Fixing SharePoint

It was really simple at the end, but it took my whole day for writing the utility to achieve the desired results. However, the tricky part of the utility was how i can move the items to a sub folder of the list. For example there is a folder 2014 and it contains 12 folders of each month. You want to move the item inside a folder. Keep in mind the hierarchy of SharePoint. Follow below steps. 1. Get SPWeb 2. Get SPList 3. Get List Folders 4. Get Sub Folders of Folders 5. Copy the Item I have divided the steps into Methods. Code below. Get Site,Web and list Objects and Passing them to a method InsertItemIntoFolder. using (SPSite site = new SPSite( "Your Site URL" )) {     using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb())     {         SPList sourceList = web.Lists.TryGetList( "Your List Name" );         List < Guid > IID = new List < G...

I got a utility with the help of one of my colleague to find w here is a custom web part used in SharePoint page? Download the utility from the below link. http://wikisend.com/download/302420/WebPart Finding Utility.zip 1. Open CMD 2. Navigate the path where you have placed the utility 3. Run Utilityname.exe sitecollectionURL nameofthewebpart       GetWP.exe  http:// test.contoso.com   view Where GetWP.exe is the utility name, http://test.contoso.com is the site collection URL and View is the name of the webpart. Full name is not necessary for webpart, you can use any sub string of the name. eg. listviewrollup = view Hope it helps someone. Thank You
