Understanding People picker selection set

Hi All,

Many times we require setting properties on people editor control for selection set.

Some wants to allow only users to be selected and others want group also to be selected.

Well, here are options that you can use as property with people editor control.

User- Only peoples

SPGroup – Groups of SharePoint site

DL – Distribution list

SecGroup – Security groups

If you want to allow user to select for example user as well as SPGroup, you can use comma between selection set. Examples are shown below.

How to embed video in SharePoint

Hi All,

Sometimes we require adding video content to our SharePoint site. There is a very simple way to achieve this functionality.

All we need is Content editor web part to be placed on the page. Source of video file can be from same web application or it can be external source as well or video sitting on some shared drive of your network which everybody has an access.

Go ahead and add content editor web part.

Add following line of code.

<Embed
src="{URL of video / Shared Path pointing to video file}"
width=350
height=350
align=center
autostart=false
loop=false
quality=high
allowFullScreen=true>
</Embed>

See the output below.



And that’s it. You are good to play your video file.
