SharePoint : OOTB feature to display the list of sites that the current user has access





Recently there was a request from a user to display the list of sites where the user has access rights. It took a while to figure out how to get it work. Here is how it was done :

Add Search core results webpart.

To display the all the sites that the current user has access :

In the results query option -> Fixed Keyword Query  add the following :
contentclass:STS_Site


To filter few sites from the the sites that user can access :

 contentclass:STS_Site NOT (path:http://yoursite1/* AND path:http://yoursite2/*)
To display specific sites if the user has access :

 contentclass:STS_Site AND (path:http://yoursite1/* OR path:http://yoursite2/*)

SDLC with ALM  Development is certainly the fundamental part of application lifecycle management. Once the business case is approved, the software development lifecycle begins. If we expanded the SDLC parts of the Development line shown in the figure below, a modern process would probably show software development as a series of iterations. Each iteration would contain some requirements definition, some design, some development, and some testing. This iterative style of development isn’t always appropriate—some projects are still better done using more traditional methods—but it’s becoming the norm in many areas. Once the SDLC process for version 1 of the application is complete, the application is deployed. For most applications, however, deployment doesn’t mark the end of development. Instead, the application needs periodic updates, as shown in the figure, and perhaps one or more full SDLC efforts to create new versions, as in this example. For some applications, the mon

Microeconomics of Samosa [SAMOSAnomics]

Image
An analysis of total satisfaction a consumer gets while consuming Samosas ( indian snack ). A consumer gets a diminishing satisfaction after every Samosa that he consumes. Over the few samosa consumption, his satisfaction level may be zero or negative. Following graph illustrates the scientific method of look at the addition and total satisfaction of a consumer : Marginal Utility is the additional satisfaction. Total Utility is the Overall Satisfaction. The Graph above depicts that when the quantity of the consumption increases the additional satisfaction ( Marginal Utility ) decreases. Overall Satisfaction ( Total Utility ) increase for a few consumption and starts decreasing. Finally the microeconomics principle - Law of diminishing marginal utility : The law of diminishing marginal utility  is a  law  of economics stating that as a person increases consumption of a product while keeping consumption of other products constant, there is a decline in the  marginal u
