Welcome!
Welcome to this new forum, which is part of theSharePoint forums group that contains a comprehensive set of forums designed to cover all aspects of SharePoint Products and Technologies. I’ve held off on having these forums created for over a year because we already had ahandful of newsgroups in place, but the benefits (search, moderation, filtering, stats, flexibility, planned enhancements, etc.) and the recent surge in usage have convinced me that it’s finally the right time to embrace forums asthe de facto channel for community Q&A and discussion.
This particular forum is for topics about site design (i.e. definitions, templates) and page customization (i.e. layouts) as well as SharePoint Designer and similar tools. Before posting a question, please review the wealth of information on theECM Team Blog, theSharePoint Designer product page,Andrew Connell’s (MVP) Resource List, andShane Perran’s (MVP) blog. Also, trysearching for the answer within the SharePoint forums group or by using theSharePoint Community Search. Moreover, note thatthis forum is not an official channel for product support. If you have an urgent or business critical problem, you should contactMicrosoft Support Services.
Unrelated topics should go the other forums, and it’s very important for a topic to be posted to the correct forum because different groups of MVPs and product group people monitor different forums. So, don’t be surprised if your post gets moved by a moderator as was the casehere. Our ultimate goal is to provide at least a useful response, if not the actual answer, to every question within a reasonable amount of time (2-3 business days), but we are still ramping up, so please bear with us.
While much thought and planning were put into the creation of this and the other SharePoint forums, I believe that there’s always room for improvement, so please send your ideas and feedback to me (LLiu@microsoft.com) or post them in the relevant forum.
Thank you for being a part of the SharePoint community!
