Creating sub menus with the Term Store Management Tool

I am using the Term Store Management Tool to configure my menus.
How can I have one of my menu have sub menus?

I believe this is what you want
So you have to go to Site Settings -> Term Store Management at _layouts/15/termstoremanager.aspx to create a term structure like below

What is the use of custom properties for terms in term store management of SharePoint 2013

Hi All,
Can some one pls explain what is the purpose of custom properties for terms in term store management tool of SharePoint 2013.
In general, for each term we have shared and local properties. What is the real purpose in terms of SharePoint development.
Please share with possible scenarios. Does it refer's to a hierarchical metadata in SharePoint ?
Thanks keshav,Share point Developer

The custom properties for terms allow you to further define or clarify a term via the properties. You can then display these properties in search results or specify query rules that look for specific custom properties.
Here is an example of how to create a query rule using custom properties:

Here is an example that uses code to verify that a custom property exists on a term object that is pinned to another term object:

Term Store Management: Change Default Label

I have merged two entries together (for the sake of this discussion, lets call them 'cat' and 'feline'). The Default label is currently 'Cat' and 'Feline' has been added to the Other Labels as part of the merge process.
I actually want the default label to be 'Feline' but I cannot change it in the term store manager. I have tried adding 'Cat' into Other Labels (in case Default Label can only show one of the existing labels) but that too fails.
The message I get is 'This operation cannot be completed. The terms store may be unavailable.' But I am able to add other entries to the Other Labels list (e.g. 'Lion') without any problems.
How can I change the Default Label and also add the existing Default Label to the Other Labels list?

OK, went back and tried again today and was able to get it to work first time.
I changed the Default Label from 'Cat' to 'Feline' and changed the Other Label entry 'Feline' to 'Cat' in a
single step and then saved.
I believe I tried this before (in addition to various permutations of attempting this in multiple steps) so either I am mistaken and was doing it wrong before, or the initial merging of terms takes time to fully implement (during which some changes are restricted),
or SP2010 is just a bit flakey. Having spend a few weeks on SP2010 now my money is on the latter option...

Problems with the & symbol in the term store management

Hi,
I encountered a strange error in the production environment of one of our customers. The ‘&’ symbol is being shown, in the term store management, as this ‘□’
symbol. In our test environment this problem does not occur.
Did anyone else encounter this issue? I am really curious what causes it.
Thanks in advance for the help.

I found that I could not actually enter the & symbol when trying to type it in. It appears to not be supported as far as I can tell. Did you do an import?Corey Roth blog: www.dotnetmafia.com twitter:

Term Store Management.

I have created certain term sets using "TermStoreManagement" Out of box feature in sharepoint 2013,my concern is that I have to export all those term set with their Custom Properties in .CSV File format. But by default we have an option to import
the term set there using csv file ,but not the export option.
I have been trying to access the term set name and its custom properties using powershell scripts, I can pull in the details of the termset name , and in the same way ,is it possible to pull in the details of its custom property value too???
please someone suggest an idea to do that....!!!!

The current user has insufficient permissions to perform this operation when trying to add Term stored managed navigation.

Hi,
i am getting this error "The current user has insufficient permissions to perform this operation." when trying to add the Term store managed navigation like the following screen shot. i am the Farm
administrator and as well managed services account. also noticed, cannot delete the service application, saying you don't have enough permission to delete the db. but using this account i was able to do everything before in my environment. is anyone already
face this kind of error, so what will be the way to resolve this?
Appreciated!

event though its a farm admin,It should provide the access to MMS.please find the below link for more details and the solution for the issue.
Go to SharePoint Central Administration Site –> Application Management –> [Service Applications] –> Manage service applications
2.   Highlight the Managed Metadata Service that your web application is associated with. (Do not click on the link, just click somewhere else on that row to highlight it)
3.   Click on Permissions button in the ribbon area.
4.   Add the application pool account used by your web application and give it ‘full Access to Term Store’
5.   Click OK.

