Sharepoint Calculated Column’s Formula Syntax changes by specific culture.

14/04/2011 Leave a comment

Symptom :

One of our customer complain that after migrate Sharepoint 2007 farm to Sharepoint 2010 farm and implement turkish language pack , calculated column of formula is not working.And Getting error The Formula contains a syntax error is not supported.

Solution:

Change the culture settings to previous language than see it will work. If you load Turkish Language Pack and define Religional Settings -> Culture as Turkish , Calculated Column Formula syntax has changed to use “;” semi colon instead of “,” colon. Because Decimal seperator is “,” colon  in some cultures like Turkish and this cause a conflict between Calculated Column Formule Syntax  Parameter seperator and Decimal Seperator.

For Example:

SUM(10.10 , 10.20 , 10.30)  it s working en-US as total of 30.60

SUM(10,10 , 10,20 , 10,30)  its working wrong  tr-TR as total of 120.

Here is the right usage:

SUM(10,10 ; 10,20 ; 10,30)

In Migration senarios you have to careful for culture differences between two product.

Happy Migrations..

Sharepoint 2010 Scrollbar not working problem when hiding ribbon

07/04/2011 Leave a comment

Symptoms:

When using SPSecurityTrimmedControl for hiding Sharepoint 2010 ribbon scrollbar is not working for users who denied to see ribbon.

Cause:
If you use SPSecurityTrimmedControl cover all divs that include the ribbon in masterpage , the page is not renders correctly. This is an incorrect programming situation .

Incorret usage:

<SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl ID="IncorrectUsage" runat="server" PermissionsString="ManageWeb">
<div id="s4-ribbonrow" style="display:none">
<div id="s4-ribboncont">
   <SharePoint:SPRibbon...
    Your ribbon
   </Sharepoint:SRibbon>
</div>
</div>
</SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl>

Resolution:
Use your SPSecurityTrimmedControl inside of divs which is already covers ribbon.

Correct:

<div id="s4-ribbonrow" style="display:none">
<div id="s4-ribboncont">
<SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl ID="CorrectUsage" runat="server" PermissionsString="ManageWeb">
   <SharePoint:SPRibbon...
    Your ribbon
   </Sharepoint:SRibbon>
</SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl></div> </div>

..

For hiding ribbon correctly you need to add extra scripting .

First to be sure jquery added your master page .

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://blog.bugrapostaci.com/_catalogs/scripts/jquery.js"></script>

And we add an extra SPSecurityTrimmedControl which contains javascript for showing ribbon to who have to see.

<SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl ID="st1" runat="server" PermissionsString="ManageWeb">
this text will be shown by only admins
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{
$('#s4-ribbonrow').show();
});
</script>
</SharePoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl>

and adding an extra attribute to cover div for hiding ribbon

<div id="s4-ribbonrow" style="display: none;">

Dont forget to save your master page and publish it.

If you dont want to attend too much you can download and use this tool for this.

Happy solutions …

11/02/2011 Leave a comment

When you try to send an email with classical way in WCF service which is served in sharepoint you probably getting an error. As a workaround, you have to set HttpContext.Current = null. it will use the right context .

Here is the example:


try
{
   using (SPSite site = new SPSite("http://blog.bugrapostaci.com"))
   {
       SPWeb web = site.RootWeb;
        {
            //Save context to temp variable than set null
            HttpContext tempContext = HttpContext.Current;
            HttpContext.Current = null;
            string MailTo = "admin@blog.bugrapostaci.com";
            string Subject = "Make it easy";
            string Body = "A message from Bugra";
            bool success = SPUtility.SendEmail(web, true, true, MailTo, Subject, Body);
            HttpContext.Current = tempContext;
        }
    }
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    // Exception Handling
}


Happy coddings...
