Cannot hide 'Choose your settings' field from User Profile Edit Page

When ever I change the 'Choose your settings' property to not be displayed on users' edit profile page, all of the users' My Site edit profile pages display an error, 'Sorry, something went wrong'. The log file shows the following entries.

I've encountered this on 3 different SharePoint 2013 farms, and it also works correctly on another. I can't figure out why or what the differences are.
We want to be able to hide the vast majority or fields from the user edit profile page and only show a handful of them, e.g. Name, Department, Job Title, Office and Mobile.
Anyone else seen this or have a solution?
Matt

I was successfully able to hide it on an SP1 farm. Have you tried SP1 yet?

Use Department field from user profile

Hi,
When user uploads a document - "Created By" takes its name automatically.
We need the data of the department of the user also.
I see that i can change the column to display any field from user profile in the "Created By" (user name / email/ department...).
What should i do in order to use more than one field? (it's like set 2 "created by" columns to each doc - one to get the user name and one for department).
It is for use department values in search.
keren tsur

Hi keren,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to get user name and department for the user who created the document.
I recommend to get the department using the default Created By column and use workflow to get the user name from Created By column in a new column.
Create a workflow associated with the library and set the workflow to start when an item is created.
Best regards.
Thanks

Propagate Data from User Profile to Resource Process Form doesn't work

Hi,
i've created a new custom task for Propagate Data from User Profile to Resource Process Form with a gtc connector but the task is never triggered!!!
i need clues to resolve this .
thnks.!!
oim 11g 11.1.1.5 bp4. high availability with 2 nodes and a balancer.

Hi Rajiv:
->Did you make that entry in Lookup as mentioned in that thread/post ?
ANSW: yes.
->Did you use exact naming convention for your tasks ?
ANSW: yes i put the same name that i put in the lookup into my process from.
In which process definition have you created your task. Make sure it should be other than "Xellerate User" process definition.
ANSW: PROCESS DEFINITION: * iPlanet User

Create one approval workflow and create one Process Determination Rule like
If
Request Action == "Revoke"
Attach this rule with RO.
Hey sorry
I shared the information for Revoking user from target Application.
Hide Delete User button from JSP
You can create Dummy Resource with Approval workflow for Deleting User. And after getting approval you can use DeleteUser API to delete user from OIM.

AppLocker Policy to stop executable running from User Profile

I am in process of implementing Applocker in our Environment.
To protect the clients from Malware attacks I want to configure a policy through which all the executable files can not run from User Profile. However I may have few executable files which must run as exception to this rule from the user profile.
Please help.

What exactly is your question?
You can set up applocker to prevent all exes from running and then list your exemptions.
You will also have to set up about 7 other exemptions for the users to actually be able to login.
Also note that Applocker only works with Windows 7 Enterprise and Ultimate. Not professional.

Win7 and Reader X - default settings for ALL users/profiles

I have a custom browser/app that opens PDF's within the app which can sometimes cause issues. I found that if I set Reader X to not open in the browser (Edit>Preferences>Internet - uncheck "Display PDF in Browser") that this does resolve most issues. My problem...when changed this only affects the current user/profile that's logged in. Potentially there can be dozens of users on these laptops. The other setting is when opening a PDF, I get the warning about Protected Mode not being able to be used due to the current configuration. I can select "Always open with Protected Mode disabled" and I no longer get the message; but again, current user/profile only.
Is there a way to set these settings for ALL users/profiles? Running Win7 (32bit) with Reader X.

I do not know why you experience this; what exactly happens when a non-admin users attempts to highlight something?
You are talking about highlighting in the same document?

Any way to return to the calling page from the User Profile Editor page?

I built a url to the User Profile Editor page, and upon playing around with some of the parameters in the url itself, I have the Editor page returning to My Page (home page) for the logged in user. I would like to get it to return to the calling page, which is not necessarily a My Page. It might be a Community page. I'm not quite sure what the Editor Type value is and if it is even relevant. (it is hard-coded right now, and I've tried changing it to several values). Here is the url string:
http://awg1/portal/server.pt?open=space&name=UserProfileEditor&psname=OpenerPageID=253&cached=false&in_hi_userid=257&control=EditorStart&editorType=10. It would be really nice to be able to open the editor with a tag!

