So here I am in Vegas - and for this Englishman it's a first time. I am here with some of the other Syrinx SharePoint team for SharePoint Dev Connections. One thing we immediately noticed was that each track had it's own registration and colored...
Site Definitions in SharePoint 2007
For many of our clients we need to build custom site definitions. When building SharePoint solutions the terms site template, definition and to a lesser extent site portal are often used. Each of these allows the user to create a new site with a predefined...
How to delete a MOSS My Site
Deleting a user's My Site sounds like it should be very easy to find, but in some ways it is hidden in the administration and management of MOSS. In order to delete another user's My Site you need to be an administrator in the Site Collection...
