I am using an Enhanced Content Query web part and I have provided a CAML in the Query Override section to filter certain items in one list. It works fine for me. But I would like to have one more additional fields to get displayed along with 'Title' and 'Last Modified'. I had modified the Common View Fields: as follows CategoryID,Text CategoryID is one of the fields in my list and is of single line text. Is there anything additionally do I need to do? Any changes in Styles. If yes, can anyone precisely tell me the the exact file and steps.

hi, i´ve got a problem, i cannot delete an item of the list that is listed in my ECQ webpart... i think its a bug, have anyone fix it ??

Hi, I am trying to add an enhanced content query web part programmatically . I tried the ImportWebPart approach of reading the xml but end up getting errors. Any help is highly appreciated. Many Thanks Shobha

Hi, I would like to say this is an excellent tool but I am having some issues. I am having a Form Library and I have few Custom Columns but these are not content types they are just custom columns. I have installed the tool it also displays the document but when I add the Column Name with data type it does not pick those. Is it that the content Query WebPart works only with Content types. Any help would be appreciated because if it does not works then I need to write some code.

Hi, it's almost a year since the beta 2 refresh. From the discussion it appears this project is alive, do you have a release date? Also I note from the screen shots above that Content is spelled as Conent. Little thing I know, not sure if you are publishing with this screen shot or not.

Will this be able to populate all the recurrence events?

Here are the XSLT modifications for a quick and dirty fix -- by quick and dirty I mean it removes all text before and including the first instance of 2 characters ";#". So if you happen to have an instance of ;# somewhere in your data, it will remove that and any text before it. Ok, disclaimer aside, for this I will change the data in the CQWP description - you can modify where necessary. I've mapped the "Name" column to the description and get 1;#default.aspx for my otherwise default settings on CQWP. 1. navigate to the style library (http://<yourserver>/Style Library), click on "XSL Style Sheets" 2. Download a copy of ItemStyle (ItemStyle.xsl) -- click the contextual menu and choose Send to->Download a copy 3. Modify the template you are using (I used default) - Add the following code to the variable section near the top of ItemsStyle.xsl <xsl:variable name="CleanedDescription"> <xsl:call-template name="OuterTemplate.Replace"> <xsl:with-param name="Value" select="@Description" /> <xsl:with-param name="Search" select="concat(substring-before(@Description,';#'),';#')" /> <xsl:with-param name="Replace" select="''" /> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:variable> 4. In the later section where it displays the description change the @description to be $CleanedDescription - as below. 5. Upload your modified style sheet using the "Upload" link from the toolbar and check it in as new versions to existing files. Reload your Content Query webpart and voila - the extra junk is gone. 6. Because the OuterTemplate.Replace XSLT function only exists in ContentQueryMain.xsl this will break your Table Of Contents and Summary Link webparts. To fix this - modify the stylesheets for each. They are in the same library as ItemStyle.xsl. Copy the following code (taken from ContentQueryMain.xsl) into the stylesheet. I'd suggest pasting just before the closing tag (</xsl:stylesheet>). <xsl:template name="OuterTemplate.Replace"> <xsl:param name="Value"/> <xsl:param name="Search"/> <xsl:param name="Replace"/> <xsl:if test="contains($Value,$Search)"> <xsl:value-of select="concat(substring-before($Value,$Search),$Replace)"/> <xsl:call-template name="OuterTemplate.Replace"> <xsl:with-param name="Value" select="substring-after($Value,$Search)"/> <xsl:with-param name="Search" select="$Search"/> <xsl:with-param name="Replace" select="$Replace"/> </xsl:call-template> </xsl:if> <xsl:if test="not(contains($Value,$Search))"> <xsl:value-of select="$Value"/> </xsl:if> </xsl:template> NOTE: This will apply to all Content Query webparts - if you just want this behavior for 1 CQWP, you might consider adding a new template style to the ItemStyle.xsl and just change the Description (or whatever you've mapped your data to) there. Then set your "GroupStyle" property in the webpart to be your custom style.

Unfortunately the 45;# is returned from the query like that. You can modify the XSLT so that it removes that 45;# part.

Hi, Thanks for the new improved content query web part!!! I have used a CAML query (using the QueryOverride property ) to pull a name across onto a subsite. It seems to work ok, except the index for the items on the remote site (the name) appears like so 45:#Derek Ewing, how do i get rid of the 45:#, I have tryed setting the data types as user, but it doesnt seem to work. any ideas ??
