  • Source Code Posted for SharePoint Forums Web Part

    As I continue to cleanup my projects on CodePlex, I've posted the latest version of the source code for my SharePoint Forums Web Part . This is version 1.2 that was released in August (better late than never?). If you're interested in contributing/enhancing the project please do so. Right now I'm juggling...

  • SharePoint Forums MSI updated on CodePlex

    Okay, I've fixed the DWP error and created and replaced the MSI that was on CodePlex . Please download the current version from here if you're having problems adding the Web Part to a page (and don't want to manually edit the file). Let me know if there are any problems. God, it's been a crazy morning...

  • Adding SharePoint Forums Web Part to a page

    Okay, stupid error that I need to fix later today when adding the SharePoint Forums Web Part to a Web Part Page. When an assembly with SafeControl entries is installed in the GAC (like this version is) the DWP file requires that the <Assembly> tag is a fully qualified one (with the public key token...

  • Automating your Web Part builds (and distribution) with WPPackager and NAnt

    I’m just finishing up the packaging for the new version of the SharePoint Forums Web Part tonight and thought I would share with you some ideas and concepts around the packaging and distribution of it.

  • Installing the SharePoint Forums Web Part

    The biggest problem that I keep hearing about with the SharePoint Forums Web Part is installation. I think there is a flaw so that you will, almost always, get at least one error on security but with a page refresh this goes away (at least with all the tests I've done where I'm running as non-admin,...

  • SharePoint Forums schedule update

    Just a quick update on the SharePoint Forums project. I’ve moved the next release (v1.1.0.0) out to July 1st. It’s just too close to TechEd and I wasn’t able to actually get any work done while I was there (no surprise). The monthly iterations will continue, but they’ll start...

  • TechEd 2006 - Day 3 - Zappa does Zappa and change is good

    I didn’t get a chance to blog yesterday as it was a full day for me but here’s the recap as there were many things going on all over the place and the entire day is a bit of a blur (much like this blog entry is looking right now after 3 hours of sleep). I was manning the Technical Learning...

  • Performance fix for SharePoint Forums

    Okay, I’m human and prone to mistakes. I did a silly error when I released my SharePoint Forums Web Part in dynamically calculating post counts. I thought I was being smart by just using the value of the collection objects, trouble is that they’re all lazy loaded so when something like the...

  • Friday catch-up blogging

    I’m just going through a few hundred emails and RSS feeds as I do everyday and getting caught up (in addition to dusting off my workspace due to construction out back). I wanted to address a few things in the SharePoint Forums Web Part . First is performance. Some people have mentioned it’s...
