comment How to delete a content type part of an application feature?
Abandoning the problem because it happened in dev is not a solution for the original question

Muhammad, Even for videos hosted in SharePoint, I get the thumbnail on the newsfeed, but not on the search preview

I get the preview of the conversation but I don't get any video thumbnail either.

comment Youtube preview in on-premises Newsfeed
Yes Ali, I'm talking about embedding videos. Like I said, it works on my office 365 account, but not on premises. Can you confirm that it works in your on-premises farm, and if you had to do any specific configuration?

comment Reasons for not using Sharepoint in an organization?
And again, expensive when compared to what? Alfresco, the Java based open source alternative, will cost almost the same after 3 years of overpriced support. Oracle and IBM suites that try to be in the SharePoint space cost easily 3 to 4 times more. And check out the prices of dedicated solutions for some of SP functionalities. Documentum alone can be more expensive than SharePoint, and all you're getting is Document Management.

365 is very cheap. It might not be a good match for the business goal, but if a Small/Medium company cannot afford 365, they certainly cannot afford consultants to come in and develop an Hello World...

comment How can I list all workflows and associations?
This worked for me in 2007 [void][System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint") [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity]::RunWithElevatedPrivileges( { $site = new-object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($siteCollectionUrl) "Workflows Report" | Out-File -FilePath $OutputFilePath foreach ($web in $site.AllWebs) {foreach ($list in $web.Lists) {foreach ($wf in $list.WorkFlowAssociations) {"Web Url > " + $web.URL + " ; List Title > " + $list.Title + "; Workflow > " + $wf.Name | Out-File -Append -FilePath $OutputFilePath } } $web.Dispose() } $site.Dispose() });

comment UAT refresh best practices
Thanks a lot Kjetil. Nice setup you've got there. I see what you mean about the noise of having testers on the same environment. We're planning to do a Scrum/Kanban mix, hence the need to have testers as part of the flow. Good point on data confidentiality. I guess we'll need to take a better look at that. Great food for thought. Thanks again!

Thanks James. Not really thinking of content at this stage, just custom solutions portfolio. No content creation workflow analysed yet, but I guess that's another thing to consider
