Validating Password based on nested IFstatements and FIND function Problem

I am having trouble figuring out how to validate multiple special characters in SharePoint 2010 when a user inputs a password. The special characters that are allowed are: !@$*+ . When i have one IF statement such as: =IF(FIND("!",Password),TRUE) , it works just fine and will inform the user there is no "!" if it isnt entered.

My problem is finding out how to enter in multiple IF statements to valid if any of the following special characters:!@$*+ are entered.

If i do a IF statement saying: =IF(OR(FIND("!",Password),TRUE),IF(FIND("@",Password),TRUE) it will only validate and allow passwords when both the !@ specials characters are entered, when it needs only one of the special characters to be correct, not both. Any help would appreciated, thanks!

Referencing JS and CSS in sandbox web parts error

I am trying to reference JS and CSS files in sandbox web part, but once I try to deploy it gives me this error:

The expression prefix 'SPUrl' was not recognized. Please correct the prefix or register the prefix in the section of configuration.

I am referencing my css and js this way:

<SharePoint:ScriptLink Name="<% $SPUrl:~sitecollection/style library/assets/js/modernizr.js %>" ID="modernizr" runat="server" ></SharePoint:ScriptLink>
<SharePoint:CssRegistration ID="CssRegistration1" Name="<% $SPUrl:~sitecollection/style library/assets/css/style.css %>" runat="server" After="corev15.css" ></SharePoint:CssRegistration>

Ways to route documents to a secure location in SharePoint Online 2013

I'm looking for a solution to allow for a a document to be uploaded by a user with a limited about of permissions. I'd like this document be to routed to another location into a folder. I was looking at another document repository for the final location the file ends up in. But If there is another way to move it to a secure location in differ folder depending on who uploaded it that would be even better.

I'm hoping to find a solution that doesn't require any code modification and can use build in tools or apps. I really appreciate any help.

Covert routing style .NET app to SharePoint-online hosted app

We have a on-premises IIS hosted web application that uses route information to fetch data from web service and display content to users. For instance, a news URL will look like:

http://ift.tt/1tM5AYH

-which is basically http://www.contoso.com/ {news controller} / {article-id}

All code in existing application is already just HTML/JavaScript, except for Routing.

Now that we have SharePoint 2013 online, and contoso.com will ultimately become a SharePoint site collection, I'm trying to find a way to keep the URLs same.

I realize that there is no way to add routes to the SharePoint 2013 online site collection. Additionally, Apps for SharePoint created via Visual Studio do not allow any server side code and only HTML + JavaScript if deployed using the SharePoint-hosted model.

So are we left with on-premises hosted SharePoint app - which allows arbitrary programming technology - BUT which requires an on-premises SharePoint installation - which basically means two SharePoint environments?

Or is there are simpler way of doing this?

How to filter for files using rest api ( sharepoint online )?

Custom domain name of SharePoint 2013 app

Let's say our SharePoint 2013 online url is http://ift.tt/1wO5r22

Is it possible to add a subsite (like an application under IIS website) that launches a SharePoint app?

I created a sample SharePoint 2013 app in Visual Studio and deployed it to SharePoint online, and got a long isolated url like http://ift.tt/1tLLYUA

I'm wondering if the app can be accessed under the same root domain as shown in the picture below, something like http://ift.tt/1wO5r24.

If this is not possible, how are users supposed to access the app? Like the developer provides the isolated domain link to the app in a page?

   How can I present that report on an my SPO page to users? I've tried to upload to do library and dashboard page on an SPO Bi Site and it only wants to download the file. Must users need to have a Power Bi license to view the page/report?

Why does .get_title() called from an (SPOnline) App-Web return an incorrect Localized DisplayName?

Can someone please explain me where I go wrong with the testcode (all the way the bottom)

I develop ViewMaster365.com Apps [using Microsoft Napa! so I can not do anything with .Net code] which Create Calculated Columns in the Host-Web; so in the Formulas I need to use Localized DisplayNames on non-english sites.

