I hope someone has met this need before. I got quite a bunch of documents in a Sharepoint site. And I want to download all the docs as a whole instead of one by one. I have tried the Teleport Pro but it just said HTTP 401 Unauthorized error. Is there any way to download the whole Sharepoint document-sharing site?
Many thanks.
If you have WebDav enabled, you can just open your sharepoint site as network folder and copy paste the documents into your local hard drive.

You can use DMS-Shuttle for SharePoint for this purpose. With one drag & drop (or CTRL+C, CTRL+V ) you can download a document library or the whole site with all subsites and document libraries. You can define different filters (by modified date, size or file extension). There is a Trial Version here.

You can use the Open with Explorer function to open the document library in Windows Explorer, where you can select all the files you want and simply copy them to your destination. Note that this function only works in Internet Explorer, not in Edge or any other browser. There are ways to make it kind of work in modern browsers, but that requires custom code. You can, however, save the location of the document library to the Quick access list to make it easier to find.
Another option seems to be the SharePoint Bulk File Download web part, but I believe this is a paid tool that must be purchased after the trial.
I use Open with Explorer all the time, but I have never tried the mentioned web part.
Is there any way to make a full backup of Sharepoint Online web site based on Office 365 without third-party tools? Tried to google it, but found only ways to manually backup list or libraries. I'm need to save user properties, permissions, webparts, etc.
Thanks for help!
Since it is SharePoint online, you won't be able to perform a full-backup as you'd be able to do with Backup-SPSite.
However, you can save your site as a template. If your publishing feature is enabled for this site, you'll need to enable saving the website as a template via SharePoint Designer. Under the "Site" tab, select “Site Options”, find "SaveSiteAsTemplateEnabled" and set to "true". Then
add this to your site's url:
/_layouts/15/savetmpl.aspx
Fill out and submit the form. In my experience, that should take about 10 minutes, or the working on it screen might never change. If the later happens, you can check for your solution on this page:
/_catalogs/solutions/Forms/AllItems.aspx
This option might not work if your site is over 50MB, so you might need to forgo checking the option that allows including your list content in this backup.
I'm looking to use Redmine for document management. I know that Redmine is not ideal for this task but there is already a lot of content on the site so I'd like to utilize it if possible.
Redmine currently does not a have great documents module. The files we've uploaded look to be amended on that specific page and it doesn't seem to be able to move to another page (unless you download and re-upload to the proper page).
Idea 1
I see there is a Files section, which could work as a central repository (and you can upload document based on release) however, is there a way to set up a nice-looking 'front-end' page that automatically updates based on new submissions to the Files tab? I envision this front end to be a simple wiki page with the document name, a short description and a links to the file posted in the Files tab.
There are so many documents uploaded to varying pages on the Redmine site. I would only do the whole download and re-upload of files if there was a way to automatically update the 'front end' wiki.
Idea 2
I see there is a DMSF plugin for Redmine. Has anyone used this before and has is solved document management issues? I'd like to hear your feedback. Even if DMSF doesn't totally solve my issue, anything is better than what I have now.
Thanks!
In my opinion DMSF module is a perfect companion for Redmine. We have adopted it in our company. You can easily deal with document versions, webdav access, custom approval workflow, document modifications notification with the extra value of being well integrated with Redmine features (roles, dynamic links in Wiki and issue text and notes).
How can I move a document library from one site to another on the same server.
Both source and destination sites are under the same root site.
The Sharepoint Content Deployment Wizard is awesome for this sort of thing. Highly recommended and open source.
I've had success simply opening up explorer view on both sites and dragging and dropping. I guess it depends on how complex your migration is.
Is it possible to create a SharePoint (wss3 or MOSS 2007) webpart, to allow files to be dragged and dropped onto it, which would then upload the files into a predefined document library ?
I imagine that this would require some form of client side scripting (Ajax ?), but my knowledge in ajax is a bit sketchy.
From my exploration so far, I'm thinking:
User drags file onto 'drop zone' Webpart.
This action triggers some code
This code Loads the file into a SharePoint library (like this : Uploading a File to SharePoint)
Any pointers would be gratefully recieved
Many thanks.

Well,
What I'd do is, like you said, a web part with javascript that allow the user to drag and drop some files into a zone inside the webpart. Once the user has finished I'll upload those files after click on a Button of the webpart. I think is better to work with SharePoint in an unique transaction and not upload and delete files using AJAX. So, the drag and drop functionality can be done using some kind of javascript like Scriptaculous and the other one like a classic postback.
You might also want to look at another way to perform this. If you do it in a webpart, you will need to add that webpart in every sites where you want this fonctionnality to work. You might want to try Sharegate (www.share-gate.com). It's a end user tool that allows you to drag and drop file from your computer (or any SharePoint list / library) to any SharePoint library. By dropping the document inside the library, you will be ask to select a property template where you can define all the properties attach to your document. Not only you will drag and drop documents, but you will structure the information at the same time. Hope this was helpful!
Perhaps my reply is little bit irrelevant to your post!
I think upload files to SharePoint is not a painstaking job, the build-in feature is enough for us to upload files.
The trouble, I think, lies in the check in process, may be that is what you should do!
Altought maybe not that important now, but there is a SharePoint addon on CodePlex now
that allows files to be uploaded by Drag & Drop into SharePoint document libraries.
Available here: http://dndupload.codeplex.com/
Works in Firefox & Chrome, uses FileApi from HTML5, supports both SharePoint 2007 & 2010.
