Latest SharePoint Video Diary Entry
Check out my latest Sharepoint video diary entry concerning the beginning of the Business Processes section:
Hi, this is David Wier. Welcome back to my SetFocus SharePoint video diary.
This last week has been really interesting since we’ve been learning about workflows. In my past, I pretty much knew what the word meant but I certainly didn’t know what it meant as a term within SharePoint. The section we started last week is called business processes and once again, we have two full books on the subject. Workflow seems to be an integral part of this section. And I know that earlier, I thought a SharePoint designer as just a kind of a free version of expression web. Now I’m learning exactly why it’s called SharePoint designer.
When working with a SharePoint site, you can connect directly to that site and change or create things like CSS files and master pages and just regular pages for that matter. Now we’re finding out that we can also do workflows on lists and libraries in certain sites. You can do many things with SharePoint designer workflows as simple as sending an e-mail to certain people when an item is added to the library, to digital signature retrieval, collecting feedback, approval and multi-step conditional workflows or even moving files from one list to another after approval. These workflows kind of scratch the surface of the built-in SPD workflows, but it can get fairly intricate within each workflow created. And when we leave SPD workflows, we’re going to get into creating visual studio workflows, giving its even more control over the process itself.
Well, that’s all for now. I’ll see you next week at pretty much the same time, pretty much the same place with my next entry in SetFocus SharePoint video diary.

Week 12 – SetFocus Video Diary
Check it out – my latest entry in my Setfocus Sharepoint video diary:
Hi, this is David Wier. Welcome back to my SetFocus SharePoint video diary.
This week we finished up book two of the web content management section. And we completed our project for the section. We learned more about the content query editor web part along with usage analysis reporting, presenting data in different ways, using sorting and filtering and aggregating information on the sites that we’ve developed. This project, this time, even included a section which applied to our current section but it required research on how to get it working. Along with that, the requirements we were given were much less exact so it required more in-depth project management thinking on all our parts.
All in all, this section actually stretched us further than before and instead of just learning details and reciting the facts back on the test as many test required in high school and college. Well, that’s pretty much for now. I’ll see you next week at pretty much the same time and pretty much the same place with my next entry in my SetFocus SharePoint video diary.

Week 11 – SetFocus SharePoint Video Diary
Check out my latest video diary entry:
Hi, this is David Wier. Welcome back to my SetFocus SharePoint video diary.
We’re really getting into the core of MOSS 2007 finally. This section gets into the navigation and the search area of MOSS which is very interesting. We’re learning how to effect the navigation of a publishing site in multiple ways, like having groups and ways to access the newly added links from different places within the site itself. This allows us to do customization of any tabbed areas at the site including the quick launch area. Along with that, we’re also getting into the search administration area. We’re learning how to modify the search behavior in a publishing site. How to add a search center and customize it. This allows us to set up a custom search results page and adding a tab to get to the page and even customize the look and feel of the results. I’m really looking forward to all the possibilities in this area.
Well, that’s it for now. So, I’ll see you next week at pretty much the same time and pretty much the same place with my next entry in my SetFocus SharePoint video diary.

Week 10 SetFocus Video Diary – WCM
Check out my latest video diary entry concerning Sharepoint WCM:
Hi, this is David Wier. Welcome back to my SetFocus SharePoint video diary.
Last week, we got into the web content management section of the curriculum, finishing out the first of two SetFocus books on the subject. This Master course has a lot of books for the different sections. We’re expanding our learning on creating custom site definitions by adding branding items like CSS and master pages to a publishing site. Basically, branding is just the customization of the sites so that the look and the feel of your site fits the look and feel of the brand of your company. This is available in MOSS 2007 which is Microsoft Office SharePoint Services. You create the look and feel through a solution and deploy the solution so it’s there whenever any new sub sites or pages get created looking the same as the rest of it.
The extent of which you can actually change the look and feel of the site using MOSS greatly exceeds that which is basic to Windows SharePoint services. This gets pretty complicated or at least it can get pretty complicated, but at this point, we’ve already covered the basics of creating custom site definitions and templates for a SharePoint site in the past. This section was just adding more possibility using MOSS 2007 publishing features.
Well, that’s all for now. But I’ll see you next week at pretty much the same time, at pretty much the same place, my next video diary entry.
