How To View a Sharepoint Page in Web Part Maintenance Mode
I gotta share this little Sharepoint tidbit that I found today whilst debugging a project. I was trying to close a problematic web part on my page, and usually you get an error page that supplies a link to the web page part maintenance page for the specific page you were browsing. For whatever reason, the error that I was running into wouldn’t give me this link, nor could I find the link anywhere in the site admin pages. So I googled it and found what I was looking for at Westin’s Technical Log. If you simply add a
“?contents=1”
to the Sharepoint page you were trying to go to, it will load the page in web part maintenance mode.
