How to Create Folders in a SharePoint Wiki Library? - sharepoint

In Team Foundation Server 2010 Team Project Portal how can I create sub-folders in the Wiki section?

Customize the Wiki
Goto Advanced Settings and enable Make New Folder option.. tada!

The Wiki functionality is just a Sharepoint functionality. Adding folders is not available by default in a SP Wikisite. For a workaround, read http://sharepointpratik.wordpress.com/2011/04/06/create-folder-in-wiki-page-library/

Do the following.
Open settings menu for a library:
Find advanced settings:
In advanced settings find "Make 'New folder' command available" and choose 'Yes'. Confirm your settings.
Go back to your page library and evidence 'Folder' command in 'New' menu:

For some versions of SharePoint, you can also grant Manage Hierarchy permissions to the user and/or group, then you can use a “/” in your link and SharePoint will automatically create the folder for you.
For example, the link might be [[SubFolder/Home|Home Page for Sub Folder]], which will create the Home page in the folder named SubFolder.
Perform the following steps:
Click to Site Actions.
Click Site Settings.
Click Site permissions.
Check the box next to the user or group of interest.
Click Edit User Permissions.
Check the Manage Hierarchy box.
Click OK.

Sharepoint user permission

I have a SharePoint site where I am the admin and I have full control permission. One of the users created a link on the navigation menu, but I cannot edit it or delete it. The user is no longer on the site. I checked the permission again, and it shows I have full control.
How do I modify or delete the link and its page?
I tried giving myself more permission, but that did not help. I thought full control covers everything.
On the edit mode, some links are editable, but the one I need to remove doesn't give me that option.
If it is a link to a list/library, it might not be permissions related. Check the List/Library Settings, "Name, Description and Navigation" option:

change URL spelling/case on sharepoint library

I have a sharepoint library that was created by a user with a url like "/mysite/MyLIBrary"
I want to change the case of the URL to be correct so it reads "/mysite/MyLibrary"
I cannot figure out how to do this in the sharepoint designer. Just renaming the library doesn't change the URL.
You should be able to select Document Library in SharePoint designer and Rename. This updates the Title of the list, not actual name.
After this you will also have to rename Library in "All Files" (Left-Botton in SharePoint Designer). Select the library, right-click and rename.
HTH!
Just go to a library trough 'All Site Content'. When inside the library choose on the ribbon 'Library' tab. Then select 'Open with Explorer'. That will open your SharePoint's library in Windows Explorer window. Navigate one folder up and you will see list of your libraries as folders. Rename required library's folder name as you want the URL to look like.
You can goto "Site Actions-->Site Settings-->Look and Feel-->Navigation-->Navigation Editing and Sorting" to change its URL's case.

Delete link for documents in Sharepoint Document Library

In the Sharepoint Document Library web part, is there a way to have a delete link for each of the files listed?
In the regular view of a document library you have a dropdown available when you hover over a filename, but there doesn't appear to be any option to delete a file in the web part.
Make sure you have proper permissions to delete the document. Usuallay if you have permission then you will see "Delete" option in the drop down menu.
Goto Site Actions -> Site Settings -> Modify All Site Settings -? Advanced Permissions
Click the appropriate group and make sure the user has permission to delete documents.

Sharepoint 2010: Can't create a folder in a custom list

I'm trying to create folders in a set of custom lists I've created. However, when I try to do this, the New Folder button in the Ribbon is disabled. I read up on the matter; and this lead me to look to enable folder creation in List Settings -> Advance Settings. However, there doesn't seem to be an option to enable folder creation on the page. It shouldn't be a permission related issue; as I created the lists; and I'm also an admin on the farm.
I could use a document library; but we will not be uploading documents to the list; so this is more then I need.
What are my options, or what am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Frank
Go the the List Settings, go to Advanced List Settings and there should be an option there that reads: "Make "New Folder" command available?" Set that option to yes and you can create folders.
Good luck,
Patrick
I figured this out. Turned out I was using a prerelease version of SP 2010; this was a bug.
Have you tried using a Wiki Page Library instead? It's possible to add folders inside these.

How do I remove the "Personalize this Page" option in WSS 3 with feature code?

How can I remove the "Personalize this Page" option in WSS 3.0? I'd like to do it in code with a feature at the web application level if possible.
It's a permission and can be accessed in the web UI of WSS:
Site Settings > People and Groups (under Users and Perms) > Site Permissions (left quick launch bar) > Settings > Permission Levels
Under each Permission Level there is a long list of permissions to include. At the bottom uncheck the items under Personal Permissions (mainly "Manage Personal Views").
I'm doing research on how to do it in code but our project requires custom user group administration so we just won't give them the option to Manage Personal Views.
Alternatively, the 'Personalize this Page' option will only be visable on pages containing web part zones that allow personalization. If you are using customised page layouts then you could set the 'AllowPersonalization' property to false on your web part zones.
Alternatively, you could enforce the shared view, thus disabling personalizations on your page.
To accomplish this, do the following in any webpart, in the overriden OnLoad():
if (WebPartManager.Personalization.Scope == PersonalizationScope.User)
{
WebPartManager.Personalization.ToggleScope();
}
However, this is not generally considered best practice because it could potentially affect the behavior of other webparts in your page.
It CAN be done and pretty easily. Open up Welcome.ascx in c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\CONTROLTEMPLATES
and underneath <SharePoint:MenuItemTemplate runat="server" id="ID_PersonalizePage"
add Visible="False"
works perfectly but will change it globally for all sites. Add the same code to any of the other sections if wanted.
