Deploying Multiple WSP Files Using Powershell
Becky Isserman
pI was playing around with some scripts today while I was working on an upgrade.  I didn’t want to individually write out the names of files in a batch file and I wanted to create a quick Powershell Script.  If you are using SharePoint 2010 you can use these lines of code in the Powershell Manager to deploy only .wsp files to your SharePoint 2010 Web Applications:/p p$dir = [directory]/p p$list = $dir | where {$_.extension -eq ".wsp"}/p pforeach($my_file in Get-ChildItem $list){Add-SPSolutio [read].

Come One Come All To Best Practices Conference
Becky Isserman
pWhy is it important you attend the Best Practices Practices Conference?  I can’t vouch for everyone, but I think my sessions will be great (and all the other speaker’s sessions as well).  One of them is something I’ve been working on in concept for at least 6 months.  This session is called strongBuilding A Rich Media Application in Silverlight/strong.  The second I saw the tools for webcam and video integration I thought how can we incorporate this into SharePoint?  How cool would i [read].

Best Practices Conference, Women in SharePoint, and Live Blogging
Becky Isserman
pI’ve been quiet lately for many reasons, such as SharePoint Saturday New York and heavy amounts of travel due to funerals and family events and life.  /p pSo I think a lot of you have been wondering what is this Women in SharePoint thing?  How does it fit into the community?  Well, there are five of us, Kathryn Birstein, Cathy Dew, Lori Gowin, Karuana Gitamu, and myself.  A year ago from this past June I wrote a blog post how I felt being a woman in SharePoint.  It feels great to live in [read].

Still Alivehellip;
Becky Isserman
pAs Glados would say at the end of Portal “I’m still alive…”.  I am around, but I’m just not posting as frequently as I should.  I am trying to get acclimated to my new job, planning SharePoint Saturday New York City and Women in SharePoint plus trying to lead a normal life doing normal chores and hang out with my boyfriend.  What does this mean?  Well I’m trying to cut back to one or two events a month, which will include Heartland Developer Conference, Best Practices Conference [read].

Dude, where is my list instance?
Becky Isserman
pI saw an MSDN Forum post today, so I looked for a ListInstance Hidden property in SharePoint 2007 features.  There is none, but interestingly enough there is one in 2010.  I wondered what would happen if you did this:/p plt;Elements xmlns="a href="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/quot;"http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/"/agt; br /  lt;ListInstance br /           FeatureId="00bfea71-de22-43b2-a848-c05709900100" br /           Title="Hidden List Test" br /   [read].

More Changes...
Becky Isserman
pStuff has changed drastically for me in the past two to three years.  I moved over 1000 miles from Saint Louis.  I go outside and I get up in front of crowds with less issues.  Now I'm changing jobs again.  I'm not really sure what to say here.  I was obviously unhappy and I needed to do something different.  So quit two days ago and I guess it worked out that I end with Bamp;R this Friday, then head to TEC and SPS Huntsville and a week from this Monday I start my new job at Gig Werks.  [read].

Strange Happenings
Becky Isserman
pThere are weeks we go about our life thinking nothing is going to change nothing will happen.  Then there are other weeks a billion things happen at once.  Friday started off very weird for me.  I flew into Atlanta and I met some cool people for another SharePoint event.  I had some good conversations.  Saturday then hit me and my virtual machine bombed in my presentation after the auto updater ran.  I was writing code on the board and describing everything in notepad.  I would say as pr [read].

MOSSLover Lives Onhellip;
Becky Isserman
pA while back, maybe 6 months, I got some bad news about 2010.  Microsoft was removing Office from the MOSS equivalent of 2010, so basically my alias would be obsolete the second 2010 caught on in the community.  I thought about it for some time.  I had some discussions with friends in the community.  I even noticed that the MOSSMan changed his twitter id.  I started my blog around a WSS 3.0 project when I worked for LRS in there St. Louis Office in February/March 2007.  So I think it’s [read].

SharePoint Saturday Huntsville in need of Speakers and Sponsorshellip;
Becky Isserman
pSo I’ve been to events with Cathy, Lori, and Laura.  They are good people.  Honestly, the best event I ever attended was SharePoint Saturday Ozarks.  I had a crappy week and I got there the actual day of the event.  Hanging out with the three of them plus Joy made everything so much better.  Then there was devLink and SharePoint Saturday DC and a few other events sprinkled into the mix.  I was going to attend Birmingham but the timing was bad and other things occurred.  Now I have the [read].

Where did my form go in SharePoint 2010!?
Becky Isserman
pSo I was working on an intro to development demo for the Central NJ .Net User Group and I found a few kinks.  I opened up a form to custom in InfoPath and Quick Published it wouldn’t work.  I imed my InfoPath guru friend, Lori Gowin, she said try to run a regular publish.  The form was still not showing up in SharePoint.  I could open it and it knew my changes, but it would just not render in a browser.  So I decided to create a form from scratch without using the button customize form i [read].
