Quite some time ago, I wrote about how to set default column values using C#.  However, I find it useful to work with them using PowerShell quite often.  The reason being, I often use this as a utility to work set default column values on document...
For SharePoint 2010, I wrote a post that covered some typical service accounts that you might need along with suggested names.  I wanted to update the list for SharePoint 2013 as I get asked these questions a lot by people new to installing things...
I’ve suffered through my share of SharePoint upgrade / migration projects now and I have really changed the way I look at them.  Often when you get exposed to a new system, the lack of governance has led to a total mess with site sprawl as far as...
If you’re like me, you like complete code samples.  I don’t like having to infer the code I am supposed to right when I see a reference in the API.  I don’t program much any more, so I admit I am lazy and want to see a complete example that...
One less publicized change in the April 2013 CU for SharePoint 2013 is the ability to change the maximum number of characters indexed of a given file.  By default, SharePoint indexes 512 KB of the body of a document.  Anything after that isn...
Result Sources in SharePoint 2013 are quite powerful.  However to make use of them in your queries, you have to know the Id which you pass to the SourceId parameter of a query.  For out-of-the-box result sources, the Ids are static.  When...
I’ve had yet another fun week up here in Canada.  I gave a brand new talk about the new ways to query search in SharePoint 2013.  I had a room full of developers that asked a lot of great questions.  As promised, my slide deck is below...
I wanted to create an autocomplete textbox in a SharePoint app recently by using terms from the term store.  Since retrieving items from the term store can be a bit involved I wanted to show you the steps involved.  This solution make use of...
I recently ran into the following error when working with a SharePoint 2013 Client Web Part (App Part) while accessing the term store using SP.Taxonomy.js .  JavaScript runtime error: 'NotifyScriptLoadedAndExecuteWaitingJobs' is undefined...
As a developer, if you have ever looked for information on how to query search in SharePoint, there is a good chance that you have ran into one of my articles.  I’ve been writing about how to query search in a variety of different ways since 2007...
I’ve got a number of talks coming up that I am excited about.  It turns out that talking about my experiences publishing SharePoint 2013 apps to the Office Store is hot!  I’ve already spoken about it in Austin and now I’ll be speaking about...
This is the third time (and hopefully final) I am writing this post about building Client Web Parts (App Parts) for SharePoint 2013 with Visual Studio 2012.  This is largely due to the Office Developer Tools going through a few iterations ( Preview...
I have a session coming up at SharePoint Summit Toronto this year about the many different ways you can query search.  Whenever I am working on a new talk, it is customary for me to write blog posts about my examples so here it is. :)  I first...
The Office Developer Tools team snuck a new feature into the RTM version of the tools for Visual Studio 2012.  This new feature allows you to deploy apps and actually alter the search schema on the host web .  That’s right.  You can deploy...
I’ve always founds IRM quite fascinating and the nice thing about Office 365 is that it is really easy to configure and use.  There are a few steps involved, but I managed to figure them out without having to go read a heap of documentation. ...
