  • When a Feature Isn't the Same Thing as a feature

    Hopefully it isn't any sort of a great revelation to anyone that the latest versions of SharePoint (WSS v3 and MOSS 2007) have a lot of great new features, such as blogs, wikis, Excel Services, and many more.

  • Farms, Web Apps, Site Collections, Sites - what is configured at what level?

  • Activate features through code

    For a recent project I did, I had to activate a feature programatically. I needed some research to achieve this, so I thought I'd just put it in a post. It's only a few lines of code, so nothing hard to do here ... Basically, what it does is update the FeatureCollection object of a given Site...

  • Feature stapling

    One aspect of features I wanted to cover quickly is the relationship SharePoint Features have with site definitions.
