This should be possible. But it isn't. Rename is greyed out.
Here is what I did.
I added columns.
I added a content type and added the columns to the content type.
Next I assigned the content type to a list.
If I go to Content Types -> my content type -> edit columns -> I can see all my columns but I cannot change them to required/optional or even change their display name.
If I click on "Administration Web Page" I'm being redirected to the ManageContentType.aspx page where I can indeed change a field from optional to required (for example). I cannot rename the display name though... but there's simply no such option in the web interface. But I'm pretty sure I have done that multiple times with declaratively deployed content types :)
Any ideas? SP Designer 2013 SP1.
Can't tell about SPD, but in webeditor (sp2013) you can go to ribbon->list->list settings and there rename any column.
Edit: ok, i've found how to do it in SPD: go to your list, on ribbon click Edit columns; then right click on any column and select Rename

I'm trying to create a new report (rdlc) and I'd like to use html (b tag). Unfortunately, the tag is ignored and the tag is rendered as is. According to my searches, there should be an option for setting the contents of a textbox as html, but i can't see that option in the designer.
Does anybody know if this feature is still supported. If so what am I missing?
Right click on «Expr» not at text box,
Choose Place Holder Properties
In Markup Type Section Select HTML - Interpreter HTML tags as style
OK.
If Place holder properties option not coming after Right Click then try to select «Expr» and Right click on «Expr».

I need a direct link from a list item lookup column (other column types might be correct I am not sure) to a document set.
At the moment a dialog opens and then I have to click open to then send me to the document set. This doesn't feel very cohesive and isn't the best for the user experience.
I have a custom list of 'solutions' and want to link to the relevant document sets.
Your 'Associated Documents' column should be a hyperlink/picture column, which will allow you to directly launch to whatever your URL is without a dialog.
I have downloaded Portia from (https://github.com/scrapinghub/portia) and installed Portia in my windows machine, while start Portia I can able to annotate the page.
I can able to select the fields and add name as I needed using create new option.
My question is how can we add default Fields names, so that instead of typing the name I shall be able select it from drop down box, and also it would be generic.
for example,
In the drop down i need list of field names like,
JobTitle,
JobDescription,
JobLocation
Can anyone help me, how to add the filed names by default instead of create new option.
Thanks in advance.
When you create a new field it will be available within the dropdown the next time you want to use it. You will only need to type it once.
If you would like to define your item, add fields and specify if they are required or if they vary, you can do so by opening the 'Extracted Item' tab and clicking on 'Edit Item'. This will allow you to add many fields at once without having to use create new while annotating.
To move an item between projects you can copy the items.json file from one project to another which will make all of the items from that project available in the new project.
Could someone suggest how to hide/disable HTML tab from your Rich Text Editor on sitecore?
I had a look at this, but requires a change on Sitecore core rich text XML.
Problem with this solution is we need to modify the XML for each instance and what about upgrades?
Thanks.
In the Core database (you can switch using the icon in the bottom right next to the clock) you can go to /sitecore/system/Settings/Html Editor Profiles/*profile you want*/buttons/HTML view and deny read-access on that for your users. Alternatively, at least in Sitecore 6.5, there's a profile without the HTML view. It's called Rich Text IDE. You can set the datasource field of a Rich Text field to that one, and not have the HTML view.
That's only removing the HTML option on the bottom left though, I'm not sure how to remove the Edit HTML option you have before you've opened the RTE itself (where you have Show Editor/ Suggest Fix / Edit Html). Looking at This question it might be you'll have to change the XML anyway.
The way we've got upgrades and different instances handled is by having the changed file in source control, and making sure we include it when building a deployment package.
Adding onto Trayek's great answer - you can remove access to the "Edit HTML" as outlined by Alex Shyba below:
Go to the core database, locate the field definition item:
/sitecore/system/Field types/Simple Types/Rich Text/Menu/Edit Html
On the Security Tab, click “Assign” and select the role you don’t want this option to be available to. Deny inheritance of this item or specify other security settings that make sense for your needs.
I added "Everyone" and then selected the "X" by Inheritance for Items, and the "Edit HTML" option was removed.

Anyone know how to edit the name of the Sitecore desktop shortcuts? I'm using the Advanced System Reporter module, and creating a desktop shortcut from there, but now I can't change the name of the item.
I know that you can right click on the Sitecore desktop shortcut and choose properties so change the information of the link....but how can I change the name of the shortcut?
The properties have a field 'Name', that even when I change it, the shortcut doesn't change (even after a desktop refresh).
I tried changing the 'Link' field on the properties as well, but then the link disappeared.
Do these exist in the core database somewhere? Can I get back the one that I just lost (by changing the Link field)?
Through further research, I found that for normal links, the name can be edited by right clicking the link, selecting 'Properties' and changing the 'Name' field.
Unfortunately, Links generated through the Advanced System Reporter don't update on the desktop when this Name property is changed.
It seems that the links for these desktop shortcuts are a combination of items in the core database and values in the User profile in the aspnet_profile DB table (also in core, but only viewable through SQL).
This value is stored in the PropertyValueBinary field, which, as the name suggests, is all in binary, and can't (or shouldn't) be edited.
One way around this is to:-
Create the desktop link, which will be called something by default (i.e 'SalesReport').
Open up the core database in Sitecore, and navigate to /sitecore/content/Applications/Advanced System Reporter/Links. Then find the folder for your username.
Find the item that was created for the link (in this case it'll be 'SalesReport'), and change the value of the field 'Display name' to whatever you want the link called (i.e 'Sales Report for May'.
Note: You may want to change the name of the item as well, so that it won't get lost in other desktop links created in the future and will be easier to find later. In this case you will need to:-
Go back to the desktop, right click the shortcut and choose Properties.
Manually change the end of the 'Link' field to the name you want to call the item (i.e change it from 'SalesReport' to 'Sales Report for May'.)
When you click OK, the shortcut will disappear. This is expected.
Open up the core database in Sitecore again, and find the item you're changing. (i.e /sitecore/content/Applications/Advanced System Reporter/Links/SalesReport
Change the name to exactly what you changed it to in step 2.
The link will reappear on the desktop, it'll have the correct name, and will be easy to locate in the Sitecore DB in the future.
