I have a list in a sharepoint site and i want to show different views of the same list to different groups of users. Is it possible in sharepoint 2010?
I don't believe you can assign a view to an audience through default functionality.
There is a solution though. Each list view is assigned its own unique url. You can take the URL's for each view and add it to the Navigation bar. You can then assign an audience to each of the links. This will allow a member of that particular audience to have a link that will take them directly to the desired view.
DISCLAIMER: This should not be used as a form of security. I believe if someone has access to the list they will be able to change to any view that they want.
For anyone else finding this, you can also add multiple views as webparts and target them by audience. I have not noticed any performance issues doing this. The only problem I have had is that once the webpart takes the view it does not update when the view parameters change.
I achieved this by creating another view. The default view which is the All documents view had users able to see only documents they have uploaded. Then the other view i did a view permission to show/hide view to specific users

How can I prevent that the default views are exposed in my Domino application? is there a special $$form for that?
It seems my application now and looses it web launch property
You can hide all views from web. If it's an XPages application, all views are accessed server-side so never need to be accessible from browser.
You can create a form called $$ViewTemplateDefault and leave it empty. All views opened from web (with for example the command ?OpenView) will then just display an empty page.
There are a couple ways to do that. One is with ACL entries. The other (which you refer to) is to create a form called $$View Template for [View name] For example, if your view is called All documents, the form would be called $$View Template for All Documents. Just leave the form blank, or put some static text on it ("Access Denied" perhaps.) You should also have one called $$ViewTemplateDefault which will cover any views you haven't explicitly protected.
I am designing a photographers website.
What i need to do is allow every logged in user to view -ONLY- his portfolio and no other.
Since i haven't found any extension that does that in style, i decided to use a general portfolio extension, and create a portfolio for each user.
Then i need to find a way so that when a user logs in, with his username/password, a menu-item will appear that will hold -ONLY- his portfolio.
So my question is, how can i do that???
Assign a single menuitem to a single user.
Thank you.
The only idea I have in mind is to use user groups here. Create the user, create the user group, assign the user to the group and assign that group to the object you want to protect.
If it's just about showing images I have another idea.
I build that user group specific handling into Event Gallery, a Joomla! gallery component: https://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/extension/photos-a-images/galleries/event-gallery/
Doing this make creating different menu items unnecessary. Once the user logs in he can see his content. In addition the content is protected. A simple menu item might not do that trick.
In my plugin I need to track when a user views an issue using UI. Ideally I'd like to know if it was opened directly, or was viewed in Issue Navigator Detail View. I need to track who and when viewed an issue.
What's the best way to do this?
Cheers,

The most straightforward way would be to use a Servlet Filter plugin module and scan the requested URL for those corresponding to issue views. You can generally distinguish between viewing the issue directly and a view from within the Issue Navigator by examining the query parameters.
Alternatively, you could also build a Web Panel plugin module that renders no significant UI, but which would always be invoked when an issue is viewed. You'd probably want to position the web-panel on the right side of the issue view with atl.jira.view.issue.right.context.
In either scenario above, you can fetch the current user from an injected JiraAuthenticationContext.
New to Backbone and wondering if any Backbone experts can lend their advice as to how to structure the following application:
Users log in to view the Dashboard. The Dashboard has 6 Panes and the Content of each Pane is determined by each User's Preference List (a Backbone Model with attributes panelone: contentA, paneltwo: contentD, etc...)
Above the Panes is a horizontal list of Content types. The User should be able to drag and drop the Content type over a Pane to save it and render the Content in that Pane immediately.
For example, if ContentF dropped on Pane3 then Pane3 saves ContentF ( Model.set('Pane3: ContentF' ) and updates itself with ContentF's template.
Specifically, How do I divide up this functionality between Router, Views and Templates?
Thanks,
AC
I can't consider myself a Backbone expert, anyway that's my two cents.
I suggest you to use Marionette, a framework built on top of Backbone that ease the things a lot.
You could setup your dashboard view as a layout, and each panel as a region of that.
This way you could update each panel's content without affecting the others and have all the events and stuff attached to your old view be cleaned up by Marionette's build-in memory management.
Also I don't think your router should be too affected by a change in panels content, it should just render the view assigned to that specific content, so it just has to be able to access the list model. Each of this views will have their specific template and that's all!
I had a look at http://www.westernaustralia.com/au/Pages/Welcome_to_Western_Australia.aspx and I know it's a SharePoint site and I am wondering how it could have been made.
I am mostly interrested in the center column (What's On). Is it an announcement list with thumbnails and Find out more links are pointing to wiki pages? Could it be a custom web part or is it possible to do this sort of thing with SharePoint 2010 out of the box?
Thanks in advance.
You can do this easily with a "What's New" web part. Customize your library view setting and set your webpart to use that view. Add a simple content editor at the bottom of this web part and add those other links like View All etc...
Remember that you can create your own list and make sure to index it so that it can rollback into the What's New webpart.
Looking at the emitted HTML it looks like a custom user control in the page layout to me (hell I could be wrong)
That said though it is possible to do this OOTB and I could build that functionality using the Content Query Web Part and some custom XSL
