Collaboration in Enterprise Wiki
The out-of-box wiki page that is created with every enterprise wiki site states the following:
Collaborate on wiki pages with other users
Comment on a wiki page to enable discussion about the contents of the page
Rate a wiki page to share your opinion about its content
Categorize wiki pages to enable users to quickly find information and share it with others
Does anyone know how one can enable this commenting feature for wiki pages? I am unable to find anything that talks about this.
Hi,
I have been searching this commenting as well.
Best that I could find is when you are on the page you want to comment:
From ribbon: Click Page --> Tags & Notes --> Note Board.
I don't see this as great way of commenting as no one can quickly see the comments. I would believe that the comments would be visible at the bottom of the wiki page.
Let see if the SP1 brings us something to this once it comes.

Problem with adding a second Categories field to my Enterprise Wiki Page template
I wanted to add a second category field beside the default wiki category. So I did the following steps:-
Inside my enterprise wiki site collection, I added a new Site Column, named “customer” with a managed metadata type.
Then I added the site column to the “Enterprise Wiki Page” content type.
After that using the SharePoint Designer , I added the new “Customer ” column to my EnterpriseWiki.aspx page layout.
The result was that I got a new category field , but I am facing these two problems:-
When selecting items for the new metadata column, the items are not clickable, unlike the default Wiki Category field, which allow users to click on the terms , as follow:-
The new category column was not displayed inside the Tree View , same as for the default Wiki category, as follow:-
So can anyone advice how I can solve these two problems ? ThanksThe Visio Web Part displays Visio diagrams that are located in SharePoint. Once you log out it won't have access to your desktop anymore. Instead you should upload the Visio document to a SharePoint library and then reference it from
there. It would be nice if it was integrated into a single process, but I suspect its not something MS thought enough people would do to spend the time writing the extra code to integrate it. So at least for now its a two step process.

so to add a visio diagram , we need to do the following:-
1. upload the visio to SP.
2. add a web part.
3. Browse for the Visio drawing.
by defualt there is no way to directly upload a new Visio diagram... -
Rendering Error when using more than one DataSheetView on a Enterprise Wiki-Page
Hi Experts,
how to reproduce:
Add two Custom Lists with some Fields (Add Lookup-Columns to both Lists).
Add a DataSheetView to each List and mark it as Default-View
Create a Enterprise Wiki-Page
Add a WebPart (Custom-List-1)
You will see the Content from List 1 as DataSheet-View (because it is the Default-View)
Add another WebPart below the previous added WebPart (Custom-List-2)
You will see the Content from List 2 as DataSheet-View (because it is the Default-View)
Notice that the First DataSheet has faulty Rendering. The Lookup-Columns having more than one 'Arror-Down' Image and it is even on the left. If you click into different Column, different row you get the same.
I can reproduce this behaviour anytime.
Environment: SharePoint 2013 Enterprise, IE10
If you use Development-Tools to identify first datarow of first DataSheet you can see that it has to do something with the related <Input>-Tags:
<div class="combobox-placeholder" id="jsgrid_combobox" style="left: 27px; top: 32px; width: 117px; height: 29px; border-top-color: currentColor; border-right-color: currentColor; border-bottom-color: currentColor; border-left-color:
currentColor; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-top-style: none; border-right-style: none; border-bottom-style: none; border-left-style: none; visibility: inherit; ; direction: ltr; min-width:
117px; background-color: transparent;">
<input class="cb-textbox " style="width: 156px; height: 25px;" dir="ltr" type="text"/><input tabindex="-1" title="Dropdown" class="combobox-img" style="height: 29px;"
dir="ltr" type="button" value="▼"/><input class="cb-textbox " style="width: 84px; height: 25px;" dir="ltr" type="text"/><input tabindex="-1" title="Dropdown"
class="combobox-img" style="height: 29px;" dir="ltr" type="button" value="▼"/>
Please have a look into it. Current Workaround for me is to have a Default-ListView in first WebPart. But then Customer has to click the Edit-Button to Change the Item in the releated EditForm. This is a Show-Stopper here!
With Best Regards,
RonnyHi Ronny,
According to your description, the lookup column would render incorrectly when adding more than one datasheet view in the Enterprise Wiki page.
I tested the same scenario per your post, and I got the same results as you got.
We will help to submit the issue to proper pipeline for you.
Again, thank you for your report which will definitely make SharePoint a better products. There might be some time delay.
Appreciate your time and patience.
Best regards.
Thanks

