SharePoint 2010 put back the "Set Up Groups for this Site" link

The "Set Up Groups for this Site" page has been, for some unknown reason, hidden in SharePoint 2010.

The page is still there and it can be accessed here:/_layouts/permsetup.aspx.

To make this generally available I created a custom action to add this to the "People and Groups: All Groups" (/_layouts/groups.aspx) page, in the Settings dropdown menu:


xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
< Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/" >
  < CustomAction Id="64f25e2b-f9fb-4e37-b848-5949603b03ab"
                Title="Set Up Groups for this Site"
                Description="Use this page to specify who can access your site. You can create new SharePoint groups or re-use existing SharePoint groups."
                Location="Microsoft.SharePoint.GroupsPage"
                GroupId="SettingsMenu"
                Sequence="1000"
                >
    < UrlAction Url="~site/_layouts/permsetup.aspx">< /UrlAction>
  < /CustomAction >
< /Elements >
This can a Site or Web level feature, depending on where it has to be applied.

SharePoint 2010 State Machine Workflow error: "Failed to Start Workflow"

I've been working on a custom state machine workflow for a specific content type. I've associated the workflow to the content type like this: < AssociationCategories > ContentType ; 0x01........ </ AssociationCategories > This workflow has a custom initiation form, in which I'm passing some options to the workflow. After doing the association to the content type I started getting the following error: "Failed to Start Workflow" After doing a bit of debugging and head scratching I found that in the  StartListWorkflow () method inside the initiation page in which the workflow association is retrieved from the workflowList.WorkflowAssociations list and it does not take into consideration the ContentType workflow associations. private void StartListWorkflow () { SPWorkflowAssociation association = this . workflowList . WorkflowAssociations [ new Guid ( this . associationGuid )]; this . Web . Site . WorkflowManager . StartWork...
