Using CreatedModifiedInfo in custom webpart SharePoint 2013

We've used those lines of code in SharePoint 2010 for a long time and we never had any issues with them. We've created a custom webpart and added the modifiedinfo toolbar to the bottom. Now we've moved our site from SP2010 to a SP2013 while still using SP2010
UI. So we're still in 2010 mode while this problem occurs.
internal static void AddToolBarInfo(this ToolBar toolBar, SPControlMode mode)
info = new CreatedModifiedInfo();
info.ControlMode = mode;
toolBar.Buttons.Controls.Add(info);
The control is added properly but no information are shown inside the toolbar. Somehow not many persons have used this toolbar, so I'm not able to find many informations about it. Since we've never done more than adding the control, I don't know where to
start looking when the control is not properly filled.

Has anyone used the CreatedModifiedInfo before in his code?

To show ECB in dataview webpart Sharepoint 2013

HI
I have to add ECB to my dataview webpart. Normally it was not feasible in 2010 but is it possible now in 2013.
Can we add the ECB or it remains same
Thanks

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to show ECB in dataview webpart Sharepoint 2013.
If you want to enable ECB menu on a column in dataview webpart, you need to open the SharePoint Designer 2013, select the web part, under
<View> locate <ViewFields> and then the
<FieldRef Name=”Title”> or the field where you want to enable the ECB menu and then add the attribute
ListItemMenu=”TRUE”.
Here is a similar blog for you to take a look at:

pls. help.
The pop up error msg. is "Sorry, you don't have access to this page"

Hi,
According to your description, after you cleared job queue about force check-in then you can't access some pages in PWA.
Maybe you need to check in the pages which has been checked out.
If you have administrative rights, it is possible to override the check-out via the View All Site Content page:
Site Actions->View All Site Content->Pages->Hover the item you want to check in, and from the context-menu (arrow-down next to the filename), choose "Discard Check Out"
Besides, to troubleshooting the error “Sorry, you don't have access to this page”, refer to the following articles:

When to use Managed Metadata service in Sharepoint 2013 and 2010

Hi Folks,
I have been working on sharepoint from quiet some time now. I have been using managed metadata service also.
What I have not been able to find out so far is when should I be using MMS.
What are the real advantages that I can draw out of it.
I have one application that has Managed Metadata installed and has various terms stores and terms.
The Managed metadata service created is utilized in search,
What I do not know is what is why are we using it at all.
What is benefit of it.
Managed metadata service could also be used in navigation is what i know.
But what confused me is when is the best scenario to use it for navigation.
Why can we not use the navigation provider in the managed metadata service.
There might be other uses also, but that is not clear to me.
Can any one tell me why and in which scenario to really use it.
I know how to configure the mms and how it works though the jargons around the managed metadata.
Regards

Managed Metadata has some specific advantages that make it useful for certain situations.
A managed metadata column has the following advantages over a lookup or choice column:
A managed metadata term set can be shared across the entire SharePoint farm, so you can use it in different site collections.
You can set up "synonyms" so that multiple similar terms resolve to the same underlying piece of information
Terms can be hierarchical (terms can be nested under other terms), and the SharePoint interface allows hierarchical filtering. For example, if I have a term set for Location, and one of my terms is North America, with terms below that for United States,
Mexico, and Canada, I could choose to filter my list to show me all records with any North America location (inclusive of US, Mexico, and Canada), or to filter on a specific term (such as Mexico).
You can allow people to enter new terms, which will then appear in the term set.
You can specify information owners/stakeholders who maintain the term sets without them needing elevated access to sites; normally only site owners can mess with site columns and content types. Managed metadata lets you separate information management
(what terms/synonyms should be used) from site management (granting access, creating groups and lists, etc).
There are some disadvantages too. For example, with a lookup column, the lookup list can store additional columns of information. A managed metadata term set (on the other hand) only really stores terms (and descriptions/synonyms), but not related
info. You might be tempted to do something like create a term set for part numbers, representing every part that your company produces; the term set would handle the part numbers just fine, but wouldn't let you add extra columns of information for
description, weight, price, etc. In such a case, a lookup list is the better option.
Microsoft has some suggested guidelines for when to use managed metadata/term store:
SharePoint 2013:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee519604(v=office.15).aspx
SharePoint 2010:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee519604(v=office.14).aspx
A brief summary...
Managed metadata is a good option when the potential metadata meets the following criteria:
Is something for which a user will select a valid value
Represents information that is likely to be used multiple times
Has valid values that can be organized hierarchically
Includes synonyms or abbreviations that should be aggregated
Can be applied in one language, but might be viewed in other languages
Managed metadata is not a good option if the potential metadata meets any of the following criteria:
Is represented by a built-in column (such as “last modified date”)
Has an infinite number of valid values
Has different valid values in each location that it is used (such as different values for the “version” attribute depending on which product team’s site the item appears in)*
Has only “yes” and “no” as valid values
*This type of metadata could still be captured in site collection-specific term stores

