Issues :

Visual studio 2012 is not correctly showing SharePoint 2013 projects. SharePoint 2013 visual studio projects deploys correctly but the icon in visual studio is not there and when my colleagues checkin their sharepoint project it shows for me that the project is incompatible.

This is the Visual studio version for SharePoint 2013 that i created of this initial code plex project

“Out of the box, Microsoft SharePoint has a very rich set of features, but sometimes you need more, or something a little different, to meet the needs of your project. This article will discuss various methods of presenting the UI for SharePoint list forms, such as the New, Edit, and Display forms used when adding an item to a list, or viewing and editing items.”

This include modifications of Create form only.

To activate the feature :

1. Activate site collection feature named “Code Project List Forms Demo”

2. Create a list based on the list definition named : “CP Project Redering Template Def”

3. The create form will contain the text from the user control “UserControl1” that you can customize, and also from : CPRenderingTemplate (which is the template of the form with save button etc)
