Opening an Infopath form library template from Infopath in a link

I've found a lot of bad info on how to do this and it's not well documented so hopefully this helps someone: first create a JavaScript function so that your links aren't super long: <script type="text/javascript">             function OpenForm(absSiteUrl, siteRelFormUrl, siteRelSaveUrl)             {                         var formUrl = absSiteUrl + siteRelFormUrl;                         var saveUrl = absSiteUrl + siteRelSaveUrl;                         var formSvcUrl = absSiteUrl + "_layouts/FormServer.aspx?XsnLocation=" + formUrl;    ...

People Search from MySite returns 404

If you have MySites and a Search Center running in your farm, you may have overlooked a not-so-obvious configuration setting. When setting up MySites for a User Profile service application, your Search Center URL must point to the "Pages" folder where the Search Center publishing pages are located instead of the Search Center web URL. Otherwise, a People Search from a MySite will forward the request to to http://[searchcenter]/PeopleResults.aspx?k=searchquery (which doesn't exist) instead of http://[searchcenter]/PeopleResults.aspx?k=searchquery which is where the PeopleResults.aspx page is actually located. TLDR: Use http://[searchcenter] /Pages/ for your Search Center url in UPA MySite Settings.
