Search only portal pages

I want to search on Pages, not iviews/worksets. Any ideas please?

Hi Ashish
In http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/cc/f4e77ddef1244380b06fee5f8b892a/frameset.htm you find the relevant guidelines.
If you dont want the parameter reflected in the URL, you will need to create a search options set and use it in the seach iview that should be used for portal page search.
So 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 information about how to do it here: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/thread?messageID=280371

HELP! Need help generating TEXT-ONLY portal page...

Text Only Portal Question:
PLATFORM:
=================================================================
Sun Solaris (5.2 if memory serves) for db and mid-tier, running
8.1.7 DB and 3.0.9 (1.0.2.2) portal.
THE NEED:
=================================================================
I need to display text only portal pages. Some of the more
detailed concerns at this point are below. Also, I've had an open
tar on Metalink for about two weeks, and after research from
their end has resulted in no help.
THE ISSUES (so far):
=================================================================
IMAGES:
If an anchor [A HREF=...] tag uses an image as it's "text", I
need to strip out the ALT= text to show inside the anchor. If no
ALT text is available, then I would like to show the image name
as a default.
For example:
<img src=home.gif
alt=Home>
should display as:
Home
FORMS:
How do I get the resulting page from a form (which include the
login inputs and submit button, search box, advanced search page,
etc.) to be displayed by the text only page?
For example:
When a form is called, the <FORM> elements are as follows:
METHOD=GET or POST
ACTION=url (relative or absolute) to the script.
In this case, the action value is:
ACTION=/servlet/page?
pageid=6&dad=portal30&_schema=PORTAL30.
This calls the advanced search API.
I would expect that to redirect the browser back to some
text-only version, the ACTION= element would have to be changed
to be something like:
ACTION=[pathscraper]?/servlet/page?
pageid=6&dad=portal30&_schema=PORTAL30
REDIRECTION:
What happens when portal pages redirect internally? How do you
get back to the text-only page?
For example:
The login link on the standard Oracle Portal home page flips
from url to url to get to the actual login page. Our
implementation of Oracle portal goes from
[DOMAIN]/pls/portal30_sso/portal30_sso.wwsso_app_admin.ls_login
to [domain]/pls/portal30_sso/portal30_sso.login_page.
Since this is standard Oracle redirection, how can it be
intercepted so the portal30_sso.login_page can be presented as
text only?
TRIED SO FAR:
=================================================================
I've written a socket/text scraper in Perl, running it from a web
server. The problems mentioned above are really causing problems,
plus the whole cookie thing. Since Oracle Portal tries to push a
cookie to the client, when the client is another UNIX server,
the cookie thing doesn't work.
POSSIBLE OTHER SOLUTIONS:
=================================================================
Something...anything. I've tried to think of some method to
create some sort of PL/SQL procedure to catch the content then
strip out the HTML calls.
An Applet to do the same thing, but on the client side, but
since time is an issue, coding a complete Java applet isn't
really an option.
THE CONCLUSION:
=================================================================
HELP! I need some help. This is for a client that is government
funded, and to meet Section 508 (part of the Americans with
Disabilities Act that states web sites and applications must be
made accessible. A text-only page is one of the requirements for
an accessible page.
Thanks,
Ryan Stefani

Use Find/Change and the GREP tab.
Search for .+ and set the Find formatting to find the charcteristics you want.
What will you do with this text once found? You'll need something to "change" to, either new text or Change Formatting options...

Searching only English Wiki Pages

Is it possible to search the wiki for only one language? (English in my case.) I mean, is it possible to exclude other languages from the results? I don't see the option in the "Advanced" search. I'm creating a shortcut, so maybe there's a way to specify in the url?

No, it's not possible to search only English pages at the moment.
By looking at the source of surfraw it doesn't seem to be able to help you.
If you want, it should be very easy to program a search tool that gets raw search results through API calls (see https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Search, https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Opensearch, https://wiki.archlinux.org/api.php), and then removes the entries with the language suffixes listed in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/He … #Languages.
Finally, also the implementation of https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/He … uffixes.3F would solve this problem.

Disable Navigation framework of BW iview in portal page of KM Search result

We have BW Bookmarks in KM as Portal pages and recently we implemented search_from_here option for searching bookmarks of the KM folders. Trex index has been created. Search results of Trex displays the links of the searched BW Bookmarks.
When clicking on these links BW iview is embedded in the Portal page and is displayed along with header framework.
Is there a way we can customize link in the search result to launch in headerless portal window.
Tried to maintain Content link parameters option '3' to display in new headerless window of the bookmark and also maintained NavMode=3 option in the content link of the Bookmark properties under access links but didnt work.
Thanks.

