SP 2016 - Display list from Parent site in sub-site

sharepoint.stackexchange https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/226651

Pergunta

I need to display a list from a parent (really the site collection) on a sub-site. I've found multiple answers referencing this link. However, this post is from 2012 and discusses a solution for SharePoint 2010.

Does this still work in SharePoint 2016 (on-premise)? If not, is there a replacement solution?

Solução

To show list view from Parent site at subsite in SP 2013 / 2016, You have two options

  1. Using Data View Web Part
  2. Using Content Query Web Part

(1) Using Data View Web Part

  • Open your Parent site via SharePoint Designer 2013.
  • Go to File Site Pages > Create a new Page > Edit in advanced mode.