MSDN documentation for Field.get_title() says: Gets or sets value that specifies the display name of the field.

But On the same non-english Subsite get_title() returns different results when run directly in the site compared to when run from an App.

Steps to reproduce:

Run code in a teamsite

1. Create a non-english Locale subsite I used German in my example, its not my own language but can read it


2. Run the script below in Chrome Snippets

This produces the results I expect, get_title() gets me the localized DisplayName

Run code from an App-web

1. [install an (english¿) App with read rights in]


2. Now open the App in that same subsite (now Host-web)


3. Run the script below in Chrome Snippets the script is now accessing the subsite through the App-web

Now get_title() returns me the DisplayName as if the site was an English Locale;

!! extracting the DisplayName from the SchemaXml clearly shows the correct DisplayName !!

It looks to me like get_title() returns the Locale DisplayName of the App Web instead of the Host-Web.. (I have not tested what happens with an App which is not in english.. couldn't find one; and with Napa I can only create english Apps)

Test code

Code to be run as Chrome Snippets (or any way you want it)

try-catch is used to try App code first; if it fails it defaults to the current ClientContext

    var listName='Tasks';
    var reportDIV=document.getElementById('DeltaPlaceHolderMain');
    var listTitle='<h1>'+listName+'</h1>';
    reportDIV.innerHTML=listTitle;
    var context,web;
    JSRequest.EnsureSetup();
    try{
        context = new SP.ClientContext(decodeURIComponent(JSRequest.QueryString["SPAppWebUrl"]));
        var appContextSite = new SP.AppContextSite(context, decodeURIComponent(JSRequest.QueryString["SPHostUrl"]));
        web = appContextSite.get_web();
    } catch(e){
        context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
        web=context.get_web();    
    }
    listTitle+='<h2>context.get_url() = '+context.get_url()+'</h2>';
    var fields=web.get_lists().getByTitle( listName ).get_fields();
    context.load(fields);
    context.executeQueryAsync(
        function(){
            var fieldEnumerator = fields.getEnumerator();
            var rows=0,table='<tr><td><b>get_internalName()</b></td><td><b>get_title()</b></td><td><b>DisplayName from get_schemaXml()</b></td></tr>';
            while (fieldEnumerator.moveNext()) {
                var field=fieldEnumerator.get_current();
                var DisplayName = field.get_schemaXml().split('DisplayName="')[1].split('"')[0];
                var Title=field.get_title();
                Title = DisplayName!=Title ? '<b style="color:red">'+Title+'</b>' : Title;
                var cols = []; cols.push( field.get_internalName() , Title , DisplayName );
                table+='<tr style="background-color:#E0E7F'+(rows++%2?1:10)+'"><td>'+cols.join('</td><td>')+'</td></tr>';
            }
            reportDIV.innerHTML=listTitle+'<table width=100%>'+table+'</table>';

Cannot find "Site Collection Storage Management" in SharePoint Online 2013

Our Microsoft TAM has told us of a recently deployed feature in SPO that allows all sites to shared a single pool of automatically managed storage. However the section of the admin panel he is telling me to use (named above) does not appear for me at all. This MS blog post also explains how to turn this feature on. The section highlighted simply is not there in my admin panel. I asked him for more information and here is his response (exact quote, except for the delinkifying the urls):

Enable self service http: http://ift.tt/1uSO42K and http: office.com/teachers will add an additional 750TB of pooled SharePoint Online storage.

I am thinking he skipped a couple of indefinite articles in that sentence. He seems to be telling me to permission my farm to allow users to create their own sites (which I already do), then go to two sites (both of which redirect to the same SPO login page), and then my 750TB will automagically appear. I have spent the last hour crawling through all the Site Features, Site Collection Features, and anything else I could think of. I still cannot figure out what he is telling me.

Coming to this community in hopes of avoiding humiliating myself front of my TAM. Please save me from this terrible fate.

  I went to design manager to grab a snippet called "Content Search" which is under Dynamic Content from the ribbon.

  I took this snippet, created a custom query, and placed it within my custom page layout and published this page.