Resolved by appending NavMode=3 to Content link URL should launch in Headerless Portal window.

PLM search (wda_sea_qs) gives page not found when started from portal

In NWBC the PLM search works fine. For result it starts the result webdynpro.
We use PLM from the portal so I have created an iview for the webdynopro wda_sea_qs.
When I click on advanced search or search for something the navigation to the other webdynpro's is not working.
All we get is an new portal page with the message "page not found"
How can I configure the search to work correct from the portal?
Greetings
Rob

I found the answer via this link:
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/en/1c/ffdf5fd56444748bb6af29d796d75a/frameset.htm
The iView should contain the following Application Parameter:
FRW_SYSAlias=<System>
This solved the problem.

Portal Page Dynamic URLS & Search Engines

Hi,
I have created a portal site. These portal pages urls are created dynamically.
How can I optimize this dynamic (and long) URL for a search engine?
I am having trouble getting them spidered and ranked in major search engines.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Despite many posts on this issue, I am skeptical that there
is a problem
with search engines indexing pages with query strings. I have
a number
of pages with URLs like showdetail.cfm?articleID=25 and they
are always
indexed by Google and other search engines.
It is my understanding it largely depends on how you link to
the detail
pages. If you have direct anchors to the detail pages Google
will index
them. If you use a form or something else, Google is much
less likely
to follow.
For example:
<a href="showdetail.cfm?articleID=25">The best red ball
ever</a>

<form action="showdetail.cfm" method="get">
<select name="articleID">
<option value="25">The best red ball
ever<option>
<option value="26">The best green ball
ever<option>
<option value="27">The best blue ball
ever<option>
</select>
<input type="submit"/>
</form>

This makes some sense, because how can a robot complete a
form even if
it could determine it is for navigation.

Refreshing a single portlet rather than the whole portal page

Ok, here's my situation.
I have two pdk portlets on my portal that communicate through page parameters. Portlet A has a bunch of search fields, a customer drop-down list, parts drop-down list, division, etc. Portlet B takes those parameters, queries the database, and displays the results. I would like to be able to refresh portlet B without reloading the whole portal page.
I have onchange events on all of my drop-downs that will do a javascript post back to portal, which will in turn set my page parameters, and I see there is a 'refreshPortlet' function in a javascript file that portal provides that will refresh a single portlet based on a portletReferenceId. It is normally called when a refresh button is clicked in the portlet header, but I don't see any reason I can't call it after my javascript post, that is, if I had the portletReferenceId for the other portlet. I thought about making a hidden html table on the page that, I could fill with the portlet names and ids for each portlet as they load, that way I could reference that list from any portlet. The problem is I can't figure out where the ids are coming from. Based on the code behind the button, the function is looking for something like this 646_701285_646_1_701271, but the closest thing I can come up with is this 676114_POSTCONTENTPORTLET_467414915 which I got from PortletRenderRequest.getPortletInstance().getInstanceName(). As you can see, it's not even close. Does anyone know where the correct id could be coming from? It's got to be available to me somewhere, doesn't it?
The only other option I can think of to accomplish my goal is to use straight up ajax to display portlet B, but that kind of defeats the purpose of portal doesn't it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Doug

You can use Ctrl+F4 to close the current tab. I don't think that you can change the Alt+F4 action with Keyconfig.

Restrict permissions to a user to search only few users who is part of a group.

Hi,
In FIM Portal, I have a security group "Group1". The group contains 5 user accounts(User1,2,..User5). The user account "User6" is the owner of that group "Group1". Whenever the owner of group i.e.
"User6" logs into FIM Portal, on "users" page he/she should be able to search only the memebers of that group "Group". When the user "User6" clicks on Users link in FIM portal, and searches for the users, then he should
be able to view only the users "User1,2...User5" but not all the users.
How can i achieve this scenario. Please suggest.
Thanks,
Prasanthi

Hi Prasanthi,
I have never tried but just a thought.
Generally access can be controlled via sets and MPRs.
1. Create a set that contains your group say 'setGroup1' as criteria.
2. So you create an MPR say 'allow group admin to access group member only' in that mention set created in step1.
Thanks,
Mann

