Overview

Complete, Enterprise Taxonomy Management Solution for SharePoint 2007/2010!

KWizCom SharePoint Tagging Feature provides an extensive

taxonomy management solution for SharePoint-based implementations:

 Document Management

 Collaboration workspaces

 Portals

 Internet web sites

This all-in-one solution supports both Web 2.0-style tagging and hierarchical/structured categories.

(7)

Why did we build it?

SharePoint 2007 doesn’t provide any tagging/taxonomy management capabilities.

As for SharePoint 2010 – it does provide new tagging capabilities, but still has some limitations such as:

 The new taxonomy features exist only in SharePoint server, so SharePoint Foundation users don’t get any taxonomy management capabilities.

 No built-in ability to tag external web content (tag content located in other web systems in the enterprise)

 No support for tag-level permissions and approval routing

 No support for cross site collection taxonomy management

Component Localization

Every KWizCom component comes with a localization utility called "Resource File Editor" that enables translation of the component user interface to any required language.

The following section describes this utility and the translation process.

Resource File Editor utility structure

This utility displays the following dialog which enables the administrator to translate every displayed string (captions, menu items, user-messages) to the required target language.

Here you select the target language

The captions that should be displayed in your localized language

The default displayed caption for each string in English

All internal string names

(16)

16 The application displays 2 controls:

1.

"Select Culture" drop-down – contains a list of target languages.

2.

Strings grid – This grid contains all the strings displayed by the

component. The grid includes 3 columns:

a. Internal Name – This column displays the internal name of each string (read only).

b. Default Value – The default displayed value in English (read only).

c. Localized Value – The translated value in the selected language. This is where you enter the required translated value.

Once you finish translating all the component strings, click "Create" and a resource file will be created. This resource file will automatically be used by the component upon changing the user language on your server.

For example: In a MS SharePoint-based component - create a site using your required SharePoint Language Pack. The component will use the relevant language's resource file, according to the selected SharePoint site language.

(17)

Translating a KWizCom component

SharePoint 2007

1. On your Windows task bar, select:

Start->All Programs->KWizCom->SharePoint Tagging Feature web part-> SharePoint Tagging Feature Resource Editor

2. Select your target language on the "Select Culture" drop-down list. 3. Translate all the displayed strings in the strings grid by entering a

translated value in the "Localized Value" column.

4. Click the "Create"/"Update" button in order to create/save a resource file for the selected target language.

5. If you want to create additional resource files for more target languages, simply repeat stages 2-4 for each language.

6. Close the utility by clicking the "Close" button. SharePoint 2010

1. Go to: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\Resources.

2. Copy the product’s resource file:

KWizCom.SharePoint.WikiPlus.TagsSupport.TagFieldType.resx

to a new resource file, and add to its name the requested language’s suffix.

Example: to create a French resource file, copy the file to the following file name:

KWizCom.SharePoint.WikiPlus.TagsSupport.TagFieldType.fr-FR.resx

3. Update the copied resource file and replace the English strings with the translated strings. The translatable strings are located inside the <data name> nodes, in their <value> attributes.

Example:

<data name="btnAccept" xml:space="preserve"> <value>Accept Changes</value>

</data>

(18)

18

Use the component in your preferred language

All KWizCom components use .NET localization mechanism. This means that a KWizCom component will automatically use a language resource file according to the displayed application's language (this is true for all types of components).

content, located in any other system in your organization!

No matter where your web content is located – you can tag it

and easily find it!

Tagging Feature modules

Tags Field Type

By using this field type you can tag any SharePoint list/library items. The Tags field type enables contributors to tag items, Web 2.0 style:

Textual tags with auto-complete feature

(26)

26 Or connect content items to hierarchical, centrally-managed

(27)

The “Tags” field type behaves like any other column – allowing you to use the field in list views and filter items according to tags:

Tag Index View:

In this view the tags are listed and sorted alphabetically, for easier access to all tags.

