Slideshow Web Part item limit

I've got a picture library with over 700 images (and growing) but the web part, set to display sequentially, is only showing 300 images before looping. When it's set to random it shows more!?! I need it to display sequentially as people are going to be
going through the images and filling in an excel spreadsheet when they recognise someone in the image. If it's set to random it's going to give them a stinking headache! Is there any way of disabling the limit on sequential order?? If not, what are my options?
So far, the slideshow is the only way I've found to display the images quickly (without having to click on each pic in the library, which will be a very slow process), and not being able to change this very restrictive limit is incredibly frustrating (and
shortsighted on Microsoft's part)!
The only other option I could think of was multiple picture libraries linking to multiple web parts. Is this really all I can do??

People have asked similar questions on LinkedIn and SharePoint Stack Exchange, and it seems there is a 300 limit when displaying sequentially, 1500 when displaying randomly. You could look at using some custom web parts. Amrein Engineering have a few: Image
Rotator, Banner Rotator and Slideshow. None of them are expensive and you could ask them first if there are any limits.

Picture Library Slideshow Web Part - Is it possible to switch between two image librarys in one slideshow

In our office we have a screen at the front desk that runs a PP slideshow showing welcome messages to guests arriving.
SharePoint may not be the solution, but the overall objective is to find a way to have a library of X number of photos (say the library size is 30 images) and a separate library of X number of welcome messages (usually ~5 images).
We want the slideshow to randomly pull 5 images from the 1st pool and then play the images in the 2nd Pool.
Let me know if you have heard of a solution similar to this. Thanks!

Hi Twirlz03,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display teo picutre libraries in a picture slideshow web part in SharePoint 2010.
By default, one Picture Slideshow web part only display images fron one specifical picutre library, it is unable to apply for multiple picture libraries.
You can try to utilize Content Query web part to aggregate picture items from the site collection or site. However, you mean that you want the slideshow to randomly pull 5 images from first library and then play the images in the second library, I’m afriad
that it is hard to achieve it.
More information about aggregating picture items , please refer to section 4 of the link below:

Eliminate White Space in Picture Library Slideshow Web Part

On my site, I am using picture library slideshow web parts on two different pages, and one of them is giving me trouble with unwanted white space between the photos and the back, pause, forward control buttons (see photo below).
In an attempt to resolve this issue, I have tried numerous things. I have resized the width and height of the web part itself to many different sizes, but to not avail. I have cropped and resized all of the photos to be the exact same size of 300x200
pixels. I have used CSS to display the photos to their actual size rather than the standard preview size. With all of this in mind, my second photo library web part on another page works perfectly. This was white space problem was only an issue until
I resized/cropped the photos in that case. For this page, however, that solution is not working.
Does anyone have any clue as to how I can remove this unwanted white space?
Thank you!

Hi Stacey,
From your description, you would like to remove white space in picture library slideshow web parts. You used CSS to solve it however a web part still show white spaces.
Please press F12 and see if there is div tag in white space, if there is, try remove it.

How can I fix the image size in a "Picture Library Slideshow Web Part"

When I upload images to be used in the Slideshow Web Part they become skewed because they are different sizes. Is there a way to fix this besides uploading images that are all the same size?
Thanks,
Kathleen

Display Slide Show Images within fixed size
The Picture Library Slide Show Web Part show the images stored in a picture library with slide show effect.
This slide show web part displays the images with it's original size. Due to this the web part changes its size according to the image size. If we want the slide show to run within the specific size on the page then we need to control the size of the images
to the fixed length during runtime.
To achieve this we need to add the CEWP above the picture Library Slide Show web part & insert the following script in that web part.
<style type="text/css">
.ms-WPBody TD {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: auto !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
.ms-WPBody TD DIV {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
.ms-WPBody TD IMG {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 260px !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
190px !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px; align: center
.s4-wpcell-plain {
    PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT-WIDTH: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING- WIDTH: 100% !important; PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; BORDER-TOP-WIDTH: 0px; BORDER-BOTTOM-WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT:
auto !important; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; BORDER-LEFT-WIDTH: 0px; PADDING- 0px
.ms-PartSpacingVertical {
    MARGIN-"color:#783f04;font-family:'Courier New',Courier,monospace;" />}
.style1 {
    COLOR: #808080
}</style>
We can fix the height & width of the image in the .ms-WPBody TD IMG css.

