Search keywords on Advanced Search Box in SharePoint 2010 cleared on Search Result Page

I migrated SharePoint 2007/Windows 2003/MS SQL 2005 to SharePoint2010/Windows 2008 R2/MS SQL 2008 system. New system does not work just like old system and requires some configuration changes. The search keyword
on Advanced Search Box is appended to browser address bar instead of remain static in the search field on Search Result page. Anyone has fix for this so it will work just like SP 2007 version?

does it give you search results ? Can you provide us the exact string when keyword jumps to browser address bar ? Also provide browser and OS versions.

Search scopes taking long time to load SharePoint 2010

Hi!
It takes very long time (more than 5-10 mins) for the Search Scopes page to load. This is very annoying and proves to be very much NON-productive while working on search related tasks.
Please help if you came across any such issue.
Thanks,
Owens G. Jesse

Hi Owens ,
According to your description, my understanding is that only your Search Scopes page loads very slowly.
For your issue , you can enable Developer Dashboard for SharePoint 2010 with PowerShell first.
With Developer Dashboard, you can find out where the Search Scopes page loading time was spent at server side.

Please inform me freely if you have any questions.

Hi,
I have a CEWP with several image buttons in it. When a user clicks on the images, a "pop up" window should appear which will have several different links for the user to choose from. So when the user selects the the link he/she wants to go to,
the user will then be directed towards that page/list/form.
How can i create a "pop up" window/box for the 1st requirement?

SharePoint 2010 Site Web Analytics - Top Pages report not showing complete data

Hi,
I have a custom page in a team site which takes list ID as an argument and shows the relevant data e.g.
../Dashboards/View%20Briefing.aspx?BriefingID=1078
../Dashboards/View%20Briefing.aspx?BriefingID=1079 etc
When i look at the Top Pages report under Site Web Analytics all i can see is data for:
/dashboards/view briefing.aspx
I need stats for individual list items i.e. how many time BreifingID 1078 was viewed etc. Is it possible to achieve this using OOTB reports or can i write a custom report to achieve this? If yes then how...
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
Kashif

You’re dynamically filtering content on a single page with values on the query string. Your users are still only hitting one page (View%20Briefing.aspx). Analytics only sees that 'View%20Briefing.aspx' is being hit; it won’t record stats for what’s specified
on the query string.
I expect you could pull this data out of your IIS logs using log parser. Some links on this subject:

Add javascript to Out of the box Modal Dialogue Box in Sharepoint 2010.

Hi,
We have Sharepoint and Project Server 2010 SP-2 enviroment. We are using Project Server Timesheet for our managing Time logging.
Project Server 2010 has "Add existing task" Modal Dialogue box in which I want to add "Javascript" code in order to sort the Project Server Timesheet Line Claasification listbox control in Ascending order.
As you can see from below screenshot "Standard" the Out of the box timesheet line classification is coming at top and then our custom line classification coming.
But I want to sort this list in ascending order so that this "Standard line classification can come at the bottom of the listbox control.
Please suggest me how can I achieve this.
Thanks much !!!
Sachin Vashishth MCTS

Thanks SaiRam from input, I can get JQuery for sorting the control over the internet no issue. I have to pass the ControlId in J-Query to sor the items in that control and I am not able to get the control id as it;s modalk dialogue box.
Can you please explain further here, also let me know in case I am wrong in my understanding.
Thanks !!!

Creating cascading drop down boxes in SharePoint 2010 using one list

We have a support request form tied to a list that end users input data into which when submitted sends out an email.
Is it possible to create a drop down box on the form that limits the choices in the "subcategory" column, based on what is chosen in the "category" column.
For instance in the category column we have SharePoint, Oracle, and Web Tools as choices.
In the subcategory column we have items related to each category. We only want items that are related to the selected choice to appear in the subcategory drop down box.
I see examples in InfoPath using "Multiple Lists" (one list for city, one for state, etc), but nothing using the same list. I would rather not use multiple lists if possible.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.

Hi,
According to your post, you want to create a cascading drop-down list box using one list.
To achieve what you want, we can:
Create two fields(category and subcategory) in drop-down list box type in the form in InfoPath.
Add the list which contains the values of the category and subcategory columns to the form as an external data.
Right click the category field, click Drop-Down List Box Properties, and choose Get choices from an external data source.
Choose the list added in step2 in Data source, click XPath behind Entries, click the category column in the list, select Show only entries with unique display names.
Right click the subcategory field, click Drop-Down List Box Properties, and choose Get choices from an external data source.
Choose the list added in step2 in Data source, click XPath behind Entries, click the subcategory column in the list, then click Filter Data.
Click Add, select the category column in the list in the first box, select is equal to in the second box, choose select a field or group in the third box, then choose Main in the Fields and select the category field in the form.
Click OK.
Best regards.
Thanks

Trying to link SharePoint 2010 Enterprise with SharePoint 2013 Search Server raises error

