Moving a folder, Linking between content areas

I have 2 problems:
1) So far we developed all our content in a single content area. We would now like to split the information into multiple content areas. The MOVE or COPY command on the folder only allows me to copy within a content area. I have hundreds of documents to move. Is there any way i can move a folder to a different content area?
2) What is the best way to link a folder from 1 content area to a folder in another content area? I found that the FOLDER LINK ITEM allows me to connect only within a content area.
(I would prefer not to use an URL since the content publishers may not be able to construct complicated paths or the paths may change leading to broken links.)

1) The only way to do this currently is to create an export of the content area, import it back into the portal and remove the duplicate content. We are planning a bulk action feature in a future release that would allow you do to selectively copy/move one or more folders into a new content area.
2) Currently folder links are scoped within a content area; the only option is to link to the folder through a URL folder type. If you use the generated URL that contains the folder ID, you shouldn't run into any problems if the target folder is moved. I have submitted an enhancement request to extend the folder link to 'remote' folders outside of the 'home' content area.

Do you mean that no matter what folder the link points at, it only goes to the root folder of the target folder's content area?

exactly. i have no more acces to folders in the content area.

Link to content area from a folder portlet

We have deployed a folder portlet and a perspective portlet on a portal page. Each portlet is part of a small region on the page and rather than navigate through the folders in the portlet, we want to open the folder in the content area. So when a user selects the folder link in the folder portlet, the folder in the content area is opened.
At present the sub-folders are displayed in the small portlet region until we select an item which opens in a new window...
Thanks

Unfortunately, the only way to do this would be to not show the sub-folder region and add URL items in another region that link to the folder page in question.

How can URL links in Content Area be periodically checked ??

Is there an automated way an to check for bad URL links in Content Areas??

Guy,
You should be able to browse through Oracle9iAS Portal with any link checker available on the market. Some products may only let you check public content.
We have plans to add this functionality to the product directly in a future release.
Good luck,
Rich

Link between Business area and Material master

Hi guys
Is there a link between Busines area and material master, i am getting an error when I am trying to Move part of material stock from unrestricted stock to Project stock by 411/Q.
Error
Business area xx changed to yy
Ideas?
sam

Hi
Yes Business area has a link with MMR
Business area determination is through by three rules
1. Plant and item division
2. Sales area( sales orgdistribution channeldivision )
3. Sales org, distribution channel and item division
Here item division means the division in MMR that is basic data 1 tab and sales org 1 tab
This division field forms the main link between Business area and MMR

Difference between content area page and page

Can someone point me to doc or tell me what is the difference
between content area page created in Content Area Manager and
the page created in create page tool ?
I'm really confused.
Thanks.
Regards,
Maggie

Essentially they're the same.
The CA page get's implicitly created when you create the CA
because architecturally when we display content for you to work
with we need a place to post the navigator portlet and the
content portlet.
In the next release this will change, there will be only one
type of page, and you will be able to add content and/or
portlets to it.

Link to content area - portlet not available

I have a link to a content area in that I open from another application. Occassionally, I get a "portlet not available" message. Is this related to navigating directly to the document repository? It works most of the time.
So 3 questions:
Is it acceptable to navigate directly to the content area? (My users then log on and store documents)
Am I getting the "portlet not available" message because of navigating to the content area this way?
Is there another reason I'm getting this message?
Thank you

Unfortunately, the only way to do this would be to not show the sub-folder region and add URL items in another region that link to the folder page in question.

Link to Content Area from ASP page brings up default page

I have a link on an ASP to the content area. When the user clicks on the link, he/she is required by the portal to provide their username/password. After entering the correct information, the users are displayed their default page NOT taken to the content area.
Any ideas?

Unfortunately, the only way to do this would be to not show the sub-folder region and add URL items in another region that link to the folder page in question.

Cannot publish a folder in my content area as a portlet

All,
Has anyone out there experienced or encountered the following problem depicted below. If yes, please let me know what you did or what steps/procedures you implemented to resolve this problem.
1. Go to content area an click the "Edit Folder" link.
2. Click the "Create Folder" link an select "container" as your folder type.
3. Click the next button and enter your folder display name and internal name. Leave the Category combo box as is General).
4. Click the finish button.
5. Edit the new folder.
6. Under the "Portlet Properties" section, set the "publish as portlet" checkbox.
7. Click the "Apply" or "Ok" button.
When I click the "apply" or "Ok" button, I receive the following error message:
Error: (WWS-00000)
Copyright) 2001, Oracle Corporation. All Rights Reserved
Location: PORTAL30.wwv_main.main?p_language=us&p_cornerid=11470&p_edit=1&p_siteid=35&p_currcornerid=11470&p_calledfrom=1
I then click the "back" link on this error page that takes me back to the folder properties page. When I click the "apply" or "ok" button again, I am taken back to my content area page, which is the normal way for this process to work.
When I try adding a "URL" item to this folder, I get a blank page after hitting OK.
Next, I then try to add this folder as a portlet on my page. This folder portlet does not appear in portlet repository.
I subsequently go to the portlet repository and click the "refresh" link. I again encounter the following error message:
Error: (WWS-00000)
Copyright) 2001, Oracle Corporation. All Rights Reserved
Location: http://www.reeis.usda.gov/servlet/page?_pageid=52&_dad=portal30&_schema=PORTAL30&_type=site&_fsiteid=2&_fid=1&_fnavbarid=1&_fnavbarsiteid=2&_fedit=0&_fmode=2&_fdisplaymode=1&_fcalledfrom=1&_fdisplayurl=
Oracle support is currently working on this problem through metalink. But, if anyone out there has encountered this problem and had it resolved, can you please forward your solution to me.
This is very urgent.
Abrom

In the Catalog, select the folder for the report(s) you want to update in the Folders pane. It should then appear in the Tasks pane (bottom left) with some options.
Select 'Permissions' and make sure that 'Hidden' attribute is unchecked. That worked for me.
There's also a 'Show Hidden Items' check box at the top right of the Catalog area that should be checked to view the filters in the Catalog area (rather than when ediiting a report).

