How to Remove Workspace Link from a Calendar


First, we need to provision a new calendar with our custom Feature:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Feature
    Id="AF8444FE-65D9-4ae2-BAD7-C39917871474"
    Title="Calendar without Workspace Link"
    Description="Installs a new calendar without workspace link."
    Version="1.0.0.0"
    Scope="Web"
    Hidden="FALSE"
    ImageUrl="Meteoriitti/Feature.gif"
    ReceiverAssembly="..."
    ReceiverClass="CalendarFeatureReceiver"
    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
    <ElementManifests>
        <ElementManifest Location="Lists.xml"/>
    </ElementManifests>
</Feature>
Lists.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">
    <ListInstance
        Title="Events"
        Description="Event calendar..."
        Url="Lists/Events"
        TemplateType="106"
        OnQuickLaunch="True"
        FeatureId="00BFEA71-EC85-4903-972D-EBE475780106">
    </ListInstance>
</Elements>
And the most important part of it, the Feature Receiver:

public override void FeatureActivated(SPFeatureReceiverProperties properties)
{
    var web = properties.Feature.Parent as SPWeb;
    if (web == null) return;
    using (web)
    {
        var list = web.Lists["Events"];
        var field = list.Fields[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkspaceLink];
        field.Hidden = true;
        field.Update();
    }
}
You can use the code for example in a PowerShell too, if you need to modify existing calendar. It seems like you can edit sealed content types’ fields’ Hidden property without errors. I also tried deletion, but it didn’t work. ShowInNewForm property didn’t have any effect either. Finally the Hidden property worked just fine.


Having then done that I realised that you could edit the Event content type to make it hidden across the entire site collection

Site Logo Not Changing on Web Part Pages

I tested and reproduced your issue in my local machine. Since the Web Part Pages would override the content in PlaceHolderPageTitleInTitleArea place holder, the site logo would not change automatically. So would you please try remove or comment the following control TitleBarWebPart: See the similar scenario and solution: http://emanonsolutions.blogspot.com/2010/02/left-navigation-webpart-pages.html Hope this can help.
