SharePoint Logo URL on SubSites linking to Top Site

Hi All,
Is there a way (out of the box, too) of making all the SharePoint Logos on all SubSites bring the User back to the upper-most top site in the collection, instead of bringing the User back to the subsite home?

This would require editing the masterpage to change where the value of that link is being pulled from. Its very possible, but there is no way to do it that I am aware of without editing the master page.

Granting access to SharePoint Designer on a SubSite but not the Site Collection

Is it safe in SharePoint 2010 to give a user the ability to use SharePoint Designer on a SubSite of a Site Collection and not give them permission, other than Visitor access, to the root Site Collection (Parent Site collection)?
Most importantly, I want to make sure the only damage a user can do is to their own subsite, and not do anything that will impact the Site Collection.
I created a test user and granted it FULL access on a test subsite and only view on the parent site collection and was able to use designer logged in as the test user. I was able to modify the subsite pages and create workflow. I was not expecting
this to work based on the following statement in KB article
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2592376
Overall, an user needs to be a member of one of the following groups at the site collection
level to be able to use SharePoint Designer and modify SharePoint content:
- Site Collection Administrators
- Designers
- Owners
Does anyone have any advice on this?
Thanks!

I think I just found out why in SharePoint 2010 I'm able to give a user "Designer" permissions on a subsite and "Read" only permission on the parent Site Collection root site and they can still use SharePoint Designer with
no permission issues in the subsite.
http://suehernandez.wordpress.com/2013/02/15/sharepoint-designer-2010-you-do-not-have-permission-to-do-this-operation/
From the Article: "Turns out the reason for these varying behaviors is this: In 2007, new sites would automatically inherit their
master pages from their parents. If you made no changes to that, it inherited right up to the top. So it’s looking at the master page from the top, in those circumstances. And as we’ve seen here, if you don’t have Design permissions to it,
it doesn’t work.
In the case of a new 2010 site (just a regular Team Site), the new 2010 behavior is to use the Master Page in the gallery it has in its own site. And since the user is an Administrator (Full Control) of that
site, then no problem getting to the Master Page!"
Does anyone have any experience with this?

How to add "create subsite link" on my site home page?

We are using SharePoint 2013 online for our intranet application. One of the requirements is to add a "create sub-site link" on the home page. Are there any available webparts I can use to add this functionality on the home page? I remember
seeing this on one of our users home page but not able to remember how it was setup? The home page will be a custom template.

Hi,
Let me if I understood your requirement, and based on my understanding you can simple use the Link webpart (App) which is OOTB in SharePont 2013 and use this url
http://yourSite/_layouts/15/newsbweb.aspx to the link webpart (App).
This one is a simple solution, since its OOTB you would not have any overhead in maintaining it.
Hope this helps!

How to disable the selection of "Title and logo URL of a SharePoint 2013 site" from browser

how to disable the selection of "Title and logo URL of a SharePoint 2013 site" from browser or How can we able to set our custom default log to the sp2013 site using code.So that users are not allowed to change from browser again.
Thanks & Regards, Krishna

Hi Krishna,
For your issue, you need to deploy a farm solution using HideCustomAction to hide site settings link. For example to hide “Title, description, and logo” link you can use below code:
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
<HideCustomAction
GroupId="Customization"
HideActionId = "ProjectSettings"
Location = "Microsoft.SharePoint.SiteSettings">
</HideCustomAction>
</Elements>

Copy sharepoint 2013 subsite names to top level site list

How could I copy sharepoint 2013 subsite names to a top site list by using workflow?

Hi,
In SharePoint 2013, we can use REST API to get all the subsite names in workflow, then add the values in to the list.
REST URI:
http://WEBAPPURL/sites/SITENAME/_api/web/webs?$select=Title

List View webpart from subsite to Top site shows random error "List Does not exist"

Hi All,
We have a list in subsite and we are creating a view for that list which we are showing in one of the top site home page. We have taken care of changing the web and list guid of list view webpart when we added on top site. Its working fine but some time
shows error "list does not exist" but when we refresh the error goes. Is it known issue or if there is any workaround for this? because we cannot go live with this random error.

