Webpart page in a publishing site

I have a Sharepoint 2013 on premise environment. Does anyone know how to add a webpart page or add the functionality so that it’s a little easier and more consistent?
Here is an article outlining how one might add a wepart page but my issue is that even when I go to the sitepages library and hit add new document from the files tab, webpart page is not available? 
I am working in a publishing site and would really like this page type back. My users do not like the new page layout and prefer the old webpart page options.
http://community.bamboosolutions.com/blogs/sharepoint-2013/archive/2012/11/05/how-to-create-a-web-part-page-in-sharepoint-2013.aspx

Under page layouts I have "site can use any page layout"  The problem that I am having is that this site was created as a publishing site. It seems when a site is created as a publishing site (as opposed to creating a teamsite and enabling
the publishing feature) you do NOT get the same options when creating a new page.
On the Publishing site when I create a page, I get one big column which my users can edit. Under the "Page" tab in the ribbon menu we have the option to adjust the "Page Layout" which seems to offer some options but does not function
like the old webpart page where you can adjust columns .  The options listed here are a bit limited and overly complicated for my user group.
On the Teamsite, with publishing enabled, when I create a page I also get one big column that my users can edit.  under the "Page" tab there is NO page layout button.  Under the Format Text tab there is a "Text Layout" button. 
This is what my users are looking for.  This button gives my users the ability to quickly and easily change the column structure of the site.  It is simple and perfect. 
Any idea how to add the "Text Layout" button to a pub site?

  • How to get (welcome) search page layout on publishing site

    hi friends
    i am working with publishing site
    i need to use (welcome page) search page layout but it is missing in 
    how to get it

    What is that error page there?
    Did you make any changes to default page. If yes try to revert it
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/631113/page-layout-does-not-appear-in-the-page-layouts-list
    Did you have a look at the "Page layouts and site templates" page under Site Settings? On this page you can enable an option that limits the available page layouts to a specified list of page layouts.
    I have worked on a project where we needed to limit the page layouts available on a custom site definition. We implemented this in a feature, that enabled the "limited page layouts" option and populated the list of available page layouts upon activation.
    If this is the issue you are having you could simply turn off this option in the web interface or add the new page layouts manually, but you could also consider implementing a feature receiver that automatically adds your custom page layouts to the list
    of available layouts.

  • Setting Custom Master page in search results page - Publishing site

    Hi,
    I have a publishing site, in which i have a custom Master page.
    However when doing the search in the site, the search results does not show the custom Master page.
    Is it possible to set the custom created Master page for the search results page? How to achieve this?
    Thanks

    Hi Venkat,
    The search page for a publishing site is a file available in the layouts folder (I believe it is the osssearchresults.aspx if you see the address bar). It is used by all web applications and site collections in your farm. So ideally you should not change
    it. I mean you can change it to point to your master page but it is bad practice ..
    I would instead do the following
    1. Create a custom search results web part page and place it in the site collection itself (one of the document libraries)
    2. Custom search results is not difficult because all search results pages are made of a set of Out of the box search results web parts. If you add the same webparts to your page as the default search results page, you have effectively created a copy of
    it
    3. go to site settings --> search settings and change the search results page to your newly created page
    4. The newly created page by virtue of its location will automatically use the master page the rest of the site uses.
    I could not spend the time to try the above for you but I am sure the above will work.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Placeholder not visible in custom page layout - publishing site

    Hi,
    I have a custom page layout in publishing site.
    I had added a new textbox to the existing page layout as below:
    <tr id="trCustomContent2">
    <td id="tdCustomContent" style="padding-top:5px;">
    <div id="divCustomContent" style="padding-left:6px !important;vertical-align:top; width:450px;" >
    <h3>
    <PageFieldTextField:TextField ID="TextField1" FieldName="fec9f0d3-77a3-4afc-99d3-99d2cb745d2c" runat="server" >
    </PageFieldTextField:TextField></h3>
    </div>
    </td>
    </tr>
    I deployed the changes, but in the edit mode of the page, i am not able to see the page layout.
    This issue is happening when a subsite is created. For the existing sites, the textbox is getting shown.
    How to fix this?
    Thanks

    Hi Venkatzeus,
    For each page layout, it has associated with a content type.
    You can click into the content type in site content types under Web Designer Galleries in root site settings.
    And then click Add from new site column to create and add the new site column to this content type.
    After that you can add this column to the page layout(.aspx page for the page layout) with the code below(you need to change the fieldname value to the corresponding GUID of the column):
    <div>
    <Publishing:EditModePanel runat="server" CssClass="edit-mode-panel">
    <PageFieldTextField:TextField ID="TextField1" FieldName="6bf50814-27d1-4b36-9980-c702c25080d7" runat="server">
    </PageFieldTextField:TextField>
    </Publishing:EditModePanel>
    </div>

    You do not need to work on visual studio, you can create page layout form web and sharepoint designer. Page layouts are only available on publishing sites, you can modify page layout using sharepoint designer, add your required html and web part zones.
    Check below few links for reference:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg430141(v=office.14).aspx#bk_custompagelayout

    Page layouts creation and editing is almost same in MOSS 2007, SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint 2013. If you are creating page layout using web then you can easily modify it using SharePoint designer.