Hi,
I am currently working for a multinational who has SharePoint 2010 Enterprise Edition installed, 2 WFE SERVERS, 3 APP SERVERS, 1 DB SERVER. They also installed SharePoint 2013 Exterprise recently.
   Microsoft have recently come in and set up the SharePoint 2013 Search Server to crawl content in SharePoint 2010 as the replacement search to SharePoint 2010 Search. So they have gone through process of certificates and permissions
setups I guess. I was told it was working, but recently failed. When I type in the search box on a web site for SharePoint 2010 I get the message:
         The search request was unable to connect to the Search Service.
I checked the Event log and the Critical error (in Task Category:Timer) I get is the notorious:
The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.CrawlReportJobDefinition (ID fa882704-80d9-415b-9b9d-eae5e9bdefd4) threw an exception. More information is included below.
        The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration
        component. Verify that the administration component 'e9172a05-22ec-4904-9508-
        e5431a180c2b' in search application 'Search_Service_Application' is in a good state and
        try again.
I know administration component is the crawler. I am assuming this is permissions.
The SharePoint 2013 Search Server is picking up SharePoint 2010 site collections items fine i.e. The SharePoint 2013 search shows items from 2010 as expected.
On the SharePoint 2010 central admin box the search service enabled and running (checked with powershell). (SharePoint Server Search 14)
The Search Service id: e9172a05-22ec-4904-9508-e5432a180c2b
I also get the message in event log for gatherer on SharePoint 2010 CA and Search Server:
       Could not access the Search database. A generic error occurred while trying to access the database to obtain
       the schema version info.
       Context: Application 'e9172a05-22ec-4904-9508-e5431a180c2b'
Details:
            (0x80040e09)
Is this permissions to delete something from crawler??????
I would appreciate if someone could help on this. I have tried to be as concise as possible.
Thanks.
John.

It was a case that someone had fiddled with the Service App Associations. Hadn't ticked SharePoint 2013 search. Was still point at 2010. Thanks.
The SharePoint 2013 Search works correctly for SharePoint 2010.
Can someone confirm that the Search Service Application on SharePoint 2010 still needs to exist and hence SharePoint Server Search 14 Service still needs to be running? I am guessing it would as you search from 2010 interface not 2013. I am getting a critical
error in the Event Viewer:
CrawlReportJobDefinition (Id <SharePoint 2010 Crawler>)
The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component. Verify that the administration component <crawler id> in search application "Search Service Application" is in a good state and try
again.
I think this is related to the fact we have SharePoint 2013 doing the search instead of 2010.
Any ideas?
John.

DW8 search box result page asp

Hi all,
I build with success a search box (text box) that search in
my db.
Now when I dont write a sting in the text box and push the
submit buttom,
the result page schow me all the results from my db. I set my
default value
parameters to %, this gives my all the results.
I'm wondering if there is a solution when my text box is
blank the result
page dont show all the records?
I can do thes by setting the default value to someting that
not match in my
db, like ----, but this is mayby not verry professional.
Is there a solution for this?
Thanks in advanced for your help!

Hi Dave, thanks for your help!
Yes, I had sorted out ;-)
For your information, you don't need two search fields. Make
for each
field in your db a variable and point for each variable to
the same
form field name, change the AND to OR. This works great!!
Happy New Year!!

Problems getting files to open in browser from SP 2010 search results page

We are in day 4 of having upgraded from MOSS 2007 to SharePoitn 2010 via database attach.
When a user looks in their document library, and clicks on a PDF, they are asked if they want to check out and open or just open, and when they make the selection, acrobat reader opens the doc.
When a user performs a search on the same library, and clicks on a PDF in the results page, the user is prompted if they wish to download the file, and then, after they save it, the file is downloaded and nothing else happens.
The users do not want their disks filled with unnecessary copies of files.
Note that I did add an "application/pdf" mime type to the allowedInlineDownloadedMimeTypes property .
This is only occuring when using the download results page.
Does anyone know a fix for this?
Thank you.

Hi lwvirden，
Generally, if the PDF is added to the Web Application's AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeTypes property , the PDF files will open in browser when clicking them regardless of on the search result page or the document library.
I recommend to delete the PDF from the Web Application's AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeTypes property and then re-add it to see if the issue still occurs.
Here is a table summarizes the various PDF rendering behaviors in search and library in the link below(same for SharePoint 2010):

I have Google set to show results in a new window. When I click on a results page link Firefox reverts to search results page almost instantly

I have Google set to show results in a new window, never use Google instant & search filtering off. When I click on a link on the results page Firefox reverts to the search results page almost instantly. I can of course select the desired page (via windows Aero). This happens on several computers, PCs & Laptops.
Not a major problem but VERY irritating. This seems to have happened from a few update ago ?

Can't retrieve approval status in Globally Reusable Workflow (Approval - Sharepoint 2010)

For day's i am trying to implement the following in one of the standard, out of the box, Globally Reusable Workflow with Sharepoint Designer 2010:
If Current Item:Approval Status not equals 0:#Approved Start Approval Workflow Task process on Current Item with Parameter:Approvers Else //Nothing
This is to prevent that a workflow is started if the item is already approved! The strange thing is, a buddy of mine has also Sharepoint 2010 and he can select in the DropDown list -Current Item: -> Approval Status..
But the only things I can select are the following:
Content Type
Created By
ID
Modified
Modified By
Title
I don't understand what is going wrong! What am i forgetting to configure or bind or set?

