9. CMS templates and the SharePoint placeholder control

10. Page Content Content Providers are only interested in modifying this part of the page! Placeholder ImagePlaceholder Sample Page Layout  Layout defined in a Template based on a ASP.NET- Webform  Navigation Bars implemented as dynamic Web Controls  Placeholder for Page Content  Can be multiple Placeholders  Placeholder can have different types  Placeholder Content added during page creation  New SharePoint Document Placeholder Company Logo Left Navigation Bar Top Navigation Bar Copyright, Modified, … Placeholder HtmlPlaceholder AttachmentPlaceholder SharePoint Document Placeholder

12. The Microsoft Content Management Server Connector for SharePoint Technologies Adding SharePoint Library Files to MCMS Pages 1.Author creates a new page based on a template with a document placeholder 2.Author selects a SharePoint Library file to include in the page 3.MCMS retrieves the SharePoint Library file 4.Author submits the page for publication SharePoint Library file is included on the new page Microsoft Content Management Server 2002 Microsoft Sharepoint Portal Server 2003 Portal Site Product Page Home News Stuff Another News Story, and this one’s actually quite interesting. I hope you enjoy it. A Link Another Link CMS Author Console Document Placeholder 4 1 2 3

13. SharePoint Placeholder Control  Retrieve SharePoint library content and metadata and stores it in CMS SharePoint placeholder  Documents (e.g., Word, PDF)  Images (e.g.,.jpg,.gif)  XML files ( InfoPath and Word ML docs)  Provide UI for locating and accessing SharePoint content at authoring time.  Render document and properties based on style sheets at run- time.  Attachments  Inline display (for images)  HTML (for Word ML and InfoPath-produced XML files)

14. SharePoint Placeholder Object  Allow developer direct access to data stored in CMS placeholder in XML:  Meta Properties  URLs to the layout scripts (style sheets).  URL to the document copied to CMS.  XML content of InfoPath or Word ML documents.  Transformed version of the XML content (i.e. HTML).  Transformed version of the meta properties.  Why ? – enables template customisation without needing to touch the placeholder server control  Example – web service to access placeholder properties  Example – Modify the display behaviour for users

20. Exclude paths N.B. CMS and SPS (WSS) on same machine and one or more Internet IIS virtual servers are set as the entry point for both products.  The MCMS 2002 Connector for SharePoint Technologies setup application automatically synchronizes the WSS ISAPI filter exclusion list.  Exclusion list config tool (excludeCMS.exe) must be rerun:  if you add new channels  If you add more MCMS Web applications  If you add a new MCMS Web application that does not have a matching top-level channel, you must manually exclude the virtual directory from the Windows SharePoint Services path management.

21. Integration Scenarios  Scenario 1: Publishing WSS/SPS document library content to Content Management Server sites  Scenario 2: Publishing Content Management Server content within SharePoint Portal Server portals  Scenario 3: Using SharePoint Portal Server Search with Content Management Server

22. Create Documents SPS or WSS Server(s) Scenario 1: Architecture MCMS Content Authoring (with WSS installed) (includes placeholder server control & placeholder object) Attach Documents to CMS Pages WSS Repository MCMS Repository MCMS Production Environment Deploy the CMS site

23. Scenario 2: Architecture SPS Cluster SPS & MCMS Cluster NLB NLB Viewing requestsAuthoring requests (Needed for Authoring And viewing MCMS Postings) (For content not rendered by a MCMS Template, including The MCMS Page Listing Webpart, the SPS cluster can handle the request)

24. Scenario 3: Architecture MCMS Cluster NLB SharePoint Portal Server Search and Indexing Cluster Index Servers Indexing Search Servers Search query

25. Searching from CMS The search control on MCMS impersonates the Web application pool identity when querying the SPS Search Web Service CMS User Request Search Results SPS Search Web Service RightsFilter