How do I rewrite the domain in Sharepoint 2010 when "www" is missing in the request path?

<rule name="Vanity URL" stopProcessing="true">

  </conditions>
  <action type="Redirect" url="http://ift.tt/1yNowCc" appendQueryString="false" redirectType="Found" />

PWA Project Site List Web Part Closed And Re-added - Datasheet View Disabled

On our PWA instance, we have a master template which defines the SharePoint Project Site layouts. On this template, we have a list web part, which is editable in Datasheet View.

On a particular project, a user closed the list web part. After re-adding it, Datasheet View is disabled. The tooltip reads - "This control is currently disabled. You might not have the right permission level to use this, you might need to select an object or item, or the control might not work in this context."

I've ensured that List Settings -> Advanced Settings -> "Allow items in this list to be edited using the datasheet" is enabled, and tried toggling it off and back on to no effect. I've also verified that I have permissions to edit the list - I'm logged in as admin.

I'm using IE9 and able to access Datasheet View on other projects (where the list web part wasn't closed) in the same IE instance, so it's not browser settings.

Add New Calendar item default All Day Event

Is there any way to make "All Day Event" the default for adding a new calendar item without running a script. Our environment does not allow scripts to run so I cannot use the jquery.min.js to perform that, so I needed to know if there are any other methods to set this up? Below is what I was trying to use and it didn't work so I'm assuming it was because our environment doesn't allow scripts to run. I followed the process on this link: http://ift.tt/1veNy2h I copied the jquery-2.1.1.min.js to our documents folder first then added the following script to "Edit HTML sSource" in content editor which I added to the list page for the calendar:

<script src="http://PATH/Documents/jquery-2.1.1.min.js"        
type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function(){$('#ctl00_ctl34_g_269284a8_768b_44ec_b1e1_43bd1b219be7_ctl00_ctl05_ctl06_ctl00_ctl00_ctl04_ctl00_ctl00_AllDayEventField').attr("checked","checked"); // checks All Day Event

Deploying an HTML App to Multiple Sites

I am developing an HTML app for SharePoint Online. This will be a hybrid app which will consist of an HTML page, JavaScript and CSS files, and image resources.

This app will be hosted on a page in a content editor web part - The HTML file will be linked to the content editor web part. It will use ECMAScript CSOM to communicate with SharePoint and use jQuery for performing some DOM manipulations on the page. Since I have to do DOM manipulations in the host site, I cannot opt for a SharePoint-hosted app (which runs in an iframe).

I want some opinions on how to distribute this app to multiple sites so that users can easily use it.

One option that I have thought of is to create a provider-hosted app and perform remote provisioning -

1. Manually configure the content editor web part in any one site and export it as a DWP file.


2. Modify the DWP file and add a token for dynamically replacing the HTML file's path per site.


3. Iterate through each site I want to deploy to (List of sites can be stored in a configuration file).


4. Deploy all the required resources to each site, along with the DWP file (to the web parts gallery). Before deploying the DWP file, replace the HTML file path token with the actual site URL.


5. Users will be able to see the web part when they click "Add a Web Part" in an edited page.

But, I am thinking if there is some other way this can be achieved. Because, I can deploy the current package to 1000 sites today, through the approach mentioned above, but what if some user wants to use it in 1001th site? I will have to run the remote provisioning again and deploy the required artifacts.

What I'm struggling with is how I can use these claims to control authorizations within my site? I do not want to directly assign a user, by email, into a SharePoint group. Instead I would like to interrogate a claim to determine group membership.

Why my grid doesn't have rows when I load my werbpart?

Scenario: - Webpart with MultiView control. I have some GridView controls inside some of the Views. All these views are NOT the view showed when we load the webpart for the first time. - The idea is to translate all the ASP.Net controls in the Page_Load event.

