Add link in Masthead Function Area

Hi Irina,
I do not think that you could use some kind of standard functionality to add a custom link to your portal masthead. I guess you have to modify the com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead.par file in order to achieve your goal. Have a look into this <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?threadID=191891">thread</a>. It contains detailed instructions how to modify the file and might inspire you.
Best regards,

Portal Theme look & feel (Function Links)

Hi Experts,
We are designing a custom Portal theme. In the Masthead there are a number of Function Links which we want to relocate (e.g. Help, Log-off, Personalise).
The standard location of these items is in the center of the Masthead (vertically seen). I want to change the location of these links. They should be moved up let's say 20pixels toward to top of the masthead iView frame.
Does anyone know if the vertical location of these links can be manipulated by using the existing properties within the Theme Editor? I was not able to find suitable properties for this.
If standard is not possible the only way I guess is to change the source code of the masthead iview.
Does anyone has an answers to this or maybe a workaround to accomplish this without having to change the source code?
Thanks in advance.
Thomas

Hi,
If you want to change the alignment then you have to modify the source code. that is headeriview.jsp in masthead par file.

Top level navigation bar: function links

The only function links available are Help and Logoff. How do I configure portal to get the addional links i.e: Personalize? Am I missing a role?

Hi,
I am not certain which role you have currently been assigned, but generally the super admin role is used as an entry point on a default installation to customize and delegate other roles in the Portal.
Personalizing is generally a property which you make available on iView's for users to alter. It can also be hidden etc.
As admin you are required to customize the properties to display portal objects on the navigational bars or other navigational areas. This is done at role, folder, iView level.
Hope this helps.

How i will add new link in masthead iview

Hi,
i want to add a new link in masthead iview,
e.g. i want to add aboutus link .
so what could be the code/procedure for header.jsp.
Please help .
Thanks
Sanjay

Hi Sanjay,
-The three main files in the masthead are HeaderiView.jsp,LogInRedirect.jsp and LogOffConfirmMsg.jsp
-The HeaderiView contains the masthead users see when they are in the portal.
-Once you added your link to the HeaderiView.jsp,upload the par file.
-Once the par file is uploaded to the portal,you need to create a masthead iview based on this par file.
-Then this iView will be used for masthead on the framework page.
-create a folder in portal catalog-right click the folder->create a iView from par->select your own masthead iView->choose next->choose default component and click next->Enter the properties like-iView name,iView ID,prefix,Save as -iView and click next>save.
Here is the important step :
Add the iView to the framework page,then only it will be visible to the end users.
Browse the ramework page being used by the portal in the portal catalog
Right click on he page->edit->Page Layout->Select masthead iView on the framework page and click remove.
now iViews(Right click)->Widgets_masthead->Add iView to page->Delta Link->Position the masthead.->Logoff and logon to the portal.
It should work fine for you now I guess.
Thank you.

Karthick

How to Update Function Link Text in Portal MastHead

Can someone please advise the steps to control the link text in the Function section of the Portal MastHead (e.g. Log Off, Help, etc...).
Thanks for your help!
Scott

If you just want to remove these simple links, you do this within the configuration of the masthead iView:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/97/d4ee3d6434445ae10000000a11405a/content.htm
If you want to change the functions within the portal personalisation:
Look in the 'Portal Personalization' workset of the 'eu_role' . Im assuming that you have the eu_role assigned to the everybody built in standard group.
This workset has all the options within that list.
¡        Portal Theme (page)
¡        Portal Language (page)
¡        User Mapping (page)
¡        User Mapping (Remote iViews) (page)
¡        User Password (page)
¡        User Profile (page)
¡        WorkProtect Mode (page)
You can modify this, or copy it and modify it as you please.

Need to "move" the Help|Personalize|Logoff links below masthead

I need to move the links Help/Personalize/Logoff from the masthead to below the masthead. This is what I did:
1. hid the links in the masthead by using the "Show..." properties of the masthead iView
2. created a new iview with the links Help/Persoanlize/Logoff and add it to the framework page under the masthead. This iView is based on the masthead iView source code where I removed the banner and welcome areas.
But when I did that, the logoff functionality stopped working. Do you have any other ideas on how to achieve this without impacting the logoff functionality?
Thanks in advance,
Tiberiu

Hi Tiberiu,
Change the masthed par file for this. It is a simple process deploy the par in to NWDS and change th .jsp file which is structured in HTML table format.
<table>
 <tr>
 <td> </td>
 <td> </td>
 </tr>
<table>
here everything is shown in single row.
just make a new row <tr> </tr>
cut the code responsible for logoff/personalize and paste it in the new row.
(Simply, change it as u like)
deploy it in portal and create and iview for it add it to the Default FrameWork Page at top and make the old masthead disable/remove it.
Try it,
MrChowdary.