How to display original images in SlideShow web part
Step 1. Save below JavaScript code to file, for example in SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt and upload it to SiteAssets Library
<script type="text/javascript">
function SlideshowObjectInitializer() {
ShowPic = (function(ShowPicOrig) {
return function() {
var ssObj = arguments[0]; //SlideShow object
var curPicIdx=ssObj.index; //current picture index
ShowPicOrig.apply(this, arguments); //call original ShowPic
//apply some changes to display original picture in SlideShow control
ssObj.image.src = ssObj.linkArray[curPicIdx]; //display original image instead of web image
//change picture & container size to auto instead of fixed (by default web image size is used)
ssObj.image.setAttribute('height','100%');
ssObj.image.setAttribute('width','100%');
var cell = ssObj.cell;
cell.style.width = 'auto';
cell.style.height = 'auto';
cell.style.display = '';
var pcell = ssObj.cell.parentNode;
pcell.style.width = 'auto';
pcell.style.height = 'auto';
})(ShowPic);
ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(SlideshowObjectInitializer, 'imglib.js');
</script>
Step 2. Add CEWP on page where Slideshow web part is located and in the Content Editor tool pane, under Content Link, type
/SiteAssets/SlideshowObjectInitializer.txt.

Remove empty space in Picture Library Slideshow web part

I'm using Picture Library Slideshow web part in one of my pages. The web part itself is working fine, but I'm a bit annoyed by the white space the web part is consuming.
The web part puts lots of empty space between the web part header and the picture and also to the bottom of the web part.
The Slideshow web part generates the CSS on the fly, so I cannot really get a control of it cause it doesn't have any static CSS classes(that I know of, at least).
How could I get rid of these white spaces?

Hi Pekch,
Thanks for your post.
You can achieve this using JQuery.
1.
Download
JQuery to your SharePoint Server, and then add a Content Editor Web Part to the page;
2.
View the source code using IE developer(Press F12), the code likes below:
<td style="width: 195px; height: 213px;">
                <div style="..." id="MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart_ctl00_m_g_ffa17524_ffa7_44e7_974c_1756a39257b9_cell">
                </div>
</td>
3.
So now, you can find the control whose id is started with “MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart” using the JQuery Code below:
jQuery('div[@id^=”MSOPictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart”]')
4.
Remove the style of the “div” and his parent “td”. Because there is a “Width” attribute in both levels.

Picture Library Slideshow Web Part

I am able to create a slide show via Picture Library Slideshow Web Part but the title and description will not show up. I have tried all the options but
only the picture shows and not the picture title. I was hoping to have the picture title appear below the image. Can this be fixed or is it something I have to do without?
Thank you.

Hi Sarah,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to show Title of the image under the image in Picture Library Slideshow Web Part.
I recommend to edit the Picture Library Slideshow Web Part and select Title only below image under Display with and make sure that the picture in the picture library has value in Title field.
Best regards.

Override content by search Web Part's limit of 50 results per page

Hello ,
Happy New year 2015.
SharePoint 2013 search webPart renders a maximum of 50 search results per page and it
is not possible to change this hardwired limit by configuring the web part.
If i set it to greater than 50, it throws an error.
How to override this limit of 50 so that i display all result in the same page ( no need to pagination).
I look for a client side solution if possible.
Note : i have applied the solution proposed by Matt
Stark int this work around Blog and i set the limit to 700 but the webPart still get it limit number 50 in stead
of 700.
in my display template , i see that ctx.ClientControl.get_numberOfItems()=700 and in my html i see only 50 items per page.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi PiingPoint,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to show more than 50 results in a page in core search web part.
The "Results Per Page" maximum value 50 is hard-code in OOB Search Core Results Web Part by design, so it could only return maximum 50 items per page, when"Result Per Page" value is larger than 50, it will display default 10 items
per page.
It's for end user experience and performance. Webpart is mostly used as a portion of a page view which users won't want to scroll too much, its not considered to be a good end user experience. Additionally beyond a point we would need
to consider performance aspects to display thousands of items on web page views, hence a maximum value of 50 items without paging has been made available by design to take care of these aspects.
If you want to show more than 50 results per page, you need to develop a custom core search web part to do it.

