I had an issue recently where cookies were not being forwarded with the request in a 302 Redirect, but only in Internet Explorer. This worked fine in Chrome. The other interesting thing was that this was happening in an IFrame, the IFrame’s source was to a page that performed a redirect after setting a cookie. […]

The August 2014 Cumulative Update for Microsoft SharePoint is apparently not that cumulative, as it doesn’t contain every change of every component since SP1. But apparently Stefan Gossner claims it is (the official word on this is here: http://blogs.technet.com/b/stefan_gossner/archive/2014/08/19/sharepoint-patching-demystified.aspx). I had to read this article three times to fully understand why it’s cumulative. And it […]

EDIT: Upon closer inspection of the DBCC CHECKDB output, running REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS might not have actually been the fix. The restart of SQLServer service, or dropping the database into Single User then back to Multi may have done the trick. Try these two steps before doing the full DBCC. As part of a project I’m working […]

So it seems impossible to be able to create a new list from a custom list template (created in the UI and saved as a .STP file) using the client object model (JavaScript or Managed) – so in this particular project we got around it by generating a URL for the user to click onto […]

I’ve heard a little confusion lately about the use of the property “AllowUnsafeUpdates” on the SPWeb object and when it should be used. So I decided to do a little digging. According to MSDN, the definition of the property is: Gets or sets a Boolean value that specifies whether to allow updates to the database […]

Ok, so as partners, we are constantly faced with the decision of using either “SharePoint Social streams” or Yammer when deploying SharePoint to customers. The last I heard about this was from Jeremy Thake’s keynote speech at the SharePoint Saturday UK conference in November 2013. His guidance then was essentially: On premises (or otherwise self […]

So it seems that people are beginning to bear the ugly side of hosting solutions on a hosted platform (that you don’t own) – and that’s having the platform updated without being informed! This is all well and good, because the features that Microsoft control are continually being tweaked, and if they don’t work as […]
