configuring a web part

here's the tip for today.... You know how when you add an out-of-the-box web part that requires configuration you get a nice little message in the web part display that you need to configure it, and a link to open up the toolpane? Add a Page Viewer web part to your site and you'll see what I mean.... Well here's how to add one of those links. This is really useful in exception handling for configuration related exceptions too....
In your RenderWebPart override check to see if your part is configured, if not output something like this:
output.Write(@"Web Part not configured: <a target=""_self"" href=""javascript:MSOTlPn_ShowToolPaneWrapper('1','129','g_" + this.StorageKey.ToString.Replace("-"c, "_"c) + @"');"" target=""_self"">click here</a> to configure<br>");

Sharepoint Allow Customization to users

A lot of people don't realize just how easy it is to create their own “Modify Page” link/button/whatever.... All you really need is something that can have an onClick event.... For example, here's a “Modify Page” button, drop this into a Content Editor web part, strip off the web part frame and you're done...
<input id="btnModifyPage" type="button" class="UserButton" onClick="javascript:MSOWebPartPage_OpenMenu(MSOMenu_SettingsMenu, this);" value="Modify Page" />
So simple, so easy, right? Now because this isn't the actually WebPartPages:SettingsLink web part it will not change text from “Modify Shared Page” and “Modify My Page” depending on the page view you're on.... For most users I don't find that a problem anyway, thus the button text here is “Modify Page” Nice and generic. The functionality is the same however, if a use has access to modify both a personal page and a shared page they can do both from this button..... The javascript command is the same in either case.

Sharepoint Tweeks and tricks

Is this even possible, some might wonder? Well it is, via querystring options on the command line:

Add Web Parts/Browse		ToolPaneView=2
Add Web Parts/Search		ToolPaneView=3
Edit Mode		mode=edit
View Mode		mode=view
Shared Mode		PageView=Shared
Personal Mode		PageView=Personal

So for example, say you wanted to edit the Shared view of the default page:
default.aspx?mode=edit&PageView=Shared
Say you wanted to Browse web parts and add them to your Personal view:
default.aspx?ToolPaneView=2&PageView=Personal
You can mix and match, and the order of the options do not matter....
Hope this helps

Overcoming Corruption: A Call to Personal Transformation

Dear brothers and sisters,

In a world tainted by corruption, we often find ourselves lamenting the state of affairs and expecting the government or authorities to eradicate this pervasive evil. However, as followers of Christ, we are called to take personal responsibility and actively work towards eliminating corruption from our society. Today, let us explore what the Bible teaches us about corruption and how we can be agents of change in this battle.

Recognize the Sin of Corruption:

Corruption, at its core, is a manifestation of greed, dishonesty, and the misuse of power. In Proverbs 15:27, we read, "Whoever is greedy for unjust gain troubles his own household." Corruption not only affects individuals but also damages families, communities, and the very fabric of society. We must acknowledge that corruption is a sin and a direct violation of God's commands to love our neighbor, seek justice, and act with integrity.

Transform Our Hearts and Minds:

True change begins within each one of us. Romans 12:2 urges us not to conform to the patterns of this world but to be transformed by the renewing of our minds. We must examine our own lives and root out any seeds of corruption. Let us cultivate integrity, honesty, and a commitment to doing what is right, even when no one is watching. Through prayer, Bible study, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we can develop a character that resists corruption and upholds righteousness.

Be Salt and Light in Society:

Jesus, in His Sermon on the Mount, said, "You are the salt of the earth... You are the light of the world" (Matthew 5:13-14). As Christians, we are called to be influencers and catalysts for change. We have a responsibility to expose corruption, challenge unjust systems, and advocate for righteousness. We must use our positions of influence, whether in our workplaces, communities, or even within our families, to promote transparency, fairness, and ethical practices.

Practice Social Responsibility:

Our faith in Christ compels us to actively engage in addressing societal issues. Proverbs 29:7 reminds us, "The righteous care about justice for the poor, but the wicked have no such concern." We must stand up for the oppressed, speak out against bribery and extortion, and support initiatives that promote accountability and good governance. By joining hands with like-minded individuals and organizations, we can create a collective voice against corruption.

Pray for Transformation:

Finally, we must fervently pray for the transformation of our society. Pray for our leaders, both in the government and in various institutions, that they may have wisdom, integrity, and a commitment to serving the common good. Pray for those engaged in corrupt practices, that their hearts may be convicted and turned towards righteousness. Prayer has the power to bring about supernatural change and can lead to a revival of integrity in our nation.

Personal Reflection:

I had to wait for almost 3 years to get a government document. But so be it. It decided not to pay a bribe. On another instance, I got my driving license first time by paying only fee for the form. and later I renewed it online and had to pay only Rs.40/-.

If you decide to refrain then God will support you.

Conclusion:

Dear friends, let us remember that combating corruption requires more than just relying on the government to bring about change. As followers of Christ, we are called to be active participants in the battle against corruption. Let us start by examining our own hearts, seeking transformation through Christ, and being intentional about practicing integrity in our daily lives. By doing so, we can collectively contribute to the eradication of corruption and the establishment of a just and righteous society.

May the grace of God empower us to be courageous agents of change in the face of corruption. Amen.