We are working on an enterprise wiki site collection, and users start adding wiki pages and link them together. But a new requirement was raised by the customer, to allow users to be able to convert any wiki page to pdf file and save the pdf file to their
local PCs. They are suggesting to add a link or an option inside the upper ribbon , named “Make as PDF”, and once clicked they can view the current wiki as a pdf file.
Not sure what are the capabilities of SharePoint 2013 to do so ? and is there any third paryt tools that allow doing similar tasks ?
ThanksIf you want to save as PDF, could you not use a PDF printer, so the procedure would be to 'Print this page' and the user then selects their PDF printer and where they want to save the file.
but in this way the user will have the page header footer, left navigation included in the pdf file. while i want to extract the body only. i so not think you apprach will work for my requirements -
How do i edit the links in the top nav bar on an enterprise wiki site?
I would like to edit and change the links in the top nav bar on my enterprise wiki.
Currently the links are "About this wiki" and "Recent" a drop down menu with links.
I would like to change "About this wiki" to a "Home" page link and remove the "Recent" drop down menu and links. I also would like to be able to add more links to the to the top nav bar.
I there anyway I can do this one an enterprise wiki site?
Thanks
James T.FHi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to edit the links in the top navigation bar on an enterprise wiki site.
I try to reproduce the issue, however, my enterprise wiki site don’t have the drop down menu.
How did you add the Recent link?
How did you create the drop down menu?
Did you use the seattle master page or olso master page?
It will be better if you can descript more detail and provide some screenshots.
You can use JavaScript to add and remove the items in the drop down menu.
More information:

Is there a way to add multiple categories columns to my enterprise wiki page
Hi All,
I have the following inside my SharePoint 2013;
Enterprise wiki site collection.
By default I got one category column for my enterprise wiki site.
I link the defualt wiki category (of type managed metadata) to a term store.
I am trying to achieve the following:-
I need to add additional wiki categories (of type managed metadata) and link them to different term store.
For example when a user add a new wiki page , he can select the default wiki , in addition to that he can
a customer , sub-topic, country , etc.
What I tried is :-
I went to the wiki library and from there I added a new site column of type managed meta data.
I link the new column to a second term store, and I did the same for the other wiki categories.
The problem I am facing:-
The new wiki categories were not displayed when adding /editing/viewing the wiki pages?
Can anyone advice how I can add the new wiki categories , so that users can fill them when add/editing a wiki page , also how to show them under the defualt wiki category when reading any wiki page?
ThanksNumber of Chapters in iMovie is not known by me but if You aim to do a DVD then there is a problem.
iDVD has some limitations
• 99 Chapters maximum !
• 60 resp 120 minutes limit (Movie + Menu duration) on SL-DVD and about double on DL-DVDs
I would divide material onto two DVDs then I get 198 Chapters and 120 to 240 minutes on SL-DVDs
Note thar MENU can take up lot's of time - 15 minutes o even more.
I use Old Theme and "Brushed Metal" no Animation and No Audio on Menu - to keep this under one minute.

I have SharePoint 2013 web application, which has enterprise wiki site collection for our finance department. Now I need to create a new site for our HR department.
The two sites will differ in the following:-
Each department have different permission. For example each department have different users for who can approve, edit/create.
Each department will use different EnterpriseWiki page layout. As each department will have different wiki category columns (different site columns).
Also each department will use different metadata navigation.
The two sites will have the following in common:-
The same master page. Seatle.html.
So I can not determine which approach I should follow:-
To create a new enterprise wiki site collection for our HR department.
Create a new enterprise wiki library inside the current site collection representing the HR enterprise wiki.
To create a new subsite ?
Can anyone advice on these please? ThanksGiven that each will have different permissions I would go with a separate site collection. That will provide the best security basis. You could do it with a sub site, but it will be easier to maintain the security as a separate site
collection.

