Looking for a simple discussion tool for my portal

i don't want to use the collaboration server since it is added way to many extra nobs and configuration. Also Collaboration Server 4.0 will expose my list of users to everyone which i do not want to happen.
So i am looking for a portlet or set of portlet that will allow me to host discussions on my portal. I want something simple for the users to use and something with good security.
Has anyone implemeneted such a portlet?

Hi Michael,
If your issues with collaboration or simply issues with the collaboration UI, I'd encourage you to look at using the new EDK PRC Collaboration APIs. You can use these APIs along with Collaboration 4.0.1 to make you own portlets leveraging the Collab Service. As a result you can built your own portlets powered by the collaboration discussion enginer. Some developer docs here:

  • Looking for Enterprise Portal training

    I am looking for recommendations, for Portal Admin training (EP6).  We are about to upgrade from EP5 to EP6, and take on a few new projects on the new platform.  I would be interested in topics such as installation, security, deploying iviews, system configuration, user management, monitoring and tuning. 
    I am NOT looking for developer training, I am in Basis and we have other developers that will write the code.
    Thanks,

    I am new to SAP Enterprise Portal (NetWeaver) and am looking for advice on SAP courses to take.
    I am looking to start with SAPEP (SAP NetWeaver Portal Fundamentals).  Do you know of anyone that has taken this course and could you tell me if it is beneficial to take as a preview to JA100 (SAP J2SE fundamentals)?  Can I continue with the Java courses without this class, etc?
    Is SAPEP worth the costs?
    Any advice would be much appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Need a Business Package for Vendor Portal with ECC as backend ?

    Hello,
    We are looking for a portal business package which can talk to backend ECC system and has the functionality to create/change/display POu2019s, Invoices, Inventory and reporting functionality. All this functionality needs to be available to Vendors via an External Facing Netweaver Portal.
    I have gone through the list of BPu2019s available at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/contentportfolio and found some BPu2019s available for Buyers which has the above required functionality, however it has exposed ECC transactions directly via Transaction iViews which we cannot expose to Vendors.
    Also there is one Business Package called Supplier Collaboration which delivers the required functionality, but unfortunately we do not have SRM/SUS components in the project.
    Please let me know if you know business package to implement or if not best practices to achieve the functionality.
    Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards,
    Seshu.

  • Looking for a simple, standalone desktop app for web stats

    Well, I see they've changed the forums here again. SIGH.
    Anyway, a certain web host has eliminated AWStats from it's shared hosting. So I used Webmaster Tools. And now they've changed, and no longer display the simple visitors and hits. Google Analytics is way too complex for what I need, as are many of the stats programs I've looked into.
    I can download the daily Apache log files, that's no problem. Just looking for a small standalone program to import these and show the data like AWStats.  Any suggestions? The only other options would be to go to a different web host. Not a big deal overall, but I would rather not deal with the hassle, especially the migrating the database.

    Not sure of standalone 'desktop' apps. But check out http://www.openwebanalytics.com/ and Web Analytics in Real Time | Clicky  - they're both very intuitive and easy to use with a lot more simplified stats than Google Analytics.

  • Looking for simple timeline/calendar screenlet/widget.

    Good day gentlemen,
    I'm looking for a simple screenlet or widget for linux that is a calendar, but designed to be more of a timeline of past events than a reminder of future events. For my specific purpose in this case I'm trying to lose weight. So I'm seeking an application to record my previous weight and other notes about what i ate, and how much and what kind of nutrients i had that day. I would like to keep it in a calendar or timeline like format. Something easy to the point where if my buddy asked me how much i weighed last week or what i did last week, i can simply click on the date and all my notes appear about my weight, and what i ate, etc. Also simple to input data like clicking on the date and entering a note about that day. Something easy to use and sort of integrated into the desktop such as a screenlet or widget, so I don't have to open up a separate window to view these records. I did a little research and was able to find a few things, Rainlendar being one of them. But I feel most of what i found are way more complicated for my purpose. Would any of you happen to have any suggestions on what application would most suit my purpose in its most simplistic form? thanks in advance for your kind and prompt response
    Sincerely,
    Sicariuxs

    There are, apparently, quite a variety of tools just for this purpose.  here's one.  That was just the first one up from a search, I don't actually know anything about it.  But overall, I'd suggest you actually narrow your search as there are tools targetted specifically for such goals.