Problems: - When I call the translation function without testing the post back, the first translation is ok, but after that the texts became blank. I understand this occurs due to the fact I changed the control text, and as the control has EnableViewState = true, the next time the page is loaded it passes the already-translated text to be translated again, and as I don't have the translation for the already translated text, it becomes blank. - If I only call the translation when it' not a postback, then the controls that are not presented in the first time (remember, they are in other Views than the first one) do not translate properly.

The solution I see right now is to create a ViewState flag to control the translation for each grid, so I can guarantee it is translated just once, but it does sound strange.

Can anybody see a different way to do this?

Please do not answer with things like "use Resources", because I can't change this translation schema, it is mandatory in this case to NOT use resources.

[EDIT]: I tried using the RowCreated event to translate the header, and it worked at first. But when I go to another View of my MultiView and come back, the headers have the original untranslated value. Still working for a way to KEEP the translation.

Sharepoint 2010 - Make assigning users easier

we are using Sharepoint 2010 and maintaining an Action Item/Issue tracker list (for a limited number of people, <10). To make assigning Action Items to users easier I want to implement to option to either click on checkboxes

[ ] Jan [ ] Chris [ ] Sara

to select to whom to assign this task or to use the Sharepoint lookup and maintain a list of users (with 2 rows, one row saying Jan and the other one containing the link to this person) tasks can be assigned to in a seperate list (better option in my opinion).

I then want to use a Workflow to map the list with names to the real "Assigned to" field shown in the Action Item entry. This is where I'm currently stuck, I tried various options but they all don't work because I cannot do String modifications.

Anyone has a solution how to implement this?

Thanks and BR Orbit.

Is there a SharePoint plugin/tool like this?

I am fairly new to SharePoint. This is for a design-build construction company. Currently our design team and office staff create/update files on a network drive. Once they are ready they have to upload them to SharePoint for the field staff and external contractors. So basically they store the files in two separate locations and anytime they update one they have to copy over the other to make sure both are up to date. I am wanting to move all files to SharePoint but upper management hates the idea of changing what we currently have in place. They have always used a network drive and do not want to move away from it.

My question is, is there a tool that we can put in place that allows SharePoint to pull documents from a network location. When a change is made either on SharePoint or on the network share it is updated in both places?

SBS 2011: can't open web-based Sharepoint Designer

I'm quite a newbie with Sharepoint, so please bear with me if I can't even ask the question appropriately...

We installed SBS 2011 (Sharepoint 2010) a couple of years ago and it's running fine. We never used Sharepoint features.

Now we wanted to explore Workflow features so I went to http://sites and logged in as a Sharepoint administrator (successfully).

My problem is that whenever I need to go into the web-based Sharepoint Designer, I get an error. The designer is active on the server, it should be available at https://sites:987, but I always get Connection reset when I browse to that address.

I even tried momentarily bringing down the Server Firewall to check if it was a firewall problem, but the same thing happens...

A distinctive circumstance of this server is that it is not connected to the Internet (that's a company requirement, I can connect occasionally for updates, but not permanently). I've been told this shouldn't be a problem for what I'm trying to do.

Can you please advise, and help me troubleshoot? Thank you.

Content Search Webpart - Return Sites - Customer Template

What property filter should I use in the content search webpart to return sites created using my customer site template?

Here is what I use now which returns all subsites under current site:

path:{Site} contentclass:STS_Web Site<>{Site.URL} UrlDepth<4 

I used JSOM and got the Site Title and Site Name using get_title() and get_id() function and hence I know the title and Id of my custom site template. I tried the these values in SiteTemplate, SiteTemplateId, WebId properties in the search webpart using contains and equals conditions but I do not get any results when I use this condition.

SharePoint Online Iterating through Document Libraries CSOM

I am trying to iterate though a document library and set each document/items whithin to inherit permissions (at the moment each doc/item is using uniquer permissions).