  • Published Site Does Not Match Design File

    I've published a website but it does not match the design file.  It's showing an older version that has since been changed and not sure why it's picking up something I've updated and saved over many times.  Thanks for any and all help.

    And now I'm seeing a problem of a similar nature.  The design and preview show a smooth transition between all pages, but the published site shows the logo in the upper left "jumping" when I leave the home page.  I've checked the page properties between all of the pages and they seem to be set the same.  I am using only one master page for all of the pages.  Any ideas on why this would be occurring?  The website is jacksoncompany.net.

  • Published site does not match saved file

    I need to make some changes to an iweb created website, but when I open the domain file in iweb only 2 pages ( show up in the side bar. The last time I saved this file, I had 10 pages. When I press "visit site" all of the pages show up.
    Is this some sort of glitch? Can I do something to retrieve these pages or will I have to start from scratch?
    Any help greatly appreciated!

  • Publishing site - Add a list to Site pages - Ribbon items disabled

    Hi,
    I created a publishing site in SharePoint 2013.
    I created a custom list and added few data to it.
    In the Home page of the site, I clicked on "Add Page". Once the page is created, I clicked on "Insert" - select "webpart" -  choose the custom list. I published the page.
    The list was added. However on selecting any of the item in the list, the items inside the ribbon having "Items" and "List" seems to be disabled.
    I have not changed any master page. I have owner permission in the site.
    How to make the ribbon items visible when an item is selected? This is only happening for a publishing site template and not on a Team site?
    Has anybody encountered this? How to fix this?
    Thanks

    To my Knowledge there doesn't exist ribbon with "Item" and "List" categories in publishing page of publishing site template
    I believe you have not checkedin the page and 
    Published  the page. Kindly publish the page and check if you are still able to find the ribbon with those categories disabled. I just tried and dint find it.Let me know if still the problem exists.

    Doing the following wouldn't hurt either:
    delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.

  • How to configure CSWP on Category page to show the Published Catalog-item page on Publishing site in a Cross Site Publishing scenario?

    I have created a Cross Site Publishing Environment in SharePoint Online. After connected
    to my catalog. 2 pages automatically created. But in "Category" page, if i click on an item it will bring me to the original path/item located in Authoring site. How to configure Content Search Web Part on Category page to show the Published Catalog-item
    page on Publishing site?
    Can we do this by changing the property mappings?

    Hi,
    According to my understanding, you want users to be redirected to pages in the current site instead of the source page of the search results in a Content Search Web
    Part.
    By default, the hyperlinks of the search results in a Content Search Web Part will point to the source page where the data comes from, when the hyperlink of each result
    is clicked, user will be redirected to the corresponding source page.
    If the data comes from other sites, what page do you want to display when user clicks a search result in the Content Search Web Part?
    Property Mappings can help to control the content of each part of a display template, however, there seems no such property in the search result can help to redirect
    to the pages of the current site, thus, it might not be able to meet your requirement.

  • Calendar view on page for Published site.

    I have a subsite, and I create a calendar for meetings, on a new page I added a web part to show the calendar (calendar view). when I logged on the site, each event has their one link to details, (disform.aspx?id= something)  but as soon I publish the
    page, and go and use the browser as anonymous (not logged), I can see the calendar but I don't have links to see the details of the event.
    I know this work because on the same site I have another subsite with another calendar and it is working just fine, i tried and I know I did it in another site, I just don't have links in this one.
    the collapse or add links show up and work fine, it is just the link to the events detail. Someone can help me?

    I did a test in my environment with anonymous access in the publish site and the event is in the calendar.
    For a better troubleshooting, I suggest you do as followings:
    1. Check the anonymous access in the site settings-> site permission->Anonymous Access->Entire Web Access.
    2. Check if you have deactived the feature “limited-access user permission lock down mode” feature in site collection feature.
    3. If the issue still exists, I suggest you recreate a calendar to test whether it works.
