SharePoint 2013 Hosting – ASPHostPortal.com : Social Feature of SharePoint 2013

Social Feature of SharePoint 2013

Out-of-the-box SharePoint 2013 has some pretty neat capabilities to support project management initiatives in your organization. Some of the enhancements will greatly improve the communication on a project so that everybody can collaborate effectively!

Some of the items like Newsfeeds enable immediate discussions, features connecting SharePoint to Microsoft Office helps people collaborate quicker and easier, and mobile improvements allow team members to stay tuned in while on the go.

SharePoint’s new features are strong influenced by–or in some cases, lifted from–from the top social networks. For instance, the updated My Sites feature has a strong microblogging component, complete with likes, hash tags, app mentions, and other social tools you’ll recognize from Facebook, Twitter, and Google+. Community sites–discussion forums where enterprise users share information and answer colleagues’ questions–bring a similar social feel to collaborative computing.

Sharepoint 2013′s People Card contains your contact information, as well as pictures, status updates, and activity feeds from SharePoint, Facebook, and LinkedIn. And SkyDrive Pro, the premium version of Microsoft’s cloud storage and syncing service, allows users to share files across SharePoint.

In earlier versions of SharePoint, each user had a profile and a personal site (e.g., My Site). The 2013 version of SharePoint splits My Site into three sections: Newsfeed, SkyDrive, and Sites. (More on each in the slideshow). A global navigation bar provides access to each section. These social features are tightly integrated into SharePoint 2013, so you no longer need to launch a Web browser to access them.

Previously, enterprise social networking on SharePoint required either extensive customization or the use of an add-on product such as NewsGator Social Sites. While still leaving room for third-party products to add features on top of the platform, Microsoft has now made SharePoint more of an enterprise social network in its own right.

SharePoint 2013 Hosting – ASPHostPortal.com : How to Enable BreadCrumb in SharePoint 2013?

How to Enable BreadCrumb in SharePoint 2013?

You must be remember the BreadCrumb option situated next to the “Site Action” button in SharePoint 2010 is really handy to navigate up or down with a single click. You must have noticed in SharePoint 2013 this option is removed rather hidden in the master. Here I will show you how to get that option back in your master page and make your life simpler.

The good news is Microsoft didn’t remove it from SharePoint 2013, it’s just hidden in the Seattle master page.

Step by Step

Open your site with SharePoint designer
Navigate to All Files -> _catalogs -> master page
Edit the Seattle.master in advanced mode and copy all the code
By default it’s not possible to edit the original master. To create a new one click on File -> Blank Mater Page
Check out the new master, edit it in advanced mode, delete all the existent code and paste the one from the original Seattle
Search for

<divclass="ms-breadcrumb-dropdownBox"style="display:none;">

Delete the CSS attribute

style="display:none;"

Two lines bellow change the visible attribute of the SharePoint:PopoutMenu to true
After editing your code it should look like this

<divclass="ms-breadcrumb-dropdownBox"><SharePoint:AjaxDeltaid="DeltaBreadcrumbDropdown"runat="server">
	<SharePoint:PopoutMenu
		Visible="true"
		runat="server"
		ID="GlobalBreadCrumbNavPopout"
		IconUrl="/_layouts/15/images/spcommon.png?rev=27"
		IconAlt="<%$Resources:wss,master_breadcrumbIconAlt%>"
		ThemeKey="v15breadcrumb"
		IconOffsetX="215"
		IconOffsetY="120"
		IconWidth="16"
		IconHeight="16"
		AnchorCss="ms-breadcrumb-anchor"
		AnchorOpenCss="ms-breadcrumb-anchor-open"
		MenuCss="ms-breadcrumb-menu ms-noList">
		<divclass="ms-breadcrumb-top">
			<asp:Label runat="server" CssClass="ms-breadcrumb-header" Text="<%$Resources:wss,master_breadcrumbHeader%>" />
		</div>
<asp:ContentPlaceHolderid="PlaceHolderTitleBreadcrumb"runat="server">
<SharePoint:ListSiteMapPathrunat="server"
SiteMapProviders="SPSiteMapProvider,SPContentMapProvider"
RenderCurrentNodeAsLink="false"
PathSeparator=""
CssClass="ms-breadcrumb"
NodeStyle-CssClass="ms-breadcrumbNode"
CurrentNodeStyle-CssClass="ms-breadcrumbCurrentNode"
RootNodeStyle-CssClass="ms-breadcrumbRootNode"
NodeImageOffsetX="217"
NodeImageOffsetY="210"
NodeImageWidth="16"
NodeImageHeight="16"
NodeImageUrl="/_layouts/15/images/spcommon.png?rev=27"
RTLNodeImageOffsetX="199"
RTLNodeImageOffsetY="210"
RTLNodeImageWidth="16"
RTLNodeImageHeight="16"
RTLNodeImageUrl="/_layouts/15/images/spcommon.png?rev=27"
HideInteriorRootNodes="true"
SkipLinkText=""/>
</asp:ContentPlaceHolder>
</SharePoint:PopoutMenu>
</SharePoint:AjaxDelta>
</div>

