2013 - Load script after Calendar view is done loading
I have a need to edit calendar items (remove the link so the user can't click on the item to change to the item's page), but it seems to load very late in the page load process, so I can't figure out how to get the jquery to run afteward. I made a new calendar view aspx file and added the following near the bottom:
<script type="text/javascript">
_spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push('removeCalLinks');
function removeCalLinks() {
alert("Alert1!");
$(function(){
$( '.ms-acal-title a' ).each( function (index) {
alert("Alert2!");
$(this).contents().unwrap();
});
});
};
</script>
what happens is the page loads, i see the frame of the calendar without the calendar items yet, I get Alert1, when i close the alert the page finished loading and then finally the calendar item shows up. far too late for the script to modify it. Any ideas?

SPD 2013 Inserting Actions
Hello,
I have created a list in SP 2013 and am now trying to create a custom workflow in SPD 2013. So I have an if statement setup basically if this field has this name I want it to send an email. I can get the If statement part setup but when I insert the action to send an email it does not get inserted. I tried to type it in and will not insert into the next statement after the if statement. If fact i can't add any actions into the custom workflow. I can add conditions and the Else if block. Please let me know what I need to do to be able to add actions.
Thank You
Public Facing Office 365 Site Design
Forgive me if this is not the correct place to be asking this question, the Office 365 forums didn't seem technical enough for this. I am trying to build a simple little site www.marcumweb.com is the URL if you need to see it. I want to have multiple blogs on there. How can I add more blogs? Secondly I want to have some photo albums on there. When I added the photo album app it doesn't allow that to be public facing, clicking the link for it prompts for a login. How can I resolve this?
Thanks.

Designing Forms in InfoPath via SharePoint Designer... an Issue?!
I have created a few forms (meta data in Lists) using InfoPath 2010 via SharePoint Designer 2010. I recently upgraded to Office 2013, and it seems that since upgrading, SP Designer will not allow me to continue editing/designing the List-form in InfoPath... How can I fix this?
White space generated issue while saving master page
Whenever i create a master page or a webpart page and make any customizations/modifications in and save the file, the Sharepoint Designer 2013 generates automatically white space in the file and saves the file. After sometime the file size becomes extremely large like (7-10 MB) . Is there any method/trick using which the space wont generate ?
I am creating the custom masterpage from seattle.master masterpage.
Is there a way to do this with SharePoint Designer?
I am attempting to make a small tool in SharePoint and I am not sure what I am trying to accomplish is possible.
I have a folder with documents and I want to assign a column to this list of documents which has all the names of all the people who need to read the documents. The names of the people that must read the documents depends on the rank of the document and the type.
My approach: I created a list with the names of all the people involved and assigned them a Rank and Type. Ex: Vice-President would have a Rank 4 and a Type Engineering... When a document is uploaded a user must enter in the Rank and Type of the document (done this). From there I want a column to be populated with the names of all the people in the list with the same type and Rank Higher than or equal to the Rank of the document. So when the other users go see the list of documents they can filter theyre name and find all the documents they must read.
Is this possible?
If not the users can filter the list of documents by rank. Is it possible to implement a filter to the list that uses a greater than operators?
Thank you in advance for your help

SharePoint Designer 2013 - Format Description
I'm having some issues with Designer 2013 workflows. I have worked through most of the idiosyncrasies, but one in particular has me frustrated.
When I create a workflow task, I have the option to set the description. No matter what trick I try, I can't get any formatting to stick, so the description ends up one long sentence. I have tried various HTML, building a variable with HTML in it, and other tricks to get carriage returns in, but nothing seems to work. So...something like:
Patient Name:
Patient Etc:
Patient Etc2:
Patient Etc3:
ends up being...
Patient Name: Patient Etc: Patient Etc2: Patient Etc3:
Any ideas? I don't know how this can be a limitation, as it makes the description almost unusable. Hopefully, I am just missing something.
Display another column for a lookup field with external content types.
When using a lookup field is it possible to display a column besides the identifier of the foreign content type. For instance a content type has an integer identifier and a field call "name". Could the "name" field be displayed instead of the integer id.

Error while executing web part: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
I keep getting this error message when I modify a list in SharePoint Designer 2010. I'm trying to modify a column and apply some conditional formatting. each time i do this, it looks fine in SPD, so I save and close. When I save and close I get the correlation ID errorm message. The other interesting thing is that this basically makes the view i'm working from unuseable. I'm also unable to make other basic changes in SPD to lists as I get the same problem.I looked up the log in ULS Viewer and it gave me the following:
Error while executing web part: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at System.Xml.Xsl.XslCompiledTransform.Load(MethodInfo executeMethod, Byte[] queryData, Type[] earlyBoundTypes)

at Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.DataFormWebPart.GetXslCompiledTransform()

Can someone else help me determine what Might be going on?
any way to clear filter on dataview webpart which is created using filter webparts.
Guys,
I am using 2 SharePoint list filter webpart along with an Apply Filter button to filter the contents of a dataview webpart which really is a dataformwebpart(DFWP) created by selecting"Empty Datasource". Filter webparts are configured to show "(Empty)".
I set webpart connections from the 2 filter webpart to the DFWP through parameters created on DFWP and the filtering works great except that there is not way to remove the filter, i configured filter webparts to show (empty) but DFWP is not intelligent to understand it and is still stuck on the last filter.
I tried this with XSLTListView webpart which is generated after selecting a list under dataview and it is intelligent to understand to show all the data when (empty) is selected.
Can anyone shed some light on how i can clear a filter on DFWP without tricks like refreshing or reload the page.
Thanks

Infopath Form, Sharepoint Form Library - Multiple Select Filter - Drivers Licences
Hi All,
I have the following problem, I was wondering if anyone has a non code solution for it that can be implemented inside an InfoPath form in combination with the use of a Sharepoint form library filter? I cannot figure out a solution.
Problem:
We have numerous drivers licence classes in Australia, C, LR, MR, HR, HC, MC - MC being the highest.
If you have an MC licence, your able to drive all classes below (HC, HR, MR, LR,C)
Same with HC, your able to drive (HR, MR, LR, C)
I need to create a Sharepoint Form Library Filter for this.
Example:
A user selects HR from a Sharepoint Filtered Dropdown, The library is filtered to display all records with HR and below licences.
Thankyou in advance :)

SharePoint 2013 OnLine: Is there a way to use workflow to copy a document set to another library to avoid the delay caused by the content organizer timer job?
Is there another way to immediately move a document set to another library in a another site?
Here is what I have done:
- Created send to locations in SharePoint Admin Records Management using the service: /_vti_bin/officialfile.asmx
- Enabled Content Organizer in both libraries and added specific content type to drop off library in target site as well as target library
- Created rule in target site to send specified content type to target library
- Process:
Create document set in originating library
When document set is ready, select it and sent to other location
The document set is then zipped and sent to the drop off library in target site - Overnight the document set is successfully moved to target library by the content organizer timer job.
Problem: I can't wait that long. Once document set is ready and the copy initiated, I need it to arrive in the target library within minutes.
Is there another way to achieve the same result without the time delay?
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. I am not a developer. Thank you.

I do have the service manager installed and the appropriate ports for the service manager are running in IIS. What else do I need to do to get the data and/or messaging layer to work?
Thanks for your help in advance,
