I have a sharepoint 2007 feature that contains a list template, however if I change my schema.xml the change doesnt apply
I tried deactivating and uninstalling the feature so i could install it again but that didn´t work.
Also based on this question:
How to update SharePoint feature?
I tried modifying the Version in the feature and reinstall but that didnt work either
¿How can I accomplish a feature update?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: I found that the only thing that isn't updating is the view element, I mean, if I change the display name it gets updated with the above procedure, but if I change a view it isnt updated
With SharePoint 2007, the "Version" is not really useful.
Your problem is that the list based on your template is already "provisionned" : Is has been created with a certain version of your list template and is not updated when you update your list template. This is "By Design"
I think you have to create a new list based on your list template....

I am working in Sharepoint Designer 2013 for my Sharepoint in Windows 365. I want to create a custom Form using Sharepoint Designer however when I click create a new form and then save this new form I get an error message:
I tried cleaning out the cache in location c:/Users/user/Appdata/Local/Microsoft/WebsiteCache
Has anyone had this problem and found a solution for it?
Could you follow some advice mentioned below:
Step 1: Create a new list item on your list. If it works, go to step 2. If doesn't, check our list columns (or content types of that list) - specially calculated fields and lookup fields.
Step 2: Create new custom form by SharePoint Designer 2013. If it doesn't work, try to clear SPD cache in location:
c:/Users/[your current user]/Appdata/Local/Microsoft/WebsiteCache
Hope it will help.
If anyone has landed here in 2020 onwards looking for the answer, the reason is that Microsoft have deprecated this feature.

I'm a bit new in Teamstudio xcontrol ( a bootcard based UI for xpage ) and i'm wondering if there is a property or a function that allows deleting of documents. I checked the FormViewer Custom control, FormEditor and any custom control that is related to domino documents or view but I haven't found any. I also checked the website of the xcontrol but I haven't found any. Do I miss something or do we really need to create the functionality on our own. Thanks in advance for the help!
They're isn't, however in the upcoming version 1.2 we do support the addition of custom buttons so you could add your own delete button.
I have stumbled across another problem after doing a successful migration. On one of the list, there are some missing fields when you go to edit an item. these same fields show up when you go to view an item. I do not recall hiding any fields and with with only two of 25 fields not showing is puzzling. Any ideas in the programming world as to what may have taken place?
Are you migrating code from 2007 to 2010? If so, you should look at these views in SharePoint Designer. You should have the ability to create a new View (with the desired fields), make it default and omit the older view.
I am guessing that the 2010 upgrade is a red herring and in fact whaat has happened is that
You've modified the edit form using SharePoint Designer (SPD) thereby 'fixing' the fields to those in place at that time.
You've later added some extra fields.
These will appear on the View as that wasn't edited and 'fixed' but not edit.
I have a SharePoint Designer workflow like the following: (just an example)
If ActionId equals 1
Email InfopathForms:Customer Email
Sometime later, it changes itself to the following:
If field equals 1
Email InfopathForms:
Where the field ActionId is lost and the Customer Email is lost too. Also in the email body, all the Lookup fields are also lost...
Has anyone had this problem before...?
This has happened like 6-7 times already... If anyone know a solution to fix it please let me know... much appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And is there some way to backup the workflow...? So I can easily restore it after it resets itself..?
sharepoint designer is not the most useful tool for developing and deploying workflows. I have not experieced this problem. Somthing simliar when two dev's were attacking the same list with sharepoint designer. could this be your problem?
I've noticed similar symptoms when variable names change... Is your InfoPath form changing? Or are the promoted fields changing? If so, I would expect this behavior. Simple fix is to update the variables in the workflow step, and then leave the InfoPath form alone. :D
We have the same issue.
I found that the lookup fieldname in the xoml file is diffrent if you re-link (pick) it.
An example: FieldName="WFOrder_x0020_Type" after re-link it is FieldName="WFOrder_x0020_Type0"
<ns0:LookupActivity ListId="{}{8FC10225-9397-4F5A-88B6-FE4C37A44970}" x:Name="ID645" FieldName="**WFOrder_x0020_Type**" LookupFunction="LookupFriendlyString" __Context="{ActivityBind ROOT,Path=__context}" ListItem="{ActivityBind ROOT,Path=__item}">
I open the xoml file in textpad and edit all the fields by adding the zero into the fieldname. Saved it and my workflow is working again.
Just to clarify, I did modify the InfoPath form and published it, where after my workflow lookup fieldnames got messed up.
I am using Windows Sharepoint Services 2.0 and was looking out for a way to add a new item to the Document Library toolbar along side 'New Document' menu item. I would like to add the menu item for the existing libraries as well as any new libraries created in future. Is this possible? I found that the toolbar items are defined in SCHEMA.xml file. But changing this would affect only the new libraries created right? Also editing this file seems complicated.
Appreciate any help.

Have a look at WSS 2.0 reference on MSDN : Customizing the Toolbar for a ListT
Editing schema.xml with WSS 2.0 isn't easy. But it's the "better" way to update lists behavior.
When you udpate schema.xml for a list (custom or not, but you better create a custom one, explanation here), some things a updated immediately, others after a iisreset, and some other only after creating a new list based on this schema file. Unfortunately, I don't remember all the cases.
Otherwise, you can try FrontPage 2003, but it depends on how many lists you have to update, and it breaks "page ghosting".
