Block and unblock of attachment types in SharePoint

  In SharePoint by default few attachments are blocked and will not be allowed to be uploaded.
 If we want to allow uploading of blocked file type then we need to delete the file type from "Blocked file types".
Follow the below simple steps to allow block file types into your site in SharePoint.
  Navigate to Central Administration->Manage Web Applications->select desired web application->Blocked file types as show in figure below


And in the below window, remove the undesired file types from the blocked file types. You will now be able to add that file to your site.
Also you can add any file type extension you don’t desire to be uploaded. Just type the extension of file type you want to block in braces. Ex: if you want to block word document then type {.doc} in separate line in below window and click ok.

How to concatenating the columns in a SharePoint List?

How to concatenating the columns in a SharePoint List?

To concatenate the columns we have to create calculated column and we have to write the formula based on our requirement.

First create a calculated column

Create a formula as shown in below example to combine two columns.

Example:

I am already having two columns with name “YourColumnName1” and “YourColumnName2”,if we want to combine the both the columns we have to create a another column with calculated type and add the formula as shown below.


=CONCATENATE(YourColumnName1,YourColumnName2)

If we use this example, we won’t get any space between the “YourColumnName1” and “YourColumnName2”.

If we want to give any space between the two columns we have to use this below formula.

=CONCATENTATE(YourColumnName1,””, YourColumnName2)

$NewLocale = "en-GB"
$spSite = Get-SPSite $Site
#For all Sub sites
foreach($web in $spSite.AllWebs)
{
    Write-Host $web.Url "Regional Settings Updated"-ForegroundColor Yellow
    $culture=[System.Globalization.CultureInfo]::CreateSpecificCulture($NewLocale)
    $web.Locale=$culture

$lists = $spWeb.lists
foreach ($list in $lists)
{
#Only visible list under site contents
if(!$list.Hidden)
{
    # Enabling version   
    if($list.EnableVersioning -eq $false)
    {  
         write-host $list.title "Version Enabled for this site"

How to create result source in SharePoint

Result source is new in SharePoint 2013, using result source we can limit search results based on the search queries.

SharePoint 2010 search scopes are replaced by Result sources in SharePoint 2013.
In SharePoint 2013 provides 16 predefined results are given as shown in the below screen shot.



Local SharePoint Results are set to be a default result source we can also specify existing or custom newly created result source as default for a site collection or site.

To create a result source for a site collection.
Navigate to Site Settings->Search->Result Sources
Click on the Result Source there we can able to create a new result source.
In the General Information section Enter the name.
Click on the Launch Query Builder
By default we can able to see the screen shot shown below.
If you want to search only particular list items in our entire site using this result source.
In the Keyword filter “select only returns items” click on Add Keyword Filter.
In the Property Filter “Select the Path” Contains Manual Value Enter the List URL Click on Add Property Filter.
Click on Test Query we can see the Results Preview,
Keep the default setting as it is.
Click on Save.
Set as default resource source as shown.
Now if we search in our site we can get search results only in that particular list items in our entire site.

Moving User Profile Properties using PowerShell.

We created custom user profile properties in our SharePoint also we can check in our article How to Create Custom Properties in SharePoint.

 We want to move those properties to detail section in our SharePoint.
Using the OOTB feature we are moving UP by clicking the UP arrow, but some extend we are unable to move UP.  
There is way we can do using power shell.
Run the below script step by step.
Step 1:

$GetMySite = Get-SPSite <MySiteHostURL> #give here mysite url
$Getcontext = Get-SPServiceContext $GetMySite
$UserprofileManager = New-Object Microsoft.Office.Server.UserProfiles.UserProfileManager($Getcontext)

Step 2:
Here we can get all the properties with ID’s.
We can able to see our custom property with ID 5402.
When we are moving UP using OOTB UP arrow it was unable to go forward because of duplicate id will come when we are moving manually.



$userprofilemanager.properties | ft name,displayorder


Now we are  moving this to Detail section and also want to place after the SPS-Interests having the ID 5206.



Step:3

Now we will move the “Custom property test” after the Interests
We have to use only unique id so now using “5207"

$userprofilemanager.Properties.SetDisplayOrderByPropertyName(“CustomPropertyTest”,5207)
$userprofilemanager.Properties.CommitDisplayOrder()

finally reset the IIS once.

Now we can able to see the “Custom Property Test” in Details section without any issues.
