Discussion Forum Missing New Product Link

I've installed the Discussion Forum Portlet from the Integration Tools version 9.0.4.0. No errors deploying the .ear file or other problems at install time. After registering a new user so that I can use the discussion portlet, I only have a link for MY SUBSCRIPTIONS. The link for NEW PRODUCT is missing. I added 2 users and see the same results. Anyone have an idea what could have happened here? Thanks.

Hi,
I am experiencing the same problem. However while trying to edit the defaults I cannot add users apart from just typing them into the user field and clicking add. I also cannot delete any users that have been added by this method. Another odd one is that the LOV popup for the users do not contain any usernames. The OID settings fields are blank so my hunch is that might be the reason why the user LOV is blank. I tried to setup the Forum OID setting with the Portal OID settings but it doesn't save the info when I click on 'Apply' or 'Ok'! Anyone out there getting this sort of wierd behaviour? Cheers

Endeca cartridge to display relevant content of a discussion forum

Hi,
I have setup endeca commerce 11 and able to create my own store front based on discover electronics sample with my own product data (laptop store)
Now I am looking for a way to create a cartridge that can display the content of a discussion forum related to products displayed in the store. Ex: When user navigates to Dell brand, I need to show relevant discussions on Dell laptops in the right column of threecolumnpage template. I have gone through how to crawl web pages using CAS but unable to find steps to get the data into MDEX and tag the discussions based on my property and dimension values.
Are there any documents/instructions that I can follow to accomplish this requirement?
Thanks for support

Once content is inside Endeca, that is what I understand from your first post, you can use the OOTB cartridges (like results list, record spot light) to get the content and display it (customize your jsp to make them look as you want.)
If you don't bring data into Endeca, then you will have to write a custom cartridge handler to pull data from a discussion forum at run time.
Let us know what approach you are taking.
Pankaj.

Welcome to the New NI Discussion Forums!

We are excited to present the NEW and IMPROVED NI Discussion Forums to you, our valued community members!
The community not only had a face-lift, it now offers a full set of advanced personalization features and it is available in seven languages!
Here are some tips to help you get around the new system:
What do the boxes next to the user names mean?
This is the new user ranking system. The three boxes represent the user’s score in the three performance metrics: ratings, posts, and logins. The darker the box is shaded, the higher the user has scored in that performance metric.
The box on the left is the average message rating the user has received.
The box in the center is the total number of posts the user has contributed to the community.
The box on the right is the number of times the user has logged into the community.
The blue boxes designate the user is an NI Employee while the gold boxes are reserved for NI Partners and customers.
How do I find a thread from the old system in the new system?
If you have the title of the thread, we recommend searching for it using the search bar at the top or bottom of the page.
If you do not have the title of thread or cannot find it with search, but you know that you posted to the thread, we recommend that you login and click on your Alias at the top of the page to view your profile. From your profile page, click on the Find All Posts by this User link and scroll through the results to find the thread.
If you do not have the title of the thread and you didn’t post to it, but you know the Alias of someone else who did post to the thread, conduct a User search to find that user. Click on their Alias to view their profile page and then use the Find All Posts by this User link to find the thread.
If you do not have the title of the thread and you don’t know the Alias of any user who posted to it, we recommend browsing the board that you believe it would be in until you find it.
How do I personalize the forums?
Once you login, click on the My Profile link at the top of the page. From the tabs on this page, you can modify your time zone, ratings preference, font size, emoticon style, etc to personalize your experience. As long as you remember to Save Changes before you leave the tabs, your forum will be personalized for you each time you login.
What languages are supported?
The user interface is translated into the following languages:
Chinese (Simplified)
Chinese (Traditional)
English
French
Korean
Japanese
Spanish
Note: The language in the My Preferences tab in the forums only controls the language for that session. As soon as you logout and login again, your language will be reset to the language that you have configured in your NI User Profile. To modify the language configured in your NI User Profile, visit www.ni.com/profile.

What does Float mean?
You can choose to pin boards or threads to the top of the lists so that when you are logged in they are the first things you see. To do this, click on the up arrow to the right of the board or message you want to Float to the top of your lists. When you no longer want this message or board at the top of your lists, you can click the arrow again to UnFloat the board or message.
Why are there smiley faces in the sample code pieces?
There are times when the pieces of code include the same characters that are used to create an emoticon in the forums. To disable emoticons so that you can see the code correctly, follow these steps:
Sign In or Register to the forums if you are not already logged in
Click My Profile in the User Bar at the top of the page
Click My Preferences to view the My Preferences tab
Change the Emoticon Type to None in the My Preferences tab in your Profile
Click Save Changes
Now when you browse to the thread, the code should be displayed correctly.
Emoticons will no longer be displayed in any messages you view in the forums until you change the Emoticon Type back to one of the other types.
If you have additional questions or feedback about the upgrade, refer to the Help or post to the Feedback on NI Discussion Forums board.

