TIP: Show Grouping Toolbar Permanently

Introduction

The Grouping toolbar can be added to any page by choosing the Grouping Toolbar option from the Design tab's Options button.

By default, the Grouping Toolbar is hidden on a web part page until the user clicks the Filter link.

But what if your customer wants this toolbar displayed permanently?  No problem: the following procedure shows you how.

Procedure

  1. Open the page in SharePoint Designer 2010.
  2. Go to the page's code view.
  3. Do a search for the following text:
    <xsl:if test="$dvt_adhocmode = 'filter'" ddwrt:cf_ignore="1">
    .
    .
    .
    </xsl:if>
    
  4. Remove just these lines - but leave the markup encapsulated by this XSL:IF statement.