Who can add users to the Term Store Administrators field in the termstoremanager.aspx

In the Term Store management tool (_layouts/15/termstoremanager.aspx) what permissions does a user need to have to be able to add/change/remove accounts and groups listed in the Term Store Administrators field.
I am guessing that they need to be Administrators of the Managed Metadata Service Application?
I ask because I have a user who is Admin of the MM Service App and is listed in the Term Store Admin field but cannot add or remove users in the Term Store Admins field in the Term Store management tool
Thanks
J

Hi,
To be able to add users to the Term Store Administrators in SharePoint sites, the user needs to be
both a member of the Administrators group on the computer running the SharePoint Central Administration Web site, and a member of the Farm Administrators group.

Auditing Permissions and site owners

My boss sent me a todo which says that he needs the following:
For each 'site':
- Farm
- Site Collection
- Site Name
- Site URL
- Site Description
- Site Owner
- MANAGER or SUPERVISOR of Site Owner
- Size of site
We have hundreds and hundreds of sites, (maybe a thousand now?), and on each one the original owner of the site has full rights to manage the users in his/her site. On some sites there are dozens of people in the (whateversitename_Owners) SP group.
And to make this even more challenging some sites don't have any "Owners" group, they are just granted permissions individually.
We've also learned the hard way that the Request Access email link on the sites is woefully out of date. A spot check on that reveals at least 1/3 or more of the email addresses go to users who are no longer with the company, (we've had SP for 8 years
or so).
Does anyone know of an inexpensive tool that I could purchase that might give us at least a good chunk of this data? And one that might be able to output that data into some kind of format that we could use to write some kind of PS script to give us
the rest? I'm not a PS person at all, so if anyone knows of script that could help us extract some of that data as well I'd love to hear about it.
Getting the Site Owner is going to be fun, and then getting that person's supervisor or manager from AD will be another fun task. I assume there is some way to use a PS script to get that once we get an owner defined for each site, but I'm not familiar
with how to do that.
Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.
Ted
P.S. The only good thing about this request is that now MAYBE the company's management will see fit to purchase some admin tool that would do that automagically.
<o:p></o:p>

Try running this from PowerShell.
#Pulls site url, owner and secondary owner and writes out to output.txt
Get-SPSite -Limit ALL | Format-Table -Wrap -AutoSize -Property url,Owner,SecondaryContact,RequestAccessEmail | Out-String -Width 1000 | Out-File -FilePath SiteDetails.txt
#Pulls site url and request access email and writes out to output.txt

Term Store missing complete list of terms

In my Term Store Management Tool, when I expand a Term Set, it is not listing all terms. It used to list the complete list of terms, but just recently it doesn't . The down arrow is missing where you would click to see the rest of
the terms. It only lists the first 10 terms.
Anyone know how to fix this to be able to see the complete list of terms?
I know they are still there, as I can see all the terms when I upload a document (metadata choices).
thanks!

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you can’t see the down arrow to view the rest terms which are more than 10.
In my environment, I also do this test and the result is that it works well.
Per my knowledge, it’s by design that the terms only can show the top 10 terms under a term set, then you can click on the drop arrow to view rest terms which are more than 10.
You can try to create a new Term Set or a Group, and separately do this test again to check if this issue only occurs on this term set.
What is your current browser? I recommend that you can change some different browsers to check if this issue only occurs on your current browser.
If you are using the IE browser, you can change the IE browser mode using F12, change to different mode, then check whether it works.
You can try to clear the browser cache and run the IE in safe-mode again to test if it works.
Also, I suggest that it’s better to use the IE 8 browser for SharePoint 2010.
And, does this issue occurs after you install any update in your environment?
I recommend that you can try to install the latest update in your environment to check if it works.

