SharePoint 2013 public facing site - need to mask url in search results

Hi, we have sp2013 public facing site. Can we mask the display url in search results? Actually we are pointing two urls(ex: A & B) to same web application. Search results are already crawled based on A URL, so when people search in browsing 'B'
URL search results is giving URL with 'A' site. Please let me know if anyone have possible solution.
Can we have more than one url for internet zone in AAM? i browsed in blogs most of them say it is not possible.
Thanks,
JB

SharePoint 2013 public facing site doesn't not allow to view lists

All,
I have couple of questions regarding Sp2013 internet facing site. I am using Windows Azure environment with my own AD, DNS, WFE and of course SQL. please visit http://sharepointpath.com to see what i am trying to achieve.
My questions are as below:
1) I am unable to access any of the lists for blog and team sites, when I click on any of the links it prompts for authentication. Web application is allowed anonymous access with "Entire site" not just lists and libraries.
2) blog site and team site doesn't inhering master page from parent. I have changed master page setting to inherit on all sub sites, but doesn't appears to be working as expected.
3) I am unable to access site using "www" CNAMe www.sharepoinpath.com
Any help on this would be much appreciated.
Thanks

In addition to allowing the anonymous authentication method for the web application you also need to set the anonymous policy and enable anonymous access in the site.
Cloudshare has a good write-up about this. See How to Enable Anonymous Access to a SharePoint 2013 Site!

Sharepoint 2013 Public Facing Website With Managed Metadata Navigation on Office365 E3 Trial Online

Warning: I am a complete novice in sharepoint
I have subscribed to office365 online trial Enterprise edition to learn sharepoint
I have created a Public facing Website
Through the site-collection setting -> navigation created a new metadata group named navigation and chose it for global and current menu(I switched on the publishing service)
Under the term Management I added two sub terms(for navigation group) with links to document and home.aspx
The team site immediately showed the global menu with only two options(home and document) as needed
Unfortunately the public facing site did not show any such options and instead showed a different menu(default one)
I tried to add the navigation snippet to the master page and it showed the same default menu.
The public site has no navigation option in Site setting either
QUESTION: How can I get managed navigation in public facing site? Is it possible or it is not allowed?

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to use the Managed Metadata Navigation in Public Website.
Per my experience, we could not use the managed metadata navigation in public website, it is only available for the internal site collections.
For more information:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/154/t/166500.aspx
You can refer to the following article to know the public website and internal site collections on Office 365.
http://blogs.sharepoint911.com/blogs/jennifer/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=76
As this is the forum for the SharePoint server, , I’m not sure whether it supported managed metadata navigation now.
I recommend you can post your question to the forum for SharePoint Online:
http://community.office365.com/en-us/forums/154.aspx.
More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to SharePoint Online.
Thank you for your understanding and support.

SharePoint Online Public Facing Website Issues/Limitations

Hi,
We would like to use SharePoint Online for a public facing website (we are using the intranet side already which works well) but have noticed a lot of issues trying to get it to work the way we want to. I have seen on the web that there are quite a few limitations
from various blogs/forums with suggested work-arounds but none of them have worked thus far.
Basically I need to make a call on whether or not SP Online will be able to meet the requirements or if we'll have to look at an alternative solution.
E.g. 1) Document Libraries
1.1) I've created a document library and exposed it through an app part on a public page. This seems to work fine for the most part when using PDF files but any Word/Excel documents want to open in OWA or, if forced, in the client application which then
starts prompting for credentials. The requirement here is to have various documents available to the public to download and fill in. Is it possible to force all files within a document library, when clicked, to prompt to download/save the file?
1.2) When clicking on the name of the document library that is displayed in the app part, it wants to open the document library itself which then redirects to the login page. The issue with this is that if a user goes down a level into a folder in the document
library, they have to use the browser back button to go back up a level. Most users will click on the title though which doesn't lend well to a good user experience. Is there any way to prevent this and have the title link to the page with the app part or
have some form of folder navigation present?
E.g. 2) Calendars
1.1) I have found a "work around" in changing the content type to Event for this to somewhat work but we need a calendar to be filterable by a certain category which doesn't seem possible when adding the calendar app part to a public page. If it
is possible to display a view selector on the public page, that would suffice but it seems that adding the part to the page limits it to a pre-defined view.
1.2) I also tried displaying it as a "list" instead of a calendar view but when trying to open a single item to see its contents, we are again redirected to the login screen. Is there any way around this?
1.3) Using the same list approach at least shows the column titles but when trying to open the filter drop down I get "Cannot show the value of the filter. The field may not be filterable, or the number of items returned exceeds the list view threshold
enforced by the administrator" which doesn't happen when logged in. Is this also by design or is it fixable somehow?
1.4) The same issue applies for the title of the calendar whereby clicking on it directs the user to a login screen.
I've tried numerous attempts at getting the above to work but basically if SP Online public facing websites are not meant to be more than simple content pages/brochure type sites then we'll have to use an alternative solution. If anyone else has encountered
the same types of issues or figured out workarounds for them, I'd love to hear what they are!
Kind regards,
Rick

