I have combined the scripts from Paul King ( here ) and Brijendra Gautam ( here ) to create my own version of the script. Function CheckInAndPublishFolderItemsRecusively( [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPFolder] $folder ) {     # Create query object     $query = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPQuery     $query.Folder = $folder     # Get SPWeb object     $web = $folder.ParentWeb     # Get SPList     $list = $web.Lists[$folder.ParentListId]     # Get a collection of items in the specified $folder     $itemCollection = $list.GetItems($query)     # Iterate through each item in the $folder     foreach ($item in $itemCollection)     {         # If the item is a folder         if ($item.Folder -ne $null)         {             # Call the Get-Items function recursively for ...
