While exploring SharePoint 2013, I came to know that the CallOut Popup displayed only for the following Lists:
- Document Library
- Assert Library
- Images Library
- Pages Library
- Task Lists
And the CallOut Popup did not display for these Lists:
- Custom Lists
- Announcements Lists
- Calendar List
- Discussions List
A gentleman had query on Linked In group as follows:
Any solutions to get the Callout Popups in Announcements List?
I was not able to find the exact answer but did find a post on Learning Sharepoint (. Sorry to say that I was not satisfied with the given answers because of few reasons:
- It retrieves all the announcement list item information and append in another div tag and from there you are able to view the callout Popup.
- It works only with one announcement list at a time. We need to change the list name for each Announcement list.
- Code using ListData.svc. There is a problem:
If there a space within the List name – let’s say My Announcement – we need to pass the list name without space like MyAnnouncement while passing with ListData.svc (What exactly I faced).
I then decided to create some solution and was able to do that. I have created a solution (I have attached wsp file also ):
- Created as SharePoint-Hosted Solution.
- Just deploy and it will for every announcement list.
