There might be times when you want to put more than one SharePoint filter web part on the same page and use them to filter information displayed in another web part (list). Editing the page normally in the browser will only allow you to connect 1 filter to a web part (or send filter values to).
An example might be a page with a list (e.g. contact details) containing many hundred items. A simple way of filtering this list is to insert a filter web part onto the same page and use it to send filter values (e.g. Product) to the list to reduce the number of items displayed. You might want to reduce that list still further by having another filter (e.g. City).
To be able to connect 2 filters, open the page in SharePoint Designer and convert the list into XSLT. You will then be able to connect as many filters as you choose under web part connections.
Been trying to figure out how many users were reading posts in various internal corporate blog sites. Having recently installed Nintex 2008 Reporting, I was confident of finding out this information.
A custom report pulled out the number of hits on Lists/Posts/Post.aspx in general but not the specific posts in question, like Lists/Posts/Post.aspx?=51
I contacted Nintex and they confirmed that Post.aspx hits are not audited, and as such “we don’t have that information in the Nintex Reporting data warehouse to be able to report on”. You can check this out by examining the SharePoint audit log for the blog site – Yep, no specific stat’s are recorded.
I guess for now the best I can do is run a custom report around the specific time a new post was published, but that would only be a generalisation. If anyone has got any better ideas I’d love to know…