Set Portal Page URL in Web Dynpro IFrame

Hi All,
I've a Web Dynpro application that runs in the portal.
The application creates iframes dynamically.
I want to set in the iframes portal pages.
In order to get the page's url, I go to content admin, navigate to the page and then press the 'preview' button then I copy the url from the browser's address bar.
I copy the url from the '/irj....' to the src property of the IFrame UI element.
So the source property looks something like this:
/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcom.mycomp.Omri!2fcom.mycomp.TestPage
When I run the project I get:
<i>Portal Runtime Error
An exception occurred while processing a request for :
iView : N/A
Component Name : N/A
Access denied (Object: portal_content/.../...).
Exception id: 06:01_17/10/06_0015_4401150
See the details for the exception ID in the log file</i>
The page's permissions are set to everyone so I don't know why do I get this error.
So, how do I set portal page url in Web Dynpro IFrame?
p.s
I tried to use NavigatinTarget in the URL and it works. The problem is that the TLN is included. I want to display only the page.
Thanks,
Omri

Hi Valery,
I have only one domain...
I searched SDN and I found this post:
/message/1259616#1259616 [original link is broken]
Daniel Wroblewski from SAP says:
<i>This, naturally, sounds like a permission issue. Two steps:
You must give the Everyone group end-user permission to the iView. This will eliminate the error and cause a login screen to display.
If you want to eliminate the login screen, you must set the iView property Authentication Scheme to anonymous.</i>
I will try it tomorrow in the Office.

Public content on secure portal page?

We have placed public PDF files (read only for public) into a common "documents" portal page, ie. portal/mul/documents. Links on various portal pages reference the docs in this documents page, ie portal/mul/documents/my_august_05.pdf
A user can modify the URL down to where they can display the "documents" page itself, and a listing of all files on that "documents" page.
How can we let public view the content of files stored in the "documents" page, but prohibit the public from viewing the listing of the contents of "documents" page itself?
Thx.

I don't know if this is exactly the solution you are looking for but I've done something similar in the past where the page and tabbed region where items were published were granted access to group A but some of the items on that page were granted item-level access to both group A and group B. On a totally separate page, a custom search portlet was published that searched the entire page group. Group B could then see the links to the items that they had access to eventhough they could not actually go to the page and tab those items were published on. Does that make sense?

Calling portal page

Is there an API call to call a certain portal page?
The only way i've found a way of doing this is using the following URL:
click here
Where _pageid is different for all pages. This is not very clever in case i decide to change the form at a later stage, or even when i implement the application to a different server the pages might be given different IDs.. So, how can i do this? I'd like to call the different pages (portal pages) using name instead of ID..

Check out the answer to "How can I define a bookmarkable URL for a Portal Page?" from the FAQ, or search for "direct access url" in the online help. It shows you how to call a page by its name.

OCS Portal Page not there

I finally completed the install of Collaboration Suite today, and followed along with the post-install instructions to set up the Oracle Collaboration Suite User Group, User Home page, and Administration page in Portal. I see the OCS_Page_Group listed, and I see the OCS_Main_Page page, but when I view it, there is nothing there. I see a reference in the documentation that talks about the Search, Calendar, and My Favorites portlets that were supposed to be created during installation. I don't see anything close to that.
Anybody know what to do? I want to have a portal page that contains the user's email, calendar, favorites, news, stocks, etc. I don't know what to do about creating the calendar and email portlets. I also don't see anything about creating Files Online portlet.
Thanks,
Michael

My install was on Redhat 7.3 from the iso disk images available on redhat.com. I considered downgrading my kernel, but I'm not that strong with Linux so worked with what I had. The only linux change I made was to install a ksh rpm which is mandatory. I had changed kernel parameters but don't think that it really matters for installation purposes.
The install that I have running at the moment was the simplest I could think of and only has an infrastructure tier and a middle tier, and I installed in the midtier install, portal, wireless and calendar. For both installs I change genclntsh as has been referenced in other notes in this forum. After my infrastructure install I made modifications to the listener, http, https and ldap components of the install. I also rebooted between midtier and infrastructure installs, and then started infrastructure components manually. I also deleted /etc/emtab file so that Enterprise Manager will be installed for the midtier. None of this seems to be documented very well in any of the Install guides/release notes etc, and I only got there with some help from other people who have access to MetaLink. Further there is nothing documented about how to stop/start/verify an OCS installation. Anyway, once the required infrastructure components are started, the midtier install seems to run fine, although for some reason I sometimes have to copy extproc from the infrastructure bin directory to the midtier bin directory.
Anyway, I got it running eventually and the calendar server seems to be doing what I want but it was a lot of effort for not much value above the plain infrastructure if you ask me. I'm confused why there needs to be three tiers anyway, as the infra and midtiers especially seem to install the same things. Couldn't they two tiers have been consolidated in some way?
I would be interested in what other people percieve as the value of collaboration suite and how they are planning on using it.
regards,
Anthony.

