* '''Save as Template URL:''' /_layouts/savetmpl.aspx
* '''Solution Gallery Solutions URL:''' /_catalogs/solutions
* '''SharePoint 2010 Won't Open PDFs''' - Select Manage Web Applications in Central Administration. Select the web application you want to change from the list and click General Settings from the Ribbon. There is a setting called Browser File Handling and by default it is set to strict.   This causes additional HTTP headers to be injected which in my case blocks the opening of PDF files. Switching that to permissive will allow things to function like they did in SharePoint 2007, specifically PDFs will open up in browser instead of having to save them.

* Turn on the Developer Dashboard by running the following stsadm command:
<code>
 stsadm -o setproperty -pn developer-dashboard -pv OnDemand
</code>
* In VS2010, can make the following changes to
** Elements.xml: change the <pre><Property Name="Group" Value="Custom" /></pre> to something other than Custom.
** Webpart.webpart (webPartIcon is 16x16):
<pre>
  <property name="ChromeType" type="chrometype">TitleAndBorder</property>
  <property name="CatalogIconImageUrl" type="string">_layouts/images/ContosoWebParts/WebPartIcon.gif</property>
  <property name="TitleIconImageUrl" type="string">_layouts/images/ContosoWebParts/WebPartIcon.gif</property>
</pre>
** Elements.xml, modify the URL attribute of File element to change the .webpart file name to ensure that it is unique. Do this by prepending the text value of "ContosoWebParts_" (ie Feature project name) to the beginning of the URL property value.
