<!--SPM:<SharePoint:SPClientIDGenerator runat="server" ServerControlID="DeltaPlaceHolderMain;DeltaPlaceHolderPageTitleInTitleArea;DeltaPlaceHolderUtilityContent;DeltaPlaceHolderLeftNavBar"/>-->


STEP 2) Add a Div hidden snippet just above the footer or at bottom of master page before the </body> end tag, with the following controls (cross check whether the following controls are not already present on the Master page - HINT: Find by the id name - if they exist dont re-add them)
   
<div style="display:none;">
 <!-- remove start and end tags below for DeltaPlaceHolderLeftNavBar and PlaceHolderLeftNavBar if already exists in master page -->
 <!--SPM:<SharePoint:AjaxDelta id="DeltaPlaceHolderLeftNavBar" BlockElement="true" CssClass="ms-core-navigation" role="navigation" runat="server">-->

 <!--SPM:<asp:ContentPlaceHolder id="PlaceHolderPageTitleInTitleArea" runat="server">-->
 <!--SPM:</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>-->
 <!--SPM:</SharePoint:AjaxDelta>-->

How to get the current List GUID within your SharePoint Designer Workflow

You can get the Current List GUID by following the 4 simple steps below within your SharePoint Designer Workflow:

1) Use the "Extract substring from End of String" Action to copy 108 characters from the end of the Workflow Context: Workflow Status URL (Output to Variable:WorkflowStatusURLWithListGUID)


2) Use the "Extract substring from Start of String" Action to copy 44 characters from start of the WorkflowStatusURLWithListGUID (Output to Variable:ListGUID)

3) You can now use the Workflow Variable ListGUID within your custom actions or to construct dynamic strings where Current List GUID is required

For e.g. A Common use of the List GUID is when using workflows associated with SharePoint Calendar list and there is a requirement to export the SharePoint Event to *.ics file (so that the SharePoint Event can be added by user to his/her personal Outlook Calendar). To do this add a hyperlink to a URL similar to this within email Action:

<insert workflow context: current site url>/_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?CS=109&Cmd=Display&List=<insert List GUID here>&CacheControl=1&ID=<insert current item id here>&Using=event.ics

Convert Word documents to PDF in bulk using SharePoint 2013 Word Automation Services - PowerShell Script

Find below the PowerShell script to save PDF version of Word documents in a SharePoint 2013 document library. Take note of the input parameters and corresponding value in the script below, so that you can set your own value for this script to run properly


# Uncomment the line below if running this script within Windows PowerShell ISE
#Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell

# Input parameters for the script
# Input the SharePoint list Name - replace Shared Documents with your Document Library Name
$listUrl="Shared Documents"

# Get the Word Automation Service Proxy
$wasp = Get-SPServiceApplicationProxy | where { $_.TypeName -eq "Word Automation Services Proxy" }

#Create the Conversion job
$conversionJob = New-Object Microsoft.Office.Word.Server.Conversions.ConversionJob($wasp)

# Get the web url
# Input the SharePoint URL - replace sharepoint.test.com with your sharepoint site url
$web = Get-SPWeb "http://sharepoint.test.com/"

# Set the credentials to use when running the conversion job.
$conversionJob.UserToken = $web.CurrentUser.UserToken

# Conversion Job Name
$conversionJob.Name = "ConvertDOCXtoPDF1"
$conversionJob.Settings.OutputFormat = [Microsoft.Office.Word.Server.Conversions.SaveFormat]::PDF
$conversionJob.Settings.UpdateFields = $true
$conversionJob.Settings.OutputSaveBehavior = [Microsoft.Office.Word.Server.Conversions.SaveBehavior]::AlwaysOverwrite

#Get list
$list = $web.Lists[$listUrl]

# Replace the variable "SubFolderName" with your own folder name or remove SubFolders[..] if querying all files in root folder
foreach ($itm in $list.RootFolder.SubFolders["SubFolderName"].Files){
    # Replace .docx with .doc or other Word file extensions depending on the Word formats you are trying to convert
    if($itm.Name.ToLower().EndsWith(".docx") -eq $true) {
        Write-Host $($itm.ServerRelativeUrl)
        # Note the job below will convert all Word files to PDF and save it into the same location as where source Word document are. Modify code below to save to alternate location
        $conversionJob.AddFile($($web.Site.MakeFullUrl($itm.ServerRelativeUrl)), $($web.Site.MakeFullUrl($itm.ServerRelativeUrl).ToLower().Replace(".docx", ".pdf")))
               
    }
}
# Start the conversion job
$conversionJob.Start()

Create a shortcut link to the "New Document" ribbon menu item to create a new document from a document template

