SharePoint is tough
SharePoint Posts- Missing Create or Extend Web Application in Central AdministrationRecently I wanted to create a new web application in SharePoint and so I went to the Central Admin website to create one, but the option was missing. Even though I was logged in as the System Account, the farm administration account I couldn't see the link. If I navigated directly to /_admin/extendvs.aspx I got an access denied message and none of the a […]

- Lockdown WSS system pages on public SharePoint sitesUsing WSS on public sites means giving anonymous access to virtually all the pages in your site, including all the different list views and document libraries. People won't be able to do anything they are not allowed to because of security trimming, but they will be able to get to see the standard SharePoint UI. There maybe also implementation details y […]
- SharePoint Live Authentication and Custom Discussion ForumsI have released a new version of ARF, which includes implementations of a Windows Live Authentication provider for SharePoint and an XML/XSLT implementation of SharePoint discussion forums.

- Remove 'init.js' and 'control.css' from your public SharePoint siteMost of the SharePoint websites I work on do not expose any of the standard SharePoint functionality.

SharePoint includes files to support the client side functionality of its controls, init.js, core.js, controls.css and core.css. These files are pretty large and i […]

- Creating a feedback or contact form for a SharePoint websiteOne of the normal requirements for a public website is some kind of feedback or contact form. Whilst this is not the most difficult thing to do, it's handy when you can create a fully accessible feedback form, with validation and the ability to update a list without having to write any code. ARF provides you with a free solution to this problem, without […]
- A tip when looking at the SharePoint content DBThe Problem Sometimes its just easier to fire up SQL Management Studio and have a quick look at the database to find out what's going on. Today I had that situation, I wanted to dele a content type and SharePoint kept telling me it was in use, but gave no clue as to where. I deleted everything I could, even from the 'recycle bin', but could no […]
- Adding an 'Up Folder' button to a SharePoint List View WebpartA little while ago I was asked if it was possible to add an 'Up Folder' button so that users could navigate back to the parent folder in a ListView webpart. I knew you could easily add a button to the ListView toolbar and adding the functionality to go to to the parent folder couldn't be that difficult so I said yes. However, it wasn't as […]

This inspired me to see how easy it would be to use Silverlight with the ARF framework. Silverlight & XAML Silverlight uses Xaml to produce the UI and XAML is just XML markup. Using XAML you can create a variety […]