How do I only show typed URLs in the Top Sites screen?

It's really obnoxious to see hundreds of ephemeral URLs that you'll never visit again on the Top Sites screen. Is there a way to make this user friendly so I can only see the URLs I typed. I am happy to set something in about:config.

No, this is for Android version. I would love to disable the stupid "Awesome" screen. The link you posted explained how to turn the tab garbage off on the desktop version, but Mobile (i.e. Android) version ignores the parameter value.
Likewise, the above "browser.urlbar.default.behavior" parameter set to '32' produces the reasonable behavior I want on the desktop, but the Mobile (Android) version just ignores this configuration parameter.

Why does Top Sites reject a specific URL addition

I have bumped into a specific URL that cannot be added to Top Sites graphically, from Bookmarks or from any source I tried using a drag, yet can be added by using the Bookmarks/Add Bookmark/"where to keep it" pull-down.
The amount of time I just wasted learning this empirically was insulting, maybe an hour to tie up the loose ends. In the end, I can march down my Bookmarks testing every link and some can be added while some can't, nothing to do with the specific link I started with.
Is there a guideline anywhere specifying what types of URL's have this problem (feature?), and more generally why the method used to add an URL could possibly have anything to do with anything? Anything along the lines of WHY would be refreshing as I haven't found any info on this issue on the WWW.
Trying to leapfrog the obvious questions; yes, I've done it before, and yes, BannedURL STrings was cleared and relaunched from TopSites.plist.
I also wouldn't mind knowing why such an obvious affordance like an "X" bans a URL instead of simply deleting the Top Site from the list in "Edit" mode, but that's a whole 'nuther topic.

I'm going to call my own question answered because I believe I understand, but I don't want to spend more time proving it.
It would appear, simply, that similar pages in question don't behave similarly. As a browser there's nothing I can do about it so I failed in generalizing. There's obviously an HTML code feature that is not implemented evenly by those coding stereotypically similar pages, relating to saving or caching. Meh.

Is there a way to select MULTIPLE tabs and then copy ALL of the the URLs and titles/or URLs+titles+HTML links? This can be done with the Multiple Tab Handler add on; However, I prefer to use a Firefox feature rather than download an add on. Thanks.

Currently, I can copy ONE tab's url and nothing else (not its name). Or I can bookmark all tabs that are open. However, I'd like to have the ability to select multiple tabs and then copy ALL of the the URLs AND their titles/or copy ALL of the URLs+titles+HTML links? This can be done with the Multiple Tab Handler add on; when I download the add on, I get a message saying that using the add on will disable Firefox's tab features. I prefer to use Firefox features rather than download and use an add on. Is there a way to do this without an add on?

Hi LRagsdale517,
You should definitely be able to upload multiple files by Shift-clicking or Ctrl-clicking the files you want to upload. Just to make sure you don't have an old version of the service cached, please clear the browser cache and then log in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/files. After clicking the File Upload icon in the upper-right corner, you should be able so select multiple files for upload.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

How can I see the url of a link before clicking on it?

Hi. I have Firefox 10.0.2. I used to be able to see the url of a link on web pages in the bottom left of the browser. That way, if I the url didn't seem legit I wouldn't click on the link. But now, when I put the mouse over a link, nothing comes up. How can I see the link addresses again? Thanks.

The Status Bar. where the link previously showed on mouse hover, has been replaced by the Add-on Bar. You can install the following add-on to get some of the former Status Bar functions back. The Add-on Bar must be turned on. The add-on will also stop the showing of the "tooltip" type status loading text, and will, instead, show it in the Add-on Bar:
*See --> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/what-happened-status-bar
*To turn on the Add-on Bar, see --> https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Back%20and%20forward%20or%20other%20toolbar%20items%20are%20missing#w_showing-the-navigation-toolbar '''and click on "Add-on Bar" to check it'''
*Add -on '''''Status-4-Evar''''': https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/
*If necessary, after install and restart:
**Open Customze window (Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout '''''OR''''' View > Toolbars > Customize '''''OR''''' ALT+V+T+C '''''OR'''''right-click in the empty space at the end of the Tab Bar and choose Customize)
**'''While Customize window is open''', drag any or all of the following from the Customize window to the Add-on Bar in the order and position you want them to appear. Then click "Done" button at lower right on the Customize window.
***"Status Text" ('''''link on mouse hover or during page loading''''' or "Done" when page is loaded)
***"Progress Meter" (progress bar of page loading)
***"Download Status" (status of download)

Return Links at top of Report? Legend Labels on Bar Chart Rollovers?

