Here's some ideas...

Links to prominent/important subsites or pages in your portal.
Links to commonly used documents/forms.
RSS Feed of News from an external news provider
RSS Feed (or some other way) of the Weather
Your Share Price
Random or selected Staff profiles sourced from a list or from content in a 
sub-site.
Random or selected Site/Location profiles sourced from a list or from content 
in a sub-site.
Random or selected News stories sourced from a list or from content in a 
sub-site.
Some pretty Flash.

I think a random staff profile is honestly a REALLY good idea.
Perhaps even write a web part that picks one per day.  Depends on your
corporate culture, obviously.

RE: [OzMOSS] Search across multiple site collections

Maybe adding the separate sites to the crawling and indexing targets
might solve your problem?

Subject: [OzMOSS] Search across multiple site collections

 

Hello
 
We have recently introduced MOSS 2007 to the company and have created
several Wiki sites as different site collections.
 
If it's even possible, how can we configure Sharepoint to search across
ALL sites? Preferable the search drop-down box on each site would
include a listing of the individual sites plus the words 'All Sites' in
the event the user wants to search ian ndividual or all of them. Is this
possible??
 
The individual sites are controlled through Active Directory group
policy so naturally a user would only see the results from sites they
have access to see.
 
Great site and thanks in advance for any assistance.
 
Regards
Allan

RE: [OzMOSS] Portal Page content

2008-01-30 Thread Prior, David
Bill,

 

It really depends on what information you think is most important to
most of your users.  The home page should summarise the most relevant
content, and then allow your users to navigate to their particular areas
of interest for more specific information.

 

Out portal is made up of multiple Practices or Communities of
Interest which allow staff to contribute information based upon their
roles within the organisation, as well as areas they have an interest
in.

 

Our home page shows a summary of the following:

- Useful internal/external links

- Top 5 news items

- Upcoming Social Events calender

- Most recent internal Blogs

- Employee Lookup

- Quick Search

- List of available Practices to join.

 

Don't overcrowd the home page, after all, it's more of a welcoming page
to allow the user to get a quick glance of what's around.

 

Cheers,

 

David

RE: [OzMOSS] Portal Page content

2008-01-30 Thread Sezai KOMUR
Check out this MOSS 2007 internet website as an example - 
http://amanaliving.com.au/Pages/index.aspx

The home page randomly displays a staff profile under Spotlight On Our 
People, and it's linked to the individual staff member's profile page.

It features a different person with every refresh, only a subset of 3 have been 
selected to be featured randomly on the homepage though, all configurable via a 
site list.

[OzMOSS] Delete Web App

2008-01-30 Thread Greg Mulholland
I recently had a problem with a web app that i managed to fix by extending
it to another IIS site, the orginal still doesnt work but the new does.
The issue i have now is that the site,port and host header are now
different are now site2 port 81 instead of the orignal site1 port 80.

I have yet to be able to test but can you delete the web app that was the
first extended (site1) and then does the working one (site2) still work.
If that is the case i can then eventually use AAM to get my urls right etc
but i am unsure of this at the moment.

Also can anyone tell me how if i want to change the web app port or host
header or authentication can i do that without extending to another iis
site. I would have thought you could do it within the same web app.

Thanks

Greg

RE: [OzMOSS] Delete Web App

2008-01-30 Thread Craig Stevens
I think so. I've had to do this before. (Both of your questions) However
I've found the best way of doing this for me was as follows

Delete the site that is broken, 
Create a new site, with the port number and URL that you require
Detach the database for the new site via a batch command
Attach the old database to the new site.

I'm self taught to do with everything with SP, I've found sql studio
express, a free download to be invaluable  

Cheers
Craig
