I am new to sharepoint and will need you to explain how to with steps.
I have a sharepoint server running and I'm trying to edit the way the page works. I want to make text boxes not required so I can save without having to fill the text boxes. But I can't figure out how to edit the code for these in sharepoint to make that change.
I tried going to that page and looking for an edit button somewhere but there's no edit page or edit html anywhere.
I have a grid which displays data from the SharePoint list.
On clicking of Edit icon, it should display a popup, where it allows users to edit Expiration date and notes field as per below screenshots.
Once user clicks on save, it should save the data back to SharePoint list and grid.
May I know how it can be achieved in SP2013 visual web part?
My requirement is New form should have all fields editable and Edit form should have few fields read-only (Like ID entered by user in New form for the item).
How is it possible through form customization done using Infopath.
You could have a checkbox or any bool control that gets checked when a form is initially filled out and submitted to a SharePoint list, have it change value "on-submit". When the form loads just add a rule that if 'existingForm' (or whatever you name the control) is checked and if it is then disable/or hide the control.
You could disable the controls, or you could hide them completely and display their values through a calculated field/value which is normally hidden.
I would like to have a drop down list box of links to a page so that users can select it and immediately be redirected to that page. How can I achieve this? Is there any such component in PrimeFaces?
You could put the text as the display item and the hyperlink as the selectitem. If you do "onselect" you can go to the hyperlink from your javascript... I think.
I'm trying to make a custom list for inquiries, where users will fill in some information such as "Name", "Reason" etc. When they've finished filling in the information and added the item, the administrator will then go through the item, and fill in some new columns that the user hasn't been able to fill in.
I hope you understand me, otherwise you're more than welcome to ask questions!
With SharePoint designer 2007, you can use the SPSecurityTrimmedControl who enable you to show/hide form field (or site action...).
Syntax :
<SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl PermissionsString="ManageLists" runat="server">
WHAT_YOU_WANT_TO_HIDE_HERE
</SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl>
For the PermissionsString, all values HERE
You'll need to use SharePoint Designer. You will create custom new and edit forms. This way when the user fills in the new form, only certain fields will appear. Then when the administrator edits the item using the edit form, they will have access to more fields.
Please see this link for more information.
Try making a copy of the form you wish to edit by copying and pasting to the same folder. Then click on the web part for the form and the code above will highlight . Look for tags IsVisible and change it from "true" to "false". This will hide the default form. Do not delete the original form.
Click on the web part in the design view then press your right arrow. This will move the cursor to right after the web part but still within the web part zone. Go to the Insert menu, select SharePoint Controls then Custom List form. A small dialog window will appear, select the list name from the first drop down, then select the content type from the second drop down. Finally select which form you want to insert, New, Edit or Display. Click OK. The new form will be displayed under the default form, and you will then see all of the fields in order and you can add or remove as you like.
If one did not want to edit the pages, couldn't one use Jquery to hide the fields? I have done this with SPservices. to check the user credentials if you will and then if matched display the hidden fields... all this is done from a web part...just a thought...I actually learned something great today.. great replies.