Administration link in Content Area

Hi,
I understabd that 3.0.9 can disable Admin Link on the top right hand portion.
I have successfully install 3.0.9 on Solaris, how do I disable the Admin Link ?
regards

Alvin,
Are you taking about the link on the edit mode of a folder? If so, that link cannot be removed.
In any case, the contents of the administration page is security sensitive will fewer links for users with fewer privileges.

Opening KM links in content area instead of new window?

Hi,
We're having problems with the Resource Renderer option: Target Window Type which we - according to SAP's official documentation - need to set to self for KM links to open in the content area instead of popping up in a new window. However, this does not seem to work.
Tried looking through the already existing threads of the forum and there are several older threads concerning the issue but no solution (that I could find, anyway).
Any suggestions? We're on 7.01, SP 6.
Kind regards,
Rasmus
A short update: The parameter actually works when setting it for the ressource renderer of one of SAP's standard layout-sets, for instance 'AdminExplorer', but it only works for layout-sets including both a tree view and a folder view navigation (and in this case only for the folder view navigation). I cannot seem to get it to work on simple lists! It seems that the Layout Controller defined on the layout-set has control over the "Target Window Type" parameter...
But I still need it for simple lists. HELP.
Edited by: Rasmus Røjkjær Ørtoft on Oct 15, 2010 4:38 PM

Hi Rasmus
I haven't tried to develop a new layout controller, but as I recall the layout controller only controls the areas you divide your collections into. I don't think is has anything to do with the rendering of documents (and navigation). But perhaps the different areas of a layout controller can be referenced.
I would investigate the following:
1)
You could consider developing a property renderer (and reference that in the displayed properties of the collection renderer) that opens the document in the content window. If navigation is controlled by portal events, the back button in the browser will not work, thus disrupting the user experience.
2)
Examine the AdminExplorer layoutset to see how it works, and see if the coding can be transferred to your need. You will need a developer for this task.
Best regards,
Martin Søgaard

Invalid URL Link in Content Area

Hi,
When I create a URL item which display directly on the Content Area. If I
enter a invalid URL addres, the system will show an error when I view the
folder, which is fine. However, it will disable me to see other item on the
same folder and there is also no way to delete that invalid URL item at all.
The only way is to delete the folder which will in turn delete all the items
under that folder, which, is not acceptable. Is there some form of solution ?

Alvin,
Please see thread http://technet.oracle.com:89/ubb/Forum82/HTML/000067.html .
I encourage everyone to search the forum to see if your question has already been answered.
Thanks,

How to disable category link in content area

Hi,
I have a lots of categories in a content area. As u all know, a link appears for all categories in the category header.
Clicking that will take you to that particular category.
I do not want to have that link. I have tried what was mentioned in earlier question to disable portlet header link.
<a font color=white></font>
Bue that's not working for category links.
Please help.
Murthy

Hi,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/cc/f4e77ddef1244380b06fee5f8b892a/frameset.htm you find the relevant guidelines.
You can filter the PCD object setting the Search Layout Set of your Searc Iview.
In System Admin > System Configuration > Content Management > User Interface > Settings > Layout Set and duplicate the "SearchResultLayoutSet" layout set.
Then you have to duplicate its Collection Renderer "StandardSearchResultRenderer".
In its property "Resource Types to be Filtered" set as value "-http://sap.com/xmlns/pcd/app/iview".
Then assign the new Collection Renderer to the new Layout Set and that's it!
Now if yuor Search Iview uses this new Layout Set, when you search a PCD object the iviews will not be shown!
(or)
In the entry "Predefined Properties" of the search options set, you will need to enter "resourcetype(value=http://sap.com/xmlns/pcd/app/page/default)" if you want the search to be limited to resources defined as pages. Leave out /default if you dont want the end user to be able to change the filter.
If you want the parameter reflected in the URL, you can find information about how to do it here: /message/280371#280371 [original link is broken]
Check and try either ways.

Ponneswari A.

SAP Easy DMS - Link between Document Area and Document Types

Deat Friends,
Is there a transaction code or a customizing available to link the Document Area and Document Types??
For example: Document Area (DMS) is linked with Document Type (DRW)
Thank you,
Sri

Hello Chandu,
We are trying to create a documents via TCODE: CVO1N
One of the entry we need to populate is the "DOCUMENT TYPE" to create a document. If, we enter the Document Type = DRW, we are not able to see our custom Storage Category while attaching/Check-in a document.
Where as, If, we enter the Document Type = DMO, we are able to see our custom Storage Category while attaching/Check-in a document.
I see that the Document Type = DRW is linked to Document Area = DMS
Similarly, the Document Type = DMO is linked to Document Area = FILESYSTEM
My question is, Is there a transaction code or a customizing option available to link the Document Area and Document Type?
Thank you,
Sri