Term Store Metadata Not Restored

Hi Friends,
I have recently Upgraded My SharePoint farm to 2013 Enterprise .After Upgrade I had issues starting the managed Meta Data Service Application. I was getting the error : The Managed MetaData Service or connection is unavailable.
I Tried few tweeks as found on google with no success. I finally decided to delete the existing Meta data Service Application and created a new one.In the DataBase field I have added the old Managed metadata Database and reconfigured the
Service application. I then restarted the Service and executed the PowerShell command to set Database .
Now my Managed Metadata Service Application is up , however none of the terms or termsets are found in the Term Store Management Tool. I am lost and frustrated , can some one please help me if there is any way to resolve this
Regards

Hi Aravinda_SP,
According to your description, my understanding is that after you recreate the new meanged metadata Service Application and select the existing Database, then the metadata can't be found in the Term Store Mangement.
I suggest you can try to create the service application via UI and test whether it works.
Also, please take a look at the database to see whether there is data existing in the database.
Here is a detailed article for your reference:

Claims debacle (error) with Term Store: "Could not retrieve a valid windows identity" for all sites in a particular web app.

When I pull up the Term store in CA or any MySite collection, it works.
When I do so in any other site collection (HNSCs, incidentally), It doesn't return any term stores.
My ULS log immediately before and after the "/_vti_bin/taxonomyinternalservice.json/CheckPermission" POST on termstore .aspx triggers the WCF call:

The "The caller is not authorized to access the service." message seems pertinent.
Both web apps are using only NTLM auth.
The url for both web apps ends in the same contoso.com domain.
I get the same errors no matter what account I use, including the install account.
Things I've tried:
Deleting and building a new HNSC root web app and site. Error happens in all sites in all web apps except the PBSC hosting MySites.
Giving the root site app pool identity full control of the metadata service app (even though the MySite identitiy doesn't have it)
Giving the root site app pool identity full permissions on the metadata service app.
Comparing database and web app config permissions between dev (where everything works perfectly) and prod (where it does not).
Made sure IIS auth settings on both sites are identical
Both sites are using the same SSL certificate (though the call to the web service appears to be http)
Reprovisioned the metadata service app with a new database and new app pool identity.
Made sure C2WT is running. Tried it with the service stopped as well.
Web.configs are identical between working and non-working apps.
I'm stumped but still Googling. I'm hoping to avoid having to call Micrososft. Any help would be appreciated!
UPDATE:
Interestingly, when I restored the web application from backup (via CA), I ended up with 3 identical "Windows Authentication" authentication providers assigned to the problem web app. Since there was more than one, I was directed to the provider-chooser
page when visiting the site. Upon choosing 1 of the 3, I was authenticated, and *poof*, no more authentication errors and the term store loaded term sets as expected.
Of course, 3 providers was not an ideal state, so I grabbed the one that worked (#1) via get-spauthenticationprovider, and assigned it to the web app via set-spwebapplication, and my problem returned.
I am currently updating the farm to SP1 from June 2013 CU. Fingers crossed.
Update:
The update to SP1 went smoothly, but did not resolve the issue. Also related (I believe) are the random authentication errors when trying to upload images to some libraries, and 401-errors on the accessdenied.aspx page itself.
Update:
The problem is resolved, seemingly after making 4 changes. I'm trying to narrow down which change was the cure, if any:
I installed SP1 on all 6 servers, rebooted and upgraded. This appeared to have no effect.
Removed an old login from SQL that no longer existed in AD because of this ULS error:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: The user or group contoso\svc_xxxxxxxxx' is unknown., StackTrace: at Microsoft.SharePoint.Utilities.SPUtility.GetFullNameFromLoginEx(String loginName, Boolean&
bIsDL)
This login was the identity of the application pool that used to run the web app in question.
This login was the schema owner of a schema named after itself on every SharePoint database so I changed the schema owner to dbo but left the schema attached.
The problem may have surfaced initially when the app pool identity was changed in CA, but went unnoticed?
Note that the web app had been deleted and recreated many times with a new identity and pool to no avail, but the URL remained the same throughout each attempted fix. Relevant?
Grasping at straws, I changed the app pool identity for this web app to the same one that runs the MySite web app pool as per this only slightly related problem: http://www.planetsharepoint.org/m/preview.php?id=372&rid=34764&author=Vlad+Catrinescu
I changed the authentication method from NTLM to Negotiate.
I am rolling back #3 and #4 to see if the issue resurfaces.
Update:
It doesn't appear to have been the NTLM/Negotiate setting. Web app is currently set to NTLM and all is well. No strange accessdenies, and term Store is still manageable from all sites.
Update: Sorry for the delay. I am administering 6 farms these days. Will update as soon as the final phase of rollbacks happens.
I think I can. I think I can.