I am able to get the specific document library that I am interesting in, however I cannot at the moment iterate though each of the items/documents within it, but here is what I have so far:

Add-Type -Path "Libraries\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.dll" 
Add-Type -Path "Libraries\Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Runtime.dll" 
Add-Type -Path "Libraries\Microsoft.SharePoint.Linq.dll"
Add-Type -Path "Libraries\Microsoft.SharePoint.dll"

$webUrl = "http://ift.tt/1yJKrtK" 
$username = "####"
$password = "####"
$securePass = ConvertTo-SecureString $password -AsPlainText -Force
$listname = "TestDoc";

$ctx = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext($webUrl)
$ctx.Credentials = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials($username, $securePass)


$web = $ctx.Web
$lists = $web.Lists
$ctx.Load($lists)
$ctx.Load($web)
$ctx.ExecuteQuery()


write-host `n "Web Url:" `n $web.Url

foreach ($list in $lists)
{

    if ($list.Title -eq "TestDoc")
    {
        #print list name if found
        write-host `n "Found the list:" `n $list.Title `n


            #attempting to iterate through items in the document library 
            foreach ($item2 in $list.Items)
            {
                #list the items/documents  in the document library
                write-host $item2.Title 
            }


    }
}

It is the foreach loop I am having trouble at the moment as I am not sure how to loop though each of the items/documents in the document library.

Any suggestions on the approach I should take would be much appreciated.

Add Custom Web Part to newly created page programmatically

I created a custom web part for SharePoint 2013 and I would like it to be added to a blank page that is created for it.

I looked it up and found out, that the I can add an Event Receiver to the Feature, so I added one, but the event receiver is never fired.

The event that I tried was the FeatureActivated and FeatureInstalled .

Do I have to set some kind of special properties for the project to make the event handlers work?

Is there any other way to create a blank sharepoint web page and add a custom web part to it programmatically?

Error with Provider Hosted App on Edit Form of a list item

We have an error on the Edit Form of one of our pages.

We have developed a SharePoint Online Provider Hosted app which replaces the standard edit form of a list item and has some further events behind the save button. Since this is rather new territory for us, we're using a roundabout way of achieving this by using a script editor web part to display an iFrame of our app. That way we can pass the Url through to our app and retrieve query strings from them.

Our issue comes quite intermittently in that we sometimes get a "web page cannot be found" error or sometimes a "resource cannot be found" error, however, when we load another app on the site (from the same app project, but using an app part), then go back to the Edit Form, the information in the iFrame suddenly renders.

Any ideas on what might be causing this issue at all? Ideally, we should be rendering the app to the Edit Form is the proper manner, rather than scripting an iFrame that points to out app in Azure. Would this be the cause of the problem?

Thanks

How to reverse GrantAccessToProcessIdentity("Domain/User")?

In our SP2013 on-premise farm, we have two web applications. One for standard team sites and one for MySiteHost. These 2 web application are running under two different IIS app pool with two different identity.

Users followed some sites. The users can post newsfeed directly from their Mysite to those team site's newsfeed. However, they encountered error. After investigation, (refer to this site) I ran follow scripts:

$wa= Get-SPWebApplication $WebApp_MySite
$wa.GrantAccessToProcessIdentity($ID_WebApp)
$wa= Get-SPWebApplication $WebApp
$wa.GrantAccessToProcessIdentity($ID_WebApp_Mysite)

It seems fix the problem. However someone told me I don't need to run last 2 lines. It grants unncessary permission to users.

My question is, how can I reverse what I have done?

ImpersonationLevel setting in webservice all

I have a c# client in windows which interact with SharePoint server using WebService calls such as GetListItems. There can be multiple way to call the webservice. I am using web reference proxy class(which uses .net aspx) to call the SharePoint Webservice.

Please tell me if there is way to set the Impersonation Level before calling the webservice.

I know that when we create Service reference proxy class using WCF it has a way to set the impersonation level. We can set AllowedImpersonationLevel value to TokenImpersonationLevel.Impersonation. But I am not using WCF but I need similar functionality.

The SharePoint server is on the another domain and has custom code written and that is why impersonation is required.

Logon authentication

We have a domain in our environment name "Roofing" in which SharePoint is installed.

We are not able to login if the domain name is case sensitive. for ex: if i use the user name as:

   ROOFING\Shinyj ( WITH CAPS)

i will receive the same logon page again to enter password.