Just a couple of comments:
1. In the CVI forum, I couldn't post a message which included the C #include syntax with angle brackets. It interpreted the angle brakcets as HTML, gave me an HTML syntax error, and deleted the angle brackets as well as the .h file they enclosed. There may be a way in HTML to escape the angle brakcets so they can be included as text rather than interpreted as HTML, but I shouldn't have to do that in a C forum.
2. When I got the HTML error message above, it also deleted the file I had attached so when I posted the message, there was no attachment.
3. I don't get automatic hyperlinks in any posts I read or create. The text of the URL is there, but I can't just click to link to the new page. Am I missing some option?
4. Older but updated messages don't come to the top. I like to see new activity even if I'm not subscribed to that thread.
5. When reviewing the list of messages in the forums, I'd like to see the ratings of the author and of the reply (even before opening the message). In the old forums, the messages where tagged "Answered by Enthusiast" and/or "High rating".
6. I'd like to see the buttons to rate an answer even if I'm not logged. If I try to rate an answer when I'm not logged on, it could prompt me to log on first. If the rating buttons are only available if you're logged on, I think the number of ratings will be drastically reduced.
7. I miss the list of top contributors (formerly known as Enthusiasts). I think it was a good way to foster community and to get to know active members. It also generated some friendly competition to see who had more posts and who had higher ratings.
8. I liked the old organization with two sections to show the newest answered questions separate from the newest unanswered questions.
9. Some of the new search options are good additions. I'd like to combine the user search and the message search. For example, I might like to search for any message from Bilal on DLLs.
10. I had to make this a Top 10 list. I'm impressed by the amount of work that went into the new forums. Keep it up!

Hi..
can you try after re creating bindings for Commit Button Action Listener.(#{bindings.Commit.execute}).

What is the idea of a read only forum about a new product ?

My problem is that lightroom 5 crashes when my sony xperia is connected. this worked in the beta. Searching the web and the adobe page i always land in discussion threads that are read only
Q: what is the idea of a read only forum about a new product?

The Lightroom forum is not read-only (evident as you've just posted a question).
The Beta forums in Adobe Labs are locked because the beta program is now closed. If you arrive in the beta forum because of a Web search, you can't reply to the thread but the homepage (and the Lightroom product page) links you to the correct place.

We have three discussions forums with same subject. whenever a post gets new reply in one forum, it should automatically trigger workflow functionality to check conditions and send the same reply to other synchronized forums.

Hi,
More details about your discussions forum will make others easier to find a corresponding solution on your requirement.
If you mean there are three Discussion Board list waiting for synchronizing, I would suggest you create an Event Receiver for the three Discussion Board list.
Here is a link with code demo about how to copy items from one Discussion Board to another including Replies:

New Post Link Missing

I am signed in in the HP Support Forum.
I added the forum as a trusted site in my IE 8
I need to post a question about Solution Center and my HP Scanner 5590.
The Help systems says to click on the "New Post" Link near the top of the list.
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/forums/searchpage/tab/message?q=solution+center does not contain the mentioned link, nor does http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/forums/searchpage/tab/message.
If I search for "New Post" in the page I get only one match and it is the link for private messages, not for public posts.
What can I do?
This question was solved.

Help, the "New message" link is missing!

We’ve received feedback from some forum members that they are sometimes unable to start a new thread.
They can access the boards, read posts and indeed reply to existing posts, but aren’t actually able to submit a new message.
This is due to how some posters access the boards.
When you click on a category from the forum main page, e.g the Broadband category, you get the option to select which board you want to go into. In this case, the options are:
ADSL/Copper Broadband Speed/Connection Issues
BT Infinity Speed/Connection Issues
Other Broadband Queries
If you select one of these boards, you will be able to see the “New Message” link (along with the posts within that board) and start a new thread.
If however you click on “View All”, at the bottom of the “Recent Topics” section, you’ll see a list of all of the posts in these boards, but you won’t be able to start a new message. This goes for all the other boards on the forum as well.
The screenshot below shows where these links are displayed, and where you need to go:
Thanks @AjayK48 for starting a thread about this issue.

