This one really bugs me when it happens, and it’s pretty frequent. If you try to navigate to your Office 365 Settings or the Admin Portal in Office 365 with Chrome, you may well get this error instead of arriving at your regularly scheduled destination. I believe you may have a similar experience in Firefox…
I love SharePoint. I really do. I especially love writing client side code to build awesome applications for my clients. Today’s annoyance, though, comes while I am in the process of rewriting an application I built on SharePoint 2007, porting it to SharePoint Online in Office 365. This ought to feel like a huge leap…
If you haven’t been paying any attention, you might not know that I loathe the 5000 item limit in SharePoint. I may have mentioned it here and here and here and a bunch of other places, but I’m not sure. But given it’s there, we often need to work around it. I’ve written this little function…
Sorry it’s taken me a little while to get this post up, but I had a great time in Haarlem, The Netherlands the week before last at the Unity Connect conference. The conference is “under new management” – as it were – this year, and though I haven’t attended this particular event in the past,…
In October, Eric Alexander (@ejaya2) posted an idea to the SharePoint UserVoice called Prioritize large list management in SharePoint Online. Yesterday I received an alert about it because I had voted for it. 'Prioritize large list management in SharePoint Online' https://t.co/L1NQ0Gpsyc -> Status went from 'unlikely' to 'Working on it'! — Marc D Anderson (@sympmarc) November…
The other day, a client asked me a pretty classic set of questions about customizing SharePoint Online list forms. As with some other arenas of endeavor in Office 365, there is more than one way of doing things and it can be confusing. I am looking at options to customize List forms on sites in…
Yup, I’ll admit it: I’m confused. The launch of Microsoft Teams last week is what’s done it. First of all, from everything I’ve seen of the new tool, it’s really cool. I had some trouble getting my head around how to get it up and running in our Sympraxis Office 365 tenant, but now Julie…
At Microsoft Ignite in September, as group of us talked to Laura Rogers (@wonderlaura) about some top of mind topics. It was in the context of the harmon.ie Top SharePoint Influencers festivities, which meant that there were a bunch of people standing around with very strong opinions about pretty much everything. We answered questions like:…
By far the coolest thing I saw in the launch of Microsoft Teams yesterday was the Who-Bot. .@Microsoft Teams has a bot called WhoBot that acts as an expertise locator. That's YUGE! Classic KM problem – solved? Still need good data. pic.twitter.com/l0VmZDEBj1 — Marc D Anderson (@sympmarc) November 2, 2016 It seems to address the…
Those of you who know me realize that I can be a grouchy, cantankerous old cuss.:) But every once in a while, I have a good experience that I really should share so that people don’t think I can only be grumpy. Today is one of those days. But it’s a bit plus and minus….
