Awesome Free Tools


Sharepoint Permissions Manager

Functions

This works perfect on MOSS 2007 & SPS 2010 Servers.

This tool aims to bring together on one screen, most of management capabilities of permissions for an entire site: 
- Overall display permissions for groups on the Sharepoint libraries and website pages 
- Adding, modifying, deleting permissions with a few clicks without having to go through a lot of screens (using JQuery)
- Export as an Excel table permissions 
- Copy permissions between lists and pages

Planned on future version :
- Import / export permissions as XML (very useful in cases of misuse by the user) in order to quickly restore a configuration permissions


Once the Solution is deployed using the above tool, you can verify the Solutions in Central Admin >> System Settings >> Manage Farm Solutions

World Clock and Weather 1.0.15

The CKS World Clock and Weather web part allows users to display local time and weather for selected major cities from around the globe. Many of the weather and clock display settings are configurable. The weather information is fetched from the MSN Weather service at http://weather.msn.com.

The web part can be installed by running the setup routine.

The CKS team would like to thank Bamboo Solutions (www.bamboosolutions.com) for contributing this web part.

Release notes v1.0.15:

  • Fixed bug - Unchecking the "Show Weather" checkbox also caused Date and Time diplay to be hidden.
  • Fixed bug - Corrected problem with anonymous site users receiving error message