You can use a table
This was answered in the Numbers forum by someone else so cant take any credit.
Put "1" in first cell
put 2 in cell below
Select both cells and hover mouse over botton right hand corner ( you should get a cross) click and drag down and sequential numbers will fill into the blank cells - and over the page if you wish.
Is that what you are after?
Or you can always use a numbered list but that would be by paragraph not line.

Custom field in Account Partners Edit page

Need to display a new custom field in Account Partners Edit page. We are not able to find the object definition of "Account Partners" which we can edit. Is option of adding a custom field in Account Partners Edit available in CRMOD? Will enabling "Partner Relationship Management" help in this regard?

At this time it is not possible to add a custom field in the Account Partners Edit. I would recommend submitting a enhancement request to CRM On Demand customer care.

Proxy settings moved from User to Machine not removing user settings.

Hi All,
I have recently moved our company's proxy settings from User based to Machine based as we were having issues after moving from an internal proxy to a hosted external proxy. What we found was after turning off the internal some users were no longer
getting external internet.
After some investigation we found they were still getting old proxy settings on login and after a GPupdate.exe or normal gpupdate from the server the correct settings would apply. (happened to users logging on for the 1st time) To prevent this from happening
I moved the proxy settings to the Computer GPO and it all appeared to work in the test GPO and in live. But a few days later we got some calls logged to our help desk stating they don't get external internet. After some more
investigation we found that they are still getting the user policy applied to them even though it has all been removed from the User GPO.
I found if I remove the proxy settings it doesn't always apply to users but if I add info in it always updates to the user. What can be causing this? Some of these users have local admin rights and I thought at first it might be something they
did but now we are getting non admin users with these issues.
We are using IE 10 and have set the original Proxy settings using the GUI internet control panel and are now applying the proxy settings via Registry updates in the Computer GPO and enabled "Make Proxy settings per-machine" object. Our SOE
is Win 7 ent x64 with IE 10 (1500 units) and Win 8.1 ent x64 IE11 (100 units) And some XP SP3 that are in the process of migrating to Win7.
Any help on this would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Nat

Hi Nat,
you wrote: I found if I remove the proxy settings it doesn't always apply to users but if I add info in it always updates to the user.
Does that also happen für new users now after you changed your settings to the computer settings?
I guess you used group policy preferences; that worked as "one time settings", so as long as the policy exists it will be merged with the Settings on the users computer. Please find a detailed description on
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn581922.aspx
So you now have 2 configuration items: your policy as well as the users registry. So to remove that you already moved the Settings from the user configuration to your Computers configuration (that worked as you described) while the Settings
in their HKCU are still there - you Need to either implement another policy to remove that, or you can set it empty.
Don't set it to "not configured" as that will keep your old setting deployed before.
Sometimes I found in more easy to implement another user preference that removed the Registry key with the Registry keys to remove a Setting instead of Publishing a "remove Setting" configuration.

Martin

Auto-filling proceeding fields from user's initial input - Possible? How?

