Customizing wiki templates?

I have been trying to tweak the wiki pages to my liking in Leopard server. The web guide only has one paragraph about editing the theme.plist file in /Library/Application/Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/
wireframe.wikitheme/. I have taken out the comment to keep the theme hidden and that works. I can now select the wireframe theme in my wiki's. However the custom sidebar code seems to break the welcome page if I uncomment it. What I would like to do is have custom sidebar items and also have the sidebar show up in all my wiki pages. After messing around I found that I can take the example sidebar code and put it in the metadata.plst file under the groups wiki folder. This actually works. I don't know enough html or css to get this to show up for all pages. Has attempted to customize this yet?

I've also tried moving the xsl files to within the themes and the edited files do not show as modified in the browser even after restarting the server.
Please can someone check what I have done and let me know whether this is correct.
The first thing that I did was to follow James Craig's instructions in a different post.

cd /Library/Application\ Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/
There is a directory for each theme. You can create your own themes here, or create copies of the theme directory. For example:
sudo cp -r float.green.banner.wikitheme/ mytheme.wikitheme
sudo cp wireframe.wikitheme/theme.plist mytheme.wikitheme/
Then edit the theme.plist file copied from the wireframe theme.
1. Change the displayName from "Wireframe Theme" to "My Custom Theme".
2. Change the name from "com.apple.wireframe" to your own unique ID.
3. Change the "selectable" key to true (or remove the key/value pair).
4. Uncomment the "sidebars" key/value pair. NOTE: The "Upcoming Events" sidebar dict needs a UID key/value; either add one or leave that dict commented.
5. Save the file.
The next thing I did was to copy the XSL into the custom theme folder as per John Anderson's instructions.

You should start with the templates already in /usr/share/wikid/lib/apple_templates and copy them into your template folder. Never edit these files in-place -- we will end up overwriting them in a software update! Copy the xsl files into your custom theme. The theme will need to be selected in that specific group wiki's settings in order for the new xsl files to be used.
I have restarted the server with:
sudo serveradmin stop teams;sudo serveradmin start teams
and I have restarted the web service but the changes do not take effect.
If I modify the files directly in /usr/share/wikid/lib/apple_templates then the changes are effected.
So my theme folder looks like this:
pwd: /Library/Application Support/Apple/WikiServer/Themes/ooai.wikitheme
folder contents:

In the blog the settings have been changed to load this new theme.
So what am I doing wrong?

Custom RTF templates in Oracle Core Contracts ..

Hello:
We want to create custom RTF templates in Oracle Core Contracts along with custom data templates.
We do not want to use XSL-FO templates since we are finding this too complex to work with ... also the fact that the XML data is being generated by some internal OAF processes that we cannot control.
This is unnecessarily too complex for us.
Can we create our own reporting using XML -Publisher and integrate it in the system ?
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated ... Yesh

Srini:
I did read those pages and unless I am missing something .. it is basically saying the follwing:
Copy the seeded XSL-FO templates and make changes to them and then upload them back. I have no real access to the xml data since it is somehow pre-generated. I do not have a choice of using RTF templates along with the ease of Word based formatting.
The above process goes against the way in which we can write our own reports in XMLP:
(a) Create our own data templates (use our own SQL)
(b) Create our own layout templates (using RTF or XSl_FO)
So I am stuck into undertsanding .... OAF, Java API's ,etc that I should not have to understand to generate a report ...

Create a custom web template using VS 2012 with web features,site features sections applied

hi,
Want to create a custom web template using VS 2012 in my SP 2013 environment. i know "Vesku" has posted a great artice on this [ based on prev. version of SP].
here -
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/vesku/archive/2010/10/14/sharepoint-2010-and-web-templates.aspx
i am looking for a code based article which has step by step process which provides how to add the site features, web features and attach the eventreceivers etc etc on sitecollection creation when i apply this template from central admin.
can anyone provide me any links / any source how to create a custom web template with one / two custom features - site features element and web features element , / master page etc ....
I am stuck with this. as part of my reqmnt, i need to create a webtemplate with all the customlistinstances, custompagelayouts, custom masterpages, custom appln pages, custom web parts.
help is appreciated !
Das

The problem is that Web Templates are deployed to a gallery in a site collection and aren't available in Central Admin when creating a new site collection. YOu have to create the site collection without choosing a template and then choose your web
template when you first access the root site in the site collection. Here's an article that discusses that process here:
http://sharepointchick.com/archive/2011/02/10/using-web-templates-to-create-site-collections.aspx
Other than that Vesa's article is still the best one and works essentially the same in 2013 as it does in 2010.