  • Looking for SIMPLE time tracking app

    Hi all
    I'm looking for a really simple 'retrospective' time sheet app - wondering if anyone knows one?
    I've seen literally hundreds, but they all want you to 'click to start the clock' and then click to end it. This doesn't work for me, as I spend only about 25% of my time in front of the computer.
    What I'm looking for is something that I can put all my client contacts in, then separately link projects to those clients. Then at the end of each day I can quickly recall what I did during the day and assign time to each project.
    Most apps want you to assign time to each project as you go through the day, so its relatively painless to switch projects. However when you do it all at the end of the day, you don't want to keep entering the date, you just want to enter the start/end time, and what project it was. More like a journal entry I guess.
    Then at the end of the month it would print a report that groups the hours worked on each project so that you can review them and create an invoice (or in my case send to my accounts clerk who makes the invoice for me).
    Any ideas from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi shannonbray, welcome to the AppleWorks forum, which is intended for discussions of Apple's now-legacied productivity suite called AppleWorks.
    One could develop such a template using the spreadsheet or database modules of AW separately or in combo,but it doesn't sound as if that's your aim. I'm sure clever types have done such things, and perhaps shared them to the AWUserGroups and such, and I hope they note your post and reply. There are certainly numerous clever folks who follow this forum, and they may have pointers to other apps for you, but essentially I think you've posed the wrong question in the wrong place.

  • Looking for a simple database.

    I am looking for a very simple data base program to organize email addresses for mailings that we do for our business. I was using numbers but with the recent upgrade it does not seem like the best option. A free program would be my preference. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    The free sqlite3 database comes with OS X Mavericks and earlier OS X releases. The default interface is the Terminal, as shown in the following. It assumes you know the Structured Query Language (SQL).
    /usr/bin/sqlite3 mydatabase.db
    sqlite> .help
    <sqlite>.quit
    man sqlite3
    You might consider a proper visual interface that sits on top of sqlite3 from Apple's App Store. Base is an example of one tool. There are others. These are much easier to tolerate for some than the command line interface in Terminal.

  • Photographer moving from CS3 to CS5.5 looking for discussion of new features

    Hi,
    I'm a photographer (not retoucher or designer). Just moved over to CS5.5 from CS3 due to the price changes that will happen in the next upgrade. I'm finding the changes quite difficult to navigate. I know there's lots of info out there, but really, there's too much! I'm looking for a good discussion, video, print, whatever, of the main changes in workflow between the versions. I'm pretty old school in my PS use. I use Curves a lot, set skin tones with CMYK numbers etc. My work flow is probably closest to that used by many beauty retouchers. One of the big changes thats throwing, me for instance, is that I can no longer simply cmd click on a eyedropper target on skin then cmd 1, 2, 3 on the RGB curves layers to set points to adjust colour. 
    Links, suggestions of video's etc much appreciated.

    One of the big changes thats throwing, me for instance, is that I can no longer simply cmd click on a eyedropper target on skin then cmd 1, 2, 3 on the RGB curves layers to set points to adjust colour.
    In the Adjustments Panel it’s alt-2 (composite) and alt-3 (red), alt-4 (green), alt-5 (blue) to select the individual channels now.
    And command-shift-click to set the points on the R-, G- and B-curves.
    You may want to consider setting the Adjustments Panel to »Auto Select Targeted Adjustment Tool«.
    One can still trigger the old modal dialog via a Script, but it might be better to just get accustomed to the Adjustments Panel.
    You may be able to download the Help as pdf for CS4 and CS5, their respective »What’s new?«-sections should provide an overview of the accumulated new features.

  • Looking for a Tool

    I am an IT consultant with a client that conducts a wide range of activities including research, education, marketing, and sales. There are a variety of legal, regulatory and ethical standards that apply to these activities. Our task is to design/develop a system that allows the monitoring and tracking of our compliance in each of these area.
    I am looking for a tool that would allow me to design and develop the application quickly.
    Thanks very much for your help,
    Bruce Liang

    Bruce,
    There are several rapid application development (RAD) tools, most of which can be used to develop applications against an Oracle database. Oracle's offerings in this area are:
    Designer: This is our premium application development tool, suitable for extremely large, complex projects
    Developer: This applications development tool allows you to quickly create forms based applications.
    JDeveloper: Allows you to create Java based applications.
    The ramp-up time on the first tool might eliminate it from consideration (Designer has so many capabilities that we have an entire curriculum devoted to helping application developers get the most out of it). I've thrown together quick, relatively simple applications using Developer in a matter of hours, but you will find that any tool will be slow going at first until you get used to its environment.
    Of the non-Oracle offerings, my favorite has to be Inprise's Delphi. Like Oracle's Developer, it takes a while to get used to the development environment but I haven't seen too many things I wanted to do that couldn't be done in Delphi.

