Travis,
You can change the display names via the JSP tools. Login to the tools, and select
the portal for the "everyone" group. The procedure is the same as for group portals.
In future, please post all WLP related questions to the weblogic.developer.interest.portal
newsgroup.
Sincerely,
Subbu

I have a question regarding portlet names. Referring to the stockportal that comeswith portal server, I notice that the name for one of the portlets is "About Avitek."
In the ebcc the portlet is identified as "AboutAvitek." So, I am wondering how the
space got in the middle of the two words. I found that in the PORTLET_P13N table
that the value in the Display_Name column was the "About Avitek." I would like to
control the title bar name of the portlet for non-logged in users. Has anyone else
notices and overcome this issue? My desired goal is to allow the ebcc user to control
the title bar name through the ebcc. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Travis,
I just spoke to the engineer working on this for the 4.1 release and it has
already been implemented. If you want to do some custom coding I think you
can also write a JSP that exposes the API methods to your users to change
the display name.

Dan,
Actually, I think the "display-name" is the more appropriate element toedit.

This is a bummer; this appears so naturally for the example, when in factits going
to be nearly impossible for a "Business User" to edit such a file. Iguess my main
request to the EBCC group is if there is an option in any of theassociated schema's,
e.g. the "display-name" element in the portal-1_0.xsd schema, then providea way
to edit it via the EBCC.
Thanks,

Travis,
It looks like you are going to have to edit the XML by hand to introduce
the
space into the portlet-name. E.g.
<portlet-name>ReviewNewsletters</portlet-name>
goes to:
<portlet-name>Review Newsletters</portlet-name>
I will take this up with the EBCC engineers and file a CR. Please let me
know if this does not solve the problem.
Thanks (and sorry),

Subbu,
I've been all over the ebcc. Even inside of the xml files. Nowhere dois
see the
possibility of manipulating the "Display Name" of the portlets in theebcc
at all.
Of course when you create a new portlet you can name it but that namehas
restrictions
against it, e.g. no spaces.
Do you know specifically where I can manipulate that attribute in theebcc?

Sorry for mt wrong answer. You've to do this via the EBCC. Check the
default portal configuration.
