Item Property Link in SharePoint 2010 Search Results

I recently had a project to bring additional information to a Search Results page in SP2010. I wanted to give the user an option to edit the properties of an item straight from a search results page. So I thought it would be a good idea to add some sort of “Edit” button to the property pop-up you’d see in an item library.

Let me document exactly what I did and get back to you.

Content Query Web Parts (CQWP) “New” Item Notification

One of my recent projects was to redesign (update) our internal home page with the functionality of SharePoint 2007. We use the home page to convey information to our employees about the Nuclear Industry, business news, organizational news, or other work related information.

Sure, why not. Lets pop on the page a few Content Query Web Parts (CQWP) and set the queries to pull what we need based on the business rules. *dust off hands*

But what if we need the users to know which item is “new” versus something that is much much older? We can’t have our visitors guess, we need some sort of indicator. SharePoint has that cute little icon appear next to the titles. Why isn’t this being display with my CQWP results!?

Well, let me show you how I did it for our Home Page needs.