The ribbon in SharePoint 2013 is useful but not user friendly if one is looking to create a document based on a pre-defined document template that is associated with a content type. Find below the code snippet that can be used to add a custom JQuery button or override existing script on button(s) to easily open a document based on a pre-defined Word template that is associated with the document library or content type:

Primary function

// Ensure that you replace the siteURL, docTemplateURL and docLibraryURL with your own values
// e.g. siteURL = http://intranet/
// e.g. docTemplateURL = http://intranet/doc%20ibrary/forms/template.docx
// e.g. docLibraryURL = http://intranet/doc%20ibrary
function createNewDocumentInstance(siteURL, docTemplateURL, docLibraryURL){

  var createDocumentURL = siteURL + "/_layouts/CreateNewDocument.aspx?id=" + docTemplateURL;

  // Invoke the internal SharePoint function to create a new document based on the document template
  createNewDocumentWithRedirect2(event, docTemplateURL, docLibraryURL, 'SharePoint.OpenDocuments', false, createDocumentURL, true, 0);

}

Possible Use (EXAMPLE Only)

function replaceAnchorTagOnClickEventAndHref(aTag, siteURL, docTemplateURL, docLibraryURL)
{
  aTag.click(function() {
   // Handle home page hyperlink update to open new document instance based on content type
    createNewDocumentInstance(siteURL, docTemplateURL, docLibraryURL);
    return false;
  }); // End onclick event for aTag to open document in New Window
 
  aTag.attr("href", "#");
}
$(document).ready(function() {

  // Find the anchor tag that needs to be set with the onclick event
  // e.g. if the anchor text is set to 'My New Document Hyperlink'
  var aTag = $(".link-item a:contains('My New Document Hyperlink')");

  if (aTag.length > 0) {
    replaceAnchorTagOnClickEventAndHref(aTag,
               "http://intranet/",
             "http://intranet/MyDocLibrary/Forms/TestContentType/TestContentTypeTemplate.docx",
            "http://intranet/MyDocLibrary/");
}

How to implement your custom breadcrumb navigation in SharePoint 2013

You can easily add breadcrumb navigation to your SharePoint 2013 pages by including the following tag (and setting the associated properties) called "SharePoint:ListSiteMapPath" in your master page. Please note that "SharePoint:ListSiteMapPath" has property “SiteMapProviders” which means we can specify more than one  provider object with one ListSiteMapPath control

 

Add following code snippet to your Master Page content place holder (you can chose any one depending on where you want to position the breadcrumb navigation on the page), for e.g. you can add to "PlaceHolderPageTitleInTitleArea"

 

<SharePoint:ListSiteMapPath

                runat="server"

                SiteMapProviders="SPSiteMapProvider,SPContentMapProvider"

                RenderCurrentNodeAsLink="false"

                CssClass="my-breadcrumb"

                NodeStyle-CssClass="my-breadcrumbLink"

                CurrentNodeStyle-CssClass="my-breadcrumbLinkCurrent"

                RootNodeStyle-CssClass="my-breadcrumbLinkRoot"   

                HideInteriorRootNodes="true"

                SkipLinkText=""

                PathSeparator="" />

 

Please note that you have to define your own stylesheets to implement the class "my-breadcrumb", "my-breadcrumbLink", "my-breadcrumbLinkCurrent" and "my-breadcrumbLinkRoot"

How to resolve "Access is denied to the Secure Store Service." error in SharePoint 2013

You configure BCS and Secure Store Service correctly and then when trying to access the External list items, you may encounter a very strange error that reads something like this:

 

Unable to render the data. If the problem persists, contact your web server administrator.

Correlation ID:<some guid>

When you check your SharePoint error logs, you may notice some errors like this:

Secure Store Service ValidateCredentialClaims - Access Denied: Claims stored in the credentials did not match with the group claim for a group app. 

Secure Store Service           Secure Store                   GetRestrictedCredentials failed with the following exception: System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[Microsoft.Office.SecureStoreService.Server.SecureStoreServiceFault]: Access is denied to the Secure Store Service. (Fault Detail is equal to Microsoft.Office.SecureStoreService.Server.SecureStoreServiceFault). <some guid>

The best way to resolve this issue is to check the configured Target Application ID, especially "Members - The users and groups that are mapped to the credentials defined for this Target Application." and ensure proper user or group is entered (by clicking the "Edit" option on the Target Application in under Secure Store Service Application Administration screen -  Central Admin > Application Management > Manage Service Applications > Secure Store Service and Edit the Target Application ID > Click on Next till you get to the third page and set the field "Members" with the proper users/groups who will access this External list from SharePoint - in my example I set to "All Users")

How to Remove Page Title next to the logo in SharePoint 2013

How to solve Office 365 SharePoint Online error "Sorry you're not set up to follow" when you try to Follow a Document or Site. Unfortunately, it looks like your account hasnt't been set up to follow documents or sites."