Software developer

Hi Sujilkumar,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to install web part wsp using install wizard.
In SharePoint, there is no set up wizard to install the web part. If you want to install your custom web part, you can use PowerShell Commands. Before you can deploy a solution package, you need to add it to the solution database of a SharePoint
Server farm like below：
add-spsolution c:\yourwsp.wsp
Then you can install the solution like below：
Install-SPSolution -Identity <SolutionName> -WebApplication <URLname>
Here are some detailed articles for your reference:

Using office web apps with SharePoint 2013

Hi,
I would like to use office web apps in our SharePoint 2013 environment. I would like to know if OWA has to have a dedicated server or can I install it on the SharePoint 2013 app server.
Sherazad

With SharePoint 2013, Office Web Apps cannot be installed on the SharePoint Server, it must be installed on its own server, not shared with any other IIS-based service (it essentially "takes over" IIS).

Pulling user/group field data from SharePoint list using REST, jQuery, Knockout.js Sharepoint 2013

I'm trying to make an interactive task board based on the task list app in SharePoint 2013. The task lisk includes fields like "Title","Description","Status","% Complete","Due Date","Assigned To",
etc. I used knockout.js to bind "Title","Description", and "Status" to my HTML controls. Here is some of the code:
var ViewModal = function(items, listname){
var self = this;
self.sortBy = ko.observableArray(sortBy);
self.tasks = ko.observableArray(items);
self.listname = ko.observable(listname);
self.auto = ko.observable(false);
self.getTasks = function() {
clearTimeout(self.getTasks);
// server relative url to REST service endpoint
var ajaxurl = _spPageContextInfo.webServerRelativeUrl + "/_vti_bin/listdata.svc/" + self.listname() + "?$orderby=PriorityValue";
$.ajax({
type: "GET",
url: ajaxurl,
contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
cache: false,
processData: true,
success: function (data, status, xhr) {
if (status == "success" && data) {
ko.mapping.fromJS(data.d.results, mapping, self.tasks)
$(".task-item").draggable();
error: alert
if (self.auto()) {
setTimeout(self.getTasks, 10000);
<div class="tasks-column">
<div class="column-header">Not Started</div>

<div class="task-item">
<div class="view" data-bind="visible: !IsEditing()">
<button class="edit" data-bind="click: $root.editTask">edit</button>
<h2><span data-bind="text: Title"></span></h2>
<div data-bind="html: Description"></div>
<span data-bind="text: PriorityValue"></span>
</div>
<div class="edit" data-bind="visible: IsEditing">
<button class="save" data-bind="click: $root.saveTask">save</button>
<input type="text" data-bind="value: Title"></input>
</div>
</div>
I'm having trouble displaying the data from the "Assigned To" user/group field. I tried:
<span data-bind="text: AssignedTo"></span>
But it displays the field as [object Object]
I tried using $select/$expand
?$select=Title,AssignedTo/Id,Assignedto/Title&$expand=AssignedTo/Id,AssignedTo/T‌itle";
But it still returns the [object Object]

