About Me link is not visible in Welcome Menu if placed on custom location in Custom Master Page

Experts,
I am facing a problem in my -ongoing SP 2013 project's branding. The problem is with Welcome Menu. I need to put the welcome menu at a custom place rather than in ribbon area. for this I added welcome menu snippet inside my Master Page HTML but there is
a problem with it. On ribbon link "About Me" is visible while at the same time link "About me" is not visible on welcome menu which has been inserted on custom place. below images describe my problem more accurately.
I need help in this regard if some one can help me. For your information My User Profiles are properly configured and working.

Hi Haris,
I tested the same scenario in my environment, and the link will display My Settings link instead of About Me link when there is more than one welcome menu in the page.
If you want to put the welcome menu at a custom place rather than in ribbon area, I recommend you remove the welcome menu in the ribbon area(suitebar) after putting the other welcome menu at the custom place.
Thanks,
Victoria

Adding Custom WebPart in AllUsersWebPart in SharePoint 2013

Hi,
I assume you are attempting to add this to a standard page layout and not a HTML Page Layout.
My suggestion is that you add your webpart to a standard content page in the browser first. Save the content page and check in / publishing a major version. Now open your site in SPD and navigate to the Pages library. Your content page should be listed.
Right click this content page and "Detach" the page from its page layout. You will receive a warning, ok that.
Once the content page has been detached from the page layout, open the content page in SPD and view the HTML source. Look for your custom webpart in the source. This is the tags / source that you need to add to your custom page layout. You can reattach this
content page to its page layout now if you wish.

Hi,
Did you have the correct "register" on your application page :
<%@ Register TagPrefix="WpNs0" Namespace="CustomForm.MyWebPartName" Assembly="CustomForm, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=8834df117dc574a9"%>

grid is diplaying as well.But in the toolpart,not in the webpart. I cant seem to segregate the two.There is also a textbox in the toolpart in which the entered text comes in the webpart.But the same approach is failing for the gridview.Please suggest

Also,i am failing at making a separate category for the toolpart by specifying [category("List settings")]..Any suggestion as to what i'm doing wrong in that are welcome too.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you have an issue about the custom web part.
Per my knowledge, we should customize the EditorPart instead of the
ToolPart to bind the lists to the dropdown list.
There is a good article about customizing web part, you can refer to it.

What are the possibilities and limitation of using Out of the box content search webpart on SharePoint Online 2013/O365 ?

Hi All,
We are migrating from on-premise SharPoint 2010 to SharePoint online 2013.
I have few questions below:
What are the possibilities and limitations of using Out of the box content search webpart?
Also, how the cross site publishing will work in SharePoint online something with managed navigations and product catalog apporach? if it is not supported, then what are the alternatives to acheive the same?
Appriciate any commnets/clarifications.Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Dhananjay.

Here are the possibilities of Content search webparts

Compare the strengths and limitations of the Web Parts
It’s important that you understand the strengths and limitations of the two Web Parts because if you choose the wrong one, your site could run into performance problems. You can use both Web Parts to show content that is based on a query. In a simplified
world, here’s how you can decide between the two:
Use the CQWP when you have a limited amount of content, your query is simple, and you don’t expect your content to grow much in the future.
Use the CSWP in all other scenarios when you want to show content that is based on a query.
The table below gives a comparison of the two Web Parts:
Web Part behavior
Content Query Web Part
Content Search Web Part
Query configuration
Easy
You’ll need to know about certain search features such as
managed properties.
Query across large amounts of content
Limited
Yes
Handle complex queries
Limited
Yes
Scale to handle future content growth
Limited
Yes
Display content from other site collections
No
Yes (see
section below)
Design of query results can be customized
Yes, by using XSLT.
Yes, by using HTML.
Maintenance cost in a complex site architecture
High
Small (see
section below)
Narrow down the query results that are displayed in the Web Part
No
Yes, in combination with the
Refinement Web Part.
It was not there previously but then it was added to Office 365

Excel data read from users and upload in to Oracle DB using custom webpart

Hi Team,
I need to get the excel date from user using file upload control and read the data from the excel using custom webpart and validate the each rows whether having the values or not and need to upload the data to the oracle database.
Can you please let me know the best approach to read the data from excel using sharepoint custom webpart.
Thanks,
Mylsamy

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to read excel data from the uploaded file and insert the data into Oracle Database.
The following way for your reference:
1.Create a Visual Web Part using Visual Studio.
2. Add an asp.net upload control into the .ascx file.
<div>
<asp:FileUpload ID="fileupload" runat="server" />
<asp:Button ID="btnUpload" runat="server" onclick="btnUpload_Click" Text="Upload" />
</div>
3. Add some logic methods into .ascx.cs file.
protected void btnUpload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
//read data and insert the data into Oracle database.
4.We can create a web service for adding data to Oracle database, then consume this web service in the visual web part.