  • I am looking for a sql analyzer tool.

    I am looking for a sql analyzer tool that can analyze the speed of two queries...

    You mean like autotrace, set timing on, or alter session set events '10046 trace name context forever, level 12' , or you can write your own test harness. Depends upon what you want, exactly. Wall time, cpu time, average over 100 executions? Max time during busiest time of day in the database. Min time during quietest time of day in the database.
    A simple test harness like this might be sufficient.
    declare
    l_start number;
    begin
    l_start := dbms_utility.get_time;
    -- do your query here
    dbms_output.put_line( (dbms_utility.get_time-l_start) || ' hsecs' );
    end;

  • Looking for a Calendar w/ Management Tool

    Hi, I am looking for a calendar creator that comes with some sort of Management Tool so that once I have adapted the code to fit a site, my clients can easily add events without messing with the code. Does anyone know of one or use one that they like?

    You don't have order iPhoto books, prints, etc. from the US if you're in the UK or Ireland. Those are printed in-country; you can see pricing here. So there may be VAT, but there won't be any import/release fees.
    But as has been pointed out already, iPhoto is a Mac-only application. So unless you have access to a Mac you can use, you'll have to look for an equivalent application/service for Windows.

  • Looking for a more suitable animation tool

    I've been creating animations from sprites in After Effects, with mixed results.  The input is a number of pixel art sprites (exported from elsewhere), and the output is a video, characters running around and interacting.  I have AFX doing quite a lot, but it's very awkward and I'm pretty sure it's the wrong tool for the job.  Can anyone either suggest better approaches, or more suitable software?  I'll describe what I'm doing now:
    - Many sprites are bodies or heads to combine, eg. a smiling or angry faces and walking or standing bodies.  I set the head position for each body sprite, so any head fits in the right place on any body (trivial rigging), then apply it with a script, so I can change the body and the head moves to the right place automatically.
    - Some sprites have multiple layers.  For example, while heads are normally on top of bodies, a body may have an arm raised, which needs to be above the head instead of below it.  I can create the extra layer for the body separately, and it works for any head.
    - I can set the draw order per-layer.  Usually, one character and all of its parts is drawn on top of another--body1, head1, body2, head2.  But, if two characters collide, handshake, or interact in other complex ways, I may want to draw both bodies, and then both heads, even though the heads and bodies are still anchored normally.  Some sprites may have multiple layers, eg. body, head, hands, legs.  (Z position hack...)
    - Individual layers can be adjusted separately, eg. to adjust the default head position downwards to give a nod.
    - Some sprites are hue shifted (hair color, clothing color) or have more complex adjustments applied, so I can reuse more sprites.
    (I'm only describing what I'm doing and not how.  I wrote more detail about what I'm actually doing in AFX and the specific issues I'm having, but it was too long and people can probably already guess the practical issues of using AFX like this.  I'll post more info if anybody asks.)
    The result is functional, but a real hassle to actually work with.  AFX is a compositing and effects tool and it's not really designed for animations, and only its scripting support has let me abuse it this much.  I don't know of a better tool, though--searches for animation tools mostly come up with things like Spine (authoring individual models for importing into games), and nothing suitable for creating complex video animations from sprite sets.
    There are probably many tools to do small pieces of this (sprite animation sequences, effects, scene animation, camera), but I'd really like to not split into a multi-tool workflow, since I want to experiment freely with a scene, not lay out an entire scene and then create it start to finish.  Does anyone have any suggestions (or better places to ask)?

    There are many other DTP applications:

  • Looking for a simple Text App with options like columns, lists etc

    I am looking for an app that lets me do simple things like type lists of things , create columns etc . PLEASE tell me that my Mac Pro with Snow Leopard already has the ability to do this somewhere and that i dont need to buy "iWork" or "Excell" to perform this basic function. Thanks

    If you're talking about a simple word processor, then Bean (http://www.bean-osx.com/Bean.html) will be worth a look. It's simple, has the ability to create text columns, and best of all, is free!
    NeoOffice (Mac port of OpenOffice) is fantastic if you need a complete Office suite (http://www.neooffice.org) - also free. Its spreadsheet app is called Calc.
    Mac Mail and iCal can do 'To Do' lists, and there's also plenty of free apps that do simple to-do type lists.
    When you mention 'lists' the app that comes to mind is OmniOutliner (http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnioutliner/) but it's not free.
