Newsfeed and Availability of Managed Metadata and Content Types

$
0
0

All,

In a newsfeed - is it possible if I utilize a # hash tag that the managed metadata navigation will be pulled from? Also - I'd be interested if content types can be pulled from in a newsfeed as well.

I have a department that has some managed metadata in the term store and wants to be able to utilize this metadata as hash tags. Also they are using some custom content types as well and would like to be able to use hash tags to tap into this data as well in a newsfeed so when they do a post and use a hash tag it will pull when applicable from these content types.  

The newsfeed is located within their site in the same site collection as the metadata term store and content types.


OneDrive for Business notifications

Hi guys,

does anyone know of a way to disable the process of granting managers administrative access to a deleted subordinate's OneDrive account? At the very least, can the email notifications be turned off? Example below:

User X's OneDrive for Business will be deleted in 14 days. As their manager, you're the temporary owner of all documents saved to their OneDrive for Business. That means you still have time to copy important documents to another location, if you choose. Otherwise, the documents will be permanently deleted. Go to Bill Rankin's OneDrive for Business at https://domain-my.sharepoint.com/personal/user_domain_com/_layouts/viewlsts.aspx

Restore a Site Collection without Content

Hi All,

I have a Site Collection(sc) ABC in Production as well as in test Environment. While the SC in PROD kept changing with time, the test SC is not up to date. 

Now the requirement is to bring test sc be similar to what we have in prod. 

QUESTION: Is there a way to restore backup without the data? If not, is there any other way by which I can copy the Schema (to say) only and not the data?

Upgrading My Sites from Windows Claims to use SAML Claims

$

We've upgraded our SharePoint 2010 environment to 2013. We've also configured our sites to use ADFS 3.0.

All applications were successfully converted using Convert-SPWebApplication. There are no issues with authenticating or authorisation.

We have upgraded our UPS from 2010 to 2013 successfully. My Sites work fine when using Windows Auth. A new account was created by the trusted identity provider when we synchronised it with the UPS.

We want to map our existing My Sites, which were created using windows claims, to the new trusted identity provider (SAML claims) account. A new My Site is created and is assigned a new personal site URL when using the trusted identity provider account.

We obviously want our staff to be able to use their current My Sites with all their current content.

How do we achieve this?

Regards

User Profile Sync Service Stuck Starting

I am having an issue where the user profile sync service is stuck starting. I have Read harbars guide to fixing this, located here:http://www.harbar.net/articles/sp2010ups2.aspx#ups14

My question is if I recreate the User Profile Service Application do I need to delete the first one first? The reason I ask is because I'm afraid of losing the SharePoint Mysites data. All the permissions are set correctly according to harbar's article and it still isn't working, so I tried recreating the User Profile Service application - to no avail.

Also I read here that http://mmman.itgroove.net/2013/09/16/debugging-steps-in-sharepoint-2013-ups-creation/ this may help, specifically step 8. It says clear the configuration cache, is this likely to resolve the issue of the user profile sync service not starting.

Cloned VM SharePoint 2013 Farm - Test to Production - User SID Permission Issues

$
0
0

We have an SP2013 Farm (3 servers) in our Test environment. We cloned the VMs and moved them to Production. I added the SP users to the Production AD (same names as they were in Test). The machines come up fine, however I am getting issues with connectivity to the SQL DB "Insufficient SQL database permissions for user ...\SP_Farm SID:..." I have checked the SQL DB and the user is there with all the same permissions they had in the Test environment. My guess is that because the Production\SP_Farm has a different SID from the Test\SP_Farm it errors. I would also assume that the remaining 12 users that I added on Production will have similar issues.

Is there an easy way to tell SharePoint "Hey... use the new SP_Farm"? It was a fresh install on the Test network (only the initial Portal and MySite created) - so if there is no easyish fix I can do a clean install on Production, but I would rather not.

Any information would be GREATLY appreciated! Thx!

Multi tenanted SharePoint 2013 Foundation search not returning results.

$

Hi All,

I am building a multi tenanted SharePoint 2013 Foundation environment using claims based authentication via ADFS 3.0.

We currently have three servers in the SharePoint farm 1 web front end, 1 App server and 1 SQL server. These will scale to 3 of each except the SQL server.