Hello,
You can try to populate from Webpart Galleries .
1 ) Go to Site collection Settings > Under Galleries > Web parts
2) Web Part Library > Library Tools > Documents > Click on New document
3) A pop up will open > in that search for
Web Part Type Name :Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.PictureLibrarySlideshowWebPart

How to Set Item limit for Picture library Slideshow webpart in SharePoint 2013

Picture library Slideshow webpart is using the default view "All Pictures" and if I set a filter condition in the view, the images are displaying based on it but if I set an Item limit as "5" or any number in the "All Pictures"
view it is not reflecting in the slideshow webpart.
Any suggestion would be a great help as the users want to see only the latest 5 images in the slideshow webpart.
Thanks & regards,
Asha

I don't think so there is any way to set a item count limit on Picture Library Slideshow web wart.
Web Part setting only allows to provide library and View, In List view also you can only set Item Limit to be shown on the 'List View'. Slideshow web part take all the items in the list and show, view is only used to provide which field needs to be shown.
There could be 2 options:
- Write a JavaScript to limit the count, and in the view add Sorting by 'Created' date. You can get some example on how to modify "Library Slideshow web part" javascript here: http://blog.vgrem.com/2013/04/27/beyond-the-slideshow-web-part-capabilities-in-sharepoint-2010/
This link does not have solution of what you want, but it gives a very well idea on what you can look and modify. It will not be that straight forward for sure.
- Create a custom webpart, it could be a easier approach. As there are many slideshow Javascript library present, and through code you will just need do a query and pull data from library with required number of items to be shown.

Cannot get URL web part filter to pass Parameter to List web part

How do I wire an out-of-the-box URL web part filter to a SharePoint 2013 list (or "app" as renamed in 2013) web part when the list has a parameter?
My SharePoint list uses a parameter because it needs a Contains filter, as in
     <Where>
      <Contains>
       <FieldRef Name="MyFieldName"/>
       <Value Type="Note">{MyParam}</Value>
      </Contains>
     </Where>
The ParameterBinding is defined simply.
<ParameterBinding Name="CohortParam" DefaultValue=""/>
It has had Location="None" in the past, but another forum entry that I read suggested removing that.
When I add the list (or "app" in SharePoint 2013) to a web part page and also add a URL Filter web part, the URL filter cannot see the parameter. The menu chain Connection >> Send Filter Values To >> [My List web part name] shows
the dialogue. On the "Choose Connection" tab, I choose "Get Parameter Values From". Clicking the "Configure" button results in the "Configure Connection" tab having the message "The Consumer Web Part did not
provide schema information".

Hi Randy,
You need to change the "MyParam" to "CohortParam", for parameterbinding element we need to add the location attribute as below codeline, then when we use the QueryString "CohortParam" with value in url, it will directly
filter the list web part items without adding URL Filter web part.
<ParameterBinding Name="CohortParam" Location="QueryString(CohortParam)" DefaultValue=""/>
I attached my resutls as below image (also "MyParam" can be changed to "CohortParam" if you want), you can take a look.

How to limit the number of items in a KPI Status list web part?

How to limit the number of items in a KPI Status list web part? There is no paging option for Business Category Status list or any limit can be made by changing the Item limit in default view unlike other SharePoint List web parts. So How to achieve it?
Kindly help.

zzzSharePoint

Hi,
According your post, I know you would like to set the item display limit in Status List web part.
In the web part, the number of items to display is based on the view which you selected when configuring the web part. The default view for status list is status list view.
However, I am not able to limit the items’ display number of the status list view. After changing the items limit, the list item displayed would not match the number specified by Item Limit. Thus, it is not possible to limit the number
of items in the Status list web part.
It could be a potential issue in SharePoint 2010.
We will log this issue to our suggestion box. As after the submission, we may not have any time guarantee when the fix may be released, but it may come out on next cumulative update.
Appreciate your time and efforts.
Thanks.

