If you haven’t heard, Microsoft released a new site recently that allows you to create a new Office 365 tenant that is pre-populated with users, content, and social data. It even comes with demo scripts that you can use to walk users through the...
My PowerShell posts always prove to be the most popular. I showed all sorts of cool PowerShell tricks in my talk back at SPC12. One of the things I covered was how to install and manage apps using PowerShell. Since there is a corporate...
It’s not uncommon for users to want to move data from an Excel spreadsheet into a new SharePoint list. There have been various techniques to achieve this, but Access 2013 provides a way to this pretty easily. The process is pretty simple. ...
I had a great time last night at the Austin SharePoint Users Group ( @AustinSPUG ). We had a great turnout and we had a good discussion of what the publication process looks like with SharePoint 2013 Apps in the Office Store. Austin has a...
At SPC12 , I gave a talk about PowerShell in SharePoint 2013. In that talk I upgraded a SharePoint 2010 site collection to SharePoint 2013. I wanted to follow-up with a blog post showing the steps involved. To begin the process, I have...
If you have tried to do any work with SharePoint 2013 Client Web Parts with the Office Developer Tools Preview 2 in Visual Studio 2012, you know it’s an exercise in frustration. It literally locks up every three or four lines of code you try to...
By now you may have noticed that Search has changed quite a bit in SharePoint 2013. The ResultScriptWebPart powers most of the magic behind the Search Center. It replaces the CoreResultsWebPart that we have been using since SharePoint 2007. ...
Every organization wants better search results. However, few have actually spent the time to create file plans, content types, and managed properties to make it happen. SharePoint 2013 has a feature called entity extraction though that can...
Although the new Result Source feature in SharePoint 2013 is really cool, writing queries against them is not. With scopes you could specify them by name (i.e.: All Sites or People). However with result sources, you must specify the id not...
This is one of those posts that I have promised to write but I totally forgot about. What I want to talk about today is passing parameters to SharePoint 2013 Client Web Parts. These parameters are equivalent to the properties on traditional...
During SPC12, Preview 2 of the Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2012 came out. You can get it using the Web Platform Installer. This made a few improvements in how we build Client Web Parts (App Parts). Earlier this...
Looking back at my analytics, I found that my People Search in SharePoint 2010 was quite popular. I thought I would update that post for SharePoint 2013. The process is similar but there are a few things to be aware of. People Search...
Sorting search results has always been an interesting subject in SharePoint. It was actually harder to do than you would think. In SharePoint 2007, all you had was relevance and modified date (write). The KeywordQuery class did not have...
Over the past few versions of SharePoint, I have provided a number of blog posts on how to query search. Of those, my posts on how to use the KeywordQuery class using KQL are some of the most popular ( 2010 and 2007 ). In continuing that tradition...
If you know me then you know I’ve been doing a lot of work with apps lately (SP2 – link , twitter ). I started developing primarily with an on-premises virtual machine running SharePoint 2013, but I have recently switched to using SharePoint Online...