Yes i know that having different permission & different page layouts will push toward creating separate site collections. but i found a major linking problem when using different site collections (i mean adding links which reference other site collections
pages), let take the following example:-
1. I have Site collection A & site collection B.
2. now inside SCA i create a new wiki page named "Test.aspx" page.
3. then inside SCA i add a link to this wiki page from another wiki page.
4. also inside SCB i also add a link to the Test.aspx page.
After that let say i modify the Test.asxp page name & title to be "NewTest.aspx" , which will affect the page URL which will be
http:.../NewTest.aspx/ instead of
http.../Test.aspx/. now inside SCA all the links to the old Test.aspx page will automatically updated to reference the NewTest.aspx so that the links will not break. but inside SCB pages, the links will not be modified and will keep referencing Test.asxp
which no more exists ... so can you advice please if there is a way to overcome this problem , and if i create sub-site representing Site collection B will this solve the problem ? -
Can't get views to work on webparts on an enterprise wiki
Hi I'm trying to make an Enterprise Wiki that contains 3 types of content types company, project, contact. On the home Page I added 3 webparts (from pages) corresponding to the 3 content types above. I then made a page layout for each content type. I created
the needed views I needed and Filtered them by the content type is equal to "blah". When I make test pages in the "Pages" library (automatically made with an enterprise wiki) they show up in the webparts I created on the home page filtered
in the right webpart. If i create a folder within the "Pages" library I can't see any test pages that i make inside the folder. Is there any way I can get views to pull the pages i create in the folders?
Thanks
James T.FHi James,
According to your description, my understanding is that the pages inside the folders cannot be displayed in the filtered view of the Pages library.
How did you create the view in Pages library?
I recommend to modify the view and check if the Show all items without folders is selected in Folders. If not, please check it and then the pages inside the folders will be displayed in the filtered view.
Best regards.
Thanks

Enterprise Wiki copy bug in "Pages" edit mode
All functions cease working when I am in the "Pages" edit mode.
My Steps:
1. In Enterprise Wiki (SharePoint 2013) I click on "edit this page"
2. Click on View Properties
3. While in the View mode click on Edit
4. Click in the Contact field to copy contact and the icon next to the name becomes attached to the cursor and a big black circle with the forward slash mark in it appears.
5. No matter what I do the small green box has attached itself to my cursor like a throwback '90s mouse sprite. It follows the cursor everywhere on the screen.Can you recreate the page and copy the content to new page and see if its working.. I can't think of anything else for now..

Creating Web Parts for an Enterprise Wiki...
Hi All,
I am trying to set up a knowledge base using an Enterprise Wiki site in SharePoint Online (apologies if this is the wrong forum) and I would like to be able to control the layout of the certain entries. I think I need some web parts, but I am
open to alternatives. What I am hoping to achieve is this:
Header Web Part - When a new page is created it would include a Web Part that includes a Title and some basic text fields as well as an editable list that would include a URL and a brief description of the URL so some thing like this:
Title goes here
Lable1: Text
Lable2: More text
Useful Sites:
URL1 - This is the vendor support page
URL2 - Here is some more useful info
Repeatable/Reusable Web part - This web part would contain it's own layout, more text fields and also the ability to add attachments but most importantly when users edit the page they would be able to add another one of these web parts.
Essentially any give Wiki page would be made up of one header web part and one or more instance of the other web part that gives the pages the same structure.
Are web parts the correct thing to be using and if so how do I go about creating and implementing this?
Any suggestions greatly appreciated
AndrewHi,
Thanks for the reply. I think it is a little over my head, I'm just starting out and I know I am trying to run before I crawl. Will definitely give this a try when I've got my head round it.

APP of type Wiki library VS Enterprise wiki subsite
What are the functional differences between adding new Subsite of type "Publishing >> Enterprise Wiki" , and just adding a new Wiki Library App to any site ? and when to use each ?.
i know that the subsite will create a new site and not just a new library as in the APP case, but i am asking about the difference in functionalities and features between them ?
ThanksHi John,
here is a discussion on the difference, hope it helps you-
http://bernado-nguyen-hoan.com/2013/05/10/differences-between-enterprise-wiki-and-wiki-page-library-in-sharepoint-2013/
Also it depends on how large your wiki is, if it is very large wiki like Knowledge manaagement site for your organization then you should enterprise wiki or else you use team site as wiki with wiki APP
See the wiki consideration section on the below URL-

