Should the navigation parts work on the home page of the Portal Server, currently it only works on sub-pages? On launching SharePoint I get the following error File or assembly name ASISPSNavigation, or one of its dependencies, was not found. I have a standard install of SharePoint and I used the automated install and yet the navigation seems to appear on fairly random pages – for example it is not on the home page but is on any child pages. There are also others it does not appear on. I have modified the default for the home page and it still does not appear. Everything was working perfectly and then… When installing the web part on certain administrative pages, the menu will render, but when you click to drop down or browse the submenus nothing happens and you get a JavaScript error in the status bar of the browser. How do I remove ASI Navigation? IFRAMES are causing "Secure Non Secure" errors. I noticed that these IFRAMES have no SRC attribute and that is what apparently causing the error. We would like to have drop-downs for the Home, Topics and News Areas, but not the Sites Directory. We do not want the contents of the Site Directory to appear in a drop-down when the user clicks on "Sites." How do we accomplish this? Why is my menu black on black? Does ASI Navigation include secure viewing? Can you sort the menu items? Is there any way of making the current area selected? By this I mean if browsing in any particular area, can I change the color of the item when it is selected? There doesn't seem any way of differentiating the current area menuitem from the others in css. Can I designate the starting point in the Area hierarchy for the menu data? After installation we received a JavaScript error in the status bar of the browser? Do you have some instructions on how to register the menu as safe?
I have installed the package by running the installer program. Everything seems to have installed without any problems.However, even though we have profiles on our sps box we still can’t get the web part to find any. It always replies “no matches found”. I receive the following error message when attempting to install? When using this web part I assume it pulls from Active Directory; however, some of this information on our users is out of date. They are either disabled or are consultants outside of the company whom we are no longer using. Is there a way to set which OU’s get pulled from Active Directory? I cannot perform an incremental import from Active Directory? How do I assign myself permission to perform an incremental import from Active Directory? How do we set up synchronization when using a (non English) language specific version of SharePoint? We have a SPS 2003 farm setup with 2 SPS servers and 1 SQL database. Server1 has Web and Search component assigned. Server2 has Index and Job component assigned. Should this webpart be installed only on Web and Search SPS server or on both nodes? When I do the search, I get the following error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.SELECT "DAV:HREF" ,"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:sharepoint:portal:profile:LastName" ,"urn:schemas-microsoftcom: sharepoint:portal:profile:FirstName","urn:schemas-microsoftcom: sharepoint:portal:profile:UserProfile_GUID", "urn:schemas-microsoftcom: sharepoint:portal:profile:WorkPhone" ,"urn:schemas.microsoft.com:fulltextqueryinfo:PictureURL" FROMPortal_Content..SCOPE() WHERE("urn:schemas-microsoftcom: sharepoint:portal:profile:FirstName" LIKE'shahin%') AND(("urn:schemas.microsoft.com:fulltextqueryinfo:Sourcegroup" = 'People'))ORDER BY "urn:schemas-microsoftcom: sharepoint:portal:profile:LastName"
Does TreeView support foreign language versions of SPS and WSS?
Should the navigation parts work on the home page of the Portal Server, currently it only works on sub-pages?By default the ASI Navigation should be available on all pages with the exception of several administrative pages (it can be manually added there). The most common issue we see when a web part is only partially deployed is the use of FrontPage to modify SPS. When FrontPage is used, the new templates are saved in the site database (referred to as ghosted). If you think any templates have been saved by FrontPage, please let us know there are a few options to correct this issue. For any page with FrontPage modifications you can either deploy the part in FrontPage (drag the menu web part onto the page) or run the SQL script below to reverse any FrontPage changes (this will undo any changes made by FrontPage).Ghost page remover script: Update Docs Set Content = Null Where LeafName = ‘defauilt.aspx’ And Content is not Null And DirName = ‘’ How do I remove ASI Navigation?The installation can be reversed by simply replacing the ASI templates with the original templates. The ASI templates are located in (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\60\TEMPLATE\1033), as well as, running the following command line script:CD C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\60\binstsadm.exe -o deletewppack -name asispsnavigation.cabpauseiisreset IFRAMES are causing "Secure Non Secure" errors. I noticed that these IFRAMES have no SRC attribute and that is what apparently causing the error.Versions of ASI Navigation prior to version 2.1 Hover Style had this problem. It is now corrected. Please contact