Selecting a Meeting Workspace in a Sub Site

Hi all,
I have created a bunch of Meeting Workspaces in a subsite of my SharePoint site (i.e., http://domain/team/workspace) and I was wondering how to create an Event in a Calendar located on the root site and select one of the meeting workspaces in the subsite.
At the moment it seems to only allow existing workspace selection within the scope of the current site. Is what I am asking even possible?
I understand that it may not be possible out of box, but could be achievable with some customization so I am wondering if anyone knows how or can at least point me in a direction with some ideas of how I can get this to work?
Thanks in advance!

Hello Alex Brassington
I had to convert a bmp to jpg so you could see the Meeting Workspace but whats happening is that in this
Decision Workspace you click "New Item" and give the meeting a name then under "Attendees" you click the
Checkbox and you enter the name of the people are to appear at the meeting lastly there are there is the Subject
and if you have any related documents relating to the meeting.
The problem is that when you want to schedule a subsequent meeting sometime in the future, the same
names information appears on the meeting Workspace. So the question how do you save the old information
regarding the meeting and clear it so that you can enter the information related to the new meeting and the
people who are going to be attendees to that meeting?

2007 Meeting Workspace move via content and structure not working

We are trying to move several meeting workspaces from a 5th level sub-site to a 2nd level site within the same site collection. We know regular sites at the same or different level can be moved, but for some reason the meeting workspaces won't move.
Publishing feature is activated on the destination, and we have moved test sibling sites into different sibling sites. Error we keep getting is:
'Site in question' cannot be moved or copied into itself or one of its subsites
Are there special permissions needed above site collection admin? My farm admin is having better success than I am at moving things within the site collection for these workspaces.

Looks like you just need to be patient! ~=^)
1. Move modal comes up
2. select destination
3. *** wait for modal window to post back
4. then you can click "OK" to move the actual sites

Move Documents from a site to a sub site with SharePoint on Office 365

Good Morning,
I am trying to configure my Content Organizer Rules to send documents uploaded in one site (e.g. contoso.sharepoint.com/DropOffLibrary) to a library in a sub site (e.g. contoso.sharepoint.com/testSite/destintionLibrary). I have turned on the Content Organizer
for both sites, checked the setting that "<label for="ctl00_PlaceHolderMain_enableCrossRoutingSection_crossRoutingCheckBox">Allow rules to specify another site as a target location", and </label>ensured the content type was
on the Drop Off Library and the destination library. The Content Type was a custom type that included custom columns.
I created a rule based upon one of those columns that sent the document to the correct library (site) based upon the choice made. The column did not accept any value except the choices provided. When I try to enter the destination for the document,
the sub-sites are not listed as options to select and neither are the libraries contained within them. When I enter in the URL for the targeted library, the message "A valid target path must be selected." appears. If I create the same rule,
targeting the local library, it works.
Any ideas on why this is not working for me?

Hi Zac,
In order to route documents from one site to another, please make sure you have set up a send to location in Records Management in SharePoint admin center for the destination site.
For more information, you can refer to the blog;

How can i upload two different logos for 2 sub sites [which falls under one super site ] in share point 2013 ?

hello,
How can i upload two different logos for 2 sub sites [which falls under one super site ] in share point 2013 ?
thanks,
Jay

Hi,
I understand that it applied first logo to all other sub sites.
Please make sure that you change the logos in the subsites.
If we change the logo in the root site, the logos in the subsites will be changed at the same time.
However, we can change the logo in the subsites separately.
We can go to a subsite, click the Site Sitting-> Look and Feel-> Title, description, and logo->Insert Logo->select a picture, then it will has a different logo than the root site.
Then go to the other subsite, click the Site Sitting-> Look and Feel-> Title, description, and logo->Insert Logo-> select another picture, then it will has a different logo that the first subsite.