But if i use the user name as: Roofing\Shinyj ( without CAPS) I works fine.

Hope you got an idea now.

This happens to all the users who have access to the Site.

Do i need to have some specific settings in my environment to have it work anyways.

Appreciate your response.

Why does .get_title() called from an (SPOnline) App-Web return an incorrect Localized DisplayName?

Can someone please explain me where I go wrong with the code (all the way the bottom)

On the same non-english Subsite get_title() returns different results when run directly in the site compared to when run from an App.

Steps to reproduce:

Run code in a teamsite

1. Create a non-english Locale subsite I used German in my example, its not my own language but can read it


2. Run the script below in Chrome Snippets

This produces the results I expect, get_title() gets me the localized DisplayName

Run code from an App-web

1. [install an (english¿) App with read rights in]


2. Now open the App in that same subsite (now Host-web)


3. Run the script below in Chrome Snippets the script is now accessing the subsite through the App-web

Now get_title() returns me the DisplayName as if the site was an English Locale; extracting the DisplayName from the SchemaXml clearly shows the correct DisplayName.

It looks to me like get_title() returns the Locale DisplayName of the App Web instead of the Host-Web.. (I have not tested what happens with an App which is not in english.. couldn't find one)

Test code

Code to be run as Chrome Snippets (or any way you want it)

try-catch is used to try App code first; if it fails it defaults to the current ClientContext

    var listName='Tasks';
    var reportDIV=document.getElementById('DeltaPlaceHolderMain');
    var listTitle='<h1>'+listName+'</h1>';
    reportDIV.innerHTML=listTitle;
    var context,web;
    JSRequest.EnsureSetup();
    try{
        context = new SP.ClientContext(decodeURIComponent(JSRequest.QueryString["SPAppWebUrl"]));
        var appContextSite = new SP.AppContextSite(context, decodeURIComponent(JSRequest.QueryString["SPHostUrl"]));
        web = appContextSite.get_web();
    } catch(e){
        context = new SP.ClientContext.get_current();
        web=context.get_web();    
    }
    listTitle+='<h2>context.get_url() = '+context.get_url()+'</h2>';
    var fields=web.get_lists().getByTitle( listName ).get_fields();
    context.load(fields);
    context.executeQueryAsync(
        function(){
            var fieldEnumerator = fields.getEnumerator();
            var rows=0,table='<tr><td><b>get_internalName()</b></td><td><b>get_title()</b></td><td><b>DisplayName from get_schemaXml()</b></td></tr>';
            while (fieldEnumerator.moveNext()) {
                var field=fieldEnumerator.get_current();
                var DisplayName = field.get_schemaXml().split('DisplayName="')[1].split('"')[0];
                var Title=field.get_title();
                Title = DisplayName!=Title ? '<b style="color:red">'+Title+'</b>' : Title;
                var cols = []; cols.push( field.get_internalName() , Title , DisplayName );
                table+='<tr style="background-color:#E0E7F'+(rows++%2?1:10)+'"><td>'+cols.join('</td><td>')+'</td></tr>';
            }
            reportDIV.innerHTML=listTitle+'<table width=100%>'+table+'</table>';

InfoPath customize action when button is clicked

In an InfoPath 2013 form that accesses a custom list, I would like to add functionality to the form.

Basically when the item is clicked, I would like to start that part of the workflow.

Thus can you tell me if I can place a button in the 'Ribbon' that is auto generated by InfoPath and/or if I can place a button somewhere else on the form?

If so can you tell me the following when the user clicks the button and that starts the workflow?

   Can I place the button on the ribbon? (Can you let me know if this option is possible and how to accomplish this goal?)