Hi,
Please use the REST URI below:
/_api/lists/getbytitle('ListName')/items?$select=Title,AssignedTo/ID,AssignedTo/Title&$expand=AssignedTo/ID,AssignedTo/Title

Not able to use sky drive pro for sharepoint 2013

Hi Friends,
recently i have updated my sharepoint farm to sharepoint 2013 from sharepoint 2010.. due to some reasons I have not visually upgraded a site to sp2013 visual effects but all other sites have been visually upgraded. now, when I try to sync the doc lib
of the site(which is not visually upgraded) I get an error saying this site is running in sp2010 mode hence we cannot sync this doc lib using sky drive pro....I tried to sync it using sharepoint workspace also but still no luck.can any one help me?
this same doc lib is getting synced to my friend system but not my system.i dunno why.please help

Hi,
Yes, it is expected that we cannot sync SharePoint 2010 sites (non-upgraded) with Sky Drive Pro because of the October 2013 update to SkyDrive Pro (KB2825633). However, it should be OK with Sharepoint Workspace.
I will have a test to check how to sync in this scenarios. In the meanwhile, you can also create a service request with Microsoft on this product issue and they will provide fast help.

Error In Visual WebPart SharePoint 2013

So I was creating a SharePoint 2013 visual web part on Visual Studio 2012 and came to this problem. Visual Studio automatically creates WebPartUserControl.ascx.cs and WebPartUserControl.ascx.g.cs. the WebPartUserControl.ascx.g.cs is generated automatically
when you edit the WebPartUserControl.ascx file. So I've added a couple of ContentTemplate tags into .ascx file and Visual Studio generated this code in WebPartUserControl.ascx.g.cs :
public partial class WebPartUserControl {
public static implicit operator global::System.Web.UI.TemplateControl(AjaxVisualWebPart target)
return target == null ? null : target.TemplateControl;
When I try to deploy the solution, Visual Studio underlines the implicit operator
global::System.Web.UI.TemplateControl and
I get this error:
Namespace.WebPart.WebPartUserControl.implicit operator
System.Web.UI.TemplateControl(Namespace.WebPart.WebPartUserControl)':
user-defined conversions to or from a base class are not allowed
I don't even imagine how to solve this even though im struggling on this issue for a couple of hours now... Can somebody help me, please? I assume I have to add something to the .ascx file or to WebPartUserControl.ascx.cs maybe? Thanks in advance!

Hi somu1,
I suggest you check if the parameter is valid in the function.
By default, the parameter is the same as you class name like below:
public partial class HelloWorldWebPart {
public static implicit operator global::System.Web.UI.TemplateControl(HelloWorldWebPart target)
return target == null ? null : target.TemplateControl;

How to retrieve the users that are following a document using JSOM / REST APIs in SharePoint 2013

Hi everyone,
Does anyone know how to use JSOM / REST APIs to retrieve the users that are following a specific document in SharePoint 2013?
Thanks in advance,
Nam

Hi Nam,
Please use the sample code to get the followers for the document. Courtesy: Mokhtar
Bepari
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Client;
using Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.Social;
ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext("http://URL");
SocialFollowingManager followingManager = new SocialFollowingManager(clientContext);
SocialActorInfo actorInfo = new SocialActorInfo();
actorInfo.ContentUri = "<documenturl>"; //set the document url.
actorInfo.ActorType = SocialActorType.Document;
//By using the GetFollowed method you can get the people who the current user is following.
ClientResult < SocialActor[] > followedResult = followingManager.GetFollowed(SocialActorTypes.Users);
//By using the GetFollowers() method you can get the people who are following the current user.
ClientResult < SocialActor[] > followersResult = followingManager.GetFollowers();
clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
Once you get the resultset you can iterate like below:
foreach(SocialActor actor in followedResult)
string name = actor.Name;
string imageURL = actor.ImageUri;