Hi ,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to customize the search result for displaying news pages with query string in your SharePoint Online.
For your issue, you can create custom search result template and modify the following code:
<a href=”_#=ctx.CurrentItem.Path=#_”>
_#=ctx.CurrentItem.Title=#_
</a>
For more information, you can refer to the blog:

Can Sharepoint 2013 Server Team Site page layout be changed to have the same page layout as Sharepoint's previous version?

Hello Community
    Using WS2012 and Sharepoint 2013 Server you can add a
Calendar to a page.
    The problem is that Sharepoint 2013 Server's default "Team Site"
page is not setup with a box on the far right of the page and 2 boxes in the
middle (one above the other) where you could insert web parts into
those boxes.
    So the question is when you use Sharepoint 2013 Server "Team Site"
page (if not is there any other site page) where you can have a box
on the far right of the page and 2 boxes in the middle of the page
(one above the other) so that you can insert web parts into those boxes
(as the previous version of Sharepoint's default page was setup) and if so
how?
    Thank you
    Shabeaut

Hi Shabeaut,
Based on your description, my understanding is that you want to change the text layout for the home page of the team site as it was in SharePoint 2010.
If I misunderstood, please feel free to correct me.
I recommend to edit the home page and then click Text Layout in the ribbon on Format Text tab, then select the text layout you need.
Best regards,
Victoria

Grant read permission on List for Anonymous user for public facing site in Sharepoint 2013 Online

I have a public facing SP site ( SP online 2013 with Office 365 ). There are certain app parts added to it which read data from a
custom list created on that site. By default anonymous users do not have read permissions list. I want users to see the list data without login in . I tried modifying the settings for anonymous users , however I am unable to do it as the "anonymous user"
permissions cannot be checked by me.
How do I provide read permissions to anonymous users?
Thanks in advance

once you make the web site online anonymous users get the read access to list.
You can add the list view webpart and show the details to anonymous users. In the below link i have added the announcement list view webpart to a page.

