I am working on creating a SharePoint 2010 site in which I have placed the content in wiki libraries. I want to have a feedback textbox on every page. On clicking submit, there are two options, I can store the feedback text in yet another custom SharePoint list or configure it to send an email.
Please guide me on how to go about adding the feedback textbox ?
thanks in advance
You can do this with the out of the box "Note Board" web part in the "Social Collaboration" section. You can add it to the page layout if you have publishing enabled. This will add it to every wiki page.
If you don't have publishing enabled, you will have to add the web part to each page individually.
This has the added advantage of leveraging the existing social features in SharePoint 2010. Meaning you will be able to see the notes you have added from your MySite and it will be shared with colleagues.

I'm using Sharepoint Designer (2010) to develop a series of connected lists.
I have a number of child-lists and I use the "DispForm.aspx" of my main list to add these 'children'.
Recently the DispForm.aspx has stopped opening in Sharepoint Designer. Clicking it from the list's main page goes into the Form view, but the page never loads and I get no error messages.
Since I can't see the Code window I can't make any changes, even though the page works fine in the browser and I can perform (limited) edits directly on the website through Sharepoint.
Has anyone got any tips on what I could try, or any way of accesing the code in DispForm.aspx if I can't open it in Sharepoint Designer?
Not a fix as such, but I got around this by mapping a drive to the sharepoint site and using notepad++ to edit the file directly.
If you browse the lists folder and the list you are interested in you will see the display, new, edit forms in there

I have a fresh installation of SharePoint 2010. Playing around with it I accidentally set the home page to a Document Store (I was logged in as admin). How can I reset the homepage to display the original options before I converted it to a Document Store?
I tried Site Actions -> Reset site definition, but that didn't help.
Solution
SharePoint does not allow site definitions to be changed. The page that allows site definitions to be selected ([YOUR-SITE]/_layouts/templatepick.aspx) says:
Template Selection A site template determines what lists and features
will be available on your new site. Select a site template based on
the descriptions of each template and how you intend to use the new
site. Many aspects of a site can be customized after creation.
However, the site template cannot be changed once the site is created.
To select a page to be the home page, navigate to that page and click on the Page ribbon. You will see 'Make Homepage' button in the 'Page Actions' section of the ribbon then, confirm the action in the pop-up prompt that shows up.
I am working with SharePoint 2010. I am looking for creating a custom menu that could be placed on Master page of my site collection. Could you please give me a start on this. I don't want to use existing menus on default master page. I would rather like to have my own master page with my custom menu links with sub menus.
A basic idea would be that I will have a XML file with menu items defined I want to give liberty to the user to make changes to XML file somehow that add/edit or remove the links. Also I want the menu to be user role based (Items could be disabled for unauthorized users).
I need to create alerts to group/all employees in my site.To my site home page basing on the data pushed into "custome list" by administrator in moss 2010 intranet site.So can any one suggest steps to acheive this.Hoping quick replys...
Create a simple workflow using SharePoint designer and send out alerts/notification emails to the users in the group when something happens in your list (like a costume worth more than 100 bucks is entered etc..). You can trigger this notifications workflow in many scenarios.
See this link.
Check out this video on how to create workflows using designer.
Having said that, if you need a pop-up or a message box to appear when a user visits the site (and ofcourse when something changed on your list) then you have to write code in the load event of the page/any web part on the page to display popup. SharePoint 2010 has Javascript API which makes it easy for you to display pop-up or you can do this totally in the code.
I want to display a list item in a different detail page, not dispform.aspx, not in modalbox. Page must be inherit site masterpage, layout page and must be in portal sitemap like publishing page.
Breadcrumb must be like this:
Company Intranet > Announcements > Product request formm updated!
Is there any way for do that?
Chaning the System Master to publishing master page will render all the forms with Same UI as you see in Home page.
You can change it in this Location http://yousite/_layouts/ChangeSiteMasterPage.aspx You have to do this in site where you what to see this change.
To Prevent the popup forms Go to List Settings->Advanced Settings and turn off the Dialog.
Also to change default Form of List you have multiple forms
Create a New Form (Link is for 2007 same applies for 2010 as well) in SharePoint Designer and Associate it to the List.
Use Infopath to create a Custom Form
Develop a new Webpart that will do Add Edit etc and Add it to the Default Forms.
