Dear Team,

Import values as 'person or group' type

$

Hello all,

I have an excel sheet with URLs and users (Name, email and alias/id stored in different columns). I would like to transfer this excel sheet into a task list. The tasks should be named by the url and they should be assigned to the people from the list.

If I just import that excel sheet, I get a custom list not a task list. The column "Name" is of type text and I can't convert it to person or group.

I wonder if it is possible to import Users from an excel sheet to a task list? Which format do I need? Maybe there is a workaround? Something like read the names as text, create a user and insert it into the assigned to column.

I am thankful for any ideas

Feature ID Explanation

Hello,

I am facing wrong Feature installation for a Timer Job - ScopeInvalid. I try to understand the the GUID logic.

I had generated GUID online and put it into my code:

[Guid("8148e9de-2392-4841-8750-b0f7d8d90ce2")]
    public class ContactExport_TimerJob : SPFeatureReceiver

I checked the installation by Feature Admin which shows:

WebApplication: 'ContactExport' [15/97e7189b-4ab3-43ac-bb16-c2974a560bb0]

Finally I checked the table Feature and the column FeatureID which contained none of the mentioned Ids.

How should I understand the logic of IDs?

Thanks a lot,

Picture Library jslink BUG

$

Hello,

I have a picture library with a few pictures. Now I add this library as a web part to a totally blank page. It displays the default thumbnail view perfectly. I haven't changed anything yet. Now all I do is add a jslink to a js file that is on the server. The thumbnail view of the picture library changes to an 'all pictures' view and NOTHING I do can bring it back. The jslink file has no errors. Even if I comment everything in the file it doesn't show me the thumbnails. As soon as I remove the jslink, the thumbnail view returns.

PLEASE HELP. I need to customize the look and feel of a picture gallery for a client and this isn't working.

Thanks in advance.

Working with Document Sets and Workflows

$
0
0

Hi Guys

Done some research on this but haven't really been able to get a definitive answer.

My scenario is;

I have a document set associated with a document library, I would like to assign workflows to various users dependent on the particular instance of the document set, in this instance a student's annual review and also dependent on which document type.

I have a list where I state for student 1 they tutor is Mr Teacher, their key worker is Mr K Worker etc and I can assign the whole document set using a workflow.

It's the next step where I need to assign specific default documents within the document set dependent on which document it is, so the teacher has to fill in one document and they keywork another.

On top of this I would like to report on this progress which I gather would be an indicator column.

Appreciate any help or references on any of the above, thanks!

Visual Studio 2013 "A task was canceled" errors during deployment

$

I'm suddenly getting errors when trying to deploy SharePoint solutions via VS 2013. I think this is probably a bug in the latest release of the Office Developer Tools for VS, as this installation of VS used to work fine until recent upgrades.

When deploying a solution, it always gives "A task was canceled" errors for whichever step in the Deployment Configuration comes first (I've tried reordering them).

Two questions:

- Is MS aware of this issue? Is there any workaround or fix?

- Is there a way for me to uninstall the Office Developer Tools May 2014 update so I can reinstall an older version? I'm not sure if this came with a VS 2013 Update, but there seems to be no entry in the Add/Remove programs to remove this version of the Office Developer Tools as there was with older versions.

Hello,

I have a root site (e.g: http://portal.contoso.dev) where I have deployed a Sandboxed solution. Also, have activated few Site Collection features on it. (which creates - Site Columns, Content Types, List Definition)

I have created a variation site using source label  (e.g: http://portal.contoso.dev/en-us) and have activated Site Level features on it (which creates List Instance on site).

Now, I created a target label (fi-fi) and clicked "Create Hierarchies", which fails. Below is the ULS log ('e15e4a08-a95a-496c-848a-4e1a5a328ea8' is feature id of my List Instance):

If this is possible can it be automated to run on a schedule?

Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

Column header filtering not functioning for external lists

$

I have a problem with column header filtering on external lists, specific for columns of Number and Date types.

When the site's regional settings are in English (United States) filtering works fine, but if I choose any other regional setting with different number formatting (ie Dutch) then filtering on these columns gives no results.

When clicking on the column header filter dropdown, the numbers to filter on are displayed with thousands seperators where the numbers in the views are not formatted as seen in attached screenshot.

Filtering on custom sharepoint list with these regional settings is working fine, it is just on external lists, on number and date fields and regional setting is not English.

I have tried all different kind of regional settings on the client and the server, but no results.

Anybody has a clue?

Clicking on the column header shows all available filter values (with thousand seperator). Selecting one value gives no results:

No results after selecting a filter value

Making a single hyperlink link to different places, depending on logged in user [SharePoint Online - SP Site]

$
0
0

Hi!

I couldn't find a forum structure directly regarding SharePoint Online, so I put it here, assuming that my issue will need some degree of manual coding/other labor.

I asked on the other more general forum, how I would be able to make a single hyperlink link to different places, and I came up with the idea myself, that I could perhaps use audiences in SharePoint Online for this purpose, however my company's O365 SBP doesn't allow that feature, and we'd have to upgrade to O365 Midsize Business to unlock the feature. We don't wish to do so, since every other boundary in our current O365 subscribtion fits us perfectly.

My question is thus how I can, without the ability to use audiences for it, manage to achieve my goal of making a couple of links on the site's home page link to different places on the internet, depending on which specific user is viewing the site?

Details: The hyperlinks I speak of are presented in the "Promoted Links" Application which is offered as a standard App to add to one's site.
The purpose of the alternate link end-locations is for users of our SharePoint site (Who are all employees in the company) to be able to instantly log in to our alternate programs, which we use for Customer Relationship Management and another for managing economics. We already know how we can create the hyperlinks to log in directly to these services, however, as describred, we need each user to be taken to a different URL, which logs them in with the correct credentials, so that not everyone is, for instance, logged into the company owner's accounts for these services.

I very much hope that you guys can help me out somehow, and if not, then thanks for trying and/or any input you may be able to provide :)

Editing global metadata navigation flyout text

I want to have every page across my SP sites make use of the ItemWrap on the metadata navigation flyouts as some sites have fairly long names and they wrap across 3 lines on the flyout.

How can I do this?  Do I need to edit the Seattle.html file in SPD 2013?  I can see 2 ASPMenu sections based on this article http://sampathnarsingam.blogspot.co.uk/2012/05/sharepoint-global-navigation.html#!/2012/05/sharepoint-global-navigation.html But I don't really know if I should edit both sections and uncomment one or not?

If anyone has any simple step by step guides please send over

SideNavBox Styling

I have styled the SideNavBox in Sharepoint 2013 which is easy enough, what's causing me a problem is that I want to apply a slightly different style to those menu items that have another tier of items below them.  I have built a vertical menu system and for those items that have another menu tier below them I want to put a little arrow so the user knows that these menus open up. Here is what I have so far:

Here is the menu when you open one

I'd like to add an arrow so people know these menus open up and yet in SharePoint the sideNavBox has now specific class applied to those items that have another tier under them. How best can I achieve this?
