Retrieve custom property for a user

Within a custom portlet, how would I obtain custom properites of the current user viewing the portlet? For example, if a user had property "Favorite Food" populated and I wanted my portlet to display recipes using his/her favorite food.

I finally found it myself. Here is what I was originally looking for...
DimoPortletcontext AsPlumtree.Remote.Portlet.IPortletContextDimsEmail AsString
oPortletcontext = Plumtree.Remote.Portlet.PortletContextFactory.CreatePortletContext(Request, Response)sEmail = oPortletcontext.GetRequest.GetSettingValue(Plumtree.Remote.Portlet.SettingType.UserInfo, "Email"))

Retrieve custom property for a community

How would you retrieve a custom property set on a Community? Is there an equilavent PT tag similar to the "pt:userInfo" tag?
Any info would be appreciated!--jason

We went a different route to obtain custom properties. However, when using the QueryObjects method, you have to pass it the folder id. How would go about retrieving the current folder id?
Thank you again!--JasonFTN Financial
Here is the code we are using:
Dim oPortletcontext As Plumtree.Remote.Portlet.IPortletContextDim oPortletManager As Plumtree.Remote.PRC.IObjectManagerDim oExtendeddata As Plumtree.Remote.PRC.IExtendedDataDim oQuery As Plumtree.Remote.PRC.IObjectQueryDim oRow As Plumtree.Remote.PRC.IObjectQueryRow
oPortletcontext = Plumtree.Remote.Portlet.PortletContextFactory.CreatePortletContext(Request, Response)
oPortletManager = oPortletcontext.GetRemotePortalSession.GetObjectManager(Plumtree.Remote.PRC.ObjectClass.Community)
oQuery = oPortletManager.QueryObjects(353)oRow = oQuery.GetRow(0)oExtendeddata = oRow.GetExtendedData
response.write(oExtendeddata.GetValue("Reference Number"))

How to add a custom property to the user's master record?

Hello,
I would like to add a custom property to the user's master record which is unique to our company (User's region).
Is that possible? and if yes, how?
I'm a bit new to BW so a step-by-step procedure will help
Roy

The user names are stored in table USR01. IN that table see if you can add a field to have region. Extract this table and store it in User info object in BW.
You will need a ABAP person to do this, if you are new to SAP.

How to retrieve access rights for an user/usergroup ?

Hello everybody.
I'm working on BO XI 3.1. And I have to develop with the .NET SDK package an application that retrieves the following data :
- the access rights to WEBI application and properties for each user/user group.
- the access rights to each folder and properties for each user/user group.
etc
The idea is to retrieve for an user/usergroup the access right on each property of WEBI application and softwares. and same thing for folders....
I'm looking at the .NET SDK package contents but it takes me a lot of time, even too compared to my deadlines. So I'm looking for help.
Does anyone have an idea about class of objects, properties and methods to use ?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Thanks for these samples.
The list of user and usergroups is very interesting to audit CMC but my need is different : for example, I'm looking a method to retrieve the level access (full control, no access, ...) of an usergoup on each webi's property. The reason ? To know for example which usergroups have fullcontrol access on the right name "edit SQL" ?
I think it's hard to retrieve but very interesting to audit CMC...

How to access custom property for attribute and control in .vm file?

Hi,
I have created custom properties in OPM for attribute and apply also that properties to attribute.
But if how to access that value in .vm file?
I accessed using
$attribute.getProperty("ScreenProp", "default value")
but it's not working but same is worked for screen custom property

$control.getProperties().get("PropertyName") works for custom properties on a control
If you output $control and $control.getProperties() to the html you can lookup the API for the used classes.
I can't give an example of the html because it's stripped in this forum

Read navigation url OR Custom property for a term in Taxonomy using Javascript

Hi All,
we have followed the below steps to retrieve the managed metadata terms.
http://sympmarc.com/2013/10/11/spservices-stories-18-retrieve-managed-metadata-using-javascript-and-spservices/
and we have achieved and constructed the same through JavaScript.
Below is the screen shot.
Issue:-
we are unable to retrieve the term navigation url. Can you please help us to retrieve navigation url OR Custom property.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
According to your description, you want to manage term custom property in SharePoint 2010.
As you know, there is no OOTB method to meet your requirement.
If you want to do it without coding, you can take a look at this tool about managing term store:

SharePoint 2010 UI Interface to add Custom Property for a Term, similar to SharePoint 2013 .

Hi All,
We have a requirement to capture additional metadata for each Term (Ex: Requested for, Requested date, Requested by). these properties are not available in Sharepoint 2010 OOTB but can be acheived using Term.SetCustomProperty(). where as in SharePoint 2013,we
have option to add/update/delete custom Properties in Term Store management window(Custom propertiesTabs) , which is OOTB.
Just want to understand is there any way to get that Custom Property Tab interface in 2010. Or any other way to manage(Add/Update/delete) custom properties from the browser itself.
Is there any codeplex/other solution which will allow us to manage properties from browser with out doing the code.
Any suggestions on this would be helpful
Thanks in advance

I CAN NOT BELIEVE APPLE OFFERS NO PHONE CUSTOMER SERVICE FOR ITUNES USERS!

I have been unable to access my purchased music on my new computer (the old one crashed before I could back up my purchased itunes music). I clicked "check for purchases," and received one of several television shows I purchased and NONE of the dozons of songs and albums. When I clicked "check for purchases" again, a box came up that said "all purchases have been downloaded for this account." Does Apple really not allow you to recover your purchased music in this situation? Does Apple really put profits ahead of customer satisfaction to the extent that they've eliminated phone customer service for itunes altogether? Well, I know the answer to the second question from research is yes. How sad. But can anyone help me with the first Q? Is all my purchased music really gone permanently? Thanks. -Matt

Hi, Matt.
Apple's policy is clear: iTS purchases can be downloaded only once. It is your responsibility to make back-ups.
That being said, at their discretion they have made one-time exceptions to this policy. You can ask for an exception by submitting the form at the bottom of this page:
http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/backup/
Good Luck! But whatever the response from Apple, remember:
Your music is valuable - please back it up!

Hasan,
You have few options, based on the route you want to take"
1) You could control the "Visbility" of the fields, via using a feature like
Target Audiences .
However,this may not control the same custom field on the page based on user permissions.
2) Use JavaScript: https://badalratra.wordpress.com/2013/05/04/how-to-disable-pdp-custom-fields-using-javascript/
3) Jquery: http://epmainc.com/blog/locking-custom-fields-pdp-project-server-2013-using-jquery
4) Customization: https://epmxperts.wordpress.com/2014/01/20/secure-pdp-pages-as-per-project-server-security/
5) You could look into a third part product, by Fluent Pro: https://help.fluentpro.com/pdp_manager/start
I realize these may not be exactly what you need, but with some effort, I am sure you could modify the code and reuse.