Problem in Adding link to Masthead

Hi All,
I am a beginner in Portals
I want to add an extra link to the masthead.
For this I have done folowing steps
1. Masthead PAR download
2. Import this PAR into NWDS
3. Make changs in portalapp.xml - Adding Component Profile properties for standard Who's Who iview
whoIsWhoLocation=pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.bp_folder/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.iviews/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.employee_search/com.sap.pct.erp.ess.whoiswho
WhoIsWhoText=Who's Who
4.In lightheaderiview.jsp file, I have made the changes to display the link Who's Who
5. Save
6. Quick PAR Upload was not working. so I did the PAR Upload from Portal
i.e. System Administartion->Support->Portal Runtime->Administartive Console->Upload
7. Created iview from the deployed PAR file
8. Save
The problem is that when I preview the iview I am getting the exception.
When I go to nwa and see the logs ..I get the error
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sapportals.portal.navigation.LightHeaderiView
What might be the reason?
Please help me with this.

Sometimes Jar files may be missed.
check whether you have the com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead_core.jar file in the path portalinf/private/exlib/
Also you can add the the link in the Headerview.jsp and light_headerview.jsp direclty.

How does one save a website as a functional - links enabled including images PDF

Hello Friends,
Can someone please tell me:
Using FF version 3.6.13 - is there a way to save a website in a 'functional' PDF format. Functional meaning the links will work and the images will be illustrated.
Many thanks in advance for any / all info you can share.
David

No, you would need an addon that provides PDF functionality in or through Firefox.
See this [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search/?q=PDF&cat=all&lver=any&pid=1&sort=&pp=20&lup=&advanced= AMO search] for that type of addon.
Any particular reason for it being PDF format, specifically? 
MHTML is more of a "web browser" format for saving web pages to a single file. Most web browsers have the capability of reading that file format, and some will even save to that format. For Firefox there are two addons that will add MHTML capabilites.
UnMHT extension:

URL Links in MastHead

Hi
I have a requirement. I need to include certain url links in the form of images in my masthead iview. When I click on the image it takes to me a different site.
Is it possible to add my own images, if so where is that I can add the images.
Regards
Senthil

Hi Senthil,
Yes it is.
The way is to import the existing masthead, make your changes, and re-deploy it (in a different par name, in order not to override the original masthead).
steps for importing the existing masthead:
1. Administration -> Support -> Support Desk -> Portal Runtime -> Browse deployment
2. navigate to ROOT/WEB-INF/deployment/temp
3. download com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead.par.bak
4. import to developer studio (File -> import -> par)
After redeploying the new masthead, you should create an iView based on the new par, and replace the original masthead iView in the Framework Page that is used in the current Portal Desktop (If you didn't change it it's the Default Framework Page).
Hope that helps,
Yoav.

How to include Picture link in Masthead?

Hi all,
I want to put some picture links on the masthead.
Under the branding image, if I click on a particular image, it should lead to an HTML page.
Any thoughts on how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance.

If you have NWDS, it makes the work easier. You can import your downloaded par file, make the changes in the JSP and export it from NWDS itself causing it to be deployed.
If you don'y then Navigate to System Admin -> Support -> Portal Runtime -> Administration Console -> Archive Uploader. Here you select your renamed par file and click upload.
As I mentioned regarding reflection of changes in JSP. Make an iView out of your renamed par file after deployment.
Select your Default Framework Page in Portal Content. Add your newly created iView to this. Mark as invisible your original masthead iView. Add this framework page to your desktop and assign the desktop to your user. You can see the changes.
Or better still if you want quick checks. Just keep previewing the iView you create out of your new par file. That serves the purpose.
Hope this helps!!

PDF/A results in non-functional links in Table of Contents -- Normal?

Hey,
Got a quick Q here - I recently converted a .docx into the PDF/A 1-b (2005) standard, but for whatever reason, save the computer that did the actual conversion, the links in my Table of Contents no longer function.
If I use Preflight to remove the PDF/A tag, the links work OK. Is there something about PDF/A that removes linking functionality that I'm not aware of? These links on my document simply move to different parts of the document, nothing too fancy.
Thanks.

Hmmm. I hadn't heard of this limitation. Indeed, http://www.pdfa.org/2011/08/pdfa-–-a-look-at-the-technical-side/ says "With regard to hyperlinks, the special ‘Link’ annotation type is permitted with or without activated ‘Appearance’. " Maybe this document is being generated with a different kind of annotation.

Firefox with Earthlink Webmail; Cannot send functional links

When using Firefox with Earthlink Webmail, a link typed into a message is not identified in print as a link, and does not operate as a link.
Internet Explorer+EarthlinkWebmail: Links included in written messages function properly
Earthlink support seems to know nothing of the problem and is unable to provide any solutions at all.
I like Firefox very much and am displeased that I may have to go back to IE
I would like to hear comments on this subject.

This is likely a limitation of the JavaScript code used by websites to automatically create a hyperlink that works for IE and possibly Google Chrome, but doesn't support Firefox.
In that case you need to look for a button on the button bar (toolbar) above the editor text area where you compose the new mail message to create a live, clickable, hyperlink.
There is usually a button bar with buttons to format text like Bold and Italic just above the text area where you compose and edit the message text. 
That toolbar may have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button). 
You can select the link text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink. 
If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each (e.g. Insert hyperlink).
