Selecting "Discard Checkout" appears to modify/break Page snippet

$
0
0

It appears to me that selecting "Discard Checkout" modifies/breaks a Page snippet.

Is it SharePoint, or is it my code?

My objective is to display an ordered list <UL> menu navigation across a few pages, each formatted with some CSS.

I paste my CSS (see below) into a page snippet, and then I paste my <UL> (also see below) into the page body.  This works well and the <UL> is styled until I edit the page, change my mind, and click "Discard Checkout".  The page is then saved and the <UL> does not appear as intended.

To resolve, I have to overwrite my snippet code with the exact same values, re-save, and re-publish.

SNIPPET:

<style>
#nav {
width:100%;
float:left;
margin:0 0 3em 0;
padding:0;
list-style:none;
background-color:#fff19d;
border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;
border-top:1px solid #ccc;
}

#nav li {
float:left;
}

#nav li a {
display:block;
padding:8px 15px;
text-decoration:none;
font-weight:normal;
color:#f47f69;
border-right:1px solid #ccc;
}

#nav li a:hover {
color:#f47f69;
text-decoration:underline;
background-color:#fff;
}

#wrap {
width:750px;
margin:0 auto;
background-color:#fff;
}

h5 {
font-size:1.5em;
padding:1em 8px;
color:#333;
background-color:#069;
margin:0;
}

#content {
padding:0 50px 50px;
}
</style>

BODY:

<ul id="nav">
   <li><a>Wizard Steps:</a></li>
   <li><a href="/sites/IT/ITPO/Pages/X/1.aspx">Link 1</a></li>
   <li><a href="/sites/IT/ITPO/Pages/X/2.aspx">Link 2</a></li>
   <li><a href="/sites/IT/ITPO/Pages/X/3.aspx">Link 3</a></li>

</ul>


Can't change URL of List in SharePoint Team Site (Office 365)

$
0
0

I'm working inside a Team Site in Office 365 SharePoint.

I created a List and added some tasks. Then I renamed the list.

However, I noticed the URL did not change when I renamed it.

I've seen numerous posts around the Web like this one, explaining different ways to do it.

http://www.netwoven.com/2016/02/3-ways-to-change-the-url-of-a-sharepoint-list-or-library/

Regarding the three options listed there:

1. I have no idea what PowerShell is, nor do I care to find out. I'm not a software developer. That option is no good for me.

2. I followed these instructions in SharePoint Designer 2013. Renaming the List had no effect on the URL whatsoever. So, it doesn't work as advertised per that article.

3. The "Open with Windows Explorer" button is disabled (greyed out) for me.

So I'm stuck. Anyone have a way to change a List URL?

Like so many things Microsoft... blows my mind that such a simple thing is not easy to do. I mean... given that URL's are kind of foundational to the organization of information on the Internet, and SharePoint is supposedly all about organizing information... oh never mind.

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks.

Wanted to know if there is a way we can backup a sitecollection and restore it on a different sitecollection.

Can we do this within same domain?

Can we do this across domains?

SharepointOnlineCredentials works from Debug and CommandLine but not from External App

$

I have written a C# CSOM Console App to post an engineering doc and it's metadata to SPO.

It works great from Debug mode and from the Command Line, but does not work when called from a Teamcenter (Tc) workflow.

The Tc workflow DOES run, the Console App IS called (validating inputs, renaming files, etc.), but fails on a SharepointOnlineCredentials call with the following message:
The external commend exited with the following error: External Command "...\Push2Seda.exe" returned error code -532462766.

ADFS authentication was recently implemented, and attempts to bypass it via an etc/hosts update produced no change in behavior.

My code looks like this:

        // Connect to Sharepoint, Establish client-side context
        using (SP.ClientContext ctx = new SP.ClientContext(sDestSite))
        {
            // Get Credentials
            ctx.Credentials = GetSPOCredentials("username@domain", "password");
            ctx.ExecuteQuery();
            Log(sLogFile, string.Format("Got Credentials"));
            ...

        public static SP.SharePointOnlineCredentials GetSPOCredentials(string userName, string password)
        {
            SecureString securePassword = new SecureString();
            foreach (char ch in password) securePassword.AppendChar(ch);
            return new SP.SharePointOnlineCredentials(userName, securePassword);
        }

This was working before ADFS authentication was implemented...

Any idea how to solve this problem?

Thx,

Internet facing site in SP Online

Hi,

I wanted to create an internet facing site in SP Online (E3 subscription).

I would like to know how to maintain external users (Other than Office 365 users), can I have those users maintained in any database (may be Azure SQL), or might be Azure AD is the right option for this ?

Do SP Online costs separately for external users ? if so, how much per user ?

Please help me to understand this.

