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

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 am trying to create a dashboard via SharePoint and I would like to create a section beneath a displayed document where users can type and submit a description of what is going on in the document above. I don't want the users to be able to edit the site page in order to add text to the page so I believe the best solution would be the creation of a web part where a user can create and submit their desired description. The only web parts that I've come across to do something like this are the Note Board web part and the Microfeed web part. The Microfeed part seems too much like a social media page. My problem is I would like to try the Note Board web part but whenever I insert it on the page it never displays an area to type in, just the title "Note Board".
So it seems that this problem came up because of the way my account is related to this particular SharePoint site that I am editing. My account doesn't have a profile attached to it essentially and the way that these notes are shared and stored directly relates to having one of these profiles. The Note Board Web Part turned out to be working perfectly fine my account is just not capable of posting within it. (I figured I'd answer incase anyone else comes up with this problem.)
We have a special situation at our office where we "close" off a site collection when a project is complete. Our architecture is setup such that each project in play is it's own site collection. When the project is complete we close the project in SP by setting the site collection to read-only.
Part of our business would like to still view the closed site collections, but doesn't want to go through a list of them (I mean excel spreadsheet or some other external form of tracking), but instead wants to do it from a page in SP. Our solution is to modify one of our other solutions (search query web part that finds all site collections they belong to) and only search on closed site collections.
I know how to determine if a site is ReadOnly or not in Powershell (#spSite.IsReadOnly), but that isn't going to work here and going through the properties in search I couldn't find anything that jumped out at me to do this. Does anyone know how to return ReadOnly site collections in a Search Query Web Part?
Thank you.
I know of a managed property called: SiteClosed but I haven't got the slightest idea what it does. Looking at the name this might be the one to start with.
If this doesn't work I'm afraid the only other option is to create a custom Web Part...
The question is almost asked in the title but some more detail:
I've created in a Power Pivot Gallery a connection to my Tabular model and a Power View report. The report looks great, I think Power Pivot/Power View is a pretty cool technology, etc. etc.
I look at videos like this and I see a gorgeous report without the ugly frame and I can't help but think... how basic is this? The best I can do so far is putting a link to the report in a web page Web Part and it looks hideous. I want this to be part of a dashboard, if possible, though a Power View report already kind of fulfills that function.
Not only that, but my google-fu is failing me. There's tutorials for putting up PerformancePoint stuff for a dashboard but I can't find a step by step for this.
I know Sharepoint questions are frowned upon it seems but that SO sub-domain seems dead. A link to a tutorial or a basic explanation should be more than enough.
Very good question! I'm also trying to do this and I can't find a good tutorial either, not sure if this will help but here's what I have so far:
Step 1
Site Settings > Manage Site Features
Enable BICenter Data Connections Feature
Enable PerformancePoint Services
Step 2
Site Contents > add an app
Add DataConnections Library for PerformancePoint
Add PerformancePoint Content List
Step 3
Go into your instance of PerformancePoint Content List
Click PERFORMANCEPOINT in the ribbon
Click Dashboard Designer
Step 4
This is where the blind leads the blind, welcome to the bleeding edge!
So inside Dashboard Designer on the left panel (Workspace Browser), you should see the instances of DataConnections and PerformancePoint that you just created. Select the DataConnection. At the top you'll see Home/Edit/Create - click Create then Data Source (which might be the only choice currently enabled, it is for me).
Now you can choose to import data from SQL, Excel, a SP List, etc...I've tried several options but no matter what I do, I get this error message: "Cannot connect to PerformancePoint Services. Contact the administrator for details."
Hope this will at least point you in the right direction for now. If I can solve that error and continue on, I'll come back with more steps for you.
How can I customize share point portal and do it in a way that is easy to create and maintain. Below is a sample of the portal I inherited from someone else who was using images all over. I outlined in red each image. This image method introduces a lot of rigidity and loads of manual labor to make updates and changes.
can this be done using CSS or somethign other than images?
I tried using this site but i think it falls short and only allows customization of basic share point objects.
As a bonus i would like to see if its possible for each portal in the group that represents a particular project pull project related details like "milestones" from a SQL driven project management system we had home grown. Our team has about 25 projects at any given time.
For SharePoint Branding questions then Heather Solomon's blog is the first place to go to.
Especially have a look at the Resources on the right such as the CSS reference