Make Content Query Web Part Resolve list of Resolvable Items before Trimming Item Limit

I have a problem whereby My Content Query WebPart does not show me the list of items to which I have a permission.
I am able to see the items from my document library but cannot see them
I have identified the problem as being the Item Limit just by removing this setting.
It seems that the Content Query applies the Item limit settings before trying to resolving the permissions.
E.g. Say I have 100 items in my document library and do not have permissions on the first 50 items.
If I set Item limit to 10 in my CQWP, It select the first 10 items of my document library and then resolve permissions on the 10 selected items. This will result in zero items shown in my CQWP as I do not have permission
to see the first 10 items in the library.
I would like to be able to tell the CQWP to first resolve the permissions and return the set of items in the document library for which I have permission (in the e.g. the last 50 items), and then select the 10 first items
and show them in the CQWP.
How can this be done?
Thanks and Regards,
Rhyan.

I'm not sure you'd be able to make changes to that aspect of the CQWP but the Content By Search Web Part should trim before hand, it's also the 'flavour of the month' for SP2013. Would that be a viable choice?

Row limit in declarative list view web part

Hi,
Imagine you are in a scenario where you develop a custom web template or a site definition. Page Layouts with web part zones are being provisioned and out of them, decoratively web part pages are being created and populated with web parts. So something like:
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
<Module Name="XXXProjectPages" Url="$Resources:osrvcore,List_Pages_UrlName;" Path="" SetupPath="FEATURES\XXX_Intranet_PMO_PageLayouts\">

<File Url="FullPageLayout\XXXFullPageLayout.aspx" Name="Default.aspx" Type="GhostableInLibrary" IgnoreIfAlreadyExists="FALSE" ReplaceContent="TRUE" Level="Published">
<Property Name="Title" Value="Team & Collaboration" />
<Property Name="ContentType" Value="$Resources:cmscore,contenttype_page_name;" />
<Property Name="PublishingPageLayout" Value="~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/XXXFullPageLayout.aspx, ~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/XXXFullPageLayout.aspx" />

<View List="Lists/Announcements" BaseViewID="102" WebPartZoneID="wpZone1" WebPartOrder="2">
<![CDATA[
<WebPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2">
<Assembly>Microsoft.SharePoint, Version=15.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c</Assembly>
<TypeName>Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.ListViewWebPart</TypeName>
<Title>Latest News</Title>
<FrameType>TitleBarOnly</FrameType>
</WebPart>
]]>
</View>
For simplicity, let's assume that we are working with instances of OOB list definitions, such as Announcements or Document Library. So far so good. And now the question...
In my understanding if you want to do something as simple as limiting the number of items returned, or specifying a custom view criteria (filter/sorting/grouping, whatever) or just remove the toolbar, you have to go as far as provisioning an ENTIRE LIST
DEFINITION, defining your custom View in it (which declares the toolbar type, row limit and View) and then reference this new View by its BaseViewID. Is that correct?
Is there really no other, simpler way, of 'provisioning' and referencing a new view, to an existing list instance, along with the
Module -> File -> View element? I see a couple of logical options:
1) I would imagine such metadata could be stored in the web part and not the actual list. i.e. the web parts sends a CAML query to the list, based on the View metadata stored in it.
2) As we know, when you Edit page and configure the View for a List View Web Part on the page, that view is stored as a new hidden view in the actual list (i.e. if you have two list view web parts that reference that list, you will have two additional hidden
views). Then why can't we provision such (hidden) view along with the List View WebPart when we declare it and create the page? It could be created on first access of the page, or during the page
provisioning.
Another option could be the XmlDefinition property of the XsltListViewWebPart, but
apparently it is being ignored. I have also tried using the 'CustomSchema' property of the ListInstance, but it totally makes no sense because:
a) You cannot define more than one view in it, i.e. you have to override the OOB view that comes with the definition (lol?!)
b) You are supposed to overwrite the entire list definition, instead of simply upgrading parts of it
So, let me elaborate: if I want to have a <View> (ListViewWebPart) in my Page and this view to have some custom criteria, I have to provision an entire List Definition, is that correct? This is crazy.

Hi Hristo,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to know if you can use <view> tag in the list view web part to define the row limit of list view web part.
Per my knowledge, you can define rowlimit element in the view element for list view web part directly not necessary to modify the entire list definition.
View Element:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ms438338(v=office.15).aspx
Also, if you want to do more customization, you can still orverride the xslt.
