  • A look at content type hubs in SharePoint Online (Office 365)

    For those of you familiar with SharePoint 2010, the content type hub is nothing new to you.  However, in SharePoint Online, the content type hub works a little differently.  The first thing to know is that a content type hub has been set up automatically for you.  You just have to know...

  • A quick look at the content type editor in Visual Studio 11

    Visual Studio 11 introduces a new content type editor that you might find useful when building your next content type.  It starts with a SharePoint Project Item that you can pick from the New Item menu. From this screen, give your new content type a name and then you’ll be presented with this next...

  • Using CAML to deploy a lookup column via Feature

    This week, I needed to deploy lookup columns to some of my lists and as usual I wanted to avoid writing code at all costs.  As some of you may know, Kyle Kelin and I debate this topic often as he prefers a code approach.  I figured it had to be possible with CAML, but many claimed it was not...

  • A Note on Content Type Inheritance

    I ran into this issue a while back so I thought I would post on it. I had a scenario where we wanted to create a simple content type to use as a base content type for all future content types at a comapany (i.e.: Company Base Document). At the time we did not know what site columns we wanted included...

  • How to: Create a Custom Document Library

    Not too long ago, I talked about how to remove the Explorer View from a document library. As part of the post, I mentioned that I would post how to build a custom document library in the near future. That is what I am covering today.

  • Implementing Metadata Inheritance using an ItemEventReceiver

    When implementing an ECM solution, it is often necessary to come up with a way for documents to inherit metadata from a parent folder.

  • Creating a Content Type based Folder in SharePoint via Feature Receiver

    I have been working a lot with document libraries again and in this particular implementation, I had a need to create a pre-determined set of folders upon document library creation that were based upon a custom content type. I couldn't find a way to do it with CAML (maybe I am just a noob), so I...
