Calendar for a publishing site

I have a publishing site and would like to incorporate a calendar but when you go to create one, you have no option creating a calendar. Any idea how I could get this to happen?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
This is because by default the “Office SharePoint Server Standard Site Collection features” and “Office SharePoint Server Standard Site features” are not enabled in publishing sites, which prevents a lot of the typical SharePoint functionality from being available in publishing sites.
Please try to enable those features in your publishing site, you will see the calendar list in created page and allows you to use them in sites where you are also using MOSS's content management functionality.
Hope it helps.

Create a custom alert message for my publishing site

I have enabled outgoing email to enable sending alerts from SharePoint to users. But I want to have a simpler alert email. Where I do not need to include the item content within the email . so I am trying to achieve the following:-
Remove the item content from the alert email and just include a link to the item such as a link to a wiki page, announcement item ,etc.
Currently the link will include the servername in it such as
http://servernameSP01/sharepoint/Page1 . But we have defined a DNS name so that out SharePoint is accessible using a more user friendly such as
http://ourcompany.intra. So is there a way to include this instead of the server name in the email links?
Thanks

Hi,
For the first question, my understanding is that you want to add a link to the email alert. As there is no OOTB feature to achieve it, I suggest you custom
the alert template to achieve it.
The email alert template is in the folder below.
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\XML
Before editing the xml, remember to copy the xml file to another location. You can edit the format tag of the xml and add your custom link to the format
tag.
Save the xml and update the list alert template to the new one.
Here is a similar thread for your reference:

For the second question, my understanding is you want to replace the server name link with a DNS link. It could be achieved using alternate access mappings.

Setting Custom Master page in search results page - Publishing site

Hi,
I have a publishing site, in which i have a custom Master page.
However when doing the search in the site, the search results does not show the custom Master page.
Is it possible to set the custom created Master page for the search results page? How to achieve this?
Thanks

Hi Venkat,
The search page for a publishing site is a file available in the layouts folder (I believe it is the osssearchresults.aspx if you see the address bar). It is used by all web applications and site collections in your farm. So ideally you should not change
it. I mean you can change it to point to your master page but it is bad practice ..
I would instead do the following
1. Create a custom search results web part page and place it in the site collection itself (one of the document libraries)
2. Custom search results is not difficult because all search results pages are made of a set of Out of the box search results web parts. If you add the same webparts to your page as the default search results page, you have effectively created a copy of
it
3. go to site settings --> search settings and change the search results page to your newly created page
4. The newly created page by virtue of its location will automatically use the master page the rest of the site uses.
I could not spend the time to try the above for you but I am sure the above will work.
Thanks and Regards,

Publishing Site, what happens to temporary site and forms created with Muse?

Hello,
I want to publish my site, however I am wondering if the temporary .businesscatalyst.com site goes down immediately after I do this? Also, I created the forms with Muse and apparently they are connected to the URL, so will they no longer work? Or do I have to republish them? Also, do I have to pay for the published site if I am creativecloud member? Thanks any insight!

Hi,
The system url will still remain when pushing live and adding your own domain. The site will naturally reflect your added domain once added however you can always access the site uisng the system URLs.
The form will naturally reflect your added custom domain and will still work under the system URL.
Yes, you get up to 5 free webBasic sites under your cloud subscription. More details can be found in the FAQ page.

Publishing site - Add a list to Site pages - Ribbon items disabled

Hi,
I created a publishing site in SharePoint 2013.
I created a custom list and added few data to it.
In the Home page of the site, I clicked on "Add Page". Once the page is created, I clicked on "Insert" - select "webpart" - choose the custom list. I published the page.
The list was added. However on selecting any of the item in the list, the items inside the ribbon having "Items" and "List" seems to be disabled.
I have not changed any master page. I have owner permission in the site.
How to make the ribbon items visible when an item is selected? This is only happening for a publishing site template and not on a Team site?
Has anybody encountered this? How to fix this?
Thanks

To my Knowledge there doesn't exist ribbon with "Item" and "List" categories in publishing page of publishing site template
I believe you have not checkedin the page and
Published the page. Kindly publish the page and check if you are still able to find the ribbon with those categories disabled. I just tried and dint find it.Let me know if still the problem exists.

Calendar view on page for Published site.

