SHAREPOINT 2013 – REMOVE THE SITE LOGO LINK

Today a user requested that I remove the link from the site logo that is displayed in the top left of the page.  I didn’t think this was possible until I had a dig through the code of the master page using SharePoint Designer.  I managed to figure it out and here’s how:
1. Run SharePoint Designer 2013 and open the required site
2. Locate the required master file and edit it
3. Locate SharePoint:SPSimpleSiteLink
SharePoint_SPSimpleSiteLink_1
4. Remove the two lines that open and close the SharePoint:SPSimpleSiteLink tag (in the default seattle.master file these are lines 360 and 362)
SharePoint_SPSimpleSiteLink_2
5. Save the master page

Following is a step-by-step guide that will show you how to create and deploy a web enabled form: 1.Open InfoPath (Start > All Programs > Microsoft Offic...

Search stops working and Central admin Search screens error

Problem: In my redundant Search farm, search falls over.  It was working, nothing appears to of changed but it suddenly stops working.  This problem has caused itself to surface in several places: 1. In  Central Admin going to "Search Administration" displays the following error message:  Search Application Topology - Unable to retrieve topology component health states.
