I would like to customize v4.master in markup so that certain areas (Libraries, Discussion for instance) would not be visible. I tried deleting the placeholder and that didn't work. How can I hide certain areas of that master page?
Thanks!
There are clean master page it's name "Starter Master Page" .It's better to start customize Starter Master page instead of v4.Master
You can download it and learn more from the following link

Can I add additional links to the Shopify admin panel? (ie. under Apps and Settings)? It would be great to include a link straight to the edit HTML/CSS screen instead of navigating via Themes - '...' - Edit HTML/CSS. It will help speed-up the development process when working in the browser direct.
Its in the settings_schema.json. When you go to your themes, choose edit css/html, then find the config section on the left. Expand if necessary and find the file settings_schema.json. You can edit this file to create custom items that you can modify through the admin dashboard by choosing the "customize theme" option.
Basically, you can customize the customize theme area. :)
To address your specific situation, I would create a checkbox in the theme admin to enable/disable a link to what you are looking for. Then could code into the theme somewhere to display that link if it is enabled and other conditions are met. This is optional however, as you could just directly add this code to the theme as well without the enable/disable functionality, just makes it a little cleaner. I'm including the info about settings_schema.json to help others as well.
Summary:
In the admin dashboard click Online Store
Then Click Themes
Next Click the little ... button and choose Edit HTML/CSS
In the left column find the config section and expand it
Click settings_schema.json to edit the file and customize theme admin
Hope this helps someone :)
Shopify is a SaaS or fully hosted (cloud) solution. The admin panel can't be modified "out of the box". You could write a userscript (JavaScript injection) which would alter the Shopify Admin for you. Tampermonkey will help you!
Shopify has a pretty great desktop editor you can download, and directly open your HTML and CSS files in your text editor. When you save, the changes are automatically pushed live to the theme.

I'm new using SharePoint. I am having trouble with find the code or workflow structure of a list or a library. In the left menu i can see the "Workflows" button but all workflows are not there.
There is a workflow section In the "List and libraries" view showing the running workflows in these list, but when i click on one of them it just move me to its settings in the browser and no to the structure or code that is what i'm looking for.
Is there a way to find the code or structure of my running workflows?
PD: I am working in place of the previous developer who build the entire site, however, he didn't show me anything about.
Thanks.
If these are workflows created using SharePoint Designer then:
Open SharePoint Designer
Open the site
Click on Lists and Libraries
Click on the list name
There will be a heading titled "Workflows"
Click on the workflow you are wanting to look at
Click "Edit Workflow" to view it
Go From there
If you are wanting to see the status of a workflow in regards to the item:
Go to the list
I recommend creating a personal view (so only you see it)
You can select the fields you are interested in and each workflow should have a column in the list associated with it. Include the column in your view
Go to your new view and you can click on the link to view the current status of the workflow
Go to All Files > Workflows Folder. Then select the workflow you want to work with. Right Click on the "xoml" file then select "Open With" > "SharePoint Designer (open as workflow)"
Once it's opened, published it again. Then it will show up again in the Workflow tab.
The workflow was a visual studio sequential workflow deployed in the site as a feature. It was not a SharePoint Designer one. Thanks
I am helping a client correct a masterpage issue. I have close to no experience with SP2010 so I may be missing something simple.
The site is referring to a custom master page special.master. How can I find this file and edit it?
The masterpage is saved in the database rather than on the hive, so you can't edit the file just using VS2010 without first retrieving it from the database(and then upload it again). OR, you can edit it from SP Designer, as moi_meme has described.
use Microsoft Sharepoint Designer 2010 and find it in the masterpage library
see this video How to create a Master Page in SharePoint 2010 Designer
I'm trying to work out how to get sharepoint 2010 to display the quicklaunch on a web part page, the default.master trick I used in 2007 doesn't appear to work any more.
In my 2007 install, I simply edited the default.master and moved the quicklaunch code outside of the PlaceHolderLeftNavBar element but this doesn't have any effect in SP2010.
Thanks
A simple way to eneble Quick Launch Menu on WebPartPages is remove tags UIVersionedContentUIVersionedContent and PlaceHolderLeftNavBar using SharePoint Designer 2010.
See this article: http://denmartins.wordpress.com/2011/05/07/exibir-menu-quicklaunch-em-webpartpages/
If you really want to place another copy of the quicklaunch on a web part here is the steps
Using Sharepoint Designer 2010 go to your site and navigate to Master Pages -> v4.master
Click edit file copy everything in the <div class="ms-quickLaunch"> that should copy everything you need for the quicklaunch to run. For best result use the code view and hover over the quicklaunch and you should see the div, click on it and copy (Ctrl + C)
Now you can paste that on another web part page and it should work, I tried it by creating a new test page and it worked
You need to make changes in v4.master (in masterpage library), not in default.master.
For details on SharePoint 2010 master pages, please, follow this link:
http://sharepoint-sandbox.com/index.php?/Tips-and-Tricks/Customization/tip-80-sharepoint-2010-new-masterpages.html
Your masterpage trick on my SharePoint Foundation 2010 environment works fine.
Anyway, I don't think, that moving any standard code from placeholder is a good idea. If you want change position of quicklaunch menu, you should move the leftnavbar placeholder itself, including all the contents.
Placeholders are generally used to allow some pages, for example application pages, replace placeholder contents. So, if you hide the placeholder, and move it's contents out, these changes will be lost, and the standard menu will be shown. (and if you do not hide the placeholder, you can get two menus on one page :) )
Hope it helps!
I want to add some extensions to an existing Siebel application, but the objects which I need to change remain (partially) read only, despite I have locked the respective parent projects.
E.g.
Add a Menu item to the application main menu. => I can edit existing items, but I cannot add new items (Tool's menu "New record" is disabled.)
Add a custom applet to view "Sales Home Page View". It's read only (Warning displayed by Tools when I click "Edit web layout").
Any ideas, why?
Seems to be a bug in Siebel Tools. After a restart of Tools I was able to perform the desired changes.
