I like to check if there is a way to allow Document Library Search feature to function but when user tries to search in Main Site Search Box, document library items are not returned in the result list?
I have tried to add search query but it does not work.
Thank you.
I've not done this myself but I think you would need to go in to the site settings and play around with the Search area to get something like this to work. I think the area you would have to tinker with would be Result sources.
Hope this helps

I want to enable quick search on records and include regarding notes on that search.
I am able to do it through advanced find but look for a way to it with quick search.
I am using dynamic crm 2013 on premise.
Any suggestions for that issue ?
Thank you,
My suggestion is to create a custom quickfind search page and attach it to the sitemap.
Inside the search page you can easily get the actual entity quickfind fetch and layout xml or create your custom advance find query and tailor the results into an advanced find iframe.
Would someone be willing to offer me some assistance with customizing the search results page and the search box web part properties.
First problem: Search Box Properties
When I add an additional query term (eg. fileextension="xml") the search runs as expected but the refinement panel dissapears on the search results page. I don't want it to dissapear! I just want certain filters to be pre-applied.
Second Problem: Search Results Page
How do I customize the way results are displayed. For instance, I would like to add different refinement options to the refinement panel. I would also like to change what information is displayed under each individual result. Currently it seems to show a summary of the content, followed by the author and sometimes the date. I'd like to change this. How???
Any help greatly appreciated.
The results part you need to update the XSLT, You can do this via one of the web part properties. You will also need to make sure that the fields you want to put in to the results are included in your columns(Also a web part property)

Refinement options are based on Your crawled properties. Check this out

Not sure as to why your refinement panel is disappearing, Check to see if the URL changes dramatically when you add your fileextension="xml" to the web part property, it may be that this addition is changing the URL so much the refinement panel is loaded or can't load but don't hold me to this

I have a basic knockoutjs project loading data from a SharePoint 2013 list scenario. Getting data and displaying data is easy, the problem that I'm running into is on the edit mode displaying the proper control. Everything should not be a textbox. This means the people picker control to dropdownmenus to calendar controls.
MSFT has some pretty good documentation on using the client side people picker control here"http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/jj713593.aspx
The problem that I have is calling this control inside my viewmodel.
Setting the value of the control doesn't look difficult courtesy of this blog post: http://www.sharepointcolumn.com/sp2013-setting-people-picker-value-in-newform-aspx/
I attempted to looking into computed values, but that doesn't seem to work. Does anyone have a blog post that I skipped over? The closest related post that I can find: http://yetanothersharepointblog.wordpress.com/2012/12/11/working-with-sharepoint-lookup-columns-in-knockout-js/
Lastly since it seems that I'm the only one doing this, does anyone think that I should not be reinventing the wheel with my forms and should just link each item to the appropriate SharePoint list item in edit or display view? I suppose that would be easier.
From a SharePoint Professional to another, I would highly recommend you to do that.
Just redirect the user to the item edit/display item page an let SharePoint take the leash of how to handle UI form elements.
Because, assume that you implement your custom form, what if the user decides to add one more site column to the list? Will you update your code to support another field?
From my personal experience with the beast I've come to the conclusion that structural implementation over already existent functionality tends to go wrong.
Also, if you have some kind of listing of items custom made and you want to provide editing, try to do something opening a pretty SP.UI.ModalDialog, its elegant and you use the sharepoint to do the work for you.
But it's just an advise.
I have written a Dialog that uses an Advanced Find where the user types in part of a search term, i.e., similar to:
Dialog’s Query Step: Demystifying the Advanced Mode Capabilities.
In my case I created one to find all the Contacts in a post code area starting with "xyz..."
It works fine and I get the contacts in a picklist. How can I get this in a grid of results like you can for a regular advanced find? As I understand it the Query CRM data operation only gives you radio buttons or a list as output types. But is there some ingenious way of grabbing the results perhaps via a child workflow and writing them to a grid?
I'm sure you're looking for something a little more out of the box, but one approach would be to use an HTML web resource. You can mimic the dialog look and feel by using the CRM 2011 Style Guide included in the SDK (in the sdk\resources\styleguide folder).
I think this cant be done out of the box. You can of course create a webresource and then embed the advanced find view using fetchxml query.
Please take a look at the following url. Hope it helps.

I currently have a normal SharePoint list with about 15 columns or so. I need one of the columns to have a list of links. I know SharePoint lets you have 1 link and it also lets you have multiple lines of text... So I thought it would be there as an option, but no such luck. Anyone knows a solution for this? I wasn't able to find any info online, which doesn't happen often. I guess I wasn't looking for the right keywords? If anyone can point me into the right direction, it would be great!
Thanks

Maybe a multiplelines text field, and configured it to be Enhaced Rich Text enable. It would allow you to insert your links as in a HTML page (it would be the same as to use a CEWQ)
We have a custom filed CALLed Document Link Field that enabled you to link multiple documents to a list item, maybe this is what yuo are looking for. In any case either you need a custom field, or use a multiple lines of text
Infowise Document Link Field