maybe that web app was accidentally created with classic auth?
here's an example of how to create claims based, with classic, and then "doing 2013" claims
#Create the example web application, as mentioned above, either with gui, and pick later, or
New-SPWebApplication-ApplicationPool$applicationPool-ApplicationPoolAccount$serviceAcct-Name$WebApp-Port
5050
-databaseName$contentDB-securesocketslayer
#If doing for 2013

5050
-AuthenticationProvider(new-spauthenticationprovider)
-databaseName$contentDB-secureSocketsLayer

Term Store - Terms with links in a list

Hello,
I have created a taxonomy within the term store. Some of these terms have navigation links on them (Simple Link or Header). In my custom
list I have added custom columns which are managed metadata fields. I can successfully search for my terms and add them to my list. However these terms do not offer a hyperlink to the page that I defined in the term store for that particular term.
Does SP not allow the term links to be displayed within a list as a hyperlink? Do the links only work within the Navigation hierarchy (I know
how to turn this on for a list)? Is there an alternative I can use to set up embedded links within the list that I don't have to define each time, thus my want to use the term store as each term can have a static URL against it.
My current work-around is to combine the 3 list’s columns into the default 'Pages' library to be able to use the link against the name field. However
there are 35+ custom columns that need to be added and the number of custom views may become unmanageable.
I appreciate any advice that may help my cause.
Kind regards,
Saavan.

Hi Adam,
SharePoint is supported to grant the permission on list item level.
Then when groupA has permission on all list items, the users contained in groupA will see all items.
When groupB has permission on only two items of the four, then suers contained in groupB will only see two items which they have permissions on.
For your requirement, you can go to prompted links list, then break the permission for the particular two items, and then remove the groups you don't want them to access these two items, then check results again.
More info for your reference.

Firefox 4.0.1 (or 5.0) will not display "Terms and Conditions" link content - online registration site, why? (Note Firefox 3.6.18 will).

Hi,
At the "URL of affected site", below, the "Terms and Conditions" link will not work on machine1 with Firefox 4.0.1, cookies and caches cleared (I clear "temp" directories too). I updated to Firefox 5.0, the "Terms and Conditions" link still won't work.
Note that other 'pop up' windows encountered while navigating through the parts look up function (i.e. http://www.fordparts.com/Default.aspx#tabs-2) on that site appear to work fine, with or without pop up windows enabled, in this install of Firefox 4.0.1.
As a sanity check, I tried the link on machine2, which uses Firefox 4.0.1 also, Windows XP. The "Terms and Conditions" link will not work there either.
I tried the link on a third machine, with Firefox 3.6.16, also Windows XP, and the "Terms and Conditions" link *does* work there.
So this would seem to be an incompatibility with Firefox 4.0.1 and/or 5.0. Any ideas [besides regressing back to Firefox 3.6.16 :) ].?
Regards,

No errors in error console. No effect using *. I tried using the dns name of my localhost both in the Firefox URL and in the javascript and I get exactly the same. I have spent a huge amount of time looking into this issue.
One thing I noticed is that if I use the examples on the internet (http://arunranga.com/examples/access-control/preflightInvocation.html or http://saltybeagle.com/cors/) they work in the same browser. These examples however, are accessed through HTTP proxies.
I am wondering if the issue has to do with using the same hostname just with different ports.
