ITEM REGIONS

Greetings,
One question, I'm using a page template it has a item region with a page path, the following region has subpages links and the last one has an item region in order to allow the end users publish items.
The problem comes here, when they publish an item in the page that item appear in all the sub pages, why??
I need that when they publish in a page or sub pages the items stay in the page they published, how can i do that??
Thanks in advance

Frederico -
The behaviour you are describing is not how a page built on a page template should work. Are you sure when Items are being added to the page that they are being added to the page and not the page template? If the items were being added to the page template then the items would show on all pages using the template.
Regards,
Candace

  • Customize display of category group names in item regions (902)

    Multi-level categorization is inconsistent within different portal contexts. Flat category structures work fine but sub-categories do not.
    For example let's define a set of categories: foo, foo/bar, test, test/foo, abc, abc/bar
    where bar is a sub-category of foo and so forth.
    The additem wizard shows the category in the form: category/sub-category/sub-sub-category/etc which is the preferred approach.
    However, an item region having Group By Category and "Display Group By Banner" checked is not the same. Here the group-by-text only shows the end-category name (not the full category/sub-category); i.e., only shows the last group "category" without the context of the full category.
    Want to show items in following style:
         foo
              item1
         foo/bar
              item2
         test/foo
              item3
         abc/bar
              item4
    As opposed to:
         foo
              item1
         bar
              item2
         foo
              item3
         bar
              item4
    Likewise, in the Advanced search the list of categories to search for are:
         foo
         .bar
         test
         .foo
         abc
         .bar
    What are some best practices to customize the display of custom items with sub-categories showing the full category/sub-category in 9iAS 9.0.2?
    Explicitly creating a flat category structure with '/' in the names doesn't seem the best use of item categories.
    And it looks like the content area SDK won't be available for a little while.

    Hi Jason
    The only way to show the path of your nested categories in the display banner is to name the subcatgory with the path information (i.e. 'test/foo' not 'foo'). The problem with showing the full path is scalability - rendering a deeply nested tree in the display banner or as an attribute would cause real problems. It was a design decision to go with the way that it is. If you feel strongly that Development should reconsider this decision, please feel free to log an enhancement request at:

  • Hide empty item regions

    I want to hide item regions which do contain item regions, but aren't always displayed based on certain conditions. These conditions result runtime in empty item regions. How can I hide these?
    Regards

    If I understand you correctly, you have:
    - An advanced search area/page with search items displayed in stacked regions
    - A result table/form where you want to hide those stacked regions
    To hide those regions, I would not use EL but modify the template that contains the regions in the first place. So look at the generated page, see which templates are used to generate the regions and alter them in such a way that only the advanced search regions will be rendered, and the form regions will not be in the page at all. The JHS developers guide explains more about templating.

  • Item Region: 'Group/Sort by' issues

    I've got some serious issues organizing and sorting items on a page.
    If I select 'Group by Item Type' and 'display the Group by banner', items are grouped by Simple File, Simple Text, Simple URL.
    I am unable to change this sorting order and unable to change which itemstype should be displayed in the 'group by' banner ?!?
    I have hidden these 'Simple' itemtypes, but they are still displayed. I changed order of Item Types in the Pagegroup configuration but the sorting order does not change.
    Is this documented behaviour or a bug?
    Furthermore, I cannot sort Items by date from most recent to olders. ('Group by Date' orders from oldest to most recent. 'Sort by' has no option for 'Date') How can I workaround and sort items from most recent to oldest???
    NOTE: Pages are based on templates. Portal version 9.0.4.99

    hi paul,
    one workaround to sort items by date is to use an auto-query search portlet to render the items on your page. to do that you have to add a custom search portlet and configure it to be an auto-query portlet. in the results display tab you can specify the order by option. for the end-user the auto-query portlet looks exactly the same as if he was viewing an item region.

  • Customize, collpase and remove links in item regions

    Can you collapse/expand, remove, or customze and item region.
    It appears pretty straight forward for portlets but I do not see this feature for item regions?
    Please advise and thank you!
    Sue

    As a work around, for the regions you want to collapse ... you can create a new page with the 1 region on it. Expose this new page as a page portlet, then place the page portlet (which is really just the one region) on the page as a portlet and you can expand/collapse, etc.
    If you need to enable content contributors for this region, click the edit pencil for the page portlet and enable the Edit Link for the page portlet.
    Hope this helps,
    Candace

  • Newbie Q - Absolute position of items / regions

    Hello,
    Is it possible to set an absolute position for items / regions?
    I'd like to be able to display an item at coordinates (x,y) on screen, but all I could find was how to position my items relatively to other items / regions.
    Please help.
    Thanks.
    Anat :o)

    Hi Anat,
    Yes you can absolutely position regions.
    In the Region Header enter in something like:
    <div style="position:absolute; top:100px; left:100px;">
    and put the following in the Region Footer:
    </div>
    You will need to experiment with this to see what affect this has on the rest of the page. There is a discussion on this forum about using DIV tags instead of TABLE tags as a means of laying out pages - not sure how far this has got yet, but it would involve rewriting the page templates.

  • R2 - Changing Item Regions to Portlet Regions

    Can you change an item region to a portlet region?
    thx

    Thank you, Michael!
    I was JUST researching to reply to my own comment....
    Yes! You can change the item region to a portlet region as you said. I was in a template structured page...
    can't do it then unless you change the template, of course.
    Sorry and thanks for your attention to the question!