I have a subsite, and I create a calendar for meetings, on a new page I added a web part to show the calendar (calendar view). when I logged on the site, each event has their one link to details, (disform.aspx?id= something) but as soon I publish the
page, and go and use the browser as anonymous (not logged), I can see the calendar but I don't have links to see the details of the event.
I know this work because on the same site I have another subsite with another calendar and it is working just fine, i tried and I know I did it in another site, I just don't have links in this one.
the collapse or add links show up and work fine, it is just the link to the events detail. Someone can help me?

I did a test in my environment with anonymous access in the publish site and the event is in the calendar.
For a better troubleshooting, I suggest you do as followings:
1. Check the anonymous access in the site settings-> site permission->Anonymous Access->Entire Web Access.
2. Check if you have deactived the feature “limited-access user permission lock down mode” feature in site collection feature.
3. If the issue still exists, I suggest you recreate a calendar to test whether it works.

How to rate and give review for the product in SharePoint Contoso demo site by the customer/user from publishing site?

Hi,
I am new to SharePoint, and am working on Contoso demo site.
I want to know where to give star rating and review for the product in SharePoint Contoso demo site. Even after spending enough hours i didn't find solution for this problem. All the answers i got was changing the List/Library settings -> Rating settings,
if i follow that, i get the rating column displayed in my catalog site. How can i bring it on my publishing site and let the customers give rating or review for the product from publishing site. Is there any OOTB feature in sharepoint or it shoul be customized.
Thanks in advance.
Akshaya

Are you using the Content Search Web Part? Just tweaking that once the source library has had the rating column applied should work. Have you tried this?

Creating Master page for publishing site

Hi,
I am trying to create a master page for publishing site. I have downloaded the "StarterBranding - V1.3" from codeplex, and used the "Starter Publishing". Currently it is not showing logo, search box, top navigation, breadcrumbs.
I have an existing master page which has lot of tags, and I am not sure what they represent. The below code is after the script manager tag in the body section:

Are the above tags required in Master page? what is the use of it? I have more tags and will add after knowing the use of it in future threads.
Thanks

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to know about the each tags useful in master page.
In SharePoint 2013 master page, there are some common tags like body tag, head tag and meta tag and some style CSS div tags. For the useful of these tags, I suggest you can refer the articles below:
Understanding HTML master pages in SharePoint 2013
In your custom master page, it will have some custom css tags depend on the display style but it is no required for master pages, if you want to know about what tags is required in master page, you can compare the custom master page with the OOTB master
page.

What is the best way to publish my calendar for free?

I want to know if there's an easy way to publish my calendar for free. We have a server at our work, that everybody has access to. Is there an easy way to publish it on that hard drive. Also how is the best way for Microsoft Outlook users to share there calendar for free to iCal users like me?
Thanks in advance

If the Mac came with Mountain Lion or Lion, press Command, Option and R keys on boot, open Disk Utility, erase the disk and reinstall Lion or Mountain Lion. If it came with Snow Leopard or older, insert the DVD, press C key on boot, go to Utilities > Disk Utility, erase the drive and reinstall Snow Leopard

Publish Calendar to My Own Site (with ftp)

Is there a way to publish an iCal calendar to my own site (with ftp login)?
Thanks in advance
<big>Daniel Gilmour</big>

OK, I just tried using the publish option to my own server and used my ftp login. Everything seemed to work fine, except, when I go to my site where the iCal calendar is located, it just downloads to be put in iCal. Once in iCal, a message saying "this calendar is corrupt" comes up.

Publish calendar for Shared Mailbox

Hi,
I have shared mailbox that I really need to have the calendar to be publish online (the ics link). I tried using the website and outlook 2013 client. Both of them saying that the "storeID provided isn't an ID of an item." Is there a way to be able
to publish the calendar?

Hi,
We can enable Internet Calendar Publishing
in exchange, then users can share calendar availability (free/busy) information with users in non-Exchange organizations and other individuals with Internet access.
Refer to this document.

