Quick Rant: We've all heard the wonderful things about Office 365 and the frequent updates that should be pushed out to it. These updates will hit O365 and SharePoint Online first and eventually, if decided, will reach on-premises. These updates are supposed to occur more frequently, per SPC14, and I of course ask the silly question... Continue Reading →
Come along with me on a small adventure into the world of free SharePoint. Yes, free! SharePoint Foundation 2013 is technically free (well, included in your existing Windows licenses) and can do a whole lot for you without needing to spend significant amounts of money on Server editions. I am going to walk through a mini-series... Continue Reading →

Here's a little nugget I came across, on SharePoint 2010 and 2013 (including O365), and was exceptionally frustrated with. There's a difference between IsDlg and isdlg. See it? Case sensitivity. Come to find out that means the world to SharePoint. I was tasked to setup a basic Page Viewer web part to consume a page... Continue Reading →

This was my first year attending SharePoint Conference, and it was a real blast. I picked up a lot of good nuggets from my trip, here's a highlight of my favorites: Pahhhtttaaayyy College was a long time ago, but it appears I still got it, or so I thought. My team from Boston spent a... Continue Reading →

last updated 10/7/2019 This one has been on my list for a while. I've used a collection of JavaScript methods to help streamline customizing forms in lists. I have created and compiled this little collection starting probably 5-6 years ago, and over time I'm constantly updating, tweaking, enhancing it, especially more so as of late... Continue Reading →
Big thanks to Chris Barbin on pointing me in the right direction for this one! Including a lookup in your project can be tricky, and I find that most developers revert to doing it programmatically instead of declaratively. It's easier to copy and paste some C# code than chase down issues around CAML. It can be... Continue Reading →
I promise there's more posts coming soon. I thought I'd share this comic from Incidental Comics... Kinda where I'm at... My best motivation is you, my readers and the SharePoint community at large. Expect some posts coming soon (I do have some time off around Christmas). Til then, happy SharePointing!