Discussion Forum Portlets - Anyone using in Production?

This is a followup to another post.
Is anyone using the sample Discussion Forum and Discussion Forum Admin portlets provided in WebLogic Portal 8.1 in a production environment? I've already received feedback from one person who had difficulties and decided not to use them, but I wanted to know if there were any success stories.

Bryan,
I also put a lot of weight in Tom’s posts; I am however convinced that contacting Oracle Support is a better solution for direct, bug related questions. I do, for example not doubt that his human tasks did not work when put in parallel flows. There might be workarounds, such as putting the human workflow stuff in a separate service, but to me sounds like a bug and bugs should be reported, analyzed, and fixed.
As you can see from my profile, I do not live in Poland so I do not know about the training situation there, but I have, personally, delivered five SOA Suite classes so far during 2007 and I know that I am not the only one running SOA training in Sweden. I might be wrong, but based on my own experience, I have assumed that the lack of training that Tom is experiencing is due to communication problems, and that contacting Oracle Education would sort things out. (Training in Europe tends to be given in the local language. A quick look at the web shows that the next 5 day SOA Suite training in Poland seems to be scheduled for November 19th.)
On the topic of frequent changes in interfaces as mentioned above, I agree that an update of the table structure in a database must never cause business process updates. If that is the case, the architecture most likely suffers from tight coupling. I never recommend anyone to use adapters direct from BPEL try to but use (coarse gained) services published on the service bus as much as possible to avoid such problems. For an introduction to SOA best practices see (for example) Dave Schaffer’s 7 Steps to SOA in SOA World Magazine.
I am sorry if you feel that my posts are not providing the level of support you where hoping to find. Perhaps it is our expectations community/forums vs official product support that differs. Regarding whether Oracle has figured it out or not, you do not have to trust me – take a look at what InfoWorld or Forrester are saying.

Best, 
Mathias

James, 
Please check your Apex preferences: 
SELECT name, value, pref_desc FROM flows_020100.wwv_flow_platform_prefs; 
(replace flows_020100 by your FLOWS user) and check if the SMTP_HOST_ADDRESS and SMTP_HOST_PORT have the correct values.
Also check the contents of WWV_FLOW_MAIL_LOG and WWV_FLOW_MAIL_QUEUE.
With kind regards,

Difference between the TABs "All Content" and "Discussions" on the new forum?

Hi,
Does anyone know the difference between the TABs "All Content" and "Discussions" on the new forum? They seem to be the same. I'm confused.
Petey

Petey,
Though I was part of the forum update beta, there was some that we could not effectively test, plus some aspects (like "Like"), that some liked, but others did not. That sort of thing happens.
Also, now that we have the full version, and all servers are synced, there will probably be things that the beta testers did not get to experience. We will all be learning, in the process too. Also remember, much of the new forum software was provided by Jive, and though many of us commented (pros and cons), only so much could be addressed. It was not quite like doing a beta on Adobe software, as there was a complete, separate layer in between.
So far, what I see looks close to what we saw a few weeks (months?) ago. Now, I need to really put the real software through its paces, to see what got changed from then, until now.
Good luck,
Hunt

New Discussions forum has down graded my number of posts...

Why oh why do Apple have to fix something that is not broken - I loved the old discussions forum, I am not change adverse however what is the point of changing something which works?? Also, my number of posts have gone down to 15! I am not an Apple newbie and had a lot to say... give me back my original number of posts please!!
I am sure other members feel the same... is there anyone else out there who has noticed that their posts number has gone down? It may sound silly but I think it reflects on the nature of your query and also how your advice is taken up by other users. I definately rely on the number under the name of the poster as an indication of wheather what they are saying is correct!

Weird ... I understand about Reps & levels being (tempoorarily/temporally) 'ou to lunch' but I am puzzled about posts ...
Many others' counts look OK to me (people I'm familiar with, or would consider 'Peers in Posts', obviously .
I appear to have lost many hundreds - who remembers exactly ? It's not the sort of thing I memorize - But it was more 400 than 40... or 800 than 80.
(I have ca. 600 in my mailbox just from my posts - and just from threads I had email Subs to ... so a 2 digit number is fairly unlikely grin)
Perhaps it'll all sort itself out
(I never did much like the way Posts arbitrarily went Offline, anyway - permanently unavailable to searches - so I'd subscribe via email to have my own copy. This made it easier to explain/answer the same complicated question/problem the next 20 times it got asked after the original dropped off the twig. It's not as if the questions & answers don't remain relevant - in many cases, for years afterwards...)
