URGENT: Favorites Portlet Problem

Hi
I have edited the links on the Favorites Portlets and deleted the one that were the default ones like Oracle, Oracle Help or Oracle Technology Network but when I load my page they are there, I don't understand why.
Please help me I need to show my links instead of the default ones.
Thanks in advance
Ana

My version is:
Oracle Portal Version: 3.0.9.8.2
The problem is that I have customized the portlet, I removed the default links, but they don't disappear, they still there when I load my page but when I login then my links appear, so I really don't understand the customize of this portlet.
Thanks
Ana Maria

"Favorites" Portlet customization

Is it possible to modify the links in the Favorites (My Links) portlet to open in a new window? I don't want the user to leave the current portal session every time a favorites link is activated. I see that this functionality is available when adding a new link to a content area. This is something that should also be possible with the Favorites portlet.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
The problem is somehow there is no default DAD entry in your DAD config files. Please do the following -
1. Open the $IAS_HOME/Apache/modplsql/cfg/wdbsvr.app file. ($IAS_HOME would be where you have installed iAS).
2. Verify whether you have any dad in your file. If not , add manually a dad named "sample".
3. In the top section in this file, there would be a field called "default DAD". you need to provide some existing dad in that file.
4. You need to restart your iAS server.
Now, you can access this URL.
Thanks,
Ved

How can I put "Favorites"portlets for various users in a page?

How can i put in a page two "Favorites" portlets (one for each user that log on into the page and one for each group of users that logon into the page),so each
user can customize (add favorites,delete favorites,..) it's own "Favorites" portlet and the other "Favorites" portlet is only customizable by a
group of user,so if the user log on is not in that group can't customize the portlet.

The favorites portlet is set up to work this way automatically. You put one version on a page, and the customizations are stored for each individual user. So the same portlet displays different favorites based on the logged in user. At this point, there is no way to define favorites for a group.

Single click to add "current page" to favorites portlet

Hello all,
Ok, I'd like to construct a hyperlink and have it on every page in our Portal. Clicking on it automatically adds the "current page" to the Favorites portlet.
Anyone have any ideas? Does the Favorites portlet expose any interesting api solutions?
Thanks

Hi,
A bit late for a response to the original posters though others may benefit.
The Portal Smart Link "Favorites" performs this function. Add it to your template and you are done. Note, it is not Tab aware if your page has them.

Default favorites portlet for different groups in oid

Hi,
We are using Portal 10.1.4.
I want to use the favorites portlet to have default favorites for different user groups (So different set of default favourites for diffrent portal group)
Is this possible? Is the portlet cached at the system level? can this be changed?
Also, How do I hide the help link and image from the 'personalize' wizard?
Can the display in the wizards be modified in other ways?
cheers
Kev

Vijay, that doesn't seem to work. What I need (and I think it is the same as the original poster ) is to have several different instances of the favorites portlet or one instance that can have its links access controlled. e.g. A favorites portlet for the students group with links that only that OID group can see, a favorites portlet for staff with links that only the staff OID group can see. I am using portal 10.1.4 and cannot see any way to access control the default favourites.
Thanks,
Steven.

Oracle portal Favorites portlet

Has anyone found a way to default for other users the links in the favorites portlet? Or get rid of the oracle links? We would like to roll this out, but we will not if we cannot even put our default links in there. There are no edit_defaults links available.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

We've cheated and actually changed the data in the table WWPTL_FAVORITE$ ( schema PORTAL30) where the USER_ID = 'PUBLIC'. Just log on as the schema portal30 and you can then directly change the default values.

Changing the favorites portlet title according to selected language

we have bilingual portal. i need the title of the favorites portlet to be changed according to selected language. for example when the user click english the title will be favorites and when he click spanish the title will be favoritos.

You can use the FM GET_GLOBALS_FROM_SLVC_FULLSCR to get the ALV Grid object behind the FullScreen ALV. Then use the method GET_VARIANT to get the Selected Layout name.
Something like this:
FORM F_TOP_OF_PAGE.
DATA: LO_GRID TYPE REF TO CL_GUI_ALV_GRID.
* Get the ALV Object reference
CALL FUNCTION 'GET_GLOBALS_FROM_SLVC_FULLSCR'
    IMPORTING
      E_GRID = LO_GRID.
if lo_grid is bound.
     lo_grid->get_variant( importing es_variant = lv_layout ).
endif.
ENDFORM.
Some examples on where FM GET_GLOBALS_FROM_SLVC_FULLSCR can be used:
[Moving Cursor to Next row by pressing Enter in Classical ALV|http://help-abap.zevolving.com/2008/09/moving-cursor-to-next-row-by-pressing-enter-in-classical-alv/]
[Classical ALV: Disable DELETE key on Keyboard in Grid|http://help-abap.zevolving.com/2008/10/alv-disable-delete-key-on-keyboard-in-classical-alv-grid/]

Changing look of Favorites portlet

Is there a way to adjust the space between and space around the items in the Favorites portlet? I want the spacing to match the spacing in rest of the portlets on the page.