Custom Administrative Template Error 53 Key name specified more than once

Hi All,
Hope I've picked the correct forum. I am making my first foray into setting up a custom administrative template for some software that is developed in house. The current deployment method is to merge a reg file on each computer that requires the registry
settings. I am trying to set this up so that it is controlled via GPO.
My idea is that in the a GP can set the registry settings for one or more areas that are controlled by the software.
The problem I have - I get Error 53 Keyname specified more than once on Line 9 (second KEYNAME). In total I will have about 30 different sites this needs to be set up for.
Does this mean that I can't set more than one registry key per "Policy" setting in the GPO?
The adm file I have so far is below
TIA

How to create a Custom form Template..

Hi Eperts,
I would like to seek a help from you regarding creating a custom form template on custom BO. could you guide me where i have gone wrong in successfully creating a Print form. I am in dead need of this particular solution for a client. It is hampering my entire scenario......
1. I had created a Custom BO and I am trying to preview the created form on the OIF screen.
2. I had created a form on above of the custom BO. This created form and form group is activated and configured as of needed by opening it through ALD (Adobe Life Cycle Designer).
3. I had created a BAC element with some scoping questions and activated it. After activating it i had deployed the Business configuration.
4. my solution got updated with the created and deployed BAC elements and i had done scoping for those elements to make my created form available.
5. I can see my form template in Form Template maitaince under Application user managment WOC. I had made it to be available for all users and published.
6. All the above steps are done success fully with no errors.
7. When i accessed my custom BO and tried to preview the created form i am unable to view it and i am seeing the following window.
Could you help me out in solving this or send me across any detailed document regarding this what you had done previously.
Thanks in advance for your valuable help...
Regards...
Hanu K

It looks like system didn't identify the form template. So please check if the required configuration for "Preview" modal dialog is done properly. In the SDK documentation, refer to section "8.4.3.4 Create a Preview Button for a Print Form"
If you have already done the steps mentioned in the section 8.4.3.4, but still facing the issue then let me know.
Best regards,
Hari

Custom Rowtype Template with apex.widget.report.sort() - does this work?

Hi Folks!
I have a report with a custom rowtype template (3 rows for each dataset) and I have fiddeled around with the build-in javascript sorting-function. (Cause as it seems you can't use the standard sorting functionality on custom rowtemplates.) I came up with a short solution, but I would like to know how safe this is.
Setup very simple:
The Header-Template [before rows]
<table id="myDomId">
    <thead><tr>
        <th><a href="javascript:sortCol(1)">Col1</a></th>
        <th><a href="javascript:sortCol(2)">Details</a></th>
        <th><a href="javascript:sortCol(3)">Col3</a></th>
    </tr></thead>
Then the javascript handling runs like that:
var qmmSorter = {};
$(function(){
   setupSorters();
function setupSorters(){
    qmmSorter.DomCatch = /\d+/.exec($('#myDomId>div').attr('id'))[0];
    qmmSorter.lastCol = 1;
    qmmSorter.asc = true;
function sortCol(colnum){
//console.log(colnum);
    if (qmmSorter.DomCatch) {
        qmmSorter.lastCol = colnum;
        qmmSorter.asc = !qmmSorter.asc;
        javascript:apex.widget.report.sort( qmmDomCatch,'fsp_sort_'+colnum + ( qmmSorter.asc ? '' : '_desc') );
Maybe I'll also add some arrows to indicate what sorting took place. Tested so far in IE9 and Moz - all we really use in our internal network.
But this seems all a bit just too easy. so I'd be really thankful for your comments.
Tanks and greetings,
Tobi

It would be even easier to use column header substitution and retain the built-in sort functionality (although this includes the sort direction image bug).
<table id="myDomId">
<thead><tr>
    <th>#1#</th>
    <th>#2#</th>
    <th>#3#</th>
</tr></thead>

Link in my customized Report Template doesn't work – Apex 3.1

I created a report template based on columns of my report
My query report is:
SELECT MEM_NAS ID, MEM_NOM NAME, MEM_DATE_NAIS BIRTH
FROM ACMT_MEMBRE;
My customized report template have this Row Template definition:
<tr onclick="redirect('f?p=&APP_ID.:6:&SESSION.:::6:P6_NAS:#ID#');">
<td #ALIGNMENT# class="t16data_edit">#NAME#</td>
<td #ALIGNMENT# class="t16data_edit">#BIRTH#</td>
</tr>
This would redirect to the page 6 when user click anywhere on a row but it doesn’t work.
I have this error message:
CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');"> CHECK$01');">
I realized that problem is caused by #ID# because if I hardcode this ID, it works.
How can my report template get the “ID” from my query report ?

