Filter web parts are not displaying in Add Web part catalog

Reason:  Your server is not Enterprise version or you did not activate the features. If your server is enterprise version then directly follow the “Enable enterprise Features steps
If  your SharePoint server is not enterprise version then u will not be able to see filter webparts. This means your server is standard version, first update your server to Enterprise version and then you will find filter webparts.

Solution: (Requires Product key to activate to Enterprise version)

1.      Go to Central Administration
2.      Select “Upgrade and Migration” heading.
3.      In Update and Migration page select Enable Enterprise Feature.
4.      Now, select Enterprise option and enter the Product key to activate the feature.

Enable enterprise features

1.      Go to site collection where you want to use filter webparts
2.      Go to site settings
3.      Under Site Collection Administration select site collection features
4.      Activate “SharePoint server enterprise site collection feature” feature.
5.      Now go to the sub-site where you want to use webparts. Then go to Site settings
6.      Go to “Manage site features
7.      Activate "SharePoint server enterprise site feature" feature.
8.      Now go and check whether filter webparts are displaying or not. It will work.


Hope this helps.
