Quick Sharepoint Tip Regarding Lists and Links

Recently, a user said, "How can I bury links on the Quick Launch Bar under one link?"

 

Ever wonder how to do this without using CAML and without creating .aspx customized pages?

 

Here's how:

 

Use a List to show a List with Links:

 

1. Create custom list

-        Call it Projects

-        show it in quick launch bar

-        create a links column that is a hyperlink

 

2. Create custom list

Call it Desktop Replace Project

DO NOT Show it on the Quick Launch Bar

Copy the URL 

3. Go back to Projects List

 

            Add New

            Paste Link you copied

            Name it Desktop Replace Project

 

Repeat steps 2-3 for each project (aka link)

 

Viola! No need to create a separate .aspx pages!!!
