Portlet Edit Defaults

Hi
Pre Oracle Portal 9.0.4 you could add a portlet to a template, create a number of pages based on the template and then edit the defaults for each instance of the portlet on each page.
In 9.0.4 and above you can no longer do this. Is there any documentation to explain how to do this in the later versions of Portal other than using the customisation link in a header for a portlet
Many Thanks
Belinda

My experience in 9.0.3.X or 9.0.2.X or even WebDB is almost null. so I cannot compare and come up with a solution...
What I can suggest is to open a SR via metalink to ask this..

  • Error editing Discoverer Portlet 'Edit Defaults'

    Hello,
    I am trying to edit my discoverer portlet to change the refresh options. However, whenever I click the edit default link, the following error message shows up on the page:
    The current user does not own this instance. Only the owner can Edit Defaults for this portlet. Please contact the portlet owner
    This happens even though I log in as the portal admin user.
    Any ideas?

    Did you find a solution to the problem? I am encountering the same problem. If the discoverer portlet is created by somebody else then I am unable to edit the defaults.

  • URGENT! Where is IMAP portlet "Edit Defaults" link????

    Hi all,
    I've deployed PDK(January). Registered the imap portlet to portal and add a portlet to a newly created page.
    It iis written in documentation that there is a "Edit Defaults" page to enter server information (other than customization link to enter username/password info). But I could not find how to navigate to tha "Edit Default Page".
    Any comments,
    Thanks in advance,
    Yeliz

    Hi.
    To get to the Edit Defaults page, click on the "Edit" link on your page. This will open a new page. On this page, just above your portlet there will be a button called "Actions". This will show you a page with the heading "Select Action". On this page, select the "Edit Defaults" radio button and click on OK. The page which opens is the Edit Defaults page.
    Please note, the method I have described above holds true for most portal 9.0.2 versions. It might vary for certain portal 9.0.2 versions.
    Thanks,
    Ashish.

  • Portlets: Edit Defaults

    Hi!
    I imported my portlets from 3.0.9 into the new one and all went fine, but the Edit Defaults Option does not work anymore :(
    I tried to find new Guidelines to handle "Edit Defaults" but I failed ...
    So does anyone share this problem with me ??

    Hi,
    Is the portal version you imported the same to is also 309 ??
    By any chance have you applied any patches on the 309 Build you have ??

  • PL/SQL Portlet with edit defaults. HOW ???

    Hi !
    I created a pl/sql portlet that renders html. Now I want a customization option on the "Edit Defaults" page of the portlet. How do I do this ??
    In the code of the portlet I set "l_portlet.has_show_edit_defaults" to true. So the Edit Defaults page is show, but it's empty.
    On that page I want a variable where you can choose between 3 options. In the procedure where I render the html, I want to read this variable so I can render 3 different things.
    Can someone please help me ?

    I suggest you look at the database services provider in the PDK which is an example provider showing how to do the basic things within a provider/portlet - like customise and edit defaults.
    You could also generate a provider using the pl/sql generator - that will produce code that you can use as a starting point for your development.
    Basically you have to add code to the show procedure of the portlet to render a different page if the mode is 'MODE_SHOW_EDIT_DEFAULTS'. Look in the samples - it should be clear.
    Hope this helps.

  • PDK Java Portlet looses edit default values everytime I redeploy EAR

    Hello All,
    I have a PDK Java portlet (Portal - Oracle 10g). It works as expected perfectly till I redeploy my EAR. As soon as I redeploy EAR, it looses the settings that user had set using edit defaults link. Is there anyway to prevent this? Application runs on OC4J server.
    I urgently need solution to this problem and any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Kinnaree

    Just to be sure, you are registering the PDK producer with a WebCenter portal?
    Or are you just using the PDK provider in an oracle portal environment and you don't use webcenter?
    If you are using webcenter, can you also test this behavior in Oracle portal? Do you also loose the values in oracle portal or is it just in webcenter? This way we can see if it's a webcenter or portlet issue.
    If you loose the values on both the oracle portal and webcenter side, than it has something to do with the portlet. If they are working correctly in oracle portal, than it might be a bug in the PDK bridge in Webcenter.

  • Edit defaults page in portlet

    I have implemented an edit defaults page for a portlet and use the personalization data class and the FilePreferenceStore to save the system level default settings for the portlet. All works well except that when I refresh the portlet's provider, I lose the system level default settings. Does anyone know if it is possible for the default settings to be retained even after the provider is refreshed?

    Scott,
    it's a common pb.
    you must create, at least, one default public connection by using oem (port 1810). (click discoverer, then discoverer services configuration etc.)

  • Edit defaults mode , Preferences for all users.

