<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">if(typeof(MSOLayout_MakeInvisibleIfEmpty) == "function") {MSOLayout_MakeInvisibleIfEmpty();}</script>

</asp:Content>

STEP 5:

Copy and paste the below code in elements.xml.

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">

  <Module Url="$Resources:cmscore,List_Pages_UrlName;" List="101" Name="PageModule">

  <File Url="SamplePage.aspx" Type="GhostableInLibrary" Path="PageModule\SamplePage.aspx">

      <Property Name="Title" Value="My Custom Page"/> <Property Name="ContentType" Value="$Resources:cmscore,contenttype_pagelayout_name;"/>

      <Property Name="PublishingPreviewImage" Value="~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/$Resources:core,Culture;/Preview Images/CustomPageLayout.png, ~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/$Resources:core,Culture;/Preview Images/CustomPageLayout.png"/>

      <Property Name="PublishingAssociatedContentType" Value=";#$Resources:cmscore,contenttype_articlepage_name;;#0x010100C568DB52D9D0A14D9B2FDCC96666E9F2007948130EC3DB064584E219954237AF3900242457EFB8B24247815D688C526CD44D;#"/>

      <AllUsersWebPart WebPartOrder="1" WebPartZoneID="Zone1">

        <![CDATA[

  // Put the exported webpart coding which is shown in Step 10

        ]]

      </AllUsersWebPart>

    </File>

  </Module>

</Elements>

 

STEP 6:

Open the page in site you needed to take back up of the webpart

STEP 7:

Choose Edit webpart

STEP 8:

Choose Export all data in Export Mode in Advanced category

  STEP 9:

When Export is choosen the file will be saved has Wepartname.webpart.Open the file in notepad copy the webpart code and paste in elements .xml .Check Zone 1 id and webpartzoneid in samplepage.aspx  is same.

 STEP 10:

  Open the Elements.xml and paste the below coding
 <AllUsersWebPart WebPartOrder="1" WebPartZoneID="Zone1">

        <![CDATA[

        <webParts>

  <webPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v3">

    <metaData>

      <type name="VCSB.INTRANET.NewsInnerWebpart.NewsInnerWebpart,

      <importErrorMessage>Cannot import this Web Part.</importErrorMessage>

    </metaData>

    <data>

      <properties>

        <property name="AllowZoneChange" type="bool">True</property>

        <property name="ExportMode" type="exportmode">All</property>

      </properties>

    </data>

  </webPart>

</webParts>

       

        ]]>

      </AllUsersWebPart>

STEP 11:

Repeat the process for multiple webparts and paste the below coding in Elements.xml inside <File> tag, if  multiple webparts exist in same page ,rename zone1 to zone2.

<AllUsersWebPart WebPartOrder="1" WebPartZoneID="Zone2">

        <![CDATA[

       <webParts>

  <webPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v3">

      <importErrorMessage>Cannot import this Web Part.</importErrorMessage>

    <data>

      <properties>

        <property name="AllowZoneChange" type="bool">True</property>

        <property name="ExportMode" type="exportmode">All</property>

        <property name="HelpUrl" type="string" />

        <property name="Hidden" type="bool">False</property>

        <property name="TitleUrl" type="string" />

        <property name="AllowClose" type="bool">True</property>

        <property name="ChromeState" type="chromestate">Normal</property>

      </properties>

    </data>

  </webPart>

</webParts>

      

        ]]>

      </AllUsersWebPart>

STEP 12:

If single webpart exist in a page means copy and paste the below code in Elements.xml  and rename the url,path etc.

<File Url="SamplePage.aspx" Type="GhostableInLibrary" Path="PageModule\SamplePage.aspx">

      <Property Name="Title" Value="My Custom Page"/> <Property Name="ContentType" Value="$Resources:cmscore,contenttype_pagelayout_name;"/>

      <Property Name="PublishingPreviewImage" Value="~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/$Resources:core,Culture;/Preview Images/CustomPageLayout.png, ~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/$Resources:core,Culture;/Preview Images/CustomPageLayout.png"/>

      <Property Name="PublishingAssociatedContentType" Value=";#$Resources:cmscore,contenttype_articlepage_name;;#0x010100C568DB52D9D0A14D9B2FDCC96666E9F2007948130EC3DB064584E219954237AF3900242457EFB8B24247815D688C526CD44D;#"/>

      <AllUsersWebPart WebPartOrder="1" WebPartZoneID="Zone1">

        <![CDATA[

        <webParts>

  <webPart xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WebPart/v3">

      <importErrorMessage>Cannot import this Web Part.</importErrorMessage>

    <data>

      <properties>

        <property name="AllowZoneChange" type="bool">True</property>

        <property name="ExportMode" type="exportmode">All</property>

        <property name="Hidden" type="bool">False</property>

        <property name="TitleUrl" type="string" />

        <property name="Description" type="string">My Visual WebPart</property>

        <property name="AllowHide" type="bool">True</property>

        <property name="AllowMinimize" type="bool">True</property>

        <property name="Title" type="string">NewsInnerWebpart</property>

        <property name="ChromeType" type="chrometype">None</property>

        <property name="AllowConnect" type="bool">True</property>

        <property name="Width" type="unit" />

      </properties>

    </data>

  </webPart>

</webParts>

   

        ]]>

      </AllUsersWebPart>

    </File>

STEP 13:

If you want to create page alone copy and paste the below code in Elements.xml 

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">

  <Module Url="$Resources:cmscore,List_Pages_UrlName;" List="101" Name="PageModule">

<File Url="SamplePage.aspx" Type="GhostableInLibrary" Path="PageModule\SamplePage.aspx">

      <Property Name="Title" Value="My Custom Page"/> <Property Name="ContentType" Value="$Resources:cmscore,contenttype_pagelayout_name;"/>

      <Property Name="PublishingPreviewImage" Value="~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/$Resources:core,Culture;/Preview Images/CustomPageLayout.png, ~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/$Resources:core,Culture;/Preview Images/CustomPageLayout.png"/>

      <Property Name="PublishingAssociatedContentType" Value=";#$Resources:cmscore,contenttype_articlepage_name;;#0x010100C568DB52D9D0A14D9B2FDCC96666E9F2007948130EC3DB064584E219954237AF3900242457EFB8B24247815D688C526CD44D;#"/>

     

   </File>
   

<File Url="SamplePage.aspx" Type="GhostableInLibrary" Path="PageModule\Test.aspx">

      <Property Name="Title" Value="My Custom Page"/> <Property Name="ContentType" Value="$Resources:cmscore,contenttype_pagelayout_name;"/>

      <Property Name="PublishingPreviewImage" Value="~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/$Resources:core,Culture;/Preview Images/CustomPageLayout.png, ~SiteCollection/_catalogs/masterpage/$Resources:core,Culture;/Preview Images/CustomPageLayout.png"/>

      <Property Name="PublishingAssociatedContentType" Value=";#$Resources:cmscore,contenttype_articlepage_name;;#0x010100C568DB52D9D0A14D9B2FDCC96666E9F2007948130EC3DB064584E219954237AF3900242457EFB8B24247815D688C526CD44D;#"/>

     

   </File>
</Module> 
</Elements>

 STEP 14:

Deploy the project to the particular site.Now the page and webpart will be created automatically in the  site.Go to Siteactions->View all site content->Pages .Check the page and webpart exists in the site.
