Deploying SharePoint Visual Studio does not overwrite display templates on upgrade

  • I have a VS SharePoint project that I put some files in, in this case the templates are displayed.
  • Element.xml elements have ReplaceContent tot TRUE for every FILE record
  • Deployment Conflict Resolution - PROMPT
  • I see that everything is being overwritten.

He renews everything. But sometimes the display template falls back to the old version. On first launch, I go through the pages and see the old javascript code. (so I manually edited the html file to fix it).

I don't have this problem with any other elements in modules, except sometimes with display templates.

Inside the display template I included JavaScript.js Inside the same display template I also had a JavaScript function with the same name



I assume it was skipped and the old version was inserted in place during activation.
