In our project we have a requirement to show birthdays and job anniversaries in the Newsfeed. The solution is simple (when you know it) but there has not been any information about it online, until today. I want to share a few lines of PowerShell code to enable Anniversary notifications in the Newsfeed. This desired piece of code was written by my colleague Emma Degerman. Enjoy:

[source language=“PowerShell”] $job = Get-SPTimerJob | ? { $_.TypeName -like “*.UserProfileChangeJob” } $job.GenerateAnniversaries = $true $job.Schedule = [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSchedule]::FromString(“hourly between 55 and 55”) $job.Update() [/source]

If you try to get comments quantity for a url, you may wonder, why there is only quantity of the comments which the current user has posted:

public int GetNumberOfNewsPageComments
        (SPSite currentSite, string pageUrl, int max)
{
    var serviceContext = 
            SPServiceContext.GetContext(currentSite);
    var socialCommentManager = 
            new SocialCommentManager(serviceContext);
    var comments = socialCommentManager
            .GetComments(new Uri(pageUrl), max);            

    if (comments != null)
    {
        return comments.Length;
    }

    return -1;
}
```The solution is to impersonate the SPSite object with an account who has the rights to manage social data. Give this permission to the account in CA - Application Management - Service Applications - User Profile Service.

Lägg till en kommentarruta i din sida. Gör det lite till webb2.0. Här finns lite info. På denna sida står det hur man kan lägga till webparten mha xml. You can even provision a social comment webpart like it is done in my site:

<File Url="person.aspx" Type="Ghostable">