Hi,
I have two questions.
1. Is there a way to easily put the 'Return' links at the top of all reports? i.e. is there a template I can edit to do this to all my reports? I have hundreds of reports and changing them all by hand by putting a static text with HTML isn't really an option for me.
2. Is there a way to show the Legend value when you hover over a Bar on a Bar Chart. I'm pretty sure pie charts do this, but in my Bar Chart, hovering over the individual bars only shows the value. I would like for it to also show which legend item it is when a user hovers over.
Thanks,
Kevin

Kevin,
I was looking into the issue. I can confirm that the scid code that's generated is dynamic.
I also looked into the return link - the code is the following (you already know this).
td class="ResultLinksCell"><a href="javascript:void(null)" onclick="return ViewBack('d:dashboard~p:9md8uku78u84kdge~r:kug9avdjlblr24fq','DrillBack','1pnm8a1lmln3ml08v6lil3d8gi');" title="Return to the previous page" name="SectionElements">Return</a</tdI checked several JS files in OracleBI\web\app\res\b_mozilla folder - tableview.js, viewhelper.js- although I found the function responsible for Return link (viewback) - I couldn't find the xml where you'd need to put that link in front of the following code - div id="idResultsTableParent"><table id="saw_146_3" class="ResultsTable" I suggest you search for the place in xml where it's generating table view and put the return link on top of the table.

FrameMaker 9 - URL's not linked and/or not updated in .pdf output

I'm editing (or trying to) a .book that someone else (former tech writer at work) created. I can find the URL references (markers) and have updated them and/or updated the commands in them as best I can tell. (As best I can tell meaning that I see them saying that they are linked to the right address. We now require https: where we previously support http: access to a certain site, so I'm having to update all of the links that would go to that site that are included in the document that I'm trying to update)
The problem is multiple, as in I'm working on 2 different documents. In one of them it would appear that most of the links are just gone. Where I edited the marker to go to the right site there is no longer a link to the site at all.. just the text that shows the site name that was there as a hotlink before :-(
In the second document I'm having a similar issue, the hotlink that should be going to the site I want to reference is just gone. The text that should be a hotlink to the site is there, it's underlined as it was before, but the hotlink is gone... just the text remains with no hotlink in the .pdf file that is created when I print the book to .pdf
The other issue is that I updated the markers in the headers/footers to go to the https: address and yet the links that are there in the headers/footers are showing http: and that is where the hotlinks are trying to get to.
I'd appreciate any help anyone can offer on what I may be doing wrong or how to correct the issue.
Thanks!

Barry,
It could be that whomever was creating the documents before simply relied on Acrobat's ability to convert URLs to active links dynamically, instead of inserting the actual hypertext markers on the FM end of things. In that case, you will have to add the markers manually.
There also may be a conflict between what Acrobat is automatically trying to interpret as a link and what you have defined by the marker to be the link. FM uses the formatting range that the marker is inserted into to delimit the "hot" zone for the link. So if the marker is inserted outside of a formatting change (i.e. not blue and underlined), then you may end up with two links in Acrobat.

Want to disable one of the sub link in top menue "Goto"

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me a way of disabling the sub link of Goto link in top menu.
ex: Goto > Cost > Analysis ("Cost" I want to disable) this you can find in COR3 - Process Order Header screen.
Thanks
Dinesh

Hi Martin Voros,
What you are saying is wrong i guess. Because in our company some times users complaining that they can't save reports as a local file since the "List > Save > Local File" link is disable (ash color). Once i give the autherization for object S_GUI field name ACTVT = 61, they can go ahead with that and save it as a local file.
Like wise if some one tell me the obect for "Goto > Cost > Analysis" that is enough i beleive.
Thanks
Dinesh
