Last Call: Hands-on, live online session using Mind Map templates with SharePoint

At 1:00pm EST today, I am delivering a one and a half hour, live online workshop for using MindManager Templates with SharePoint. This is a set of templates I’ve been working on for the past couple months that get your site design from 0 to 60 in less than five minutes.

For site managers, site collection admin, information architects or SharePoint consultants, this could be the best $89.00 you spend this month. You’ll get the entire set of templates and a hands-on walk through on how to extend them and create your own.

Here are a couple of screencasts from previous sessions to give you an idea on how the templates might be used. Also, you can view feedback from a previous session.

  2. Hi Mark,

    Thank you for the tutorial and templates, this technique is awesome.

    Question:
    How do you populate the Map Parts out of the .mmap template? Is there a .mmmp or .xmmmp file that I cannot find?

    Recommendation:
    Permission levels are usually associated with groups, not directly to lists. So a better example would be to have the list have a People/Groups subtopic where each Group Item has a permission level drop down. Or to be more readable, you would have a permissions subtopic with each permission level(Just the name, not a full copy) as it’s subtopics. Then each permission level would have People or Group Items. You could then use a relation to map back to the site collection level permission levels.

    Here is an image example:

    Also note that there should be a permissions drop down on the [Site] Visitors/Members/Owners groups as well as on the People/Groups objects.

    Thank you,
    Robert R Freeman

  3. Robert – Open the map with all of the examples on it. Open the map parts panel. Click a node that you want to turn into a template. In the middle of the map parts panel, click the link that turns the topic to a map part.

    Now you’ve have a way to break down the entire map into individual components.

    Regards,
    Mark

  4. Thanks Mark,

    I was hoping you had packaged it like the nice folder structure from the demo. If you get a chance, can you export the following folder to a zip file?

    C:\Documents and Settings\YOURUSERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Mindjet\MindManager\8\Library\ENU\Map Parts