Is the report template definitely of type Named Column (row template) (defined on App Builder page 4000:4654) and not Generic Columns (column template) (defined on page 400:258)?
Note that the <tt>#ALIGNMENT#</tt> substitution string is not supported in named column templates. Set column alignment explicitly using HTML attributes in the template, or use CSS.
This would redirect to the page 6 when user click anywhere on a row but it doesn’t work.

{code}Where do you see this? It looks like there's a mismatch between the report columns returned by the query and those referenced in the report template. Or the data contains unsafe HTML characters that aren't being escaped.
Yes, my report query has a column called ID and it's set as Hidden. This could be the problem. In a report based on a named column template any columns referenced in the template must be +shown+ in the report, even if (as in this case) the column value is not visible to the user: the positioning of the <tt>#ID#</tt> column placeholder in the <tt>onclick</tt> attribute rather than in a table cell is what makes it "hidden". *The Show checkbox for the ID column must be checked.*
From the gobbledygook being generated it looks like there could be a row selector checkbox column in this report as well? Named column row templates must include substitution placeholders for every shown column. It's also advisable to keep the columns in the same order in the SQL, report column attributes and row template.
Something like
{code}
<tr onclick="redirect('f?p=&APP_ID.:6:&SESSION.:::6:P6_NAS:#ID#');">
<td class="t16data_edit">#CHECK$01#</td>
<td class="t16data_edit">#NAME#</td>
<td class="t16data_edit">#BIRTH#</td>
</tr>
{code}
I realized that problem is caused by #ID# because if I hardcode this ID, it works.
How can my report template get the “ID” from my query report ?If the above doesn't help then the easiest way to troubleshoot this would be for you to upload the app to apex.oracle.com and post guest developer credentials for the workspace so we can see the whole thing: template, SQL, and report attributes. Otherwise we're likely to and up with a lot of tedious to and fro here posting bits of code and attribute values.

Custom Report Template Issue

Hi,
I have a Custom Report Template, it is a Named Column(Row) Report that I have created. It seems I can get the look and feel I want on a per row basis. But when I try and convert it to be able to loop through for a specific type, like a break on the first column, it gets all messed up. I was wondering if someone might be able to shed some light for me on this I have tried everything
Here is the row template
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="0" bgcolor="#000000">