We have two tenant sites created and our testing has gone well with the exception of Search returning no results for either tenant even though we have managed to index the content.

 All tenant are provisioned to our ‘Hosting Root – SSL’ Web application using hostname based site collections ie: Tenant1.domain.com with the web application https://spprdapp01/

This was originally configured to use Claims authentication and windows authentication in the same zone and we could index the content when using a proxy server for the search service but no results were returned when searching within a site.

In our troubleshooting of the search issue the web app has since had windows auth disabled and has been extended to a new ‘Intranet Zone’ with windows auth enabled. The search content source has been configured to crawl this new site. ‘http://spprdapp01:27543’

We are receiving the following error:

Access is denied. Verify that either the Default Content Access Account has access to this repository, or add a crawl rule to crawl this repository. If the repository being crawled is a SharePoint repository, verify that the account you are using has"Full Read" permissions on the SharePoint Web Application being crawled.

Browsing in IE to http://spprdapp01:27543 as our default content access account seems to work and as I understand it the crawl will access all sites under this web app.

I have searched the forums and tried various solutions such as adding the 'DisableLoopbackCheck' reg key and I have also tried the 'BackConnectionHostNames' reg key option with no luck.

I feel there must be something I have missed in the configuration, I would appreciate any thoughts on what to try next.

Thanks!

Alerts Not Working when "New items are added" is selected

$
0
0

We are using SharePoint 2013 on-premise standard edition. I noticed there was same question at 2009. I am not sure whether it is an old bug or feature.

We have a list with "require content approval" enabled. By setup "Alert me" on that list for  "New items are added", a confirmation email will be immediately sent. The mail will confirm user have setup "alert me" on that list. However, whatever new item added to the list, regardless the item is approved/pending/rejected, no email is sent.

After we change "New items are added" to "All changes", the "alert me" work as expected.

Is it desired behaviour?

Cannot add folder to Sharepoint Foundation 2013 page

Hi

We are using SharePoint Foundation 2013. Recently, when choosing the option to Edit a page (Gear icon > Edit Page), I noticed that the Files tab is no longer displayed. This is affecting everyone who uses the site.

I have checked that:

Domain Users have Design, Edit, Contribute, Read permissions for the site as a whole
Site Settings > Sharepoint Designer Settings: 'Enable Sharepoint Designer' and 'Enable Customizing Master Pages and Page Layouts' are enabled
Site Settings > Site Libraries and Lists > 'Customise webpage' > Advanced Settings > 'Make "New Folder" command available? = Yes

The Files tab which contains the Folder command does not appear when I or anyone else choose to edit a page.

Can anyone help me fix this, please?

Thanks.

Sharepoint MySite - Force site to be created in order to create Personal Blog

$

0

in SharePoint 2013 - I have used a script to get the MySite created for the users - but that doesn't create the Personal Blog. I'm trying to get the "Blog" created for each user so I can run a script to rename their personal blog name with their name instead of it being set as Blog.

I have been able to change the Personal Site Capabilities to 15 - but Blog doesn't appear until the user themselves actually open up their MySite.

I'm trying to get all the settings created before people really start to use these features - and so that when we start following the Blogs of individuals that they aren't all displayed in Newsfeed as "Blog".

Is there a way to get the blog to appear without the actual user having to open up their MySite?

Thanks for any assistance.

Google Chrome (without NPAPI Plug-in) support for SharePoint 2013

Hi All,

It is found that Chrome without NPAPI Plug-in will not be fully supporting SharePoint. And by end of Sept, these plugins will be history.

There are words in and around various forums that SharePoint AUG CU 2015 is gonna fix this. However I have not seen anyone confirming this. People are still looking for solution.

I would like to know weather AUG CU did actually solve this or there is no solution available till date?

Virtual directories in Office 365 online Sharepoint

$

Hi

Can anyone advise on how to configure virtual directories or advise on a way to shorten url paths in SharePoint 365?

My mode of thinking is how you would use virtual directories in iis to link directly to a group of pages or a page to keep the length of the url down.

I don't know this system at all so any advise would be greatly received.

Many thanks in advance.
