Setup Web Parts (v 1.0)

This guide is part of the Sharepoint Installer page

Setup Web Parts

This installs the web parts that are part of the SharePoint Connector for Confluence by installing a SharePoint feature to one or more site collections. As part of the install you will choose the site collections to which you are deploying the feature. To setup the web parts connector you need to execute Setup_WebParts.exe.

Welcome Page

After the welcome page loads, click the Next button.

Site Collection Deployment Targets

Choose the site collections within your farm that you want to have the feature. Typically this is deployed to one or more content site collections and will not be deployed to Central Administration or your Shared Resource Providers (a.k.a. Shared Service Providers). After selecting one or more site collections or web applications, click the Next button.

Installation Progress

During installation, the solution package is loaded into SharePoint and deployed to the targets selected. Note that all servers in your farm need to be online for this to complete. After installation is complete, click the Next button.

This last page shows a link to this documentation as well as links for each site collection you deployed to. The link(s) are basically shortcuts directly to the configuration for each site collection. From there you can define how the web parts connect to Confluence. See SharePoint Feature Configuration for more details.

Note that it may take a bit of time for the configuration screen to appear when you click these links because the web sites are being restarted.

Note that this page is not shown during an Upgrade.