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the input! Yeah it is based on a query from a collection as all this data is summations that i am pre-populating.
Yes this html is probably from 1998 or 1999 I think they told me actually lol
So there is no way to accomplish what I am trying to do then?
There is no way I could use a break on first column and modify the header info to get the same sort of look and feel?Still not really clear what you are trying to accomplish, and in my view there are so many problems with the "look and feel" that it's not worth perpetuating.
Making a lot of assumptions, I've come up with the kind of HTML structure I'd use when marking up this kind of data. I added a page 2 to your example on apex.oracle.com, showing a basic presentation of this structure alongside the original for comparison, and another styled using the default theme L&F.
<li>Given the requirement to use multi-level headers (and because I prefer to have total control over the HTML), I stayed with a custom report template rather than trying to utilise column breaking with a generic column report template. This also permits use of more advanced table structures than can be supported by standard templates, such as s<tt>colgroup</tt>s to organize the table columns as well as the rows:
Before Rows
<table cellpadding="0" border="0" cellspacing="0" summary="" #REPORT_ATTRIBUTES# id="report_#REGION_STATIC_ID#">
#TOP_PAGINATION#
<tr>
    <td>
      <table class="fish">
        <caption>Some fishy summaries</caption>
        <colgroup span="1"></colgroup>
        <colgroup span="4" class="evaluation-trips" align="right"></colgroup>
        <colgroup span="4" class="other-trips" align="right"></colgroup>
After Rows
      </table>
    </td>
</tr>
#PAGINATION#
</table><li>Rather than separate tables, the report is contained in one HTML table, utilizing the <tt>tbody</tt> element to subdivide this into separate row groups to meet the "break on first column" requirement. This is achieved using conditional row templates, with PL/SQL Expressions based on the values of metadata columns added to the query:
Row Template 1
Header rows and first data row for each row group. <tt>scope</tt> attributes are added to multi-column headers for improved accessibility:
  <tbody>
    <tr>
      <th colspan="9" scope="rowgroup">#C1#</th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th></th>
      <th colspan="4" scope="colgroup">Evaluation Trips</th>
      <th colspan="4" scope="colgroup">All Other Trips</th>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <th>#C2#</th>
      <th>#C4#</th>
      <th>#C5#</th>
      <th>#C6#</th>
      <th>#C7#</th>
      <th>#C4#</th>
      <th>#C5#</th>
      <th>#C6#</th>
      <th>#C7#</th>
    </tr>
    <tr class="#ALT#">
      <td class="desc">#C8#</td>
      <td>#C9#</td>
      <td>#C10#</td>
      <td>#C11#</td>
      <td>#C12#</td>
      <td>#C13#</td>
      <td>#C14#</td>
      <td>#C15#</td>
      <td>#C16#</td>
    </tr>
#CLOSE_ROW_GROUP#
Row Template 1 Expression
This template is used when the row metadata shows that the current row is in a different row group from the previous row:
#ROW_GROUP# != #PREVIOUS_ROW_GROUP#
Row Template 2
This is the "default" template, used for any subsequent data rows in the row group:
    <tr class="#ALT#">
      <td class="desc">#C8#</td>
      <td>#C9#</td>
      <td>#C10#</td>
      <td>#C11#</td>
      <td>#C12#</td>
      <td>#C13#</td>
      <td>#C14#</td>
      <td>#C15#</td>
      <td>#C16#</td>
    </tr>
#CLOSE_ROW_GROUP#Both templates make use of a <tt>#CLOSE_ROW_GROUP#</tt> column value conditionally generated in the query that returns a <tt></tbody></tt> tag if the current row is the last data row in the row group. (Mixing logic and structure in this way is not good practice, but APEX only allows up to 4 conditional row templates, which is completely insufficient for any moderately complex structure.)
<li>Several metadata columns (incorporating heavy use of analytic functions) are added to the report query for use in the report template or CSS presentation:
with fish as (
      select
                c1, c2, c3, c4, c5, c6, c7, c8, c9, c10, c11, c12, c13, c14, c15, c16
                  Generate a fixed order for separate report sections/row groups.

<li>Finally, the visual presentation is applied using CSS rather than (mainly deprecated) HTML attributes, via an embedded style sheet in the page HTML Header:
<style type="text/css">
.fish {
empty-cells: show;
border-collapse: collapse;
.fish tbody tr:first-child th {
border-top: 1px solid #fff;
font-weight: bold;
.fish th,
.fish td {
padding: 3px 6px;
.fish th {
border-bottom: 1px solid #fff;
border-left: 1px solid #fff;
background-color: #275096;
color: #fff;
font-weight: 300;
text-align: left;
.fish td {
text-align: right;
.fish tr.\30 td {
    background-color: #dde;
.fish td:first-child {
    text-align: left;
</style>The default theme L&F report adds vertical borders to separate columns and column groups (latter may not be fully effective on IE: I'm not wasting my time on quirks mode fixes for that).
The resulting report uses 60% less vertical space, and 87% less HTML code[1] than the original. Usability and accessibility are improved by eliminating nested tables and useless table cells and shim images, increasing the contrast between text and background colours, and using alternating row backgrounds for better visual tracking.
[1] Including whitespace, but neither template is compressed in any way: both are in fully readale format including normal whitespace indentation.

Custom report template and URL links

Hello,
I have been working on this problem for some-time and it's starting to get frustrating. I am trying to 'mimic' the functionality of the 'people search' application and I am working on the hierarchy portion of it (page 3).
I copied the (3) custom report templates (one for each level of the hierarchy) and I created three queries to go to each.
My problem is that the links in the report template code keep getting mixed around -- the mgr_id is showing where the mgr_name should be, etc. In the example application the query has about 6 columns, and the template is only showing three (and the order of them in the report attributes doesn't seem to matter. But when I change the column order in my application, the data in the template changes??
Here is an example query:
select MGR_NAME, work_role,
nvl(total_direct,0) Directs, nvl(total_reports,0) Reports
from hr_orgchart_view
where
emp_id = :p3_emp_id
And the matching report template:
<tr align="center" valign="top">
<td align="center"class="instructiontext">
<b>#MGR_NAME#</b>
<br><font size=-2>
#WORK_ROLE#
</font><br><FONT class="smallBlack">
Directs: #DIRECTS# Total: #REPORTS#</font></td></tr>
Since the column name is being referenced as the link text, column order should not matter right?
Please shed some light on this situation, as I am holding up development. I am using version 1.6
Thanks,
Jeff