Set-Mailbox -Identity <shared mailbox> -SharingPolicy "new policy"

Grid Control Architecture for Very Large Sites: New Article published

A new article on Grid Control was published recently:
Grid Control Architecture for Very Large Sites
http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/havewala-gridcontrol.html

Oliver,
Thanks for the comments. The article is based on practical experience. If one was to recommend a pool of 2 management servers for a large corporate with 1000 servers, what that would mean is that if 1 server was brought down for any maintenance reason (for eg. applying an EM patch), all the EM work load would be on the remaining management server. So it is better to have 3 management servers instead of 2 when the EM system is servicing so many targets. Otherwise, the DBAs would be a tad angry since only 1 remaining managment server would not be able to service them properly during the time of the maintainance fix on the first management server.
The article ends with these words: "You can easily manage hundreds or even *thousands* of targets with such an architecture. The large corporate which had deployed this project scaled easily up to managing 600 to 700 targets with a pool of just three management servers, and the future plan is to manage *2,000 or more* targets which is quite achievable." The 2000 or more is based on the same architecture of 3 managment servers.
So as per the best practice document, 2 management servers would be fine for 1000 servers, although I would still advise 3 servers in practice.
For your case of 200 servers, it depends on the level of monitoring you are planning to do, and the type of database managment activities that
will be done by the DBAs. For eg, if the Dbas are planning on creating standby databases now and then through Grid Control, running backups daily
via Grid Control, cloning databases in Grid Control, patching databases in Grid Control and so on, I would definitely advise a pool of 2 servers
in your case. 2 is always better than 1.
Regards,
Porus.

Publishing site discrepancies for 'site assets'

I have noticed discrepancies for publishing sites when creating sub sites. The issue I have noticed is that randomly some of the sub sites have a 'site assets' library and others don't. The sites work correctly, as I don't require the site assets library
in the sub sites anyway.
They all have the 'SharePoint Server Publishing' feature activated. So I don't see what the difference is between the sub sites. This has happened on multiple site collections now so seems to be a common bug with SharePoint.
Although it is not causing me a problem in at present it is still a question I'd like an answer to in case we do need to use the site assets library for each of the sub sites in the future.

For the next test I activated the Wiki Page Home Page feature. It creates two new libraries: 'site pages', which contains two pages (Home and How to use this library); and 'site assets', which is empty.
I had a look at my existing publishing websites and it appears they all have 'sites pages' and 'site assets' in the root site. Both libraries are empty. In the sub sites some have an empty 'site assets', some don't have a 'site assets'. None have a 'site
pages' library. So I don't think this relates to the Wiki Page Home Page feature. I think it is some other anomaly, as I have never activated the Wiki Page Home Page feature in any site before.

Google Analytics for iweb 09 site published to MobileMe

At one point I was able to add Google Analytics to my iweb site that's on Mobile Me. That lasted 2 days, till I republished it. I redid it twice, I thought the same way. The last time was yesterday after changing to new iweb 09 software. I published site to local disk (idisk), then went to Automator and added the Google Analytics code (UA-xxxxxxx-x) again and unchecked "Old Style Analytics Code". I saved as a new "Google Analytics plugin". Then I selected website folder on idisk through Finder. Then control-clicked (to run Google Analytics workflow) and chose the "Google Analytics plugin" from menu. After this, I went back to my site in iweb and clicked on "Publish". I assumed that it published the site in idisk, where I had added Google Analytics. But it's been over 24 hours and no results in Google Analytics.
Through Safari, I went to home page of site, then clicked View, then page source and I don't see the Google Analytics code (UA-xxxxxxx-x) shown so it didn't seem to work. I just don't know where I made a mistake. I don't think its because I changed to iweb 09 because I re-did it the same way in iweb 08 (but did not uncheck the "Old Style Analytics Code") and it didn't work then either. Can't figure out how I got it to work for two days when I first tried it.
Please help. Anyone?

It is now easier than ever. You don't need an outside application, or an automator action at all. I used to use Transmit to upload my site, since I first had to export it to a folder, then run the automator action. I again spent some time looking for how to do it for iWeb 09 and found the easiest (and therefore overlooked) way:
1. in iWeb, create an HTML snippet
2. Copy the Google Analytics code and paste into the snippet.
3. Make the box as small as it can go (although this does not really matter since nothing will display on your site)
4. Copy this snippet and go on each page on your site and paste it.
5. Publish your site.
6. It will take a little bit of time for it to show up on the Google Analyics page, so set it up, then walk aawy for a little bit.
This worked for me right away, and I no longer have to export to a folder and use an action of any kind.
