Hide Search Box and Views from List Admin Page in SharePoint 2013

In SharePoint when you click on the List Header or use some other way to navigate to List page you will notice that it will give you a search box on top of your list as well as in SharePoint 2013 it will also show you all the views as links.

This is accepted behavior for most but for some reason some people dont like to see these artifacts. In SharePoint 2010 you probably would have to use CSS hack to hide these unwanted things.

In SharePoint 2013 now you can hide it from list web part setting. Here are the steps you will take to hide them.

1) Navigate to the list page.

2) Click Edit the page and then click Modify Shared Web Part.

3) Under Miscellaneous check “Disable view selector menu” and Uncheck “”

This should get rid of both Views and Search box.

Hope this helps.
