CAML.NET IntelliSense project

April 27th, 2009 Dominick Cosgrove No comments

MVP John Holliday has extended the wss.xsd schema to provide a rich CAML IntelliSense editing experience. By furnishing the out of the box schema with additional xs:annotation and xs:string, the IntelliSense now provides descriptions for each of the elements (from the SDK) and optional attribute values.

I highly recommend use this schema when developing your SharePoint features definitions.

The CAML.NET IntelliSense comes as an .msi installer to make your life even easier.

Thanks again to John Holliday

How to add a SharePoint WebPart to a group other than Miscellaneous

April 20th, 2009 Dominick Cosgrove No comments

By default, SharePoint web parts are always put into a web part group called “Miscellaneous”.

All you need to do is locate your Feature Element Manifest XML file and add a Property Element called Group and assign it a value. This is normally the XML file that is in your WebPart Folder.

Nice and easy hey… enjoy :)
