Common Error Messages

List-bound Zenpo web parts map common SharePoint problems to the messages below. Product pages note any wording that differs.

A Retry or Try again button appears with the error. People Directory, Resources Library, and Birthdays and Anniversaries use Retry. Side Navigation, Stats Counter, and Dynamic Blurbs use Try again.

A slow-load notice appears at 8 seconds: Loading is taking longer than expected...

Cached-copy fallback

If SharePoint cannot be reached and a cached copy exists, most products show the last saved copy with a notice such as Showing the last saved copy — SharePoint could not be reached just now.

Caps refuse rather than truncate

When a product has a source cap, an over-cap list is refused. The web part does not silently drop rows. Use a filtered view. See How Zenpo Web Parts Use Your SharePoint Data.
