Display SharePoint lists in Standard, Calendar and Gantt views across sites and site collections without complicated configuration or coding.
SharePoint deployments are continually growing, with new sites being created daily, distributing information all across the SharePoint farm. How can SharePoint site owners effectively share the wealth of knowledge contained in lists and libraries across sites or even site collections while still preserving the presentation views that were so painstakingly constructed?
Cross-Site Display Web Part does just that. Simply add Cross-Site Display Web Part to a Web Part Page in any site and enter the list URL of the list or library to be displayedfrom any site in any site collection. Using the concept of "what you see is what you get" (WYSIWYG), Cross-Site Display Web Part displays the SharePoint list or library just as if you were viewing it in a SharePoint List View. Support for standard list views like Calendar View and Gantt View, as well as support for the specialized views for Discussion Boards and Picture Libraries, means list and library information is presented in the format it was intended to be viewed.
Need to display multiple lists and libraries from different sites or site collections? No problem! Just add a Cross-Site Display Web Part for each list or library you want to display. Each Web Part instance is configured individually so you can easily customize your page to create a cohesive presentation from distributed SharePoint information.
SharePoint is built on the concept of sharing information. Unfortunately, SharePoint architecture limits the ability to easily share information across sites. With Cross-Site Display Web Part, site boundaries are removed with little effort from the SharePoint administratorand no custom coding. In the table below, see how Cross-Site Display Web Part stacks up against the SharePoint Data Form Web Part, the cross-site display feature available in SharePoint Designer.
