SharePoint (and Project Server) Shenanigans

I am a Project Server and SharePoint consultant but my main focus currently is around Project Server. I have been working with Project Server for nearly five years since 2007 for a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner in the UK, I have also been awared with the Microsoft Community Contributor Award 2011. I am also a certified Prince2 Practitioner. This article has been cross posted from pwmather.wordpress.com (original article)

A quick post to highlight a minor change to the PWA web parts in 2013. I was in the process of creating a new PDP on a 2013 environment and I wanted to add certain custom fields. In 2010 the web part that enabled you to do this was the Project Fields web part:

In 2013 this web part doesn’t exist, well it does but it is no longer called Project Fields, it is now called Basic Info:

It provides exactly the same functionality as the Project Fields web part in 2010.

Hopefully that will save you hunting around for this web part