(29)



Category Tree

:

In this view the tags are displayed as a category tree with parent-child relationships. This view also enables filtering tags by a tag name

(using a text box):

Text filtering enables you to display a filtered view of your taxonomy

(30)

30



Tag Menu

:

In this view the tags are displayed as a menu bar, easily integrated in SharePoint's Master page to provide logical, cross-site navigation by categories.

Tags Search page

KWizCom Tagging Feature is fully integrated with the WSS/MOSS search engine.

Once you click a tag/category it will pull up all content items (cross site & cross site-collection) that are tagged to the selected tag:

(31)

You can click on the item's title to see its details. Click on the

"Subscribe" link (located at the top right corner of the page) in order to receive email notification when an item has been tagged with the tag you selected, or when a tagged item has been modified by a signed in or an anonymous user!

Tagging Feature integration with MOSS's search results page

interface, which enables you to tag any web content, located anywhere in your organization!

Now you can use SharePoint to tag and search for external content with ease, according to your organization's taxonomy structure.

Tags Import/Export

SharePoint Tagging Feature includes an import/export utility that enables you to import/export taxonomies from/to CSV files and from WAND (Domain vocabularies vendor and KWizCom partner) XML files, into/from SharePoint tags lists.

You can now deploy the taxonomy you need, matched to your company's domain. Together KWizCom and WAND have enabled you to implement a taxonomy that includes thousands of tags/keywords in just a few minutes!

(33)

Tagging by anonymous users

The tagging feature supports Anonymous users as well, thus enabling the deployment of this complete tagging solution as a part of Internet web site.

Tagging from Microsoft Office applications

The “Tags” field type enables users to tag information from within Office 2007 applications.

Users can tag documents directly from the Office 2007 property panel:

Control new tags creation

When creating the “tags” column, you can enable or disable the option to create new tags, by checking the "Allow users to add new tags" checkbox:

(34)

34 This tool enables you to define a Tags field such that content editors are permitted to tag content but prevented from adding new tags or deleting existing tags.

Cross browser support

KWizCom Tagging Feature is compatible with Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. This makes it the perfect solution both for Intranet and Internet knowledge sharing solutions.

(35)

Administration Guide

The KWizCom SharePoint Tagging Feature combines three major components that, together, provide a complete tagging solution:

 Tag Cloud web part

 Tag Field Type

 Tagging client extensions

The following section will cover these three components, starting with the Tag Cloud web part:

Web Part Properties & Configuration Options

The web part's properties are grouped to 3 categories:

 Tags List Settings

 General Settings

 Display Properties

(36)

36

Tags List Settings

You can connect the web part to the tags list of your choice. If you desire, this tool enables you to manage several taxonomies in your organization.

 Tags list location – choose the list location from you current site, site collection or a remote site



Select Tags list – this drop down is updated according to the user’s previous selection (in the Tags list location radio buttons). The drop–down displays the tags list available in the selected location.



Select a list view – this drop-down displays the views available for the selected tags list. In Tags Tree mode the selected view will be used to sort and filter the displayed tags. This enables you to define various views to filter the displayed tags/categories according to business needs (show different tags to different employees in your organization).

(37)

General Properties

Various properties are displayed here, according to the selected display mode (tag cloud, tag index, tags tree or tag menu). Also included is the n option to run in advanced search mode to integrate the Tag Cloud or the Tag Tree in the MOSS search results page (more details on this in the next section).

(38)

38

Display Properties

This enables SharePoint developers to fully-customize the web part. The web part’s UI is based on an .ascx (web user control), enabling the interface to be fully customized by .NET developers. 'Display Properties' provides direct access to these user controls.

 Tags Cloud Template Url

 Tags Index Template Url

 Tags Tree Template Url

 Tags Menu Template Url

 Stylesheet - In this field you can customize the look and feel of the Tag Cloud web part using your own .CSS file.