Programmatically create site collection self service site creation

Good Day,

I'm sitting with the following issue. I'm creating a site collection programmatically... all was working fine on my dev server, until I deployed to test server. When I run the code on the test server the code fails with an unauthorized(Access Denied) exception. After some investigation it turned out that the app pool account for the SharePoint Site did not have sufficient permissions on the contentDB to create site collections. One solution I found was to make the SharePoint site web application pool account the same as central admin. Lo and behold, this resolved my problem. The site collection was being created. BUT, because this is a major security risk (having the same accounts for both web apps) I started looking for another solution. So I found this post: http://ift.tt/1BwZMAb

This is to enable self service site creation on the web application for a specific user I.E the SharePoint site app pool account. Note, at this stage I reverted the app pool account to original account so the accounts are now different again.

I followed the steps in the blog by disabling "use self service" for all users and creating permission policy. Setting the permissions for the user policy, adding a user to the security and setting the permissions to use the new Permission policy. So theoretically this should work for the app pool account.

I'm running my code with elevated privileges. Note this is after I enabled self service site creation. Code below

using (SPSite newSpCollection = rootSite.SelfServiceCreateSite("sites/" +  SiteUrl, SiteName, SiteDescription,1033,"COMMUNITY#0",userLoginName,userName,userEmail,null, null, null)){ //do stuff here}

The problem seems to be that when editing the specific permissions the option that gives users permission to edit documents also includes editing the site. So my question is simply, is there a way to split theese or can i find a way around this?

Help would be appreciated.

EDIT: PROBLEM HAS BEEN SOLOVED

Link to the uploaded document in RichTextHtmlField is not generated if custom document upload form is used

I have a RichTextHtmlField in a page. The user who is entering data need to upload the document for reference. I want to change the selected option of Destination Library in the form. To do so, I have copied entire content of Upload.aspx page and created a custom action to launch the custom upload form. When I click on the custom action button I am getting the exact ouput which I want but after the upload operation completes I am not getting the link generated in the field area, as SharePoint OOTB upload form does.

My custom action contains following code:

<CustomAction Id="Ribbon.PublishTab.Publishing.Actions.UploadDocumentButton" Location="CommandUI.Ribbon">
    <CommandUIExtension>
      <CommandUIDefinitions>
        <CommandUIDefinition Location="Ribbon.EditingTools.CPInsert.Links.Controls._children" >
          <Button Id="Ribbon.PublishTab.Publishing.UploadDocumentButton1"  Command="UploadDocumentButton1"

                  LabelText="Upload File" TemplateAlias="o1" Sequence="1000" />
        </CommandUIDefinition>
      </CommandUIDefinitions>
      <CommandUIHandlers>
        <CommandUIHandler Command="UploadDocumentButton1" CommandAction="javascript:function test(){

                          var url = _spPageContextInfo.webAbsoluteUrl + '/_layouts/15/DiscussionBoardEventReceiver/Pages/UploadFile.aspx?UseDivDialog=true&amp;LCID=1033&amp;Source=' + _spPageContextInfo.serverRequestPath +'&amp;AssetPageFolder=true&amp;seed=0.10343389471709208';                          
                          var options = {url: url};
                          SP.UI.ModalDialog.showModalDialog(options);

        </CommandUIHandler>
      </CommandUIHandlers>
    </CommandUIExtension>
  </CustomAction>

The page UploadFile.aspx the exact code which is found in Upload.aspx in \_layouts folder.

The file is uploaded successfully but the link is not getting generated. What am I missing?

Get File Url from a Lookup Column REST API

I have a lookup column that correlates to a background image in my presentation layer. Is it possible to expose the URL to the actual file via the $expand mechanism using REST?

Example REST URI

http://ift.tt/1D36Oi5

If I do a separate REST call to the actual Document Image list there are a couple properties that look useful, the most useful being ServerRelativeUrl. But I get an invalid request error trying to $expand on this property. See below.

The query to field 'Document_x0020_Image/ServerRelativeUrl' is not valid.

I'd very much appreciate any help with this issue. Thanks.

Impersonation Step that's dependent on an IF condition

I'm writing a workflow for a dispatch process in a warehouse. The item goes through several stages before it can be closed, and at each stage, the item must be edited by different groups.

