There is an update available – on the same place – CodePlex. The project is still a small console application.

How to use it? Run it and follow instructions.

Perfect. So you create an AD group, add some users to that group and next you add that group into a SharePoint security group. Good. Now three months from now if somebody asks you to list all members of that group, what do you do? Remote to your Active directory and list (or printscreen) the group’s members.

Now thanks to my friend’s solution, you can tell them to go see for themselves. Robi Vončina has prepared a solution to list AD group members directly on your SharePoint site. It’s a nice solution to see who’s messing around your site.

The solution can be found on CodePlex.

If you’re working remotely or working with a server that has no CD/DVD drive, this might pose a slight problem.

You can avoid this in a simple way:

1. Rename the .img file into an .iso file.

2. Download 7-zip portable version and extract the executable to a folder on your server desktop.

3. Navigate to the extracted folder and run 7-ZipPortable.exe.

4. Browse and open (double-click) the renamed .iso file

5. You can extract all files from the .iso to another folder on your desktop

Now you can browse to that folder and run the setup of language pack with no problem.

If you have a custom template made and deployed to server and after a while you need to make a small modification, you can already be stuck with hundreds of subwebs using your custom template. If you make a change to the existing template, the change won’t be visible in the existing templates until you apply another theme and apply the same theme again to each of those webs.

Because this can be a painstaking job, I’ve composed a simple command-line utility to cycle through all of the webs in a site collection and apply default theme and reapply existing theme.

You can download it from CodePlex.

Usage is simple. Download it to the server running Windows SharePoint Services site you wish to reTheme. Open command prompt in the download folder and run command retheme http://site_collection_url.