Hi there,
I'm quite new to LiveCycle (and scripting). That being said, I'm trying to create some automation in forms for work.
I've been asked to create a product order form in which the Order Administrator would choose the product from a list of Product Codes. Once s/he chooses the Product Code [numeric field] from this list, the Product Description [text field] appears right next to it, and then the Product Price [numeric field] would populate the last field. I will duplicate this over multiple rows into a table, then autosum the last column which should be filled with various product prices, taxes, S&H, etc. (autosumming the Price field is easy enough - this is not my issue so let's just focus on the major concern of auto-filling descriptions and prices for now...)
For e.g.
Product Code
Description
Price
6759-85746-098 [Order Admin chooses from list]
Large textbook (x1) [Automatically inputs based on Product Code]
$30.00 [Auto-inputs from Product Code]
5864-98723-124
Black pens (x10/set)
$5.25
I've tried for days to figure out how to script this, going through numerous forums, printing off reams of Adobe help documents, trying to learn Java and/or FormCalc in solitude, and yet I still can't figure this out. To explain, I'm not a coder/developer but a print-focused graphic designer.
If anyone knows how I can solve this I'd be very grateful. I'm now wondering if a) I need to somehow connect (bind?) the information in an external database or sheet (Excel?), b) figure out some elaborate script that would automate these descriptions and prices, and/or c) bang my head against the wall in fruitless frustration.
Thanks for any help anyone can offer.

A simple example. May not meet your needs depending on the number of products.
Droplist named ProductCode
Text Fields named Description and Price
Java Script the droplist on the change event
if (xfa.event.newText=="5864-98723-124")
{Description.rawValue="Black Pens"
Price.rawValue="$5.25"

Cannot Drag and Drop a Field from Connection manager to a worksheet.

Hi
I've recently installed the latest version of SQLDEVELOPER (1.5.3) onto winxp.
I used to be able (previous version) to drag fields from the connection manager and drop onto a worksheet to save typing the field name when writing sql.
This new version currently does not allow me to do this (it lets me drag, but not drop).
I am able to drag a table object - and when I drop onto worksheet it creates a select statement with all fields.
Is this by design, or is there a setting in preferences that I'm missing, or could there be something wrong with my installation ?
Another not so good feature on this new version:
When you Right-Click a package object on the connection manager and select "Run" : a window appears with automatically generated plsql block to run the package - great. However I used to be able to copy this plsql and paste it into anything I wanted (e.g. note-pad, or another application etc), but now I am unable to use the generated code unless I use the "Save File.." button. (Copy/paste etc is not available from either "right click", Edit menu or CTRL C).
Again is this by design (I certainly used to be able to do it) or is it a problem specific to my installation.
Any pointers much appreciated.
jacr

Jacr,
We introduced the choice of drag and drop options in 1.5.0. Under preferences Database -> Worksheet Parameters, you can switch between the dragging on join clauses or individual statements including insert, update or delete. With this change and with the increase in code insight, we removed the ability to drag individual columns onto the worksheet. Have you tried the code insight feature in 1.5.3?
I am able to use the copy and paste from the anonymous block to the worksheet works in 1.5.3. Are your copy and paste keys working else where? Perhaps resetting these keys to default in the preferences might help.

Removing fields from Discoverer Viewer Login Page 10g

Hi,
I am new to discoverer 10g. I wanted to know if its possible to remove the non mandatory fields from the Disco viewer home page like Locale, End user layer and Connect To since they can be configured to take default values.
Once a user logs in, he views a set of workbooks. Can this page be replace with a customized report?
Thanks
Sujatha

Are you on a 11.5.10 environment? If so please make sure your DBC-file is generated correctly. Since 11.5.10 Discoverer will be started using SSL mode.

Аdding department export data from a survey list from user profile services in Sharepoint 2013.

When voting, survey Sharepoint 2013, there is a field created by whom. But the name is not enough. Necessary to add the department name of the profile data in the exported list excel.

Hi,
The OOTB feature “Export to Spreadsheet” won’t contain the department in the exported report, we will need to create a custom one programmatically.
We can use SharePoint Object Model to retrieve the data from the Survey and the User Profile Service, then generate an Excel Spreadsheet with the data we need.

Removing fields from function profiles

Hi
Some one please help me in removing fields from a function profile. PFA for your reference
Regards,
Prem

Hello Prem,
Can you check the HTML-coding of the view? What is the name of the view? I could also check it in my system, even as we are not using this specific view. My other thought was, that it is a button, then you could remove it from the internal table GT_BUTTON of the IMPL-class of the view, but after rethinking I think it might be in the HTML-coding.
Best regards,
Thomas Wagner