    Hi,
    Iam working on an portlet app as part of it am planning to make the portlet application as jsr 168 compliant.
    I have few questions regarding the jsr 168 stuff.
    a) what versions of Bea portal do support the jsr 168 portlets it is it available for download todo some investigation.
    b) This is an question related to preferences - For example Suppose user "A" publshes the portlet and another logged in user views the portlet he should see the same set of preferences or the defaults set by the user "A" . Some portals like Oracle portal achieve this by supporting a mode called Edit Defaults mode. How do i achieve this in a Portal which doesn't support edit defaults but it is JSR compliant. In other words the prefences set by the user "A" should be available to user "B" , how does i achieve this functionality in other portals. Note Edit defaults mode is an custom mode supported by the JSR 168 API it is not a mandatory mode like the Edit, View or Help .
    Thanks in Advance.

  • How can I make Edit/Default Customization form with Java ?

    In previous portal relise developers have simple way to rendering Edit/Default Customization form:
    <% PortletRendererUtil.renderCustomizeFormHeader(portletRequest, out, null, "services_action", null, null); %>
    <TABLE BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="2">
    <TR>
    <TD>Days</TD>
    <TD><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="services_days" VALUE="<%= days %>" SIZE="10"/></TD>
    </TR>
    <TR>
    <TD>Rows</TD>
    <TD><INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="services_rows" VALUE="<%= rows %>" SIZE="10"/></TD>
    </TR>
    </TABLE>
    <% PortletRendererUtil.renderCustomizeFormFooter(portletRequest, out); %>
    In current portal version I can not find these methods, these methods not exists in JavaDoc and in jar's. And all old code do not works!!! Why?
    I must hide portlet borders and use <renderContainer>false</renderContainer> in provider.xml. Then portal do not render Edit/Default Customization form in Edit/Default mode. In previous relise I can make this form with Java code.
    My question: how I can get Edit/Default Customization form in Edit/Default mode with Java code?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi George, the trick is to figure out which browser is your default now, and remove that designation using the Android settings for Apps. It might be Chrome or it might be something Samsung provides.
    This article has more information: [[Make Firefox the default browser on Android]].
    Does it work?

  • How to make a redirect without auto-redirect from the portlet "edit" mode?

    How to make a redirect without auto-redirect from the portlet "edit" mode?
    I use some sofisticated customizing with server-side validation of the form data. I want to redirect to the page of the portlet "show" mode and to the "edit" mode depending on the validation results. How can I do it?

    Heay.....this worked for me.
    I am able to change the mode programatically from edit to show.
    HttpPortletRendererUtil.handleEditAction(portletRenderRequest,"OK");
    I removed Apply , OK and Cancel buttons and applied my own Submit and Back button in Personalize mode and then change the mode to show on click of Back button using the above mentioned statement.

    Greetings, welcome to the Forums.
    There's lots of detail you left out...
    There is no OS 4.3 for the 8800 model. So, what model BlackBerry do you have, found at Options > About?
    What is your Operating System loaded to your device? Look at Options > About, third line down beginning with a "v.5.0.x.xxx", What is yours?
    What screencapture application are you using?

  • How to remove default Apply, OK and Cancel buttons in portlet edit mode.

    Hi,
    Iam facing problem in customizing default edit mode of portlet, my question is how to remove those default buttons and how to implement our own links for SAVE and CANCEL functionality. Because if we implement our own <form> in edit JSP page then default form will override our own <form> and default buttons works rather then our own forms.
    Please someone help me on this.
    Thanks
    Abhishek

    Ah, this one is easy, if im not mistaken, set this tag in your provider.xml
    <renderCustomize>false</renderCustomize>
    Defines whether RenderManager should automatically render the portlet's container (border and title) in "Edit" and "EditDefaults" modes before and after processing/invoking the page.
    This however means you have to write your own renderer for the customize page. Then you can add your own code for the buttons and the events behind them.
    I created my own derived container and added this line to my provider.xml
    <containerRenderer class="nl.rsm.eventCalendar.myContainerRenderer"/>
    This is however for rendering the showmode of the servlet, dont know if this is the same
    render class for the editmode.
    Do you realy need custom save functionality, Oracle also has something called DBPreferenceStore, you can store self defined attributes into the database. Perhaps this is sufficiant enough.
    anyway good luck, if you find out all the correct steps to take, please share, im also interested

  • Text Edit Default Size

  • Can't edit default domain controllers policy on windows 8 or server 2012

    I have found that I can't edit the "Default Domain Controllers Policy" from a Windows 8 or Server 2012 machine.  I can edit and save changes fine from a Windows 7 machine.  The domain controllers are running Windows 2012 Standard upgraded
    from Windows 2008 R2.  Is there a security setting I am missing?

    Posting the resolution from the other thread.  Hope it helps!
    I just accidentally resolved this issue today.  I added the GPMC to a 2008 R2 server so I could make a needed firewall
    change within the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security section of the Default Domain Controllers GPO (I enabled the Remote Event Log management rule for the Domain profile).  About an hour later, I forgot I was using my Windows 8 machine and I went
    to edit the Default Domain Controllers GPO and opened for edit without a problem.  I can now edit it from Windows 8 and from Windows Server 2012.  Until now, I was using a Windows 7 VM to make the edits, so in my case the problem was resolved by
    editing the GPO once from a 2008 R2 machine.