Publishing content from reports server to a portal page

I have a system with Forms/Reports 6i in a client/server implementation. I have 6i reports server from this on the server tier. I have added 9iAS (minimal install) to get Portal and HTTP server. I have completed the configuration and I can have the portal page submit jobs to the reports server and they are displayed properly.
But I also wish to run reports from the application. This app submits jobs to the reports server via RWCLI60. I was hoping I could use 'File' as the destype and drop off content into a directory the web server knows about and then have a portal page that will generate links to the files. These could be pdf or html output.
Can anyone tell me if this is possible and provide a short list of steps to configure it? Thanks.

How to change one iView to another in portal page by clicking the third one

Hi all!
I have created four iViews: two speedometers with web application designer and two iViews with visual composer. I added the speedometers and a visual composer iView #1 to a portal page (default view). The requirement is that by clicking the speedometer #2, the visual composer iView #2 would replace visual composer iView #1 on the portal page. If the user then would select the speedometer #1 again by clicking it, visual composer iView #2 would replace #1 again and so on.
I have read article http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50b65a5d-f397-2910-a78a-f5544f21c33b?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true, but it is more about filtering VC iView values with BI web items. I don't need to filter anything, just to change one iView to another in a portal view by clicking a third one.
I have thought of placing two VC iView to a same portal page area and defining one of the to be visible and another hidden (by clicking speedometers these properties would change), but I haven't found the way how that could be done in portal. Is there a way to define some OnClick-method to change visibility parameters or url-address of another iView?
One solution might be¨on the other hand to transfer any value to VC by clicking a speedometer and to change the visibility of the VC iViews according to that value (the speedometer #1 should in that case transfer other value to VC than speedometer #2). I don't know if that is possible with speedometers - you can't reference any characteristics or variables with it.
If you have an idea, what would be the best way to accomplish this requirement, I would be very glad to hear about it! We are in VC 7.0.
Points garanteed!
Regards
Sari

Hi,
In the portal, create a page and place the iView having the three input fields on top. Place the second iView below. Keep differing the second iView for every page. In this way you can make the iView with 3 input fields only in the desired pages. You can use EPCF to invoke / navigate to another iView.

Is it possible to select multiple files on the W8.1U1's SEARCH RESULTS window page? For instance, if 10 CPP files are found by the seraching mechanism, can I select all 10 files and have them open in Visual Studio at once?

TIA.

Brandon, this forum member is known since a long time ago an arrogant (he thinks he knows more than every other) and stupid(*) (full of misconceptions). His first post is a very good example of what I just wrote. How does he dare to suggest to use File
Explorer, if W8.1 already has a system built for doing just this search? Do I have to open File Explorer in the folder (or somewhere near) the item I'm looking for? What about the other items in folders above it? This suggestion is stupid(*). He even
asserts that I'm using Modern UI! I'm not! I'm using the desktop, but his misconceptions make him write such idiocies(*) with such arrogance: asserting what he doesn't know (arrogancy and stupidity). And more, this guy is no one to say he/he/he to me, because
I know he is what you deleted from my posts, and more, he is often crying, moaning and snivelling like a spoiled child in this forum and messing up any thread posting stupid(*) images of programs imagined/designed/developed by others. All posts from him in
this thread must be trashed (you should do it). He has nothing to contribute POSITIVELY in this thread, but just to MESS IT UP.
(*) stupid, I can write, after all, you didn't delete this word from this ... poster.
Now, look at the first reply: this forum member has no idea how much stupid is his 'work around'. And this 'work around' does not answer my question and even does address the environment I mentioned: W8.1 U1 search results window page, and not File Explorer!
His second post just reassures me he has no idea what is the searching mechanism I'm talking about. He even mentions Win-w(!) which proves he totally ignore what is the searching mechanism I'm talking about. A user like this one, must have many monitors to
keep him busy looking at them, and having excuses for not read and learn technical documentation. It's ignorance about technical aspects of computer issues that makes him post bad bug report and a bad idea in Connect site:
Using Get-Date -Format "CyM" to work around some bugs
https://connect.microsoft.com/PowerShell/feedback/details/884502/using-get-date-format-cym-to-work-around-some-bugs
Only total ignorance about PowerShell makes someone post such bad 'bug' report. He got critics about his bad post, but I'm sure he doesn't understand.
Column headers for alias should include DisplayName instead of just Name

In fact, the information displayed is already DisplayName, but this guy has no technical knowledge to understand what is happening.
These 2 forum members just messed up a thread that should be free of negative contributions, besides off topic.
