SharePoint Navigation - jump quickly around SharePoint.
SharePoint navigation can sometimes be difficult for your users. Helping them to get to common and frequently used areas such as HR document or expense forms is the job of the Lightning Jump Web Part. This can save your users a lot of time as they are no longer searching and clicking to find what they commonly need.
See it in Action
We've produced 2 screencasts of the Lightning Jump Web Part in Action
1, A 60 second demo of how the web part speeds up SharePoint Navigation
2, A longer demo of how to setup and configure the web part and keyword list
How does it work?
As you type into the Lightning Jump Web Part you are presented with a list of suggested Keywords, once you have chosen your keyword and click go you are taken to the Keywords’ URL.
The Keywords can be managed using the Keywords SharePoint list at the Root Web of the Site Collection where you can add new keywords, manage and set permissions on the keywords. This enables you to have a seperate list of keywords per site collection. Alternatively you can have a single master list, and have the web part used in many different locations - but pull the keywords from a single manageable source.
You can also choose where you want the user to be taken if they enter an invalid Keyword, by default they are taken to the View All Keywords page where they are presented with a list of keywords which are available to them. You could however pass their search query on to the Search Centre or even redirect them to a Live.com search if you wanted to.
The View All Page shows the user all keywords which they can access, if their permissions do not allow them to see a keyword then it will not appear on this page. This means that you could set up some Keywords to take you to the administration pages of your site and only the people who have access can use the keyword.
The Web Part uses JavaScript so there is no need to have the Ajax .Net Framework installed to use this solution
