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.

If you need to add the work email of the Author (Created By field) user to a specific list it can be done by adding a dependent lookup field for the Author field: $site = get - spsite "site url here"; $list = $site . RootWeb . Lists [ "list name" ]; $createdByEmailGuid = $web . Fields . AddDependentLookup ( "Work e-mail" , [ Microsoft . SharePoint . SPBuiltInFieldId ]:: Author ); $createdByEmail = $web . Fields .

Update (); If additional fields are needed the same method can be applied. Here is a li

SharePoint 2010 - Enable and configure unique Document IDs
