How to show prompt alert box in Excel add-ins using Office Js?

I'm new to office js. Just I need to show prompt alert box using office Js but Javascript alert not working inside office js. Can someone help me to do this?
Expected alert box
You can use the Office dialog API to open dialog boxes in your Office Add-in.
To open a dialog box, your code, typically a page in a task pane, calls the displayDialogAsync method and passes to it the URL of the resource that you want to open. The page on which this method is called is known as the "host page". For example, if you call this method in script on index.html in a task pane, then index.html is the host page of the dialog box that the method opens.
The resource that is opened in the dialog box is usually a page, but it can be a controller method in an MVC application, a route, a web service method, or any other resource. The page or website refers to the resource in the dialog box. The following code is a simple example:
Office.context.ui.displayDialogAsync('https://yourAddinDomain/yourDialog.html');
Read more about that in the Use the Office dialog API in Office Add-ins article.

Custom Ribbon tab missing in Excel

I tried searching for this question but couldn't really find a similar problem.
I have an excel file in which I created a custom ribbon tab and made copies of this file.
Image of the tab
In some of those copies, the tab has gone missing. I was earlier using Excel 2016 and recently migrated to Microsoft 365 and downloaded the latest version of Office. I am not sure if this is causing the problem since some files do still have the custom ribbon.
Thanks a lot for your help in advance.
Regards
Do you get any UI errors when the tab is missed?
By default, if an add-in attempts to manipulate the Microsoft Office user interface (UI) and fails, no error message is displayed. However, you can configure Microsoft Office applications to display messages for errors that relate to the UI. You can use these messages to help determine why a custom ribbon does not appear, or why a ribbon appears but no controls appear.
To show VSTO Add-in user interface errors you need:
Start the application.
Click the File tab.
Click Options.
In the categories pane, click Advanced.
In the details pane, select Show VSTO Add-in user interface errors, and then click OK.
If you deal with documents with embedded customizations, make sure the protected mode is off when the document is opened. See What is Protected View? for more information.

Sharepoint server publishing feature was activated but not show hide ribbon in Site Actions

Sharepoint server publishing feature was activated on one of my SharePoint sites, but it's not showing hide ribbon in Site Actions.
Also when we edit the page, it's appending the parameters “?PageView=Shared&InitialTabId=Ribbon.WebPartPage&VisibilityContext=WSSWebPartPage” to the address bar insted of "?ControlMode=Edit&DisplayMode=Design".
NB : In the navigation setting the "Ribbon" and "Hide Ribbon" commands are already set as "true"
Your issue seems to be similar to that reported here:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/ie/en-US/35c7f486-2b20-4129-b461-65b147a4490e/when-editing-the-page-in-sharepoint-we-cannot-edit-the-content-area-and-we-need-to-click-on-save-and?forum=sharepointgeneral
We found your issue and the solution because when our users edited a sharepoint online page they got take to
intranet/pages/somepage.aspx?PageView=Shared&InitialTabId=Ribbon.WebPartPage&VisibilityContext=WSSWebPartPage
Which showed them a view of the page with no ribbon and no ability to edit the content.
On some pages they were shown the ribbon. In thoses cases they still couldn't edit the content until they clicked the "save and keep editing" option from the ribbon save button. When they did this they were taken to
intranet/pages/somepage.aspx?ControlMode=Edit&DisplayMode=Design
After going through the solution outlined on technet (turn publishing off and turn it on again) our users now experience : edit page taking them to full ribbon, and editable content without a URL suffix i.e. they end up at the following when they edit the page
intranet/pages/somepage.aspx
Hope this helps someone

SP2013 - Adding a Content Editor web part to a custom layout page

In sharepoint 2013, I have 2 custom layout pages:
1 associated with Content Type = Article Page, and
1 associated with Content Type = Welcome Page.
I add a Web Part zone to both layout pages.
I create a web page from either layout page.
When I edit the web page to fill in the Web Part zone, no Web Part zone appears and this appears in its place: $Resources:core,ContentEditorWebPartTitle;
Any clues?
Thanks.
I'm adding the steps of my process hoping that may make things clearer:
access desired site.
went to Design Manager
clicked "Edit Page Layouts"
clicked desired custom page layout
clicked "Snippets"
clicked "Web Parts / Media and Content"
clicked "Content Editor"
clicked "Copy to Clipboard"
then
opened custom page layout (.html) in Sharepoint Designer 2013
copied the clipbboard contents within the "asp:ContentPlaceHolder" tags
saved
then
returned to browser
went back to "Design Manager"
and "Publish a Major Version" of the custom layout page
then
clicked "Add a Page"
goto "Page" tab
click "Page Layout"
select my custom layout page
then scroll to examine my new page (while in "Edit" mode)
result
I see the text "$Resources:core,ContentEditorWebPartTitle;",
but no box for adding content.
Thanks
Im new to Sharepoint myself, but this sounds like your snippet might be wrong. If you can access the snippet manager, how to do this is on MSDN SharePoint 2013 Design Manager snippets.
Then what you want to do is create the snippet using the snippet manager, try the Content Editor inside the Media and Content section, you can then add this to your MasterPage inside the MainContent user control.
You could try adding this snippet to your PageLayout.html instead of MasterPage.html in place of the current web part thats failing, to see if that works.
Remove the web part zones from your layout pages.
Open the layout page in design manager and navigate to snippet manager.
Copy the snippet for web part zone and place them in the layout as desired.
Publish the layout.
Hope this will help to resolve your issue
Your problem is on Step#10 you should put your code inside the following tag:
asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolderMain" runat="server"

Multiple ModificationForms in Sharepoint Workflow

i am working on a Sharepoint Server 2007 Statemachine Workflow. Until now i have a few states and an custom Association/InitiationForm which i created with InfoPath 2007.
At the moment i have a Problem with Modification forms. The modification link in the state page of my workflow is shown and leads on click to my InfoPath form. If i click the "Submit" button the form is closed. Everything works fine.
Now i tried to add a second ModificationForm to my workflow. So i created a new InfoPath form and added it in the same way to the workflow as the first one. The workflow has no errors in the building or deploying-process.
But if i now try to click the second Modification link in the state page the form is not shown. Instead of my form the text: "The form has been closed." is shown.
I looked in the central administration and the InfoPath form is know under "Manage form templates". I gave every Modification in the Workflow.xml his own Guid. I used the following ModificationUrl: ModificationUrl="_layouts/ModWrkflIP.aspx"
Does anybody know step by step how to use two or more ModificationForms in my workflow?
Thank you in advance.
Thank you very much. I found the following Error Message in the Logfile:
"Form load failed with a validation error"
I searched in the web for solutions for this problem and fount this site:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/sharepointworkflow/thread/83264f93-ebe3-49ec-bd6b-95ee02df4d8a/
I had two sceme files and i just schould use one for both forms. So i had to use the same data source. That was all. Thank you for the hint.
Look in your ULS logs for the error message. It will be listed there 100%. The category is "Forms Services" - the logs are located under the 12 hive in LOGS\
