Many thanks for the feedback David - very useful. I'll make some time to look properly at this and the 2013 Aysnc - didn't find any problems when I gave it a quick test on 2013 but need to be more thorough.

Cheers...Ryan

Hey Ryan,

I really appreciate the information.

I used the development tools in Chrome to determine what on the page was throwing an error and found that SharePoint function used in a line of code was encountering an error, line 143 in the WebPart,.js file to be exact. I think the root cause of this error, from limited research online, is related to the new asynchronous actions SharePoint 2013 implements that weren't present in 2010 or previous versions. Basically, while the function is finding information, another asynchronous function executes and causes this one to encounter an error. To quickly get around this issue I just commented out that line of code and it works perfectly fine.

Just so it's known, I also ran into another issue when I started trying to use a custom view of my list. When this was implemented, I found that line 93 (the same kind of call found in line 143) of WebPart.js was also causing the same behavior, that being the cards would fail to draw or populate. Again commenting out this line eliminates the issue and allows the code to function properly without error and cards to populate from the list.

Looks to me like the source code for WebPart.js would need to be revisited to fully utilize the new asynchronous performance aspects of SharePoint 2013 functions. Something I would like to do but is beyond my technical skill-set and usage needs of the project.

Regards,
David

Just in case anyone finds it useful:

I got this working by using a custom view for my task list with a custom filter condition written using the SP CAML Query Helper. This isn't as easy as I thought it would be as it involves using the SP Designer to update the view, as the Filter GUI tools for an SP list don't let you create grouped filter conditions like this.

<Query>
    <Where>
        <Or>
            <In>
                <FieldRef Name="Status"/>
                <Values>
                    <Value Type="Text">Not Started</Value>
                    <Value Type="Text">In Progress</Value>
                    <Value Type="Text">Deferred</Value>
                </Values>
            </In>
            <And>
                <Geq>
                    <FieldRef Name="Modified"/>
                    <Value Type="DateTime">
                        <Today OffsetDays="-2"/>
                    </Value>
                </Geq>
                <Eq>
                    <FieldRef Name="Status"/>
                    <Value Type="Text">Completed</Value>
                </Eq>
            </And>
        </Or>
    </Where>
</Query>

The catch to this method is that if items are dragged into the "Completed" column (through Sprello), the adjacent “cards” will have their task items updated to change the Order field and thus update their Modified date, meaning they won't disappear for another 3 days. To work around this, you'd have to only mark items Completed by updating them directly in the list.

Hi Rhartka - thats something that you can do with a SharePoint View (though its not that obvious I'll admit) - then tell SPrello to use that view

As this question is a general SharePoint question (not specific to SPRello) I can't really help with it here (otherwise the volume of support would get out of control and codeplex doesn't put food on the table ;)

If you post your question here you will get a good answer

http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/

Make sure its generic enough about creating a SharePoint view rather than specific to SPrello otherwise they will just send you back here ;)

Cross post a link to your q and if someone doesn't help out in a day or two I'll see what I can do!

Cheers...Ryan

Hello! Sprello has been a wonderful addition to SP for us to track what a very small team is working on. I have a question about it using it with a simple Task List. We are using the default Status field (Not Started, In Progress, Completed, Deferred) to organize tasks with cards. The issue we're running into is the Completed items are starting to pile up. Is there a way to tell Sprello not to display Completed cards that are older than so many days? I tried configuring a view in the list but I couldn't find that capability with a view either.

Hi David,

The only thing I can do to help here is give a few pointers - you've made large changes to the project (VS2012/.NET4.5 etc) so the problem could be anywhere.

I would start looking into this by using the IE Developer toolbar to find out what JavaScript is erroring (and also try stepping through the functions line by line) and what the difference is between the normal/edit modes - that will give you some clues.

Good luck!...Ryan

Hello,

I recompiled the SPrello solution using VS 2012 to target version 4.5 of the .NET Framework and now everything builds and deploys fine.

However; I've now found that setup and configuration of the SPrello Web part on my Sharepoint 2013 sites goes fine and everything populates from my Custom List created but when I save the site after configuring the SPrello Web Part, the Web Part shows on the site page but does not populate with cards. Also, selecting the Add New Item also shows no action. Again, if I select to Edit the site, the Web Part then shows properly with the expected cards corresponding to my list.

This is not the case if a Calendar Web Part is also on the page, if this item also exists, then the cards do populate on the SPrello Web Part and the Add New Item option pops up the expected window for adding a new card.

I wonder if this has to do with a rendering issue or something with the Web Part. I found in the source code that the card objects are set with a default size of 200x600 pixels if I remember correctly. Can anyone shed some light as to what may cause this behavior or specific sections or components of the source I should investigate to determine the root cause?

Regards,
David

Created Issue: Strange thing happen [21]

Hi,

We have Sharepoint 2010 installed.... We have Sprello installed and configured on partial custom list... Task list where we had some column and change title of others... when we drag and drop Item... it seem to work fine... but if I refresh the page... Sprello change the statut column, type as: String to number which represent the order of the string field

Commented Issue: Sprello is undefined in version 1.0.3.0 [20]

rcspusr — Thu, 21 Mar 2013 14:46:32 GMT

I installed Sprello (v. 1.0.3.0) on SP2010, a few days ago but have not been able to get it to work.

I created a web part page and added Sprello to the page as the only web part. After I configured the part, all icons on the ribbon went gray so I was unable to click on the Close Edit button. If I delete Sprello, the ribbon comes back. If, instead of deleting Sprello, I navigate away from the page and then navigate back to it, Sprello appears on the page, but it is empty. Exposing the console window, and clicking on the ribbon to see the page options, I get the "SCRIPT5009: 'Sprello' is undefined" error that, according to the comments on the Documentation page, was fixed with release 1.0.1.0. I also do not get the ribbon, so the page is uneditable, until I delete Sprello.

I followed the example in the video as I configured the list. I used the standard Issues list, with the following configuration:
List: Issues
Category Field: Priority
Order Field: Order
Title Field: Title
Detail Field: Description
On card click show: Display_Form
I am not allowing adding

Priority is a choice field and order is a numeric field.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Comments: Re-installed and working. Thanks for the help.

New Post: Error : Version conflict.

Pentalogic — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 10:07:53 GMT

Hi Thorizan - thanks for reporting that but its a very strange error that I've not been able to re-produce nor has anyone else reported the same so my first instinct is to wonder if the site collection thing is a red herring? (I just can't begin to imagine what would cause what your describing - site collections are totally independent of each other).

Can you take another look at this to determine if it may be something else.

Can you remove SPRELLO and then upload/activate it to another site collection - (one that is currently failing) - if its anything to do with the order then this one should now work and the others fail.
On the site collections that its failing on do you have any workflow/event receivers/auditing running that would make a modification to a list item after it was submitted
Are the list types and setups (including things like versioning/approval) identical in the failing and working site collections?

New Post: Error : Version conflict.

Thorizan — Wed, 20 Feb 2013 00:23:34 GMT

This is an excellent Solution, but I seem to have one issue with it.

Only on the original site collection to which I uploaded and activated this solution can I move multiple items without the need to refresh my screen between each.

All others behave like this:

The first item I move is fine ("Update succeeded...").
Every item after that, however, is not ("Error : Version conflict.").

I am perplexed.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

I really love this webpart, very easy and nice to use.

As an additional development it would be amazing if it could include a filter/bread crumb that shows the different views availble from the SP List. This would then allow the user to switch between the differnt views of a list without having to create a page and webpart for each view.
