Keeping your on premise instance of SharePoint 2013 for development will make a few things much easier, and will alleviate headaches in the long run. For starters, make sure to have...

I will be sharing about using SharePoint Online public website, which you get with your Office 365 tenant, to host your web site. We'll cover some techie stuff but I will mostly cover...

This topic came up over on SharePoint.StackExchange.com, and I thought I'd share here too. You may want to setup a single page to view multiple calendars. Calendar overlay is a great way to handle this, but what if you want to see these side by side, and let the user navigate the dates in unison,... Continue Reading →

You give a guy an inch, and he wants a mile. Fortunately I love SharePoint and don't mind figuring out this fun stuff. Last week I posted on how to color code your timeline. That same colleague was grateful for the coloring, then asked if I can highlight late items in red. Obviously I said... Continue Reading →
Previously, I shared about how to create a color coded calendar, and then taking that calendar a little further and jazzing it up with some color. One issue that has been identified with this method, and using calendar overlays in general, is the fact that the events open in a whole new window. Not cool.... Continue Reading →
