Let’s understand what is path first. In SharePoint you have seen some different types of site collection urls within same Web Application like : ·         http://sharepointDemo ·         http://sharepointDemo/subsite ·         http://sharePointDemo/Subsite/SubSubsite ·         http://SharePointDemo/Sites/Contoso ·         http://SharePointDemo/Sites/Contoso/SubSite These different kind of URL structure called path & you can manage these path as per you your organization hierarchy or architecture.

Managed path is this. Where you can manage site collection pa...

I was working on timer job & wanted to get data from sql server. To achive this goal, I add my database connection string in web application’s web.config file. Now I used the following code to get web.config setting from timer job : private string getConnectionString()         {             return System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["MyAppSettingKey"];        } But this code was not able to get the web.config file. Why? I started some R & D on it & found that Time Job runs under OWSTimer.exe & Web Application runs under W3WP.exe. As the context of  Both are different so we have to use WebConfigurationManager to get specific SharePoint Web Application configuration. private string getConnectionString(string webAppName)         {      ...

This  is SharePoint 2010 project for creating bookmarks for any item or document which can be a list item (like Custom list, Task list etc.) or a document stored in any document library. “My Favorites” works on Site Collection level. When you install My Favorites and activate the feature, You will get two new items in your Edit Control Block menu (ECB menu) called “Mark as Favorites” & “Remove Favorites”. When you click on “Mark as Favorite”, you will get a entry form where you can add comments for the current selected item or document. When you click on the link next to “Item Title” label, you can get a display form of the selected item. Add your comment here if you want. Then click on the save button and the form will close. When you click on the “Remove Favorite” item in ECB menu, you will get same form but with some different option like Comment will be read only and you will see delete button instead of Save button.

Basic Intro SharePoint Architecture Questions 1) What are Web Applications in SharePoint? An IIS Web site created and used by SharePoint 2010. Saying an IIS virtual server is also an acceptable answer. 2) What is an application pool? A group of one or more URLs that are served by a particular worker process or set of worker processes. 3) Why are application pools important? They provide a way for multiple sites to run on the same server but still have their own worker processes and identity. 4) What are zones? Different logical paths (URLs meaning) of gaining access to the same SharePoint Web application. 5) What are Web Application Policies? Enables security policy for users at the Web application level, rather than at the site collection or site level. Importantly, they override all other security settings. 6) What is a site collection?  A site collection contains a top-level website and can contain one or more sub-sites web sit...