I have found the solution!
I have setup an test environment, Sharepoint 2013 on MS Server 2008R2 and installed Sharepoint Designer 2013. When I now edit the default out of the box "Approval - Sharepoint 2010", if you enter the condition "if current item field equals value", you can
now select "Approval Status"!!
So this means that it IS available after all! After a lot of trying, searching, this is the solution in a Sharepoint 2010 environment, installed on MS Server 2008R2:
Edit the (global or copied version if you want) workflow.
Add the condition "if current item field equals value" as a step.
Select from the item field: Content Type
Click on "equals" and change it to "not equals"
Then click on the condition and enter manually the following: 0;#Approved
Move the task "Start Approval Workflow Task..." up so it is a part of the condition "If.. "
Add an Else condition
Enter here your custom action or log to show the user that the Task is not performed.
Save the workflow.
We now have to manually edit the Workflow Rules file.
In Sharepoint Designer 2010, click at the left side of the ribbon on "All Files".
If you have created a custom workflow, you can find the "Workflow.xoml.rules" file, in the folder
Workflows/"Your custom workflow"/"CustomWorkflow.xoml.rules".
If you are using the global, out of the box Workflow, you can find the .rules file in:
_catalogs/wfpub/Approval - SharePoint 2010/ReviewApproval_1033.xoml.rules
Click on the file, then in the next screen click on "Edit file" under Customization. 4.Search for the string "ContentType" 5.When you have found the string, it looks a bit like this:
ns1:String xmlns:ns1="clr-namespace:System;Assembly=mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089">ContentType ns1:String
(When you look a few lines below this line, you see your added condition 0;#Approved)!
6.Replace the string ContentType with: _ModerationStatus 7.Save the file! 8.Open in the current directory the "Workflow.xoml" file (this is the workflow itself) 9. Click on the Save button, it will give you a notice:
A more recent version of _catalogs/wfpub/Approval - SharePoint 2010/ReviewApproval_1033.xoml.rules has been saved to the server by "user" on 1/5/2014 10:50 AM.
Do you want to replace this with your file?
Click NO! (Important, otherwise it will replace it with the default rules file, and nothing has changed!)
Close Sharepoint Designer 2010, reopen SPD2010 and go to the workflow.
Edit the workflow and you'll see the following now:
"If Current Item: equals 0;#Approved"
The field Content Type is now gone! This is correct so don't worry!
Publish the workflow and you are done!
Check now on a library that has a link to the edited workflow, when you start a new Workflow on a Approved-Major version of the document, what the outcome is:
The workflow is discarded because of the condition and nothing happened, so your document stays on the most recent Approved-Major version and is not published back to a previous version number!!
Conclusion: I think that the Sharepoint 2010 Designer, is missing that specific "Approval Status" field, but with the solution i have just given, you can solve this!
C# for the win!

SharePoint 2010 SP2 hosted on Windows 2012 R2 NOT discovered by SCOM 2012 R2 + 2 SP MP's

Peter,
I recommend to remove the Windows 2012 R2 server out of the farm and redeploy on W2008 R2.
This issue does not have an easy fix.
Summarizing, this appears to be the issue:
1. Windows Management Framework 3.0 is integrated with Windows 2012 R2, which installs .NET 4 and Powershell 4.0. Not uninstallable.
2. The Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell is not supported with Powershell 4.0.
3. The SCOM SP2010 MP puts a package on the defined farm server and when the agent launches the package, it calls Powershell (v4 in theis case) and errors out. The target W2012 server will have an Error 0 in the Operations Manager Event log. See below.
Options:
1. Work around maybe - Develop method for manual discovery (I'm working on that now).
2. Rebuild SP2010 farm on Windows 2008 R2
3. System Center Team - Write a new MP to down version Powershell (Powershell.exe -Version 2)
4. Powershell Team - Write a SharePoint Snapin for Powershell 4

Advanced Search using conditional & logical operators+ sharepoint 2010

Hi Team,
We have an requirement something like this. we have to search values from Custom SharePoint List using Conditional & Logical Operators in SharePoint 2010. how can i achieve this ? if some one has worked on something like this, can you please share the
details to my email id ([email protected])
Thanks in Advance.
Cheers, San

Hi Santhosh,
If you have only one list, then you can use CAML query to perform search in that list. You can write code to generate dynamic CAML based on selection in the filter.
If have to perform the search function on multiple list then you can use Search object model and create dynamic query and execute it using Search OM.

Paul
In the Query diagoue, if you go to the "+" in the upper right corner you can add new search criteria - you can add an IPTC search, select that a keyword has to conain some values, or add another IPTC search that excludes other values (does not contain).
So you could add what keywords you are interested in, then add an IPTC search and tell it the search cannot include images that have keywords that match a certain string.