Page URL and Page Name in Enterprise Wiki
Hello,
I have a problem with the page URL and page name in our Enterprise Wiki. Parent and subsite locales are Turkish. My problem is, when I add a page in Enterprise Wiki and give it an English URL, the page Header is written in English and when I give a Turkish
URL, the page header is written in Turkish. What I want to have (and I think the right way) is to have the URL in English and the page header in Turkish.
To clarify my question, I will create a page with a Turkish name and URL. I will name it "Türkçe Tanıtım" (which stands for Turkish Demonstration), using Turkish characters. Then the URL becomes:
http://mysite.com/Pages/T%C3%BCrk%C3%A7e%20Tan%C4%B1t%C4%B1m.aspx
And the page header is "Türkçe Tanıtım", which is normal, as expected:
If I change the page URL to look correctly, using English characters only, it looks like "TurkceTanitim." The URL becomes "tidy" (http://mysite.com/Pages/TurkceTanitim.aspx) but the page header also becomes "TurkceTanitim",
which is not correct in Turkish:
What I would like to have, and what I think it should, is to have a URL completely in English (http://mysite.com/Pages/TurkceTanitim.aspx) but have the page header in Turkish (Türkçe Tanıtım). I am sure this could be done in SharePoint, I/we are missing
something but I don't know what.
Can you give me a hand on this?
Thanks in advance,
TolgaHi Tolga,
I understand you would like to change Wiki page title but not page name in url.
The title of the Wiki pages is always linked to the actual file name of that certain page. To get the use out of title property we have to manipulate the page template for the Wiki pages.
Please refer to the article below and edit "/_catalogs/masterpage/EnterpriseWiki.aspx" in SharePoint Designer:

Use a Custom Page Layout When Creating [[new pages]] in Enterprise Wiki
I have followed a few different blogs and I've been able to create a custom wiki content type and create a new page layout based off of that content type. I've also set my site so that my new layout is the default page layout. This works when creating
new pages on the site but when i try to create a new wiki page --> [[new page]], I'm still getting the typical blank wiki template. How on earth do i get my page layout to sync with creating a new wiki page?Hi,
For your issue, go to Site Actions > Site Settings > Page layouts and site templates (Under Look and Feel).
Pages in this site can only use the following layouts: add custom wiki template.
Select default page layout: choose custom wiki template.
Besides, here is a blog, you can use as a reference:

Collaborative Websites: Best Practice?
Good morning! Afternoon? I'm starting to delve into more advanced topics in SharePoint and am aiming to make a collaborative website between various groups.
I'm rather confused about the concept of site collections, wiki, etc.
What I was hoping to create is a site with basic information: news, contacts, etc. But one tab on the navigation bar would lead to to a WIKI, and another to a personalizeable site. So I suppose I have two separate questions:
1) Does the WIKI have to stand as its own site collection, under the same web application?
2) Same question for the personalizeable site. Additionally, are there any resources you would recommend? I'm having a hard time finding things in 'beginner's' terms.
Many thanks, my friends.
Edit: To clarify on the personalizeable site, each person allowed editing rights on SharePoint site can have their own page (similar to Facebook profile) that they can add whatever their heart desires.Hi Catherine,
Firstly you need only one site collection to get your portal provisioned. However the sizing and no site collections are decided based on users, and volume of data growth.
I would suggest you to create a team site collection, which is a collaboration template and you can explore possiblities of hosting blogs, with community sites.
For Wiki, you can choose Wiki site template and can be a site under team site collection. Alternatively you could also Team site as wiki site by using wiki library.
For personalizeable site, best option would My site, which is equivalent to Facebook, and offers more capabilities on the Enterprise social front.
My Site Host itself is a site collection, so this would go into separate site collection. My Site has dependency on User profiles and other services, you may need to plan accordingly.
here are links for reference -

Oracle Beehive collaboration software to be rolled into WebCenter
Hi all.
I have just read this note:
http://searchoracle.techtarget.com/news/2240022942/Oracle-Beehive-collaboration-software-to-be-rolled-into-WebCenter
Can anyone give comment?
What is the near future Beehive?
Thanks in advance.I can't comment on the accuracy of the article...
Essentially, there was some re-packaging to allow more flexible purchasing, and some re-branding to mark the ongoing deeper integration work of Beehive and WebCenter so that customers owning both get a more tightly-integrated and seamless experience.
For example, the conferencing part of Beehive can now be bought 'stand alone' and is known as [Oracle WebCenter Real-time Collaboration|http://www.oracle.com/us/products/middleware/user-interaction/real-time-collaboration/index.html] .
Similarly, the Intelligent Collaboration features of Beehive can now be bought standalone, known as [Oracle WebCenter Intelligent Collaboration|http://www.oracle.com/us/products/middleware/user-interaction/intelligent-collaboration/index.html] .
The email, calendar,contacts etc. part of Beehive is known as "Beehive Enterprise Messaging". And of course you can still buy licences of the Messaging+RTC+Team Collaboration (with documents, wikis, discussions etc. - the same packaging as previously available), now known as "Beehive Enterprise Collaboration".
So really it's about providing more flexibility to customers that want to buy and use parts of Beehive rather than all of it, while also improving the WebCenter integration experience, without sacrificing the completeness of customers that value the entire Beehive offering.
hope that helps,
richard