Sharepoint (Public facing site) Project Guidance

Hi friends ,
This is my first sharepoint project (SP 2013) for which I have been asked to develop a public facing internet site.
I do have a basic idea about certain concepts of sharepoint but still I'm looking for a guidance to how to go about with the project.
Requirements :
1. There are many modules. And each module has many courses.
ROLES : Anonymous Users : Read and download
Content Authors : Add, Edit, Delete content.
Approvers : Publish content
Need to implement cross-site publishing model (correct me if I'm wrong).
3. In one of the webpages of the website, there will be a table in the layout displayed as below: in which anonymous users can only read and download
documents. The brochure icons should allow to download document when clicked. Only authors have the authority to do any editing of the content as mentioned earlier.
Title
Duration
Brochure
--------------------------------------------MODULE 1------------------------------------
Course 1
Course 2
--------------------------------------------MODULE 2------------------------------------
Course 1
--------------------------------------------MODULE 3------------------------------------
Course 1
Course 2
Course 3
4. Authors should have an interface where they can input the dates for individual courses for the entire year like in a calendar control and
display to anonymous users (only read) a set of all the courses scheduled like below:
            Jan       Feb     Mar
Apr      May     June    July     Aug     Sep     Oct       Nov      Dec
            --------------------------------------------MODULE 1------------------------------------
Course1 08-10                         02-04
Course2                       05-09
--------------------------------------------MODULE 2------------------------------------
Course1 08-10                         02-04
Course2                       05-09
QUERIES :
1. Based on my minimal knowledge, I suppose I should use document library for creating courses under specific modules.
But how do I customize the look and feel of the library based on the layout mentioned.
2. How to implement the calendar kind of functionality and how to combine all the scheduled courses together to be displayed in a webpage?
3. should I first design the authoring and publishing sites, then create master pages and then go for creating all list and libraries? What should
be the protocol for the above project?
Guys, its my humble request to please help me out :( :( :(.....Thank you in advance. Sorry for such a long description. Spare me on this. Have a good
day :)

1. Since I want a column called brochure which should be an icon (for each course record) and which will invoke upload/download( for authors) and only download for anonymous users, is there a datatype that is supported in custom list...because I couldn't
find any. Or do I have to implement a document library app?
Inder: Try Image content type. But on click it will download image and not whole course material. So my suggestion here is to create a calculated column to pull image and link download.
2. I would be very grateful if you could provide me with some useful links which might have a step by step procedure for implementing site architechture :
a)cross site publishing model
b) how to define the user permissions and content approval workflow for approvers
c) Customizing style of the custom list through sharepoint designer
Correct me if I'm wrong :
The protocol should be :
1. To plan site architechture which involves implementing cross site publishing model Inder: Yes, if required
2. Defining Lists and libraries ( I hope document library app is not required for the above specs..custom list should be fine) Inder : Yes
3. Customizing the style of custom lists and calendar functionality through sharepoint designer. : Inder: Prefer using CSS and designer.
4. Applying master pages and page layouts. : Inder Perfect. 3-4 can go together

SharePoint 2013 Sync two Sites

I have one farm with two SharePoint 2013 servers: server1 and server2,I have the same site on both servers, server1 and server2, I need to sync Power view reports between Server1 and Server2, can you help me how implement it?
Thanks
Farm
Server1 | Server2
| |
MySite MySite

PowerView reports are standard content, just like any other document. The file is stored in the SQL database and displayed via the browser. You just need a network load balancer for Server1 and 2 in order to route users as required.

SharePoint 2013 workflows for SPD - need a separate server to run workflow engine?

Hi there,
I have a single machine dev installation of SharePoint 2013. How to have SP 2013 Workflows done in SharePoint Designer - so we can migrate them from one environment to the other without having to make manual changes again.
Does this need any special software installed? Can we install it on our APP server?
Thanks.

Hi Frob,
If you want to be able to move workflow manager to another environment, then you need to install the workflow manager in a separate server.
When you want to use the workflow manager in another environment, you need to leave the workflow manager from the existing farm.
And then join the workflow manager to the farm where you want to use the workflow manager and also re-register the workflow service.
Here is a similar issue for you to take a look:

Update Sharepoint 2013 document library folder columns using document url

Hi All,
I have a SharePoint document library. In that library I am having folder name called Folder1. In this folder Folder1 I have 4 files in it. Now. I need to update the status column of these 4 files in Folder1 folder using the url of these 4 files.
So can anyone help me in to solve this problem. I am using SharePoint 2013 and Visual studio 2012. I want the code in C#.
Thanks & Regards,
Kishore
Kishore

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to update the field within the folder.
I have made a simple code demo below to update the field within the folder, you can have a look at it.
using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://YourSiteURL"))
using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())
SPList list = web.Lists.TryGetList("Lib1");
if (list != null)
foreach (SPListItem folderItem in list.Folders)
if (folderItem.Title == "Folder1")
SPListItem item = list.GetItemById(5);
item["Status"] = "Updated";
item.Update();
Console.WriteLine("Field update successfully...");
