RE: Custom Site Def not deploying .aspx when used on diff Site Collection
Hi, Just to make sure I described the situation properly: Custom Site Definitions I have created by engineering a site, then using the SSG to export them to a VSS project work fine when used on the web application where the site they are based off was created, but on other web apps, they create ok, but the pages that should be deployed with them (eg default.aspx - exist on the filesystem, and are referenced in the onet.xml) do not get created. 1) Currently running on WSSv3.0 SP1 2) Next step to try is to build one up from hand - just trying to avoid this if possible. Have looked over the ONET.XML (shudder) and the pages themselves but cant really see anythign wrong with them. Also considering adding a feature to the sites that simply adds the pages to the site if they dont already exist there - but think this is ugly as it will mean the pages bcome ghosted, when I really want it to live on the filesystem as much as possible. 3) Same thing happens if I create a template from one of the sites, and then export that to .stp, import it on another web app - site creates ok, but the pages aren't there.

I created the custom def's by creating the site (lists, pages, features, etc.) manually, then using the SP Solution Generator to create a site def as a VS proj, then finally moving the necessary files from the generated VS proj into my overall VS proj. Strangely, the custom def's work fine on the site coll where I originally manually created the sites, but not on any others. I have attached a copy of one of the problematic onet.xml's Can anyone please shed any light on what is going on here for me??? Many thanks, nige New!

RE: Content Query Web Part display/edit mode problem
Is this roll-up on a standard document library? It almost sounds like it's filtering on the magical New! state of the docs.

I've got a content Query web part which was working nicely and rolling up content of a certain content type (and its children), no problem. However, now the documents have somewhat disappeared In the pages edit mode the files show, uses can access the doc lib, direct url to the document, etc. without a problem. I then created a blank page with a new CQWP but some result. Has anyone experienced like this before at all? Also Only newly created files show (since the problem started) in display mode.

Are these publishing pages? And are you using the template to create subwebs or root sites?

RE: Custom Site Def not deploying .aspx when used on diff Site Collection
Nope, not publishing pages (am using WSS) These are subsites that are being created, underneath the root site of a web application. Am starting to think there is nothing for it but coding up the def from hand, have a fairly good handle on the onet.xml now i think, so guess its not going to be too bad - as long as the sites work as expected at the end of it! If anyone can suggest anything, or knows a good way of constructing the sites (other then by copying an existing def and modifying to suit needs - this is what I am planning on doing) please let me know. In fact, does anyone know if creating a site template (stp) then opening it up as a cab, and using the files in there as a def (ie living on the filesystem) is an appropriate strategy??

Username issue
Hi All I have an interesting issue with a username. We use to have an employee, Rebecca Whatevername with the username rwhatevername, she's left and now we have A new employee Robert Whatevername, and his username is now rwhatevername. Problem: When using forms and I do a lookup for Rob, and click ok Rebecca shows up in the form -- bad. I went to delete Rebecca from the site collection, but it says it will delete rwhatevername. Will it delete Rebecca, Rob, or both? How would you do it?