tbandy@aperturesi.com in order to upgrade to the most recent version of ASI Navigation. We would like to have drop-downs for the Home, Topics and News Areas, but not the Sites Directory. We do not want the contents of the Site Directory to appear in a drop-down when the user clicks on "Sites." How do we accomplish this?Add the following entry in the web.config file located at c:\inetpub\wwwroot folder on your SharePoint server machine.add key="ShowSubSites" value="False" /If this does not produce the desired results please confirm/check the following conditions related to this part on your configuration: Verify whether you have repeated the appSettings section. appSettings might be already present in the web.config file and this leads to an error stating that the appSettings section is duplicated. Search for the existing appSettings section within the web.config file and add the above entry inside that section along with the existing entries and remove the entry you just added. This does not require restarting the IIS, therefore you can check the site immediately and test. Why is my menu black on black?This is most likely an issue with the style sheet that was installed before you installed the web part. To solve this issue, you need to copy the style sheet from the test server or clean SPS install to your production server. The style sheet will be located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\wpresources\ASISPSMenu\1.0.0.0__70fd9766c0804a1c\asinav.css Does ASI Navigation include secure viewing?The menu will only display the areas that the current user has permissions to access. Any area that the user does not have permission to access will not be displayed. Can you sort the menu items?The menu supports two types of sorting, alphabetical and the default setting which honors the order in which the items are set in SPS. If you set your areas to be sorted manually the menu will display the areas in the order they area set in SPS. Is there any way of making the current area selected? By this I mean if browsing in any particular area, can I change the color of the item when it is selected? There doesn't seem any way of differentiating the current area menuitem from the others in css.In order to represent the menuitem (area) which is currently selected with different color and/or font please follow these instructions: The appropriate CSS class to achieve this is ".TopMenuOverItem" in the asinav.css file which is located in the wpresources folder on your SPS server.Then copy the following CSS class and replace the existing class. You will note in this example t the selected area menuitem displays with a red background. Modify the background according to your need..TopMenuOverItem {color: #ffffff;border-color: #5987D6;background-color: red;padding-left: 10px;padding-right: 10px;padding-top: 3px;padding-bottom: 3px;border-style: solid;border-width: 1px;cursor: hand;} Can I designate the starting point in the Area hierarchy for the menu data?Yes the product allows for anchoring the menu on a specific site by simply conducting the manual install on the particular page you would like the menu to render from. After installation we received a JavaScript error in the status bar of the browser?This can be a sign of ghosting, if not please follow the procedure below. Insert the following code in the affected pages:<%@ Register Tagprefix="asi" Namespace="ApertureSI.SPS.Navigation" Assembly="ASISPSMenu, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=70fd9766c0804a1c" %>Also replace the following code:<div class="ms-phnav1wrapper ms-navframe" ><SPSWC:CategoryNavigationWebPart runat="server" id="HorizontalNavBar" DisplayStyle="HorizontalOneLayer" visible="false" /></div>With this code snippet:<div class="ms-phnav1wrapper ms-navframe"><asi:ASIMenu runat="server" id="asiWebMenu1"></asi:ASIMenu></div><div class="ms-phnav1wrapper ms-navframe" style="DISPLAY: none; VISIBILITY: hidden; WIDTH: 0px; HEIGHT: 0px"><SPSWC:CategoryNavigationWebPart runat="server" id="HorizontalNavBar" DisplayStyle="HorizontalOneLayer"></div> Do you have some instructions on how to register the menu as safe?Confirm/check the following conditions related to this part in the web.config file. If the trust level is set to "WSS_Minimal" reset it to "Full". Also check to see whether the webpart has been added under list in the web.config. I have installed the package by running the installer program. Everything seems to have installed without any problems.However, even though we have profiles on our sps box we still can’t get the web part to find any. It always replies “no matches found”.It is important to establish that you have created a people content data source during the configuration of the site, before installing Advanced Employee Directory. Please refer to the User Guide page 4 the “Before you Begin!” section for instructions on how to create a People content data source. I receive the following error message when attempting to install? You are more than likely trying to execute the ASIEmployeeDirectoryInstaller.exe file by directly from the ASIAdvEmployeeDirectoryForSPSV2_T.zip file. Please extract the ASIAdvEmployeeDirectoryForSPSV2_T.zip to a separate folder on your server and then try running the auto-installer ASIEmployeeDirectoryInstaller.exe file which is available in the extracted folder.
