SharePoint 2013 List Column Status Wise Change Row Color Using jQuery

Introduction

This article provides a Requester monitoring list that is easy enough to do in SharePoint. The 3 statuses are an easy visual way of seeing what status each of the requesters was on. The statuses used in this list are:

1. Approved
2. Rejected
3. Pending

These values are populated from a Choice field in the list, but as you can see from the before image below it is not that easy to quickly and easily see what level each of the Requesters are on.

On the Edit page, select the Insert Web Part tab from the Ribbon. From the Categories menu, select Media and Content and then Script Editor from the Parts menu:

Click on the Add button at the bottom of the page to install the Web Part.

Embedding Code to Your Site

• Once the Web Part has been successfully installed on your page, you will see a hyperlink button under the Script Editor labelled EDIT SNIPPET. Click the EDIT SNIPPET link to insert HTML/Script code:
  

  <script type="text/javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.0/jquery.min.js"></script>

  <script type="text/javascript">

  $(document).ready(function () {

  $Text = $("td.ms-cellstyle.ms-vb2:contains('Approved')"); $Text.parent().css("background-color", "#01DF3A");

  $Text = $("td.ms-cellstyle.ms-vb2:contains('Rejected')");

  $Text.parent().css("background-color", "#F90101");

  $Text = $("td.ms-cellstyle.ms-vb2:contains('Pending')");

  $Text.parent().css("background-color", "#EAC117");

  });

  </script>
