Hello, you can achieve this creating a custom layout set. To do so, go to
System Administration > System Configuration > Knowledge Management > Content Management > User Interface > Settings > Layout Set
Choose a layout set - Consumer Explorer for example - check it and select Advanced Copy
Under Scope of Duplication leave only Collection Renderer Settings checked
Under Naming Conventions fill the blanks as your needs (I usually add company name as prefix)
Click on Execute, your layout set is now created.
Search for it and click to display its properties, there you'll find the four main items that compose a LayoutSet:
- Layout Controller
- Collection Renderer
- Resource Renderer
- Commands for Details Menu
You wanna work on the Collection Renderer, notice it's a custom one created during the copy. Select it to edit to chage settings.
Put the following entry under Displayed Properties:
rnd:icon,rnd:displayname(contentLink),rnd:command(command=download/style=icon),contentlength,modified
Save.
On your KM Navigation iView set the Layout Set property with this one you've just created.
This should do the basics you're asking:
- a link to download the documents
- no context menu with undesired commands
In this scenario I've eliminated complety the context menu, if you want to have the menu with just
some options you must work on UI Commands and UI Commands Group, which I suggest doing after
you have basics knowledge on layout sets only..
You can find on SDN lots of documents and threads about KM User Interface, have a special look into Layout Set, Collection Renderers and UI Commands/Groups

Search iView instead of KM Navigation iView

Hi,
the guide "How To... Tune the Performance of Knowledge Management" recommends to use Search iViews instead of KM Navigation iViews for performance reasons.
Can someone please explain how to configure these iViews? The Search iViews we use provide an input field which we don't need in this case. How can a search string be submitted, so that a Search iView directly displays the content of a folder as search result? Is there any documentation available?
Thanks in advance
Best regards

Hi Thomas,
have a look at the <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/45bcc1c0-0d01-0010-1094-fe7993416ea6">How to Configure the Last Ten Documents Scenario</a>.
There you find a sample how to start the search iView with a direct result list, by adding "QueryString=*" to the query parameter for the iview.
Hope this helps,
Robert

How to hide the folder name in a KM Navigation Iview

Hi,
Scenario,
I am using a KM Navigation Iview with LinkListExplorer Layout set. The Folder Name appears at the top of the collection.
Please can someone tell me how I can hide the folder name for the iview. i.e I do not want the folder name to appear in the iview.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Vaishali

Folder name is located in the breadcrumb
remove your breadcrumb in your collectionrenderer of the layout set you are using.
Check the layout set you are using in your KM navigational iview.

How to pass the "path" dynamically to KM navigation iView ?

HI Experts.
This is my issue:
I have a WD Java iView, with a data table.
In the same page, I have a KM navigation iview too.
Conceptually, each row in this table, have some documents in a CM Repository asociated.
This repository has subfolders for each master data in the table.
(example: imagine a table with material master data, and a repository with a subfolder for each material,
and inside of it, several unstructure documents about this material.
Then, I need to call a KM Navigation iview when click a table row, passing parameters, in special the "path".
I am using this code in my action (triggered from webdynpro iview)
     WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute("ROLES://portal_content/com.stk.demos.folders.zz_demos/com.stk.demo.ch.TEST_CH/com.stk.demo.ch.Listar_Docs",
     WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_EXTERNAL, (String)null, (String)null,
     WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.ALLOW_DUPLICATIONS, "test",
     (String)null, (String)null );
Partially it works, the window open and show the navigation iview, but...
in the root directory (or directory indicated in iView harcoded properties);
But I need pass the path !
How can I call that iView, dinamically using a parameter, the path (property ID: path)
to the KM navigation iView, in order to open initially in a indicated path?)
I have read this link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/c3/235a428a1e9041e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
but, I still can't understand how to use this parameters.
Thanks in Advance.
Leandro.

Hi Leandro,
You can create your own proxy IView and then redirect it to KM Navigation IView.
This way you can dynamically change the path.
Check this to know about proxy IView:

Portal runtime Error in KM Navigation iView

Hi,
I have created a KM Navigation iview and assigned it to a role.
When I preview it via portal content, everything is fine.
When I login as an end user with that role (to which this iview is assigned) this list of documents in that folder is shown. But when I click on any of the doc to view that, it gives me
Portal runtime error.
An exception occurred while processing your request. Send the exception ID to your portal administrator.
Exception ID: 04:09_22/07/11_0133_7786050
Refer to the log file for details about this exception.
I have already assigned the Full control permission for this role to that document folder.
Is there any more setting that needs to be done??
Thanks,
Atul

Hey Atul,
Check the URL Generator Service for the host and alternative host. See to it that these URLs have the same domain name as that of the Portal. Also, if there has been a KM database copy lately, see to it that the document is not pointing to the server in the other environments to which you as an admin could have access to but not as an end user. So, for that, again check the URL Generator Service. I am just throwing in possibilities, it had happened with me once.
Use HTTPwatch to verify what URL is the iView trying to point to OR I guess your logs might have already told you that.
Hope it helps,
Prathamesh

Auto refresh/reload of content in km navigation iview?

We are using loads of km navigation iviews to show content from km folders or taxonomy folders. Some of these are placed on the portals front page (company news for example). Since many of our employees log into our portal in the morning and then keeps it in the background during the day without refreshing the page, they miss out on new items in these iviews. This could also apply to display screens in our factories.
Does anyone have a solution as to how make these iviews refresh at certain intervals?
Henning

Hi Henning,
have you fixed this issue?
Could you please share with me the details?
Thank you.

