It’s a known issue that if you delete the “Top Navigation” menu through the API in SharePoint 2007, you cannot restore it easily. I came across this problem in one of my development sites. When looking for a solution, I found this article, saying you have to do it through the database.

The code below [...]

Ever wondered why SharePoint “lists web service” (i.e., lists.asmx) lives in an interesting address of http://mossserver/sites/somesite/_vti_bin/lists.asmx ?

This is actually not the only place where you can see the magic _vti_something. I remember myself deleting such directories from “wwwroot” quite often back in the days “everyone” used MS FrontPage. FrontPage used to create the folders “_vti_bin”, [...]

I just found an interesting “feature” in MOSS publishing infrastructure. We’re designing a custom master page for our MOSS portal solution. If I recall correctly, we started with Heather Solomon’s minimal master page, but I’m not really sure.

We swiped out all of the built-in styles and layouts to achieve maximum flexibility and stylability of MOSS [...]

This is rather a question or an idea for a discussion than a regular blog post.

I’m just wondering how does one count LOC in Sharepoint? Or, to be more general, how do you measure the amount of work that has been invested in creating a solution in Sharepoint.

A solution can consist of [...]

Iesākumam

Workflow modificēšanas formas jāveido kā InfoPath XSN formas, nevis kā ASPX formas. InfoPath ir dabūjams pilnajā MSOffice paketē, oficiāli tas piederas pie “Microsoft Office Suites and Applications 2007″ pakas

Pašas formas izveide

Jāveido jauna forma, to veidojot uzreiz vēlams uzstādīt ķeksi “hide features that do not work in InfoPath Forms Services” (saucas kaut kā citādi, bet ideja [...]

Kad uzinstalēsiet Sharepoint valodu paku, par kuru rakstīju iepriekšējā ierakstā un gribēsiet, lai “viss būtu pavisam latviski”, var gadīties vilties tāpat kā man.

SPPS ļauj glīti nomainīt gan “Sort order”, gan “Locale” katram atsevišķam Web vai Site objektam. To dara apmēram šādi. Varam uzstādīt latviešu lokāli un latviešu kārtošanas secību. Rezultātā iegūstam, ka konkrētā vietne [...]

Šodien (31.07.2007) ir nopublicēta latviešu valodas paka, kas paredzēta Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server. Tā pieejama Microsoft lejupielāžu centrā “par velti”, tas ir, licencēšanas noteikumi tie paši vecie. Ļoti ceru, ka tulkojums būs pilnīgs un bez īpaši pamanāmām kļūdām. Lejupielāde: MOSS2007 valodu paka.

Ja nepieciešama valodu paka “plikajam” Windows Sharepoint Services, tā pieejama jau ilgāku laiku.Te gan uzreiz [...]

Šķiet, esmu viens no retajiem LV, kuram šīs lietas vispār interesē, tomēr pastāstīšu – lai jau saglabājas nākotnei.

Kopš šī gada sākuma tīmeklī it bieži tiek pieminēts “jaunais Sharepoint” – visvairāk kā apjūsmojoši ieraksti dažādos blogos, cik ērts gan tas būs. Runa ir par Sharepoint 2007, precīzāk, diviem Sharepoint saimes produktiem – Windows Sharepoint Services (WSS) [...]

I just found out that some operations in my SharePoint application run quite slow when used on lists containing large amounts of listitems. In the particular case it was approximately 2,500 items in the list.

The result is: NEVER use this code construction to find an element by its ID:

oList = oWeb.Lists(“LongList”) [...]

Something on SharePoint(TM) again. Either you love it or hate it, you have to work around all the pitfalls anyway.

So we all know that in SharePoint you can allow people and assign them SharePoint roles in two ways:

creating a “Sharepoint User” within the portal and assigning roles to the user, adding a domain group to [...]
