Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue
Colin GardnerKaboodle Software
New
It’s a game of 4 halves!Old Borrowe
d
Blue
SP2010 Lets you switch user identity interactivelySP2013 Removes this capability (exactly why is open to debate)
But as any developer will tell you it’s an indispensable feature when testingSo we put it back!
Something Borrowed
It’s borrowed because it’s just linking to an existing application page
Alt Logindemonstration
Alt Login is completely freeDownload from http://www.kaboodlekonnect.com/downloads/2013
Install the version at a scope that suits your needsYou’ll never find a solution simpler than this oneThe latest version now works with Google ChromeGive us some feedback
Alt Login – in Summary
Kaboodle Image Slide Shower (KISS)Yet another Image Rotator - just what the world needs!Well yes actually:• If you want one that works with SharePoint Online• That uses HTML 5 only (no reliance on JavaScript libraries)• That has dynamic content that is pulled from SharePoint lists• That links to external content and documents• That can cache data so that it will work with anonymous users• That uses the SP2013 call out framework• That can auto rotate on a schedule or user click or both• That can exploit hundreds of transitions and fades• Oh, and its totally free (or will be)!
Something Old
It’s an Ad Rotator but not as we know it
KISSdemonstration
Yes, KISS is another image rotator but one that’s driven my SharePoint list data fieldsIt’s HTML 5 not JQuery but that means that a modern browser is needed, IE9+ It’s SP2013 only and was specifically designed for operation with public facing website in SPO It’s not released yet but when it is it will be completely freeIf anyone is interested in trialling the beta please let me know
KISS– in Summary
Kaboodle RenditionsNew, in the sense that no one else is quite doing thisRenditions is a family of 5 productsToday, we’ll just look at Convertor and Word to Wiki
Something New

Utility
Retention/Disposal

No authorshipWide distributionEmphasis on sharing and use(above the line)
No authorshipRestricted distributionEmphasis on preservation(beyond the line)
Renditionsdemonstration
Renditions Converter Takes source Word DocumentsConverts them individually or in balk to various output formats (PDF, XPS, TIFF, ePUB, DOCX)Can map metadataCan publish to the same farm, a remote farm or to O365Can automatically updateCan automatically deleteSmooths and automates the transition from Production to Utility
Wikis: The Good the Bad and the Ugly(Wikis in general and SharePoint Wikis Specifically)The Good• Quick and ready
access• Easy search• Easy cross linking• Decentralised
authorship• More dynamic• Great for tacit
knowledge
The Bad• Got to learn the
syntax• Easy to change
means easy to make errors
• Cross linking within the same library only
• OOTB no self cross referencing
• OOTB no TOC• Decentralised
authorship might not fit with the business culture
The Ugly• The authoring
experience is disappointing
• Too often the need to hand craft HTML
• Importing existing content is just plain nasty
• Need to upload (or otherwise make linkable embedded content e.g. images)
Wikis: Conclusions(Wikis in general and SharePoint Wikis Specifically)
• Don’t take on a battle you cannot win!• Let users create content using tools they
are comfortable with (meaning Word for the most part)
• Make it a technical problem not the user’s problem
• If the wiki is for content presentation make it read only – although comments and feedback is cool
• Make the wiki self generating

Renditions Word to Wiki
Takes source Word Documents in SharePoint librariesPublish them as SharePoint wiki web pages automatically or on demandStrips out images, saves them to SharePoint and automatically stitches back up the HTMLCan map metadata, automatically deleteCan publish to the same farm, a remote farm or to O365Can set things up so that authors have nothing to do other than keep the source Word documents up to dateGreat for sharing specific content with partners or the public.
A family of 5 products that convert Word documents and archive or replicate documents of any typeIs a commercial product but has a free unlimited trialWord to Wiki is the only product (I know of) that:• Converts Word documents to SharePoint Wiki pages without pain• Can automated conversion process• Works cross farm and to SPO/O365 with zero footprint at the target

Something Blue
AMSdemonstration
AMS The OOTB navigation elements can sometimes be rather restrictiveNo global navigation, even the new MMS driven navigation is limited to the site collectionWeb site navigation limitations• Left navigation width issues• Tree node issues• No control over tree view• Quick links is only 2 levelsDelegate controls are the a super cool way of replacing the OOTB controls you don’t like with ones that you do likeDeployed as a Feature and so can be switched on or off as neededZero impact on the master page
