SPC11 – SharePoint 2010 Design Content Packs (Unreleased, yet) #SPC11 #SharePoint

October 8, 2011 1 comment

During a session being hosted by a rep from Sketchers (yep, the shoe people) – we were told that Microsoft is in the process of finalising Design Content Packs which will provide master pages, CSS and other design collateral for people wanting to re-brand SharePoint 2010.

They are expected during Q1 of 2012 and according to Sketchers (who I believe must have been involved in their development) they will be what ‘Themes’ (which are rubbish) should have always been.

I would hope that at the very least, they will be a good jump start for anyone looking to re-brand SharePoint.

As soon as they are released I will update this post.

SPC 2011 – SharePoint Network Topology Visio Addin #SPC11 #SharePoint

Twitter: @pcgriffiths

So as I’m waiting for my 12 hr flight home, I thought I’d start the process of trying to share some of the mountain of information I’ve acquired this week in California. Firstly it’s important to say that Microsoft and all the presenters did a fantastic job, it really was a great week.

This first item is very cool – particularly if you’re an admin/architect. How good would it be if you could render near to real time SharePoint 2010 Farm health information, directly to Visio – then publish it into SharePoint?

Well you can, with the SharePoint Network Topology Diagram Add-in for Visio 2010.

Using a combination of Visio Services, a SharePoint Timer Job and Visio 2010 you can make this happen:

Integrating #SP2010 and #PS2010–slides from the SharePoint User Group meeting #ProjectServer #MSProject #SharePoint #SUGUK #SUGUKEA #in

September 23, 2011 Leave a comment

Last Tuesday (20th September 2011), I was at the SharePoint User Group in Cambridge.

It was an excellent meeting with presentations from Symon Garfield (CTO – ICS Solutions – @symon_garfield) and myself.

As at the end of the meeting I mentioned that I would share my slides which gives me a perfect excuse to use Office 365 and the PowerPoint Office Web App.

As ever, if you have any questions you can use the contact form on this site to get hold of me.