If you are using one of the themes from SharePoint your breadcrumb icon will not appear as it should, to get it back add the script below before the closing tag

<scripttype="text/javascript">
document.getElementById("GlobalBreadCrumbNavPopout-anchor").innerHTML='<img alt="Navigate Up" src="/_layouts/15/images/spcommon.png?rev=27">';</script>

Save the modified master page, check it in and publish the major version
Open your SharePoint Site, go to Settings -> Site Settings -> MasterPage under Look and Feel and select the new master page for the Site master and System master options
You will see a new icon on the left side of the menu.

SharePoint 2013 Hosting – ASPHostPortal.com :: How to Add or Remove A New User to SharePoint Group Using Powershell Script

How to Add or Remove A New User to SharePoint Group Using Powershell Script

In SharePoint site you can see usually a lot of groups. Sometimes administrator gets a task to add user to several groups. If it’s 3-5 groups you can do it manually, but if you need to add user to 30 groups? I’m too lazy to do it manually and too smart not do it at all.

Start your windows PowerShell on your computer.
Right click and select Run as administrator option.
Paste the below script on the PowerShell window and click the enter button.
Check your SharePoint site Feature will activated successfully.

So let’s start out PowerShell ISE and connect SharePoint CMD-let:

if ((Get-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) -eq $null) 
{ 
 Write-Host "Connect Sharepoint cmd-Let" 
 Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell 
}

Let’s enter site collection url, username for inserting to groups and get array of destination SharePoint groups. For example, let this groups contain a string “admin”

$url = "http://user"
$userName = "user\testuser1"
$site = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($url) 
$web = $site.OpenWeb() 
$groups = $web.sitegroups
write-host "------get array of groups which contain a string "admin"-----" 
$myGroups = @(); 
foreach($group in $groups) { 
if($group -match "admin") { 
$myGroups += $group 
} 
}

Go through each element of array and add user to SharePoint group

foreach ($gr in $myGroups) { 
#add user to SP Group
 Set-SPUser -Identity $userName -web $url -Group $gr 
 write-host "User " $userName "added to " $gr 
}

And if you made a false and, for example, entered wrong username, you can easily remove user from SharePoint groups with this PS-code:

foreach ($gr in $myGroups) { 
 $theGroup = $web.SiteGroups[$gr] 
 $theUser = $web.AllUsers.Item($userName) 
#Remove user from SP Group
 $theGroup.RemoveUser($theUser); 
 write-host "User " $userName " removed from " $gr
}

If you don’t want to collect these pieces here’s a full version:

if ((Get-PSSnapin "Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) -eq $null) 
{ 
 Write-Host "Connect Sharepoint cmd-Let" 
 Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell 
}
$url = "http://user"
$site = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($url) 
$web = $site.OpenWeb() 
$groups = $web.sitegroups 
$userName = "user\testuser1" 
write-host "--------------" 
$i = 0; 
$myGroups = @(); 
foreach($group in $groups) { 
 if($group -match "admin") { 
 $myGroups += $group 
 } 
} 
foreach ($gr in $myGroups) { 
 write-host $gr 
#add user to SP Group
 Set-SPUser -Identity $userName -web $url -Group $gr 
 $theGroup = $web.SiteGroups[$gr] 
 $theUser = $web.AllUsers.Item($userName) 
#Remove user from SP Group
# $theGroup.RemoveUser($theUser); 
 write-host "User " $userName "added to " $gr 
}

If there are non-english letters in a group name or if the group you need is on another site (but in this site collection), then you can have error on Set-SPUser command. In this case I can advice you to use another command $web.SiteGroups[group name].AddUser(user)

foreach ($gr in $myGroups) { 
 Write-Output "Группа: $gr " 
#alternative way to add user to SP Group 
 $theUser = $web.AllUsers.Item($userName)
 $web.SiteGroups[$gr].AddUser($theUser) 
 Write-Output "User $userName added to $gr" 
}
