Web Part Gallery not displaying any items
We are using the Sharepoint Server 2007. The issue is that the Web Part Gallery does not display any items, it used to display the standard items MsContentEditor.dwp, MsImage.dwp, MSMembers.dwp, MSPageViewer.dwp etc. However since someone accidently edited the Web Part Gallery page its self via the "Edit Page", it now displays nothing. The buttons that had Add etc are no longer displayed either. Does anyone know how to restore it to its original state? Thanks

Thanks for your reply, I have had a look at this and the option for to "Reset to Site Definition" is not available for this file (it is available for other files)

Hi Graham, Open the page in SharePoint Designer (_catalogs/wp/Forms/AllItems.aspx) Make sure code definition Web Part Gallery like this: <IsIncluded>true</IsIncluded> <PartOrder>1</PartOrder> <FrameState>Normal</FrameState> <Height /> <Width /> <AllowRemove>true</AllowRemove> <AllowZoneChange>true</AllowZoneChange> <AllowMinimize>true</AllowMinimize> <AllowConnect>true</AllowConnect> <AllowEdit>true</AllowEdit> <AllowHide>true</AllowHide> <IsVisible>true</IsVisible> <DetailLink>/_catalogs/wp/Forms/AllItems.aspx</DetailLink> <HelpLink /> <HelpMode>Modeless</HelpMode> <Dir>Default</Dir> <PartImageSmall /> <MissingAssembly>Không thê nhâp Web Part nay.</MissingAssembly> <PartImageLarge /> <IsIncludedFilter /> Trying to copy code above & replace.

It sounds like they deleted the list web part in that page. That page has a web part to display that list and it includes the unique IDs (GUIDs) for the library (gallery). So there may be no "easy" way to recreate it. Don't know for sure this will work, but you might try: - go to another site collection an inspect the web part in this page using SharePoint Designer. Note the GUIDs there. - use a tool like SharePoint Manager (from codeplex.com) to find the GUIDs for the gallery in the second site and confirm that they match what was found in the web part - use SharePoint Manager again to find the related GUIDs in the site with the damaged page. - copy the web part HTML/XSLT from the good page into the damaged page and update the GUIDs, test the page and see if it works...
