How does search view work .and as I'm trying to make book app so how will search view will work if I want to find anything from
whole app .
you can achieve this with two methods,
first, make a custom search view and run a service on edit text data.
secondly, you can refer this repository for better details

I have a request from the customer that they want every time they create a subsite (publishing site) .We have to add a custom column to OOTB Documents list.
I have done some researching the way to add the custom column to
Documents list in onet.xml but have no luck .
Then i think about the work around solution that i create a
ScriptBlock custom action that will call javascript function which
will add the custom column to document list , then i will put this
custom action to a feature ,and finally i will reference that feature
in onet.xml.
It run well but the javascript function call every time i refresh the page. I just want it run one time when i active the feature.
Does anyone have any suggestion ? I use sandbox solution and Sharepoint Online .Sorry for my bad English
I don't think a custom action is the right way to do this, Custom actions generally need some sort of user interaction.
Get CKS dev tools in Visual studio
Create a new SharePoint solution
Add a new web template(CKS Dev) to your solution from the Add new item menu in VS
Create an additional feature (web) with a list template (Your documents Library and add your column)
Update the Web templates onet file
Also sometimes it's better to put up what your having issues with as you have said you have had no luck with the above, What is the issue you are having, Post some code up etc rather than going down the route of changing the way you implement the solution
Many Thanks

I am trying to make an app that can enable/disable the auto rotate feature on certain apps.
I have no idea if it's even possible to tell my app to access the users "App Drawer" to select certain apps. It's hard to explain but the best example that i can think of makes sense if you have used Tasker. In Tasker, when you start a new profile it brings up "Application" "Day" "Event" etc. and when you select "Application" a big grid menu pops up with all of the Apps that are in the users phone and it's titled "App Selection" I want to use something exactly like this but have no idea about how to go about it. Any advice would be appreciated or a link to any video that might help. Thank you very much for reading this!
I can answer part of your question.
1. To get the list of installed application you can use PackageManager
2. You can then create a view in which you put them in a gridview of some sort. (Using Packagemanager you can get its icon, package name etc)
I have implemented a search mechanism in my app. The user fill a textbox and then click on a button. is there a way to use the nice results view of Microsoft? i'm talking about the view you can see in the image attached.
I am giving you few resources, please check it out and let us know if you face any problem.
Guidelines and checklist for search (Windows Store apps)
Quickstart: Adding search to an app
Windows 8 and the future of XAML: Part 4: Contracts in WinRT/Windows 8
Search contract sample from MSDN
That's just a page and layout that someone created for that given app... given the Contoso branding it's some sample, though I don't immediately recognize it. I assume you saw the image, but don't have the source to it?
In Visual Studio, within an existing app you can use the Add>New Item dialog and select Search Contract to include a template page (with grid, filter combo box, etc.) to get you jumpstarted.
In the Windows 8 Camp Training kit, there is a fairly polished sample - Contoso Cookbook - that also includes a filtered search page, so that may be helpful as a start too.
I'm trying to create a web part that will enable users to edit items without ever leaving the AllItems.aspx page. The web part should have a similar functionality like the EditForm.aspx page.
I've created a simple web part with a ConnectionConsumer("Row") that successfully shows the selected ListItem but I'm trying to figure out how to programmatically create a form depending on the list with a save/update functionality.
I would appreciate a simple solution or a nudge in the right direction.
Thanks
What you are trying to do is not possible out of the box but it should be possible to use the SPGridView and the ListFieldIterator decorated with AJAX to get the things working as you wanted.
You can refer to the below items and build a control that does what you want.

Once you build it you can try sharing the code as this is a pretty common thing everyone wants and I didn't find a good implementation of this kind so far.
This definitely sounds like a nice feature. I would love it if you could put the solution on codeplex, you're choice of course.
I've had a sneak peak on SharePoint 2010 and AJAX enabled editing is found on lots of places so I wouldn't be surprised if some kind of feature like the one you are working on will be included.
Good luck!
I'm looking at using a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 wiki as a metadata repository. We basically want a community-driven dictionary and for various reasons we're using Sharepoint instead of say MediaWiki.
What can I do to customize or completely replace searchresults.aspx?
Features I'd add if I knew how:
Automatically load the #1 hit if it is a 100% match to the search term
Show the first few lines of each result as a preview so users don't have to click through to bad results
Add a "Page doesn't exist, click here to create it" link in cases where there's not a 100% match
I've got Sharepoint Designer installed and it looks like I'll be able to use it to upload any custom .aspx files I create but I don't see that it will give me access to searchresults.aspx.
Note: Since I plan to access this search tool from an external site via URL parameters it should be fine to leave the existing searchresults.aspx unchanged and just load this solution as a complementary search option.
Yes, everything is possible but you will need to customize it a little bit.
I would recommend you to build a custom web part to display your results. Here is a nice article to start with: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms584220.aspx