Thanks,

New Office365 / SharePoint Dashboard

Hi

In Office365, when users clicked on the SharePoint tile until recently it took them straight to the promoted site links but now they have the new look dashboard showing Frequent and Suggested sites. The suggested sites are showing all sites including the ones they don't have access to, is there a way to remove these so they can only see the ones they have permissions for as I don't really want them to see them all?

Thanks

Sharepoint online - Office 2010 upload failed

$

I have been battling with this issue for weeks now, with help from Microsoft support and our SharePoint vendor as well.  It isn't every file when this happens, but there is no indication as to why it happens in the first place.  This is the setup.

SharePoint Online

Locally we use Office 2010

We have SharePoint online mapped to a drive for Windows Explorer view although it doesn't matter, upload failed happens on the website as well.  The only two workarounds I have found without figuring out why this even happens is copying the file locally, then just copying it back to SharePoint Online and overwriting the same file.  Also if we are in the website and use "excel/word online" it will work.  Similarly Office 2013 has no issues.

This is the following things I have tried already with zero success.

Upload failed troubleshooting
Lowered all security settings in IE
Added Sharepoint sites to IE Trust sites
Repaired Office
Cleared Office Cache
Cleared Upload Cache
Removed all logins from Windows Vault
Removed Identity profiles from Regedit HKEY Office
Reinstalled Office 2010
Update Office (through windows update) and desktop software on the website.
Removed updates one by one checking to see if one was causing it.
Used Network Monitor to see any abnormalities when upload failed occurs.
Checked Event monitor in windows

IE 11 and SharePoint-excel/access documents not working correctly

hello i have win10 with IE11 and am having issues with interactions with documents on SharePoint. after accessing the SharePoint directory and finding the desired folders, i click on the one i want and it pops up with "a problem with this webpage caused internet explorer to close and re-open tab. (re-open SharePoint.com doesn't even work at this stage). Now another (but i am guessing related) issue is i have correlated an access database to the sharepoint site. i have the lists able to be opened from the left side launch bar also, upon clicking on those i get the same error. this is only in IE11, it works with edge, chrome, and firefox. i do prefer ie11 for this instance for the ease of syncing (will not work on anything but IE11 for me). Any help is very welcome, thanks.

Hi 

I been doing some research after the release of the new Modern Library in SharePoint Online and I notice that some of the features are no longer part of the new Modern Libraries.

One of them is the Popularity Trends that my users use a lot, is this feature is no longer support in the new Modern Libraries or is there a way to still use it?

Thanks

Access Denied - site/_api/SP.RelatedItemManager.addSingleLink?SourceListName - Workflow Internal Status - Sharepoint Online

$

Hi,

I have an workflow in SharePoint online with few stages. It works fine sometimes and sometimes it wont.. Throwing the following error..

HTTP Unauthorized to site*/_api/SP.RelatedItemManager.addSingleLink?SourceListName***

Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource.

The user was having access via the everyone group. Once the workflow was successfully completed. Next time, the above was thrown. When the error was thrown, i added the user exclusively with the same access level. Then i clicked on "Retry now". Then it was moved on to the next stage. The access denied error itself is not consistent and am unable to reproduce. sometimes the workflow fine and sometimes it's not.. even for the same user with same access level..

I don't know the reason why it happens. and i cannot move this to production now unless it's fixed.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks,

Prani



Problems with the Title field in Sharepoint Online

$

Hi there, 

I have a Sharepoint list which we use for keeping track of our service calls. The system works fine and we are very happy with it. We now need to have the system working on our engineers phones.

I downloaded a number of Sharepoint Apps on my iPhone to test them out. They all connect to Sharepoint fine, but through trial and error it seems that all of these Sharepoint Apps list the records (in my list) by Title field. The problem is that Ideleted the Title field for my service calls list, as it was not needed. However, this means that nearly all of the Sharepoint Apps now list my records with the Title of [No Title]. 

I have tried re-creating a Title column in the list but this does not work. I found that if I create a NEW list with a Title field, the Apps will list it with the text I populate this field with. And even if I rename this Title field to Name, this works okay as well. So it seems that they are based around the GUID of the Title field. Is there any way that I can create a new field with this same GUID as the original Title field?

thanks,

Search results web part error, missing tabs.

Hello,

I have a custom master page built from an html on Sharepoint Online.

I want to add a Search Results webpart on my page, but when I do it, I see that this webparts has missing options. I only have the first two, and are not even complete, I cannot swith between basic and advance query and I don't have the refinement, sorting, test tabs..



Opening the developer tools for the popup, I see the following error.

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'add_resultRendered' of undefined on Search.configuration.js on line number 1.

The point is, that if I quit my masterpage and I put the seattle, the webparts works perfect. So I know that there is something missing on my masterpage, but I don't have a idea about what can be.



Any thoughts?



Many thanks,