Design issue - Use (sub)sites or pages

My client has a complex organisation. A lot of departments.
The startpage of the site has to be a portal where a few people can upload documents. After checking thes documents (by 3 powerusers) the documents must be copied to the department sites. The best way to do that is using a workflow, I think. But if I create
subsites then the copy process will be difficult as a 2013 workflow cannot copy content over (sub)sites. A solution might be to use a page for each department but the autorisation and some other problems might pop up.
Any suggestions I did not think off?
Thanks, Mike

Hi Mike,
You can create a content type called departments and have your departments(HR, R&D etc..) as choice. Once you are done creating this content type, create a document library with that content type and once the document is approved you can either run a
workflow or have the approver fill up that department column to select the appropriate department that document belongs to. This can be done on the portal or the starterpage. And on the departments page or subsite you can use content query webpart to display
those documents accordingly.
Thanks,

Cannot create a Sharepoint meeting workspace in a Outlook 2010 meeting request

I am using Sharepoint 2010 and Outlook 2010. I am trying to create a meeting request and also create a sharepoint workspace attach to that meeting request in Outlook.
First I click Create button and then it would let me choose a location for the workspace server in a drop-down box. I chose "other...". After I input my sharepoint site URL in the Workspace Server, Outlook does not recognize the address and a windows
popup saying "The operation could not be completed because of a problem found on the server or the server could not be found."
I checked the thread below and it doesn't solve my problem at all.
There is no reason why this should not be working. I also created a meeting workspace in sharepoint, and can't even link it to an outlook meeting request when pasting the direct link from the browser.
Did Microsoft break this and forget (or not care) to tell anyone?

Hi,
I found a similar thread and someone posted a solution:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/f/154/t/735.aspx
I've quoted the solution and you can try if this fits your scenario:
The issue with Outlook not being able to find a Meeting Workspace is usually due to authentication not being passed correctly. Adding Trusted Sites information to Internet Explorer lets the browser know to allow the authentication to pass.
Open Internet Explorer
Go to: Internet Options -> Security -> Local Intranet -> Sites -> Advanced
Add: *.sharepoint.com , *.microsoftonline.com , *.lync.com , *.outlook.com
Click Save
Then go to Internet Options -> Security -> Trusted Sites -> Sites
Add: https://*.sharepoint.com ,
https://*.microsoftonline.com ,
https://*.lync.com ,
https://*.outlook.com
Click Save
Close Internet Explorer
Open Internet Explorer
Goto login.microsoftonline.com and sign in, make sure "keep me signed in" is checked.
Go back to outlook and the meeting workspace button will work now.
Note Since you are using Sharepoint 2010, in the example above it's SharePoint Online, the URL you need to add is your own SharePoint Site URL. Also login your own page as you should not be using login.microsoftonline.com.

How to create separate Meeting Workspaces and attendees of the meetings from subsequent Meeting Workspaces and it's Attendees

Hello Community
    I created an "objective" and "Agenda" in a Meeting Workspace and added
"Attendees".
    Later on I created another "objective" and "Agenda" in a Meeting Workspace
but, the "objective/Agenda" and Attendees from the last "objective/Agenda" remain visible.
    The question is how do you create an objective/Agenda and apply the
attendees that will attend that "Meeting Workspace" and then later create
another "objective/Agenda" and enter the "Attendees" to that new Meeting Workspace?
    Note: Another way to ask the question is how do you separate and save
each Meeting Workspace its "objective/Agenda" and its attendees subsequent
objective/Agenda and its attendees so that you can see each individual meeting
and the attendees of that meeting?
    Thank you
    Shabeaut

Hi Shabeaut,
We could create/link to a meeting workspace when we create a calendar event as I posted above, we could also create a meeting workspace without creating an event.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-foundation-help/create-customize-and-delete-a-meeting-workspace-site-HA010378262.aspx
Here is the reference for Decision Meeting workspace:
http://techwirenews.com/2013/01/15/using-decision-meeting-workspace-in-sharepoint-2010-office-365-part-ii/
In most cases, each meeting workspace is dedicated for certain meeting event in one to one relationship. You need to create difference workspaces for differenct meetings.

What will Meeting Workspaces look like in SharePoint 2013?

We are looking to upgrade to SharePoint 2013, and are concerned about the Meeting Workspaces. I understand that they need to be operated in 2010 mode, how does this work? Do we need to switch from 2013 to 2010 and then back again, based on
what site/subsite we are on? What does this look like? How can we fix this, is there a way to change the existing meeting workspaces to team sites instead? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Please refer to Discontinued features and modified functionality in Microsoft SharePoint 2013
and note, all Meeting Workspace site templates are no longer available as a site option:

"List does not exist" error in a sub-site (ListViewWebPart )