Sorry, the code was messed up in previous post:
Template:
<tr align="center" valign="top">
<td align="center"class="instructiontext">
<b>#MGR_NAME#</b>
<br><font size=-2>
#WORK_ROLE#</font><br><FONT class="smallBlack">
Directs: #DIRECTS# Total: #REPORTS#</font></td></tr>

Custom display template for search

If you see in "managedPropertyMapping" I have added a new property "SEDWMPNewsPublishDate" and when I use in my html I am not getting the value.
I checked with fiddler and I found that This property is not getting mapped. Json object does return this property.However this property has value. I have tested with content search webpart nad my code also.it returns value.
Can anyone let me know is there any issue in the above rendering template code
On update to this, I was using resultscript webpart on the page to display data and I have created custom result type to modify the display.What I found that when I add the custom properties which I need, on result script webpart using as
follows
scriptWebPart.SelectedPropertiesJson = "[\"SEDWMPNewsPublishDate\",\"SEDWMPIntroduction\"]"
and save the changes then I start getting the value of my custom properties.
I don't know how the result type works in accordance with display templates and when does it gets applied on the search data.If anyone is aware please let me know.
If I can't use the display templates with custom properties then what is the use of ManagedPropertyMapping on display templates.Can anyone please make me understand?

You need to update the js file also.You can upload the js file also.In js file you have a column "ManagedPropertyMapping" this denotes which managed property should come for item in search.
For uploading the js file you can use as follows under module
<File Path="ModSearchDisplayTemplates\x.js" Url="x.js" Type="GhostableInLibrary">
<Property Name="Title" Value="xjs" />
<Property Name="MasterPageDescription" Value="$Resources:Microsoft.Office.Server.Search,DisplayTemplateDescription_SearchDefaultItem" />
<Property Name="ContentType" Value="$Resources:TemplateContentType_Code_Name" />
<Property Name="DisplayTemplateLevel" Value="Item" />
<Property Name="TemplateHidden" Value="0" />
<Property Name="TargetControlType" Value=";#SearchResults;#" />
<Property Name="HtmlDesignLockedFile" Value="TRUE" />
<Property Name="ManagedPropertyMapping" Value="'Title':'Title','Path':'Path','Description':'Description','EditorOWSUSER':'EditorOWSUSER','LastModifiedTime':'LastModifiedTime','CollapsingStatus':'CollapsingStatus','DocId':'DocId','FileExtension':'FileExtension','ParentLink':'ParentLink','FileType':'FileType','IsContainer':'IsContainer','SEDWMPNewsPublishDate00':'SEDWMPNewsPublishDate00','SEDWMPIntroduction':'SEDWMPIntroduction','SEDWMPNewsIsSticky':'SEDWMPNewsIsSticky','SEDWMPNewsPostThreadId':'SEDWMPNewsPostThreadId'"/>

Custom Module Templates

I cant seem to get my custom module template to work, here is the tag that is set up to pull in a random item from a set category, I then add the template url like it said to do but nothing is working, it just uses the default template, any ideas?
{module_announcement,cr,62999,,,template=”/NewsTemplate/NewsTemplate.tpl”}

{module_announcement,cr,62999 Template=”/NewsTemplate/NewsTemplate.tpl”}
You seem to have a space at .t pl?...and not space before Template=...
Try using the above line...
Be sure to edit the file name if you have a space @tpl

Custom module templates for Web Apps

Just wanting to see if there's anyone out there who knows if the custom module templates from the September release are available for Web Apps? I can't seem to get them to work.
When placing {module_webapps,8168,a template=”/custom/wap-contract.tpl”} I get a "No Items Found" response. I would appreciate help as this would be very useful in building Web Apps and I can't find documentation on it
Thanks

They do work with Web Apps, I've been able to use it successfully. Here is the only documentation I can find on it so far:
http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/partner/using-custom-templates-modules.html
Curious though, when you get "No items found" that means there are no web app items to show. So we don't really know if your custom template worked or not. If you can get some items to show up and they use the default layout, then we know something is wrong.
Hope this helps,

Custom module template

I've tried this out. The list template works, but how do I get the list-template to direct to my custom detail template?

I looked at the original blog post about the September Update. There was a link to a detailed explaination about how to use this feature. There was a note that said the following:
Note:
Custom templates can only be used for the list view of modules. Example: You can set a custom template for a news item listing, however you cannot set a custom template for the detailed view of individual news items.