Cannot print document with added barcode text boxes

G'day
I'm adding two text boxes to an illustrator document with Applescript, but when I go to print, ?I get an error 'Cannot print the illustration. The Color Management settings are inconsistent.'
The error message is not error trappable.
I have to barcode thousands of documents a year, and this is a big deal breaker. Is there any fix, please?

end try

G'day Owen, & W_J_T.
Unfortunately your suggestions did not work for me.
I've tried using the GUI to access the print dialog box, but as usual with Adobe, they've stuffed that up too. What I did find however, that the print dialog box recognised keystrokes, and always defaults to the Printer box when opening.
Also, the Printer box sets itself to a matching item of whatever key is pressed, and so does the Printer Preset box.
So, even tho I can't select any given box, provided I have a Printer Preset set, I can access it by the following (slower) method...
activate
tell application "System Events" to tell process "Adobe Illustrator"
keystroke "p" using command down
keystroke (character 1 of (my theLargePagePrinter as text)) as text
repeat 17 times
keystroke tab
tell current application to delay 0.1
end repeat
keystroke (character 1 of (my theLargePagePrinter as text)) as text
keystroke return
end tell
Note that if you have more than one printer or Printer Preset starting with the same letter, then you'll have to use more than just the first character of your printer name.

Using CreatedModifiedInfo in custom webpart SharePoint 2013

We've used those lines of code in SharePoint 2010 for a long time and we never had any issues with them. We've created a custom webpart and added the modifiedinfo toolbar to the bottom. Now we've moved our site from SP2010 to a SP2013 while still using SP2010
UI. So we're still in 2010 mode while this problem occurs.
internal static void AddToolBarInfo(this ToolBar toolBar, SPControlMode mode)
info = new CreatedModifiedInfo();
info.ControlMode = mode;
toolBar.Buttons.Controls.Add(info);
The control is added properly but no information are shown inside the toolbar. Somehow not many persons have used this toolbar, so I'm not able to find many informations about it. Since we've never done more than adding the control, I don't know where to
start looking when the control is not properly filled.

Has anyone used the CreatedModifiedInfo before in his code?

Read contents of Pages library and show in custom webpart

Hi,
How to read the contents of "Pages" library (Published pages and custom created pages only and not reading OOB pages)?
I have a publishing site, in which I need to read the "Title" and URL" of the pages which are created by users and show in a custom webpart. If a new page is published, that page data should be added to the webpart.
Is it possible to achieve this? I know of Content Query webpart, but I need to custom create a custom webpart with custom styling. Is it possible to use the logic of content query webpart in a custom visual webpart? How to achieve this programmatically?
Thanks

The process in 2013 is essentially the same as it was in 2010. The only difference is that you don't have to manually add additional fields to the datafields list in the .webpart file. But the .XSL customization is identical. That's why
you won't find many articles on how to do it in 2013. It was already covered in 2010 and hasn't changed. Here is one example from 2013.

When I start Firefox I get a menu box asking me to agree to let Firefox make changes to my computer. I click yes and the program opens and goes to my homepage. See Details below.

When I attempt to open Firefox from my desktop icon a menu box appears and backscreen grays out and I can't access anything else except this menu box. top of menu box says User Account Control. Next line says: Do you want to allow Firefox to make changes to this computer? I can click Yes (Firefox opens) No (menu box closes Firefox doesn't open) A link I can click says "change when these notifications appear" When I click it the menu box closes, Firefox doesn't open & link does not take me to where I can change my user account controls. Annoying, I just want Firefox to open directly to my home page like it did in prior versions.

Do a clean reinstall.
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
* Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

I'm having problems (1) selecting onscreen text, (2) resizing menu boxes and selecting menues with the cursor. I'm not able to select menus and move them. I'm not sure how to correct this.

1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
which will correct the problem...

2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
accurate.
3) This?
iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
point
4) Restore the iPod
5) Try these...
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
Up
iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
posted for each one.

I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

Access denied error on updating list through custom webpart

hi
I have created one webpart having multiple view option.
On selection of items from one view user is clicking on next button to get 2nd view (THis is causing postback) and on selection of 2nd view items user is clicking on next buton for 3rd view.
On third view he can see the submit button. On click on submit button the selected items are updateing in one list and also updating data in other lists.
The list in which we are updating data have limited access to all users. But previously user were able to upate the list.
But after implimenting this multiple view with next button which postbacks on click user are getting access denied error while updating the list. If i provide contribute access to that list then they able to submit the changes properly. But even after
that they got the error at first time.
Any body got this type of issue?
Is the post back on custom webpart cause access denied error?
i have written my code like this to updat list,
protected void btnUpdate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
try
SPSite site = new SPSite(SPContext.Current.Site.ID);
SPWeb myWeb = site.OpenWeb(SPContext.Current.Web.ID);
SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
using (SPSite ElevatedSite = new SPSite(site.ID))
using (SPWeb ElevatedWeb = ElevatedSite.OpenWeb(myWeb.ID))
ElevatedSite.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
ElevatedWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
//code to update multiple lists
catch (Exception ex)
Please suggest any solution for this.

Yes I checked with ULS log viewer.
Its very helpfull as reading that text log file is very difficuelt.
I found that if user spend more time on that webpart then session veriables on that webpart gets expired and at the time of redirection of user to newly created list using below code currentNewList becomes empty and its redirection to wrong list(_abc) which
is dummy list and user dont have any access.
currentNewList = NewListName+ "_abc"
SPUtility.Redirect(currentNewList.DefaultViewUrl, SPRedirectFlags.Default, HttpContext.Current);
So I modified the code to reload the session data when user clisk on submit button.