Hi all,
I have a site collection, with several lists/libraries in the root site. I wanted to display the list in sub-sites, using the List View Tool / Save webpart (in SharePoint designer) to save the
XsltListViewWebPart to the site gallery and adding it to publishing pages in my sub-site. Sometimes it works fine, but sometime I get the error: "List does not exist. The page you selected contains a list that does not exist. It may have been deleted
by another user."
When I refresh the page (F5), the error disappears and the page displays well. It seems that only contributors to the list/library have the issue.
Any workaround?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
The error occurs only for users who have "Contribute" access to the lists. Sometimes everything is working well and sometimes the error occurs (not always) and a simple refresh of the page make
it disappear. There is no specific permissions on lists items: contributors have rights on the whole list.
Another point: this error occurs only on “Publishing pages”, not on “site pages”. I assume then that it is linked with the publishing feature.
Hope this clarifies?

Cpo

Show Meeting WorkSpace Calendar in another WorkSpace

Hi,
At my organization, we have an area for Meeting Workspaces.
Within the Meeting WorkSpace, a user has created a list for a Calendar. Within this list, there is a Calendar called Governors Key Dates.
The Meeting WorkSpace has a number of Meeting WorkSpace lists. A large number of these lists needs to be able to display the "Governors Key Dates" calendar. I can easily create a hyperlink to the calendar but the user would like the actual calendar
showing as a web part (or similar) in a number of lists.
Do you guys have any ideas of how I can go about achieving this? I have tried manipulating the content web part to no avail.
Thanks
Sanjay

Hi Sanjay,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to show the calendar list in the Meeting Workspace.
I recommend to use the Event Calendar Listing Web Part (SharePoint 2010) to display the calendar list in the Meeting Workspace.
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/78532/Event-Calendar-Listing-Web-Part-SharePoint
Or you can create a SOAP data source of the calendar list in SharePoint Designer and then insert a data view web part of the calendar list in the page you need.

Meeting Workspace Page Customizations

I am attempting to customize the layout of the default "Multi-Page" Meeting Workspace. In the past (SP2007) I was able to go in and simply customize the page from the site definition. I can customize the page in Advanced Edit Mode,
however whenever I do, I can no longer reopen that page using SPD. The page will render fine in the browser, and any Web-Part Zone that was added is available. I should note that I have tried something as simple as adding a table row below the
default layout and get the same behavior. Can someone please explain why this is happening and what alternatives that are out there to achieve the results that I want?
Below are screenshots of the error message that I am receiving:

Hi Jon,
According to your description, my understanding is that the error occurred when you edit the default page of Multi-Page Meeting Workspace site.
Did you connect SharePoint site with the site’s FQDN in SharePoint Designer?
If yes, please make sure that the SharePoint Designer 2010 access to your site collection via the collection's FQDN is enabled.
I recommend to edit the public URLs in Central Administration and enter the FQDN for the site collection.

Content Type settings inside a sub-site are going to be ignored, and it will use the parent content type settings

I have an enterprise site collection with the following content type settings inside the list content type (columns such as security, document type, etc as required):-
Then I have created a new sub-site of type enterprise wiki, the default list content type for the subsite will look as follow which have the columns such as security, document type as optional :-
But now if I went to the sub-site and I chose to create a new page, and i leave all the columns empty, then the system will raise an error that the columns such as; security, document type, etc are required. although inside the sub-site content type the
columns are defined as optional. So seems that the wiki page inside the sub-site is referencing the parent content type and not its own sub-site content type.
Can anyone advice on this please ?

Hi John,
I tested the same scenario per your post, however the columns retained the same settings in sub-site in the same content type.
I recommend to verify the things below:
Was the content type you used for creating the page the one created in the parent site?
Did you create another content type in sub-site based on the one created in parent site? I recommend to click the column name to go inside the column settings and then check if the Optional is selected. If yes,
change it and click OK, then change it back to Optional again to see if the issue still occurs.
Best regards.
Thanks

1. no
2. no. i did not create any content type. i have just create a new subsite of type enterprise wiki , and the content type settings will be same as the parent content type, which have all these columns set as optional. but seems these settings will be ignored
as these columns will raise an error if i leave them empty. so seems that the subsite's library will use the same settings as its parent site collection library, which have these columns set as required...
so i have the following , to make things clearer:-
1. inside the site collection , the content type at the site collection level have these columns as optional.
2. inside the site collection's library the list content type copy, have these columns as required.
3. on the subsite list content type copy, i have these columns as optional. but these columns on the subsite library will be treated as required columns ...
