In this article,how we can use the Ajax Control Toolkit in Sharepoint 2010.using this sharepoint designer and Visuval studio.

1.Download the Ajax Control Toolkit from this url Click here.

2.Add Ajax Control Toolkit ScriptManager in your master page.Open the Master page in SharePoint Designer.

•  First register the Ajax Control Toolkit namespace in the masterpage file by putting the following line at the top of the file     

                   <%@ Register Assembly="AjaxControlToolkit, Version=3.0.30930.28736,
                             Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=28f01b0e84b6d53e"
                            Namespace="AjaxControlToolkit" TagPrefix="ajaxToolkit" %

  <asp:ScriptManager id="ScriptManager" runat="server" EnablePageMethods="false"

 EnablePartialRendering="true" EnableScriptGlobalization="false" 

 EnableScriptLocalization="true"/>

Finally Add the following line in place of the above line to register Ajax Control Toolkit

      <ajaxToolkit:ToolkitScriptManager id="ScriptManager" runat="server" EnablePageMethods="false"

     EnablePartialRendering="true" EnableScriptGlobalization="false" EnableScriptLocalization="true"/>

Adding Items to the Welcome Menu in SharePoint 2010

Adding a new menu item to the SharePoint welcome/user menu is fairly straight forward.

Thanks to Sohels blog for pointing me in the right direction.

First create a new empty SharePoint project in Visual Studio 2010, call it "MenuItemProject".






Deploy as a farm solution and click finish.




Add a feature to the project. In the solutions explorer box, right click on the feature node and add feature.




Also in the solution explorer, right click the top menuItemProject node and add > new item.




Add an empty Element called "MenuAdditionElement".




Once added, open the menuAdditionElement > Elements.xml file.



Replace the Elements.xml code with the following:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
 <Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
   <CustomAction
   Id="myCustomAction"
   GroupId="PersonalActions"
   Location="Microsoft.SharePoint.StandardMenu"
   Sequence="1000"
   Title="Google"
   Description="Search away">
     <UrlAction Url="http://www.google.com"/>
   </CustomAction>
 </Elements>

Save the Elements.xml file and then in the solutions explorer double click on the feature1.feature node.




Ensure the MenuAddition Element is included in the items in the feature.





Deploy the solution to your SharePoint server.

Once deployed, refresh your site home page and the new menu item should be visible.

How to configure the target audience for a web part in SharePoint 2010 sites?

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2010 enables custom audience targeting for content and sites. The purpose is to define audiences and content that are relevant to a user or a group. As server or site administrator, you can define audiences and content for a specific set of users or group.

The following steps will teach you how to complete the configuration.

Step 1. Create two users in Active Directory which names are “test1″ and “test2″.

Step 2. Log in SharePoint site with the administrator.

Step3. Go to Site Settings>Site collection features, start the “SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure” feature, then go to “Site collection navigation” to check if “Enable audience targeting” is selected.

Step 4. Go to Site Settings>Site Permission>Create Group, create a group named “testinggroup” whose permission level is Full control, then add “test1″ to this group.

Step 5. Go to Settings>Site Permission >Grant permissions, create a user named “test2″ whose permission level is Full control.

Step 6. Now let me take our product SharePointBoost Password Reset web part as an example. In the web part zone click Edit web part. In the Advanced section of the web part tool pane add the “testinggroup” into the Target Audiences box and click OK.

Step 7. Log in SharePoint with “test1″ and “test 2″ respectively. You will see the difference as below.

When you log in SharePoint with “test1″, you will see the Password Reset web part, and when you log inSharePoint with “test2″, you will not see the web part. This shows we have set the target audience successfully.