  • Preserving item regions while customizing

    Hi,
    I have already built an application using JHS wherein I have 5 groups (1 parent and 4 children). In the parent group I have 3 item regions. These are working fine. Now I want to add 2 more items to my parent entity object. I have a few questions on the way I should approach the above activity:
    1. Do I need to use JAG again on the entire application in order to bring these 2 items into the view controller or is there another way of doing this?
    2. If I use JAG, how do I ensure that my item regions created earlier remain after running JAG?
    I tried the possibility of using the itemRegion.vm template for this. However, it seems that the vm file needs to know in advance which of the items belong to a particular region.
    Thank you,
    Amit

    Amit,
    This is documented in section 4.4.11 of the developers guide.
    Select the group and click on the refresh button in the application definition editor. Two new items will be created for your new attributes.

  • Create a new item in iProcurement Receive items Region

    HI,
    I am trying to create a new search Message Input LOV called Supplier Part Number in the 'Receive items: Select items' Internet Procurement page
    Scope Region: /oracle/apps/icx/por/rcv/webui/IcxPorRcvSrchPG.RcvItemQuery
    Document Name /oracle/apps/icx/por/rcv/webui/IcxPorRcvSrchPG
    Function POR:Receive Orders
    Site Include
    Organization HMPS
    Responsibility PS PO Internet Procurement
    I want to create a new Message Input LOV under Message Component Layout:
    (SearchMessageComponentLayout).
    When I go to create an item I need to enter an External LOV but I am not sure if there is one available and if there is one available where is it located.
    For example another item in this region called the Supplier Number has the following External LOV Region:
    /oracle/apps/icx/lov/webui/ShipmentNumberLovRN
    I know that Supplier Part number is standard because it appears in the search results table region on the same page.
    Any information at all would be highly appreciated.

    I fear if it is available....!
    Supplier Part Number unlike ShipmentNumber is a base attribute in iP.
    You might want to create a new lov region and a VO (selecting the distinct SPN values from ICX_CAT_ITEMS_B).
    Yes, the Search Results table has SPN, but its not an LOV there...!
    HTH.

  • Execute JavaScript from Item Region Button

    How do I execute a JavaScript using a button displayed among this region's items?
    When I create a "button in a region position", I am given the "Optional URL Redirect" which can be used to specify the JavaScript as the URL Target. This option is not available when the button is created to be displayed among the region's items - and I don't understand why there is this limitation on Item Level Buttons.

    Scott,
    I have no idea how I got this new OTN Id? Tell me what you know!
    I signed on using what I believe is my regular Email Address, but I am no longer attached to the old OTN Id. And I no longer have the gold medal next to my name. Isn't that sad :(
    I really ticks me that we are still (after how many years with Oracle) unable to change our Email Address and keep the same account. What is that with Oracle? Can't anyone teach those people good design (like don't use an externally supplied key as the internal identifier for your customer). I recently sold my Web Domain, and so my Email Address will soon change. The new owner is allowing me to keep my Email Address until Feb 2008.

  • Edit link in item region portlet is displayed with unwanted banner

    I have several item repositories in the form of pages published as portlets. When adding these portlets I often check the option to display the edit link. When the link is displayed on the page it always shows up with a banner in a completely different color than what is set in the page style. How do I get rid of this, or where can i find the default setting for this so I can hard code it to white or something?

    You cannot change the style of the edit banner in the page portlet.

  • Sorting items in a region with more than one column

    I have an item region that is set up to have 2 columns. When I sort by title, the items are re-sorted in alphabetical order from left to right and then down. This is not very intuitive. Is there a way to have it sort from top to bottom and then left to right so that they will be in order as you read down a single column? Right now my work around is to create two regions without banners side by side and then manually put the items in order. Thanks.

    hi,
    unfortunately you cannot change the sort order in a way that the items are first sorted down on the first column and then continued in second column.

  • Limiting items displayed in a region (902)

    I want to limit the number of items displayed in an item region in Portal 902 so that a next and previous button to appear (like they did for categories and perspective portlets in 309) so that the full list can be navigated through without having a massive scrollable HTML page displayed.
    I thought this was going to be a feature in 902, but I cannot seem to find it.
    Cheers,
    John

    I don't remember hearing that this was going to be a feature for item regions.
    You can use the custom search portlet to autoquery a list of items. Set the maximum number of items in the result list, and the portlet will pageinate the overflow.

  • Session state of page item different from one region to another region

    hi,
    on one particular page I have two regions. A page item (LOV pop-up) is set in the first region. I leave this region with a button and jump back with a branch to the same page. The page item has now the selected value (as is shown by session state window). So far so good.
    The second region (SQL query type) uses this page item. However, for some reason the page item is NULL in that second region.
    Can anyone explain this behavior ?
    ron

    thanks Joel,
    I did already what you suggested. The title in region 2 is evaluated to the same value as in region 1.
    The SQL query (that actually runned with identical syntax before) is:
    select bla from blatable where bla = :P920_RU
    this generates:
    report error:
    ORA-12801: error signaled in parallel query server P000
    ORA-01741: illegal zero-length identifier
    So apperently the bind variable is evaluted to (or cached as) NULL.
    I noticed something strange in the session window. There are several page items in the application. All of them are listed in the 'Session State' region. The page item that makes problems is the only one that is also listed in the 'Page Items' region. It is even listed when I start the session window from another page. Weird.
    any other ideas ?
    Actually, how could you possibly clear session state between rendering two regions ?

  • Wrapping items in regions

    I have created a page with some item regions on it. I have placed some text items in the region. When I make my explorer window smaller, the text items ar placed on different lines. I want it to stay on one line. I can create a table with nowrap for the text items but if I add a basic search item, I have the same problem. Is there any solution to this ?
    Thx,
    Dirk

    One trick I have used in the past is to place a transparent 1 pixel tall gif image in the item region. Make the gif as wide as you want. This will force the region to be at least as wide as the image, giving the other content the space it needs so that it does not wrap.
    Hope this helps,
    Candace
