass parameters. Try this
btn.Attributes.Add(
"onclick", string.Format("return openSPPopup('{0}?{1}={2}', '{3}')", YourPage_URL, var1_Name, value1, Param1_PopupTitle));
Step 2 : Javascript function
function openSPPopup(navigateURL, popUptitle) {
var options = {
width: popupWidth,
height: popupHeight,
url: navigateURL,
scroll: 0
SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog(options);
return false;
Step 3: The popup close code (in .cs file) – I do it this way as it is just close dialog code and easy to write.
protected void btnClose_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{ this.Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(), "PopupScript", "SP.UI.ModalDialog.commonModalDialogClose(1, 1);", true);

How can I use today's date as default value in query string filter web part in SharePoint

I have a query string filter on my web part page. I am trying to figure out how I can set it's default value to Today? I can't find anything online...

Hi,
Per my understanding, you might want to set a default value to the Query String Filter Web Part.
It would not be able to set default value to the Query String Filter Web Part with the OOTB features available.
By default, with a Query String Filter Web Part in the current page, we can filter other web part in the same page by adding parameters and values in the address bar
of browser.
If setting the “Query String Parameter Name” of a Query String Filter Web Part as “t”, then we can filter the corresponding connected web part by inputting such an
URL into the address bar:
http://sharepoint/SitePages/Page1.aspx?t=value1
Suppose you want to filter the list view with a value dynamically when user opens this page, as a workaround, we can generate an URL with the parameters needed when
page loaded, then redirect user to this URL afterwards. This can be achieved using JavaScript.
About how to redirect user to other page with an URL:

List Filter Web Part not Working

Hi. I'm implementing a SharePoint Server 2013 Enterprise Farm on a new Customer. I've created the desired site structure. When trying to use the List Filter web part, i can configure, connect sucessfully to another webpart and even filter.
The problem is that the Webpage Dialog with the filters, the radio buttons show up but no description is associated to them. Regardless if i configure the description in the web part properties. I even gone further, and tried do create a choice filter,
with the same behavior.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Tiago Costa

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have an issue about the list filter web part.
Per my knowledge, the description column is used to display an alternative value in the Select Filter Value(s) dialog box, which displays when a user clicks the Filter button.
For example, if you have a Month number column that uses the numbers 1 though 12 as month values, you can use a Month Name column as the Description column so that January is displayed instead of 1, February instead of 2, and so on.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/sharepoint-server-help/connect-a-filter-web-part-to-a-list-view-web-part-HA010250989.aspx
I tried to reproduce the issue in my environment, however, when I chose the
Created column for Description field, when I clicked the filter button, the created time displayed.
Did the issue occur in other pages? You can recreated a new page, then check whether it works.
You can also use other browsers to check whether it works.

Jason

Excel web part and choice filter web part session timeout

Hi,
I have set up a excel web part and choice filter web part so I can change the parameters for the excel with the choice filter. I used this link: office.microsoft.com/en-001/sharepoint-server-help/connect-filter-web-parts-to-excel-web-access-HA010105470.aspx
The problem that I have, is that each time I select a parameter through the choice filter web part, I get a session timeout:
How can I prevent the session timeouts? I allready checked the Trusted File Location in the central admin (the location where the Excel is uploaded is not mentioned specifically, but the main domain is, so I guess all domains that built upon the
main domain are also trusted locations?)

Hi vjo,
Please try to increase the Short Session Timeout in the trusted file location, compare the result.
If this issue still exists, please check the ULS log to find whether there is something about this issue.
The path of the log file is: C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS.

Wendy
