SharePoint 2013: Custom Search, Sorting And Paging Using CSOM

In this particular article I am showing data in tiles format.

So now we can display data in any format and have custom paging, sorting, and search.

For this you require a SharePoint site with Events List. The Events list needs to have the following columns.

Also you need a Location List.This Location List has a Title column which we need to refer to in Events List.

I am attaching both the list templates.



Owner is Title Column.

The Project basically contains a search box and a button and below the data is displayed in horizontal format. At the end you can see custom pager.



The Data is sorted on the basis of Title Column; i.e, Owner.

When you enter a key word in a search box and click on “Search Events”, it searches based on Title (Owner) column.



The code has page size 4 which can be changed.
