The ability to map a public domain to a secondary site is not currently functioning or available in GSuite Sites. The functionality looks like it's there but when you try to add a new mapping in the Admin Console it comes up with an error which makes sense in that it's crossing domains: You can select the added secondary domain which processes without an issue: The issue is no sites can exist under this domain. You can assign users to the domain by changing their login credentials to the secondary domain (using the rename option) however all GSuite Sites (New) are created under the primary domain and there is currently no option available to facilitate this. Integrate with Google Sites

In a any business you’ll end up with a job reference or numbering convention and a folder structure as the business grows. This can get more and more difficult to search through when moving documents around in Google Drive as there is currently no function to search after you select "Move to". A simple solution to this process is to use the star function in Drive or searching via the naming convention. Both methods work effectively but depending the situation one will be more efficient than the other. The Starring Method First select the item or items you want to move into the folder Next search for the folder you want to move the items into, select the folder and star it as well, Next select “Starred” in the sidebar and highlight the items you want to move and drag them into the folder You can check their location in the details sidebar Unstar all the items once you’ve finished The Search Method Please note this only works if you’re using a naming con...

This was one of my many draft posts waiting to see daylight (this one's about two years old) and unfortunately it looks like the Desktop Extension might be depreciated at some point. The version I'm talking about is the original App Launcher from Google that resides on your desktop Taskbar not in the Chrome browser: Back to the issue: If at some point you get an error that stops your Chrome App Launcher from launching and instead launches a standard window you should just need to correct the link so that the App Launcher works again. This can be done by completing the following steps: Locate the shortcut that's not working, whether it's on your desktop, Quick Launch Toolbar or Start Menu. Right click the shortcut and go to "Properties" In the "Target" box go to the very end of the path and type " --show-app-list" i.e. it should look something like this:  "C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.e...

What Are Chrome Apps/Extensions? Chrome Extensions are small pieces of software that integrate with Chrome browser giving it more functionality, while Chrome Apps are complete applications that use the Chrome browser as a GUI and connect to the external website for the coded processes and functions. For specific details please see: Extensions and Apps in the Chrome Web Store If you have a few extensions you used regularly we recommend that you download and install the Chrome App Launcher for your desktop as it allows for easy access and takes up less real estate: Chrome Apps Launcher Chrome Apps Below is a list of Chrome Apps that I've found useful on our network: LocalLinks - Used to open a local network folder view through neXus (will be depreciated) goo.gl URL Shortener - Create short links for long web addresses ezAutoCorrect for GMail - Auto correct for spelling, capitalization etc. Google Drive - Chrome Access to your clipboard Chrome Exten...
