If I already own a mybalsamiq site and have a team on it, how do I open a different one for an entirely different company, and entirely different group of users?
Balsamiq support answered my question:
Click on SETTINGS in the menu. On the left side you have a section of settings called Site Settings. The last one is ADD A NEW SITE.
Simple as that. For some reason this is not clearly written in the documentation and I couldn't find the answer on the web.
The fact that I missed the option when looking for it is either due to Banner Blindness or the fact that it seems like this section is for "THIS SITE" (after all it's "site info" and not Manage Sites...

I'm new here. I'm working on a SharePoint website and I want to create a different navigation bar for a part of pages while others use the global navigation bar. It is like they are different websites but actually they are not. I wonder is that possible? If it is, how can I make it?
In addition, according to my research, it's possible to have a different navigation bar if I create a subsite, right?
The problem now is that I don't have the permission to create a subsite, that's why I'm asking if I can create a different navigation bar for a set of pages.
Thank you!
For a SharePoint site, there are two sets of navigation.
One: Global Navigation. Two: Site Navigation (Which is mostly the sites Left side navigation)
These articles describes more about having multiple navigation elements in a site: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee695757.aspx

I have few surveys which are already created on share point. However they are not showing up the export to spread sheet option in the actions tab.
So after checking this link http://deinfotech.blogspot.com.au/2011/01/sharepoint-2007-surveymissing-export-to.html I wanted to follow its instruction.
But on my share point 2010 there is no "Closed Web parts" under share point web parts category list. Funny enough there is no "Advanced Web Part Gallery options" as well. see the screenshot.
Can someone please help me out here. I'm stuck for last 3 days on this and I'm very new to share point as well. What's wrong with my share point? Even if i used the share point designer i can't find the "Closed Web parts" section to re-drag them again.
You can get to closed webpart by appending contens=1 to the query string of the url.
ex: http://site/Pages/default.aspx?contents=1
I want to connect two list webparts. The problem is that when I go to "Edit Web Part -> Connections" this option "Connections" doesn't apperar.
Searching on google found this: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-sharepoint-services-help/connect-data-in-web-parts-HA010024105.aspx. There is a paragraph that says: "The Web Part menu may not be enabled or visible on your Web Part Page for several reasons, including that the Web Part or the zone does not support connections, you are using a browser that is not compatible with Windows SharePoint Services, or connections are disabled on your site"
I think connections are disable on my site. Where can I enable connections on a SharePoint site?
Thanks for your help!
Ha ha. In Internet Explorer 11, you have to view Sharepoint sites in "Compatibility Mode"! Imagine that! Without Compatibility Mode, IE won't display the connection menus - but Firefox and Chrome will! Apparently, this is even a problem with Sharepoint 2013.
I saw this problem even when Connections were enabled.
The workaround was to choose Edit Web Part and Click "Apply". This magically made the connection menu appear. However when the page is reloaded, the workaround needs to be applied again.
I'm not 100% sure if I remember correctly, but I had the same issue last week.
First you need access to the central administration at the sharepoint host.
In there, you have to click on "Application Managment" -> "Manage Web Applications"
Then select your web app and click on Web Part Security in the ribbon. If i remember right you should find an option there to allow connections between webparts.
Here in my experience I found that on wiki page web part connection is not possible, if you want to connect two web parts or two list, go and add your lists, or webpart onto webpart page, and on edit page connect them, ok.
There are some issue with placing filter web parts on a wiki page. The filter web part is not visible and it's impossible to select the webpart menu when in page edit mode.
I encountered it a few times. Like user2780851 states. Enable the publishing features, add a new (publishing) page (so in the 'pages' library not in the 'sitepages' library). When you add the filter webparts on this publishing page all the menu options (and the connection option) will be available.
I was able to get things to redisplay without using compatibility mode. In IE 11, what I had to do was hit F12 to pull up the developer menu, and then under the emulation tab, I switched my user agent to Internet Explorer 10, and then it started working correctly. My problem that lead me to this thread was that my web part menu wasn't displaying at all. This is a serious Microsoft fail. Probably why they are planning to abandon IE altogether. Good riddance, says I.
I've found that this issue has caused a lot of confusion, and led people to incorrectly think that connections between web parts isn't available on wiki pages.
The Connections option will appear as long as you are in the edit mode of any web part on the page - it doesn't have to be a web part which will be involved in the connection.

this is answer right i did it and it works
Platform: MOSS 2007 on server 2008
Sharepoint is working etc...
Problem: When you search for something, it doesn't find anything, no errors.
Authentication and permissions look fine. Search service is up and running.
What could be the problem? Any checkpoints I might have missed, any bad configurations I should check, etc...?
You should start with checking the crawl log files. That will probably give some valuable information.
Also double check that the SSP is set up correctly, with a valid content source setup, valid starting addresses, schedule etc.
Make sure that no crawl rules prohibit any searches.
And lastly, no 3rd party/custom security trimmers installed that prohibit results to be shown.
Doesn't work is not a lot of use is it.
My first guess is: Have you configured the search correctly (crawl schedules, content sources etc.)
To setup search (crawl etc.) go to the Central Admin site and then to your Shared Service Provider. in the SSP Select Seearch Adminstration. in the menu on the left you can find the link "Content sources". In the following page you can select the Content Source (something like "SharePoint sites" (out of the box). selct edit in the context menu and define your crawl schedule. Then select the "start a full crawl" checkbox.
You should make sure that you've indexed your site.
Can this be done by setting a property?
I'd prefer that approach then to remove all security before re-adding it.
(As this may have other consequences.)
Another option I can think of is to replace the particular webpart dll with a temporary one, and restart the .net process, but that's not an approach I like at all.
What other options are there? AM I missing something obvious?
What i'm trying to do is find a way to disable a webpart while we update the underlying database schema it's using, for example.
So we'd ideally like to disable a specific webpart for all users, whether it's on a mysite, or a community site, make the required changes and then re-enable it.
Thus decreasing the downtime for users.
Whatever the solution is, we need to be able to do it across multiple front end servers, on potentially two farms easily.
Thanks for your help.
Go to Site Actions -> Edit Page
You get all the web parts edited. Click on the "Edit" dropdown of the Web Part you want to disable and choose "Close".
The web part disappears, but don't fear! It's not gone for good!
To have it back:
-> click to Add a new Web Part -> Advanced Web Part Gallery and Options.
The very first option you have is to choose among "Closed Web Parts". When clicking on that link, you will have displayed a list of all the web parts you had closed. Just add the one you want back!
In the web.config, you can set safe="false" for the SafeControl tag for the webpart. This will cause the web part to render an error message until you set it back to true.

write code to set a value in property bag of the site, set the value through the code and in page lode of the web part check for the value of the property bag if set show the content else just skip.
hope you understood if not let me know i will make it clear.