 

In Office 365, you may have encountered this strange error where it throws an error "Sorry you're not set up to follow" when you try to Follow a Document or Site. There might be more information about the above error message such as "Unfortunately, it looks like your account hasnt't been set up to follow documents or sites."

 

 

 

The way to solve this issue is to login as Office 365 Global Administrator account to SharePoint Online Administration and navigate to the following - User Profiles -> People -> Manage User Permissions and enable the following checkboxes for the group "Everyone except external users"

 

Wait for 5-10 mins and VOILA! your users will now be able to follow sites and documents.

 

 

Strange Error in IE Developer window "Unable to get property 'showWaitScreenWithNoClose'" when changing Page Layout in SharePoint 2013 / SharePoint Online

I encountered a very strange error on Office 365 SharePoint Online where the ability to change the Page Layout suddenly stopped working (Page Layout button was still enabled though but none of the Page Layouts were clickable).

Basically when I debugged the error using IE Developer toolbar, I saw that the error was being thrown within sp.ui.runtime.js file each time I was trying to change the Page Layout - namely "Unable to get property 'showWaitScreenWithNoClose'" and also the SP.UI.ModalDialog box was null.

Eventually I traced the error back to the order of key js files that should be included/loaded on the default master page for the site. In my case the culprit were two script references:

<script src="../../_layouts/15/SP.Runtime.js" type="text/javascript">//<![CDATA[

//]]>

</script>

<script src="../../_layouts/15/SP.js" type="text/javascript">//<![CDATA[

//]]>

</script>

I changed the above lines in the default master page to:

<!--SPM:<Sharepoint:ScriptLink runat="server" Name="SP.js" Localizable="false"  ID="s1" LoadAfterUI="true"/>-->

<!--SPM:<Sharepoint:ScriptLink runat="server" Name="SP.Runtime.js" Localizable="false"  ID="s2" LoadAfterUI="true"/>-->

 

The key thing to note is the "LoadAfterUI" attribute that seemed to do the trick,

 

Now my page layouts are selectable and I can click and change the Page Layout to one the available layout pages in my site collection (Note - ensure that the page is in Edit mode for you to change the Layout Page)

 

/_layouts/15/osssearchresults.aspx not returning any search results when Searching "This Site"

I have commonly observed this issue being researched on a few times where a user selects "This Site" from Search scope/nvaigation dropdown and tries to search for a specific content in the current site, the "No results found" message is displayed. The proble is not with crawling or Search configuration but is with "Alternate Access Mappings" (AAM).

To fix the above issue and see results when searching "This Site" ensure that you have set the URL  for default zone same as URL that you are using to access the site using your browser. For example if you are using https://intranet.mycompany.com as URL to access your Intranet using a browser then ensure that the above URL is set in Alternate access mapping as your Default Zone (refer to <your SharePoint central admin URL>/_admin/EditOutboundUrls.aspx)

How to Lookup error in SharePoint 2010 by Correlation ID

If you have seen an Unknown Error message popup window in SharePoint 2010 and it looks something like below, you may wonder how can I easily find out what the error is using the big clumsy GUID.

Now use the following powershell command:
get-splogevent | ?{$_.Correlation -eq "<enter the error GUID here>"} | select Area, Category, Level, EventID, Message | Format-List

How to resolve error when upgrading SharePoint Standard 2010 to Enterprise - "An error occurred while enabling Enterprise features. Refer to the event logs on your server machines for more details. For more information on how to fix this error"

How to Left align some text and Right align some other text ON THE SAME LINE

Here is a neat trick I learned recently on how to Left align some sample text (say "Hello Ragav")  and Right align some different text (say "www.klstinc.com") on the same line, so that the final look is something like below


Hello Ragav                                                                                                                 www.klstinc.com


Step 1: For the left align text use a <p>, <div> tag with style attribute value set "float:left". For example - <div style="float:left">Hello Ragav</div>

Step 2: For the right align text use a <p>, <div> tag with style attribute value set "float:right". For example - <div style="float:right">www.klstinc.com</div>

Step 3: Clear your float by adding the line below <div style="clear: both;"></div>

In Summary, to implement the above left and right aligned text in same line the final HTML block should look something like below:

<div style="float:left">Hello Ragav</div>

<div style="float:right">www.klstinc.com</div>

<div style="clear: both;"></div>
