How do I add a link column to Sharepoint grid view?
You can use SPMenuField. It serves two purposes - it configures the hyperlink you follow if you click on the item directly and, optionally, links to a dropdown menu
This is a great primer on MSDN blogs about SPGridView

It looks to be supported by the Telerik SPRadGrid (which I trialed for my SharePoint apps not long ago). Using the Publishers SP List as source for the example I linked, you should have the Name column values as hyperlinks. You might give it a spin.

In SharePoint 2019 I create a calendar by going to: Settings Wheel > Add an app > Calendar
How can I then create a list view for the calendar? Can this be done by going to Calendar > Edit List, then creating a new view with the list view format? If so, how?
Or do you need to create a seperate page and add the calendar to that page as a web part, then edit that web part (or something similar)?
By list view I mean a vertical list of calendar items that span from today's date to 12 months in advance. However, I am less concerned with the specifics of the date range and more concerned with the basic how to. Thanks.
If you've been using Modern views and pages, the SharePoint calendar is likely very confusing because it still uses the "classic" view, even if the entire rest of your site is using the Modern UI.
Go open your calendar list to its default view.
In the upper left-hand corner, click on the small "Calendar" tab (see screenshot)
This will bring up the calendar "ribbon", and from there you have multiple View options to either edit the current view or create a new one (see screenshot)
For more details on List View creation, see https://support.office.com/en-us/article/create-change-or-delete-a-view-of-a-list-or-library-27ae65b8-bc5b-4949-b29b-4ee87144a9c9#OfficeVersion=2016,_2013,_2010 -- be sure to not actually look at the version of this page for SP2019, as it assumes you are editing a modern list.
I want to be able to filter a SharePoint list based on the values present (easy by clicking the filter button at the top of the list for each column). However I'd like to give options in a drop down menu and once chosen the list would be refilted based on the options I give. Is this possibile to do in the browser or would it require designer or actual code? Thank you.
This is all SharePoint 2010 Enterprise Server knowledge; I've never used 2007.
What #Ryan is alluding to here is that you can click a down-arrow on most list columns to filter them. One caveat is that if the column is multi-select, it won't display a drop-down. (SharePoint doesn't know how to group, filter, or sort on multi-select columns.) Another caveat could be that if you're displaying the list items in such a way that their headings don't appear (such as in a List View web part, or maybe in some of the styles...) you obviously won't be able to filter.
A solution might be to use a "SharePoint List Filter" web part, which uses a list column as the source for filter values which can then be sent to other web parts -- such as a List View web part. Presumably, you could use the list you're intending to filter as a source for the Filter web part itself. From a UX perspective maybe this might help you display the list with different styling, but still get the drop-down filter directly in the content area.
A caveat with the "SharePoint List Filter" web part is that it's not actually a drop-down per se, but instead shows a little filter icon that pops up a dialog in which users then have to select a value.
Note there's also the "Managed Metadata Navigation" feature that would give users dropdowns (for e.g. choice columns) and metadata filter fields (for managed metadata columns). These show up in the Quick Launch (left-nav area) if configured on the list/library settings. The feature must first be enabled on the site.
I am newbie to SharePoint Dev.I need to know how sharepoint dev approach towards a solution like menu drop down which shows list of categories like category 1, category 2 etc and by click on each category in menu. it display list of products. Categories main page should display slideshow of categories.
What is best way to apprach this senarios in sharepoint. how many list, webpart I have to develop? More option will be appreaciated.
How to decide which list, web part and work flow is required?
2 lists, 1 lookup field and a webpart showing the two items. No workflow required.
Is it possible to add a note board or other web parts to a Custom List? I would like to be able to have comments on list items.
any particular reason you don't want to use a discussion board? That's it's entire purpose.
Create a data view webpart for your list. This webpart will display one item at a time, so you have to filter this dataview webpart by Item ID using querystring. The page on which you will deploy this dataview webpart will also have noteboard webpart. Comments given here will stick to that particular item which will be displayed in dataview based on Item ID.
I would like to implement filtering on my sharepoint list. My list is having title and description columns and I would like to poulate the ASP.NET dropdown list control with titles and when I select the title I would like to show the description. I have followed the link http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc300163(office.12).aspx to implement this.
I have created a blank aspx page in Sharepoint Designer and followed the same steps. everything works fine but when I export the webpart, only description part is getting exported. I cannot see the drop down on the page (but when I preview it on the browser I can see both).
In your question you say that you are creating a aspx page and then exporting a webpart.
It could be that you are placing the drop down on one thing and exporting another.