The Tagging Feature uses the following SharePoint styles: Standard View Styles:

(39)

Index View Styles:

 .ms-iactionitem

 .ms-pagebreadcrumbs

 .ms-sitemapdirectional

To create your own style sheet, you will need to create a new .CSS file and to save it in the style library http://<ServerName>/Style Library/en-us/Core Styles.

To create your own .CSS file, follow the steps below:

1. Create a new .CSS file using the text editor of your choice. 2. Inside the file, be sure to include the styles used by the Tagging

Feature (those you wish to change). Example:

/* Standard View Styles */ .ms-navItem {

color:green;

font-family:"Times New Roman", Times, serif;

}

3. Once you have your CSS file in place, simply type the custom .CSS file's URL at the top text box (titled "Stylesheet").

For example, if you placed the file in the folder mentioned above, type in the following URL: http://<ServerName>/Style Library/en-us/Core Styles /[file_name].css

Errors

In this section you can choose to hide the error messages from the users or to explicitly display errors for debugging purposes.

(40)

40

Tagging Feature Management

The tagging feature includes a management interface that enables an organization's knowledge officer to define how the way the feature should be used across the organization.

The management interface addresses the following topics:

 Tagging Feature general settings

 Tagging Feature Tags List

 Adding the Tag Field to SharePoint lists/libraries

 Deploying the Tag Cloud web part

 Integrate the Tagging feature with MOSS advanced search

 Export/Import of tags using the Tagging client extensions.

Tagging Feature General Settings

In order to configure the general setting of KWizCom's SharePoint Tagging Feature, go to the root level site settings and click on the "KWizCom Tagging Feature Management" link located under "Site Administration Settings".

(41)

 Allow users to create new tags lists – checking this checkbox will enable users creating “Tags” list columns, to define a new tags list. If you want all Tags columns to be connected to the same central Tags list – you can disable this option.

 Subscriptions – This allows you to define an alert message that will be sent to users who subscribed for alerts regarding a specific Tag. Users can stop receiving alerts clicking the "Unsubscribe" link within the alert message.

(42)

42

 Tag Cloud Web Part – Allows you to define minimum font size. This setting is needed when the web part displays many tags which may cause the font size to reduce.

 Tags Lists – This table allows you to manage all tags lists available across your sites. Here you can manually add new tags/delete existing tags and manage child-parent relationships between tags (hierarchy).

(43)

Managing Tags Lists

Tags lists are lists that contain the tags used across all sites. By default, a single Tags list is created at the Site Collection level, allowing you to deploy and manage tagging at the site collection scope. When you manually add a new tag to this list you will need to fill in the following fields:

 Title – The current tag's title.

 Counter – for new tags inserted manually the value should be 0 (this value affects the tag’s displayed size in the tag cloud). WARNING: Do NOT update tags records manually unless you wish to add new or delete existing records.

 Alerts List – List of email addresses of subscribed users.

 Parent – defines parent tag of this tag. This is how you define tag hierarchy manually.

(44)

44

Adding the Tag Field to SharePoint lists

After completing the installation and activation of the SharePoint Tagging Feature, a new field type will be added to your SharePoint solution. In order to start using the Tagging Feature, you will need to add a new "Tags" column to the lists/libraries that you wish to tag:

(45)

The new field type has several properties you can configure:

 Tagging method – Choose "Textual tags" for Web 2.0-style tagging behavior (here users can write tags in a textbox with auto-complete functionality), or "Hierarchical category tree" to provide a "Browse" button enabling users to select categories from a taxonomy hierarchical tree.

 Render tags as links limit – if you have a very large amount of tags (thousands), you may want to limit the number of displayed tags, when a user clicks the “Show All” link below the

(46)

46 Tags field (in Edit/Add mode).

We have added this option in order to avoid reduced performance due to exceptional amount of tags.

 Allow users to add new tags – Choose "Yes" if you wish to enable users to contribute new tags to the shared taxonomy. Choosing "No" will enable users to use existing tags only.

