How to add content editor web part to webpart gallery| Export content editor web part (OOTB in SharePoint)

By default content editor web part is not exporting as *.webpart file as other out-of-the-box(OOTB) web parts, it is exported as *.dwp. Basically dwp file is an element XML file which contains configurations as below;

[code language="xml"]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<WebPart xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v2">
<Title>Content Editor</Title>
<FrameType>Default</FrameType>
...
</WebPart>
[/code]

But if you exported other web part you can be able to to extract it by converting it to *.cab file. It's not required here and you can open it by text editor simply.

Most of the people finding around exporting this since they required to include that in a VisualStudio solution. Following steps can be followed to arrive at that and if you required to add that in a site page, you may bug me via any form of contact method in about section.

Steps as below;

  1. Export the content editor web part (CEWB) i.e. *.dwp

  2. Add→ Existing item→ Select your dwp

  3. Integrate to solution…follow the following steps


Add a module and include your exported file into it



Configure module element.xml



Include that in a feature as below, then you will arrive at below, which you required.

Turn off/ Hide Details panel/ Information Panel on modern SharePoint lists

Not always we require to show changes done by other which is a mandatory feature in SharePoint online.  What is details pane (aka. Information Pane)? Detail pane/ Information shows information regarding the document if you selected a one or its showing recent changes within a list or library. Follow link to Microsoft documentation about details pane. Bad news: Until Microsoft listen to User Voice , there is no straightforward way to enable disable this even you don't want. Good news: We could write a SharePoint framework extension to hack styles until Microsoft give us a permanent solution. How? I found this sample project (Inject CSS into modern SharePoint pages with React) which could reuse to our purpose. Thanks to Hugo for saving my time.  Steps to awesomeness:  Clone the project Resolve dependencies >  npm i Bundle >  gulp bundle --ship Package >  gulp package-solution --ship Upload package into SharePoint App catalog

This little hack will help you to eliminate/ remove duplicates and create a collection of unique values. Sample scenario: Need to send daily summarized notification to assigned approved with pending approval items.
