PowerShell.nu

By default, the lists that we create through PowerShell are not in the quicklaunch, so we have to tell SharePoint that we want it there. The OnQuickLaunch value is set to $false so changing this to $true will add our Custom List to the Quicklaunch. We also need to allow ContentTypes in order to add our fields. Don’t forget to use the update() method to set the value.

PS > [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint")

PS > $SPSite = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite("http://wss"); $OpenWeb = $SpSite.OpenWeb("/"); $List = $OpenWeb.Lists["My Custom List"]; $OpenWeb.Dispose(); $SPSite.Dispose()

PS > $List.OnQuickLaunch = $true
PS > $List.ContentTypesEnabled = $true
PS > $List.Update()

Now our list is added to the QuickLaunchBar
