Wante...Great post, and still very helpful - thanks! Wanted to mention, when editing columns in SharePoint Designer 2013 the Required column is not exposed as it was in the above illustration, but there is a workaround.<br /><br />To get to all of the column properties, copy the ListID from the workflow list properties panel in SPD 2013 (minus brackets), and in your browser access the list settings for a different list on the site. Replace the ListID portion of the URL in your browser location bar, then press Enter.<br /><br />Also worth noting: On a site I was troubleshooting, the workflow library had inherited multiple required fields from changes that someone made to a parent content type, and inadvertently applied to all content types that were based on that parent. Comparing the workflow library settings in a different "clean" collection helped us figure out which columns did not belong. Once we deleted those and changed Title to Optional, we were able to check in the workflow library files and republish, which then made the workflow available to the associated library.<br /><br />-- Tod BeaneUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05907506320496243191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-95879907422503159.post-28946734558746776622015-11-23T02:52:28.282+05:302015-11-23T02:52:28.282+05:30Thank you , after 2 days of searching your solutio...Thank you , after 2 days of searching your solution actually worked.

Problem is in this case I can't navigate to the 'All Files' from Designer for this particular subsite (nothing shown in the view). Even though I have enabled all SharePoint Designer Settings from Web app and Site collection levels. Is there any other way of getting to Workflow settings page? <br />Many thanks in advanced!