 Source List – you can choose to connect a Tags field to an existing Tags list in various scopes (current site collection, this site, any other remote site), or to create a new Tags list. This means that you can deploy the Tagging feature for cross-organization taxonomy management (where everyone use a central, shared Tags list) AND for local taxonomies (on the department/team level).

 Sort & Filter items by view - This field enables defining a required filtering and sorting of the displayed tags/categories in the Tags field.

Integrate the Tagging feature with MOSS search

results page

KWizCom Tag Cloud web part can integrate with MOSS search results page to apply advanced filtering to your search results - supported in “Tag Cloud” and “Tag Tree” modes.

This provides faceted search functionality and can be integrated with the free faceted search add-on for SharePoint, available in codeplex:

(52)

52 f. Type “tagsfieldfor” and hit the find button. Add all properties to the

mapping. You will have to add them one at a time. (* if you cannot see rating fields in the list, make sure you have some rating fields created. If you do have a few rating fields created already you may need to perform a full indexing before you can select them in this window.)

g. Once you are done adding all fields, hit OK to confirm the creation of the new managed property.

h. You will need to perform full indexing of your SharePoint content sources before changes will take effect.

(53)

KWizCom Tagging Feature Client Extensions

The KWizCom Tagging Feature Client Extensions zip file (located in the product "download" page on KWizCom web site) contains the following tools:

 TaggingFriend.exe - an example application for client (including source code) that demonstrates how to interface with the Tagging Feature Web Service in order to tag external content.

FAQ

Why do I need the SharePoint Tagging

Feature?

Very simple:

When you rely on the SharePoint out of the box Search mechanism it is difficult to find what you're looking for – sometimes you don’t get the needed results, or you can get too many results. This is frustrating and precious work-time is wasted on finding content.

SharePoint Tagging Feature enables you retrieve the content you need much faster – no time wasted and no frustration.

KWizCom's SharePoint Tagging Feature provides employees with user friendly, effective tools to tag/categorize and retrieve content (documents, articles, tasks or any other piece of content).

The immediate outcome is greater productivity, time and money is saved!

Does the Tagging feature support hierarchical

category trees?

Yes, SharePoint Tagging Feature supports all types of content tagging:

 Hierarchical tagging – in this method a central hierarchical taxonomy is managed by authorized users and used by content editors who can select tags/categories with which to tag their content.

 Web 2.0 tagging – in this method tags are managed as a flat list of keywords. In the classical Web 2.0 "spirit", all users can

contribute to this central tags repository and those tags that are used most will be displayed accordingly by the Tag Cloud (they will appear larger, growing in proportion to their popularity).

Does the Tagging Feature support WSS?

Yes. SharePoint Tagging Feature works both with SharePoint Server 2007/WSS 3.0 and SharePoint 2010/SharePoint Foundation.

(60)

60

How do I create new tags?

New tags can be created in various ways:

 In Web 2.0-style tagging mode, any user can add new tags using the "Tags" field. These tags are added to the central, shared tags list/s.

 The administrator can add tags using the Tagging Feature management page.

 You can import tags from .CSV/XML taxonomy files, using the import/export utility included with this feature.

We already have a defined taxonomy; can we

import it to SharePoint?

Yes you can!

SharePoint Tagging Feature includes an import/export utility that enables you to import tags/hierarchical category trees from .CSV and XML files. You can also export the taxonomy from SharePoint to .CSV files, enabling you to move/copy taxonomy lists between servers and systems.

Can we use SharePoint Tagging Feature to

implement a central, cross site taxonomy in

our company?

Yes you can!

SharePoint Tagging Feature works in various scopes according to your needs:

 Site

 Cross site

 Cross site collection

 Cross system (!!):

By providing web service API, you can now tag any web content located in any system in your organization!

(61)

How do I delete tags?

If you have administrative permissions on the site collection - go to the Tagging Feature Settings page under the site collection setting to delete the tag/s.
