Bug or feature : Using portlets with edit mode on a page in the portal

Hi,
i am using Workshop 8.1 (GA release july) and i have discovered a bug (or a
feature) with respect to the beta version.
i have created a simple portlet with a view mode and an edit mode. When i
place the portlet on the very first page of a one book portal, it works
perfectly. However, i have a book with three pages and placed the portlet on
the second page. Now when i put the portlet in edit mode, by clicking the
edit button, i am directed to the first page of the portal and the portlet
will not show.
Inspection learned that the URL generated for the edit button, didn't
contain the _pagelabel parameter. When i added the parameter manually it
works fine.
A final remark is that the buttons in the titlebar have no icons the browser
can load.
hope someone can help me out,
Lodewijk

Can you please post this question to weblogic.developer.interest.portal
newsgroup.
Thanks

Add Content button not rendered inside Portlets on edit mode

Hi,
I have a requirement where administrators will add some external content(Add content) either from taskflow or portlet and that external content (along with taskflow output) will be shown to the users based on some logic performed inside the taskflow/portlet bean code.
This PanelCustomziable should render AddContent button inside the portlet when pressing ctrl shiftE, but its no doing so? Where as the same PanelCustomizable renders AddContent button inside the taskflow on edit page? Any settings or changes needs to be done to make it work in porlet when consumed in portal?
a)taskflow cannot be selected for this purpose, as there will be only a single instance of the taskflow across the portal and it cannot retain runtime MDS changes to a specific instance (Unless we design the ADF taskflow with MDS customization layer). By default, any runtime change in one taskflow instance will be propagated to all the other taskflow instances of the portal.
(For eg.. Admin drops this taskflow onto a page1 and adds a image(external content) using the button AddContent inside the taskflow because of PanelCustomizable and close the page. He drops the same taskflow from RC only to find that the changes he done on page1 is being retained here ..its not resuable because of no MDS per instance)
So we selected Portlet for this purpose, as it has the inbuilt personalization framework. Admin can personalize each portlet instance and drops on the the same page and diff page again. But with portlets, Add Content is not rendered.
Its not just external content, the taskflow / porltet has some logic to perform and displays some output based on the ruleId which is the input parameter.
Taskflow or jsff code
==================
<cust:panelCustomizable id="pc1">
<cust:showDetailFrame text="rules content" id="sdf1"
shortDesc="rules content">
<af:panelGroupLayout id="pg1" >
<af:outputText label="RuleId" id="ot1" clientComponent="true"/>
</af:panelGroupLayout>
</cust:showDetailFrame>
</cust:panelCustomizable>

Guest Portal Using ISE with Flexconnect Mode

Folks,
I have configured my guest web authentication using ISE with flexconnect mode like this:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/ps10315/products_tech_note09186a0080bcb905.shtml
After done, I connect the SSID but cannot log in. I cannot get IP address and in the ISE I can see that my device has already hit my authorization profile and the status is pending. Can anyone help me with this?

As Richard says, check to see if you have an IP address. If not check the AP settings for FlexConnect. Is the mode on the AP set right? Please confirm that you are using FC local switching and not centralised switching?
Is the VLAN tagging enabled on the AP, and/or the VLANs on the AP switchport set right?

Using Sansung S3, not yet possible to share all the open tabs (using NFC) with another NFC phone. But only the one main tab I am currently browsing is possible.

Using Sansung S3, Android 4.1.2, Firefox 24.0; not yet possible to share all the open tabs (using NFC) with another NFC phone. But only the one main tab I am currently browsing is possible to share. Is this the feature of current NFC feature of Firefox?
If so, when will there be feature to share all the tabs?
Thanks.

I'm not sure if we will implement this. Sharing all the tabs you have open have many more security and privacy issues. Someone forgets that they had a tab open they did not want to share or miss-clicks on the share all option.
We are looking into better ways to share tabs with devices that are nearby. Especially if they are on the same WiFi network.

PL/SQL Portlet with edit defaults. HOW ???

Hi !
I created a pl/sql portlet that renders html. Now I want a customization option on the "Edit Defaults" page of the portlet. How do I do this ??
In the code of the portlet I set "l_portlet.has_show_edit_defaults" to true. So the Edit Defaults page is show, but it's empty.
On that page I want a variable where you can choose between 3 options. In the procedure where I render the html, I want to read this variable so I can render 3 different things.
Can someone please help me ?

I suggest you look at the database services provider in the PDK which is an example provider showing how to do the basic things within a provider/portlet - like customise and edit defaults.
You could also generate a provider using the pl/sql generator - that will produce code that you can use as a starting point for your development.
Basically you have to add code to the show procedure of the portlet to render a different page if the mode is 'MODE_SHOW_EDIT_DEFAULTS'. Look in the samples - it should be clear.
Hope this helps.

Unable to launch Adobe Reader using ShellExecute with Protected Mode on

HI
Using the latest Adobe Reader 11.0.9, I open a PDF via ShellExecute in a legacy 32bit application, I get an unsupported configuration dialog and prompt to open with Protected Mode disabled always, once or don't open.
I need it to open with Protected Mode enabled.
The folder is in the Security (Enhanced) Privileged Locations.
I turned Protected Mode logging on and I see these messages when I call ShellExecute:
[12:02/18:17:12] interceptions setup failed - error:0x0
[12:02/18:17:12] Failed to add target - error:0x0
[12:02/18:17:12] Failed to launch sandbox process. ResultCode: 1 error:0x5A4
[12:02/18:17:12] Sandbox Process Initialization Failed - error:0x5A4
I've read the Unsupported Configurations section of the Protected Mode Troubleshooting guide but nothing matches my system as far as I can tell.
I am running the 32bit legacy application in Windows Server 2008 R2 (64bit) as a member of Domain Administrators
What can you suggest is the unsupported configuration?
Thanks
Craig

I've tried another PDF viewer and it works fine so I think it's time to say goodbye to Adobe Reader.