An improved version of my previous example to list the properties. This one shows the keys in alphabetic sequence and the value types.
UIDefaults def = UIManager.getLookAndFeelDefaults();
TreeSet ts = new TreeSet(def.keySet());
Iterator iter = ts.iterator();
while (iter.hasNext()) {
    Object key = iter.next();
    System.out.print(key);
    try {
        System.out.println(" : " + def.get(key).getClass().getName());
    } catch (NullPointerException e) {
        System.out.println(" : null");
}Then you can can change the fonts (for example) for certain components like this
JPanel p = new JPanel();
Font font = new Font(getFont().getName(), Font.BOLD, 24);
UIManager.put("Button.font", font);
UIManager.put("TextField.font", font);
UIManager.put("Label.font", font);

Customizing Favorites portlet **PAGE**

I would like to change the page style of the Favorites portlet but I don't see the needed pages in the Portlet Repository.
Are they in a JSP or servlet somewhere?

Doug,
Styles will most likely meet your needs. You can apply them to an entire page group, page or page region. Templates are more useful when you are certain of your site's layout and want to enforce design standards for a large enterprise effort. Even then, since templates use styles, you'll want to define your styles first.
You may want to check out Report #40050 at portalcenter.oracle.com, Design an Attractive and Compelling Portal Interface for a good overview of the various design features of Oracle Portal.

My favorites portlet customization

How can I customize the "my favorites" portlet to
a.) remove the "my favorites" logo from the portlet banner
b.) add a scrolling bar to the portlet window
Currently using: 9iAS v.1.0.2.2 (PDK v1)
If I need to build this on my own, what's the best way to do this (Dynamic HTML portlet?)
Thanks.

If I need to build this on my own, what's the best way to do this (Dynamic HTML portlet?)If you just want to remove the logo, you could try to rename "ml_us.gif" to something else and then copy "pobtrans.gif" to "ml_us.gif". Both can be found in the portal images directory (\oracle\ora9ias\portal30\images). But of course, it now won't show anywhere.
Your best bet is to make a custom portlet and then let it show an IFRAME. That way, users can scroll. You can't customize the stock "my favirites" portlet, since the code in the database is wrapped :-/

Urgent!! Problems muxing .m2v files and audio!! MPEG Streamclip/Compressor

Hello!
I am under an urgent deadline to upload a short 6 min documentary clip for a client to review for screening this week. The footage was shot in 1080/60i HDV.
Usually, I find the best quality and fastest way to do this is to export directly from my FCP sequence using the '150 min Best Quality' DVD settings in compressor to get an .m2v video file and .ac3 audio file. Then I open the .m2v files in MPEG Streamclip which links it with my .ac3 file, then do 'Export MPEG with MP-2 audio". This gives me a single, muxed file that I can then upload to YouTube or Vimeo.
However, with this project, when I open up my .m2v file in MPEG Streamclip, it's recognizing the .ac3 file and I can see the info for it in the MPEG Streamclip window, but when I play the file in MPEG Streamclip or mux it, I don't hear any audio. Furthermore, after about 5 seconds into the clip, the playhead will continue moving, but the video will freeze, then maybe pick up again later. The .m2v video will play back smoothly in VLC player or Quicktime player, but not in MPEG Streamclip.
I've tried exporting different little sections of the timeline to see if maybe I had some corrupted footage or whatnot. I even exported a small clip from an older HDV project to test. But no matter where I export from, I am running into the same problem. I can bring the .m2v file and .ac3 file into DVD Studio Pro and burn a DVD with no problem, but I can't mux them. If I build the DVD file in DVD SP and try to open the .VOB file with MPEG Streamclip, I get the same problem. I even tried using a different software to mux (ffmpegX) but to no avail. When I try with ffmpegX, it either tells me I'm dropping frames, or if it works and it muxes it, when I open the MPEG file, it'll stutter at about 5 seconds in as well and I can't hear any audio, even though there is supposed to be audio in the muxed file.
I think I might have updated my Quicktime a few days ago with the system update, and maybe updated a few other things, so I don't know if this has any bearing on the problems I'm running into. But I was able just a few days ago to export HDV 1080/60i using this workflow without any problems.
I realize I have other export options, but this always seems to me to be the best quality and fastest way of doing it vs. encoding an H.264 which, on my machine is RIDICULOUSLY slow...I need to be uploading multiple versions of the cut to the client, and really need help! Thanks so much in advance!
J

what you want is an m2v program file. Export a reference copy from FCP (uncheck Make Movie Self Contained") That's very fast. Bring it into Compressor. In the settings panel find the MPEG-2 settings folder. Select Program Stream. Adjust to your liking and run. The audio and video will already be "muxed" when it's done and using compressor 3 you can set it to upload to YouTube, Mobile or similar sites.

Urgent Sql Query Problem - -Very Urgent

Hi Guys,
I need a urgent solution for a problem.I am
using the following query
select ename from emp where deptno =10
Now I will declare a bind variable and if user passes 'A'
then the query will run as it is and if he passes B
then it should run the above query with this additional clause -> birthdate - hiredate >15.
Please can any one help its very urgent

Assuming that you have a birthdate column in your emp table, the following will do what you are asking for:
VARIABLE bind_var VARCHAR2(1)
EXECUTE :bind_var := '&bind_variable'
SELECT ename FROM
(SELECT 'A' AS selection, ename FROM emp WHERE deptno = 10
UNION ALL
SELECT 'B' AS selection, ename FROM emp WHERE deptno = 10 AND birthdate - hiredate > 15)
WHERE selection = :bind_var
However, the clause "birthdate - hiredate > 15" will only retrieve rows for employees who were born more than 15 days after they were hired. I doubt that this is what you really want, since this is impossible.