I'm thinking the best way to do this is using impersonation steps, changing the permissions at each of the stages of the process to give appropriate access to the relevant group, and preventing certain people from editing the item.

My question is, is it possible to have an IF statement prior to an impersonation step? So, for example:

IF 'document status' equals 'pending'<br> --- [Admin] has full control<br> --- [Finance] has read<br> --- [Security] has contribute

Is this possible?

Why my grid doesn't have rows when I load my werbpart?

Scenario: - Webpart with MultiView control. I have some GridView controls inside some of the Views. All these views are NOT the view showed when we load the webpart for the first time. - The idea is to translate all the ASP.Net controls in the Page_Load event.

Problems: - When I call the translation function without testing the post back, the first translation is ok, but after that the texts became blank. I understand this occurs due to the fact I changed the control text, and as the control has EnableViewState = true, the next time the page is loaded it passes the already-translated text to be translated again, and as I don't have the translation for the already translated text, it becomes blank. - If I only call the translation when it' not a postback, then the controls that are not presented in the first time (remember, they are in other Views than the first one) do not translate properly.

The solution I see right now is to create a ViewState flag to control the translation for each grid, so I can guarantee it is translated just once, but it does sound strange.

Can anybody see a different way to do this?

Please do not answer with things like "use Resources", because I can't change this translation schema, it is mandatory in this case to NOT use resources. through a translation function, only when it's no

Tagging a .zip file with Document Library Columns

I have a Document Library for which a documentType column is defined. When I upload any file except for .zip files, I have the opportunity to enter values into the documentType column, thus classifying my document. This is not the case with .zip files, only the Name(filename) column is displayed. Same behavior if I choose the Edit Properties option from the document/file menu. Is there any reason why library metadata columns are disabled for .zip files? How can I tag these columns for .zip files? Thanks.

Difference between Assembly Deployment Target set to "GlobalAssemblyCache" or "WebApplication"

When I view the properties for my SharePoint 2010 project I can see an option of Assembly Deployment Target which can be set to either GlobalAssemblyCache or WebApplication.

1. 
   

   From this question I was able to figure out that setting value to GlobalAssemblyCache deploys DLL to C:\Windows\assembly. For WebApplication, it says that it will deploy to website/bin. What is the exact path where the WebApplication option deploys the solution?

   
   


2. 
   

   From this question it seems that custom fields cannot be deployed with option of WebApplication. They can only be deployed to GlobalAssemblyCache. Are there any other restrictions when deploying to WebApplication?

   
   


3. 
   

   While developing SP solutions which option should be preferred and why?

How to retrieve value of type hyperlink from managed property in display template?

I have a site column of type HyperLink / Picture where the url for the icon is stored. I want to access this in the custom display template for search items.

Whenever I try to access the site column named ServiceIcon as described above, it retrieves null value. I have checked it using another tool whether any sort of value is being assigned to this managed property or not and it shows that correct value has been assigned to it. The following is the code:

<mso:ManagedPropertyMapping msdt:dt="string">'Title':'Title','Path':'Path','Description':'Description','EditorOWSUSER':'EditorOWSUSER','LastModifiedTime':'LastModifiedTime',
 'CollapsingStatus':'CollapsingStatus','DocId':'DocId','HitHighlightedSummary':'HitHighlightedSummary','HitHighlightedProperties':'HitHighlightedProperties','FileExtension':'FileExtension',
'ViewsLifeTime':'ViewsLifeTime','ParentLink':'ParentLink','FileType':'FileType','IsContainer':'IsContainer','SecondaryFileExtension':'SecondaryFileExtension','DisplayAuthor':'DisplayAuthor','ServiceOffering':'ServiceOffering','ServiceColor':'ServiceColor','ServiceIcon':'ServiceIcon'

var pictureURL = $getItemValue(ctx, "ServiceIcon");
pictureURL.overrideValueRenderer($urlHtmlEncode);
alert("pic URL : " + pictureURL);

This alert displays null value. I have verified and the mapping with the crawled property has been done correctly. Please help.