A Bug in iOS7 Using Siri with in Car Bluetooth

I have a near new Hyundai SanteFe with built in bluetooth. Under iOs6 it worked fine when listening to CD, Radio or Music from the iPhone. Now, if I use Siri when using Radio or CD it still works fine. However if I am listening to Music app on the iPhone , using the aux input, when I press to use Siri, either from the bluetooth button in the vehice or from the iphone itself, there is no input from the mic to Siri. Siri comes up but only tells me what kind of questions I can ask, there is no connection from the bluetooth Mic to Siri itself.
As it was OK in iOS6, I assume that it is a bug in iOS7.

Did you ever figure this out? I have the same problem in an Audi A4

Page content disappears in Edit mode - Custom Master Page

Hi All,
Below are the two issues I have with my master page.
1) I am facing the strange issue with the pages created using custom page layouts and custom master page.
In browse mode, everything looks perfect and as expected. But when I try to edit the same page, all content disappears as soon as page ribbon appears. When I click back on Browse tab on the ribbon, everything appears back normally.
2) Also When I apply my custom master page as site master for Publishing site it works I can see all my custom design and layout. But when I apply same for team sites, unless I change system master to my custom master page, it doesn't reflect my design.
Does anyone face this issue before?
Thanks
Pramod

Once in edit mode, are you able to view the page's source and do a "Find" on a certain keyword that should normally appear in your page's content? Is it there?
I'm trying to determine if its a server side issue with your master page's code that's causing the content not to be sent back across the wire to the user or if the content is there but just not properly presented. Thanks

I found an old Apple id on a computer I use infreqently with an old Ipod. I have the the Applie ID, but I do not have the password. In addition,my email account has changed since I created this Applie ID. How can I get reset info to new email address?

I found an old Applie ID on a computer I use infreqently with an old IPod. I do not have the password for this AppleID. When I use the procedure to reset the password, I cannot receive the email as my email address has changed from the original used with the Apple ID. How can I get the reset information sent to my current email addres so I can establish a new passwod for this Applie ID?

FR Tecmobility is wrong, sure he means well but what he suggests will not work - signing out of iTunes Store and back in will have no effect on iCloud. Try the steps at iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
You may need to contact apple tech support if none of the password change methods work for you. Ask for Account Security. They will need to verify identity, to ensure you are who you claim to be. If that goes well, they can send a password rest e-mail to any e-mail you desigate, so make sure it is one you can access. Then reset the password. Then you can delete the iCloud account (needs the password to turn off find My Phone/Activation lock)
keep data on phone, then sign in with your desired apple ID. Good luck. hope you get this sorted out.

While in Edit Mode in Moodle - page content does not render at all, but I am able to display the underlying HTML code. Happens only after upgrade to Firefox 11.0.

While in edit mode in the Moodle course management system, the Page Content window should display the page as it will appear to the user. If you click on the "Edit" button, you are able to view the HTML code for the page. However, when you return to the normal display mode, the page is blank. This has occurred after the upgrade to Firefox 11.0. Page is normally rendered in Internet Explorer.

A possible cause is security software (firewall,anti-virus) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

How to edit a spreadsheet (excel file) in the portal?

Hello experts,
at the moment i am working on the requirement to edit a spreadsheet in the portal.
Until now i was able to display an excel file with the help of the 'KM Document iView (without content filter)'.
Everything is displayed alright and i can perform changes in the spreadsheet.
BUT: There is no such thing like a Save-Button or something like that. Does the SAP NW Portal already provide a solution for this requirement? Or will i have to develop an own application?
I have already searched the forums and sap help, but i haven't found any solution. I can't imagine that such an easy requirement would need coding.
Best Regards
Marcus
(Po*nts will be rewarded for good answers)

Hi Marcus,
I do not think you can do the task the way you want. You will have to look for some workaround that may be download the file, edit it and then upload it back. You will have to code in your application for that. If you want to do this way I can help you further to edit and save the excel.
Regards.

Using a custom login page for the portal

Hi all,
I'm currently doing a migration from Plumtree 4.5WS to Plumtree 5.0.4. In the current 4.5WS portal, I'm catering to 3 different login mechanisms due to time-lags in migration of my users' workstations. The 3 mechanisms are:
1) Smart Card Reader on Windows 95 using TLS (uses a client side ActiveX)
2) Smart Card Reader on Windows XP using SSL (uses client side ActiveX)
3) Java PKI Card on Windows XP using SSL (uses server side scripting)
To cater to the above, we've made customisations to login.asp and dologin.asp and also added a few scripts of our own.
I now need to migrate these over to Plumtree 5.0 as well. I've thought of 2 ways to do this:
1) Doing a custom view replacement of the Login View. This however has limitations as I'm not sure how the codes for the above 3 mechanisms will come in, especially 3), which involves server side scripting.
2) Creating a custom login and exit page. This is probably a much more feasible solution in my case as it allows me to freely create my login pages and exit pages accordingly to cater for the above. However to do this, I need to be able to customize the Log In and Log Off links on the Portal Banner in order to point these to my own login and exit pages.
Any ideas what is the best (or correct) way to do this?
Thanks!
Weng Kong Lee

AFAIK only one login.jsp is called.
But you can include logic into that one JSP file.
If referer = portal.company.com THEN
else
This way you can create different look and feel for different virtual hosts.
Login portlets have the disadvantage that https is not supported