Error with new Room Template (containing KM Navigation iView)

Hello,
I created a new room template based on a newly created workset which just contains the KM Navigation iView. As I went through the template wizard step by step (Content Administration > Collaboration Content > Room Template Administration) I didn't add any External Parameters (Step 3) and didn't add any extensions (Step 4). In the Mapping (Step 5) I mapped all internal parameter to "room_id" since I didn't know it any better. Then I created a room based on this template. When I entered the room I got the following error message. Is it possible that the following error has to do with the fact that I mapped all internal parameters to "room_id" and that I did not add any external parameters or any extensions?

Calling KM navigation iview from ABAP

Hi All,
I am trying to call the KM Navigation iview from ABAP webdynpro view. it is like implement the same functionality as currently available for Repository filters through ABAP coding. I have to create a new Folder in the KM and call the KM Navigation iview for that specific folder. I know KM has provided few new webservices which I can use to create a new folder in the KM repository but I am unable to open the KM navigation iview with the newly created folder through coding.
I am using the navigate_absolute Portal Navigation method to call the KM Navigation iview from ABAP code. Currently it is opening iview with the folder set as root folder in the iview property but I need to open it with the newly created folder through the code. The same sort of functionality is implemented from java code by passing the Business parameter with navigate_absolute method. The problem with ABAP code is that I don't know what is the exact format of the Business parameter to be passed.
In the java code the Business parameter is passed as
Uri=/documents/cprxrpm/46A73F1FEED21B0DE10000000A4241A8:DFM_450_MIT3_SAURABH/RIH/47B44774254208CCE10000000A4241A8:wonder-item-01 :WONDER-ITEM-01
Does anybody have idea how can i implement the same scenario in ABAP and what should be the format of the to be passed as Business Parameter from ABAP code ?
Regards,
Vikash

In the abap web dynpro view create an exit out bound plug with url as parameter.
In your wddoinit call the the url. The url can be accessed by previewing the km iview in content management. Hope this helps.

Anonymous access to KM Navigation Iview

In order to obtain an anonymous access to a KM folder, I followed the instructions in the guide How to configure an anonymous access to KM.
Unfortunately I still have 2 problems:
1) connecting to the portal by http://<server name etc.>/anonymous I can see the folder and the documents list, but if I try to open a document clicking on it I get a page with the message 401 Unauthorized by the J2EE Engine
2) in the KM Navigation Iview I cannot see the icons (those of the documents type, that one of the folder and so on), and when opening the iview I have a logon request for every icon
Someone can help me?

Hi Giuseppe,
if you implement everything according to SAP Note 837898 (especially the URL Generator Service entries and the Authentication Schema of the "hidden" iviews) you should get rid of this problems.
Hope this helps,
Robert

How to set the size of popups from KM Navigation Iview

Hello guys
Does any of you know how I can set the size of the window that pops up when you click on a resource/file in a KM navigation iview?
I have tried to enter "width=100,height=100" (without the quotes) in the Window Features property of the KM Navigation Iview, but it does not influence the size of the popups.
Any suggestions to what could be wrong? Or is it not possible at all to control the size of that popup?
Kind regards,
Martin

Hi,
I cheched yesterday if I could find the command, sorry I couldn't.
I also realized that the layout generates html link tags (ie. <a />) for the resource links, no javascript open link functions (ie. window.open), wich doesn't alowed (as far as I know) to give size to the pop-up window.
So to make the link of the resource (gived by the displayname(contectlink) property set) I think you would have to create (develop) the layout, so the link will be rendered with window_size.
You have other option, you can take off the "contentLink" setting. and add the download command, so the user who want to open / save the document can click on this command and do it in their PC.
I.E, Create a copy of the download, and add this to the Collection render displayed porpeties:
rnd:command(command=Z_download/style=link)
You ca also use and icon to represent the download (you can set that icon in the command)
I.E, rnd:command(command=Z_download_icon/style=icon)
This last options represents a problem with the km-only-read content like xml files generaded by xml forms, it can only be readed in the km-portal.
I hope this might help you.
Best regards,
Jorge M.

How to hide expired KM documents from authors in some navigation iviews?

Hi there,
I have one (almost philosophical) question: when Time Based Publishing is enabled, only users with read/write permission can see expired documents (I mean, documents that have passed its validfrom date). So far, so good.
This happens for all iviews (KM Navigation iviews) in the entire portal. But... what if it could be needed only in a few ones?
Think about this scenario: you have an iView where ALL users can see documents or news (for example, in a Home tab where users access when enter portal). A user with no write permissions will see only valid documents, which is OK.
However, a user with write permissions will see not only the valid docs (or news) but also the expired ones!
Don't you think is a little bit confussing for the autor? Besides the fact that this iview perhaps is showing a LOT expired documents...
Of course, these author users should be able to see expired documents in other iviews, for example, in other portal tabs...
Is this a real scenario? If yes, how it can be achieved with KM (We're on 7.4 SP6)
Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Marcelo

Hi Lorcan, thanks for the tip.... but... I don't think that would be possible (AFAIK), because all users that access to portal are authenticated users (we're using Windows Integrated Authentication).
However, I've found this SAP 1836779 - Resource is not getting deindexed after lifetime has expired, I'm dealing it with OSS.
I'll let you know any update.
Thanks again,
Best regards,
Marcelo

How can you set the default width of the 'Detailed Navigation iView'?

Hello,
we would like to reduce the default width of the 'Detailed Navigation iView' in order to save some screen space.
So far, we havn't found the right item in the portal admin to do this.
Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance.
Frank Schülke, E.ON Ruhrgas, Germany

Hi Frank,
You can change the width of this navigation iview by changing the value of "defaultExpWidth" in the file WAandNAVPanel.js present in the par file com.sap.layouts.framework.par from default value 220 pixels to the value you want.
upload the changed par file and restart the server.
Hope this helps,
(if not do get back )
