SimpleCEWPInstall Simple CEWP for SharePoint Server 2019 and Office 365


  • Simple CEWP is a SPFx (SharePoint Framework) package containing a web part compatible only with Modern Pages.​

  • Simple CEWP targets SharePoint 2019 On-Premise and Office 365 (aka SharePoint Online).

  • It allows you to add custom content to a modern page (text, images, HTML markup, stylesheets and scripts), in a similar way as OOTB CEWP for Classic Pages does.

  • We provide a file with .sppkg extension, you need to upload and deploy it to your App Catalog (either on-prem or online tenant).

  • Once deployed to the App Catalog, you can install the App into your SharePoint site and use it on your modern pages.

  • As other SharePoint "Apps" for modern sites, they're site-specific, so if you have several sites/sub-sites, you'll need to install the app in every site you want to use the web part.

 

  • SharePoint's App Catalog site must be enabled in your local farm (for SP 2019) or O365 tenant.

  • Admin access to App Catalog site, either farm administrator permissions (for SP 2019 on-prem) or tenant administrator permissions (for Office 365) are required in order to upload and deploy the provided package
