Web Page Composer Dynamic Navigation

I want to add Dynamic Navigation iviews under the "Detailed Navigation" panel on a WPC Page Layout.
How can this be done?

Is there any solution or workaround for this?

  • SAP Web Page Composer: Detailed Navigation is not getting built

    Hello!
    I am new at this forum. At first I´d like to say hello to everybody! :]
    Our issue concerns the following:
    We started to work mit the Web Page Composer to build websites für our workers. Everything worked fine until the detailed WPC-navigation is not getting built anymore. We have this issue after a portal restart. Every steps to build and publish a website were done the right way.
    1. Publish navigation und paste it to the external connector of the role in the form "wpcnavigation:///wpcontent..."
    2. Permissions and security zones were set. Even the super admin is not able to see the detaild navigation anymore.
    It is still possible to put single webpages to iViews and then to display them in the portal. And every function of the Web Page Composer works fine. The caches are deactivated. I tried to build a new site with new pages and a new navigation but there is the same problem, no detailed navigation is shown in the portal navigation. The role is assigned to a user and he can see the role at the top navigation but when clicking on it no detailed navigation appears, just a blank page.
    As I mentioned this iusse appears after a portal restart. What could be the problem?
    Thank you in advance!
    Best regards

    Hello Sandeep!
    I created a new role and also did the Initial Configurations but it still does not work. May be there is a problem with the external connector where I connect the WPC navigation with the portal navigation? I know it sounds confusing but is there may be a way I could "reset" the WPC configuration? Because at the moment I tried to merge roles the system saved "some configuration" and started to avoid displaying the detailed navigation. So if could delete/reset/change this configuration, it could be that the navigation will be displayed again? I do not unterstand, if I just use one role and so avoid merging roles it just should work again? Or I am on the wrong way? Hopefully I am not telling bull**** right now! :]
    At this moment our system running SAP NetWeaver 7.00 SP18. The patch is only available at least SAP NetWeaver 7.00 SP20. We are probably going to upgrade in october to SAP NetWeaver 7.00 SP23 and then we can update the WPC, too. Our Basis said, I have to wait till october. Before this upgrade no updates will be done.
    Thanks for your help so far!
    Kind regards!

  • Nested site navigation using Web Page Composer (WPC)

    Is it possible to nest navigation nodes using Web Page Composer?
    I have created a WPC site and added pages, but I am required to create a node with sub-pages (similar to adding a folder to a workset) for a site.
    Has anyone done this or know how to easily do this?  I do not want to maintain a separate WPC site (and corresponding workset folder) for each navigation node/group in the structure hierarchy.
    This is an example of what we are trying to accomplish in our navigation structure using a single WPC site:
    * Page 1
    * Page 2
    + Group 1
        * Page 3
        * Page 4
    + Group 2
        * Page 5
        * Page 6
    * Page 7
    Thanks in advance...
    Points will be awarded for helpful answers.

    Hi Angie,
    Could you please guide how to make the RSS link lists work in WPC, we do not receive any updates from external websites.
    Thanks,

  • Web Page Composer Page impact portal navigation

    Dear All,
    we are using a web page composer page within the portal navigation by
    using a portal role with a folder with an external connector.
    We are facing the problem that after clicking on the WPC page in the
    second level navigation, the active first level navigation node is
    moved to the next node.
    How can we solve the problem?
    Kind regards,
    TC.

    Hi All,
    Can anyone help me out pls!!!

  • Top Level Navigation and Web Page Composer

    Dear all,
    I've a Site on Web Page Composer, and on this I've many Web Pages, so I've generated a Site Navigation. The Site Navigation generate a Top Level Navigation entry (Portal Role with External Connector), in this case all pages are displayed on a single menu entry. I would like to separate the pages on some Top Level Navigation Entries, what is the recommended way to do it? Create the pages on separated Sites and generate Site Navigation for each on?
    To clarify I would like a menu structure like this:
    Info  (Top Level)
    Page1                        
    Page2                        
    Page5
    Customers (Top Level)
    Page 3
    Page 4
    Page 6
    Employees (Top Level)
    Page 7
    Page 8
    And just an one site with all pages on Web Page Composer.
    Best regards

    Hi,
    every Site Navigation creates only 1 navigation file that you can integrate into the users navigation.
    In your case:
    Role (PCD)
    Folder -> Info
    Folder -> Customers
    Folder -> Employees
    Create for every folder (that are entry points) in the role a web site in WPC.
    Ex:
    Web Site: Info
    Web Pages:
    Page1
    Page2
    Page5
    Create a site navigation and add the site navigation to your folder Info.

  • Links Web Page Composer

    Hi!
    How can i get the link of a page in web page composer.
    I´m going to details of page and Settings - Properties - Access Links - Content Link. But when i use this link in "href" it show the page in full browser and i lost my area of masthead (that is in framework)..
    Thanks

    Hi Leo,
    The direct access link for each WPC web page is dynamically constructed after you publish your site and assign the value of the site navigation path to your role folder property External Connector.
    So to answer your question, you can not take the portion of the URL I indicated and derive the complete WPC page path as it depends partially on your role PCD path, and also the web page path in the KM WPC repository (i.e. <PCD_PATH_TO_PAGE_OBJECT> does contains a PCD path and a KM path to web page in the WPC KM repository).
    Once you are able to get the correct access link of a WPC web page from its property Content Link, your should see the web page displayed within the entire portal layout framework you configured for your system (i.e. includes masthead, top level and detailed navigation).
    Hope this clarifies a bit.

  • Migration of an existing web site to Web Page Composer

    Hello,
    I am investigating the options and the feasibility of the migration of an existing web site to a Web Page Composer (WPC) site. The web resources of the site can easily be copied to KM and used afterwards in WPC containers. However, they can neither be integrated to the WPC site navigation nor edited through the WPC UI. For example, only WPC Web Page or Web Sites can be WPC navigation nodes.
    Has anyone ever done or tried such a migration? Do you know where I could find a description (or the javadocs) of the WPC API? Any suggestions or hints will be much appreciated.
    Thank you
    Youlian Dimitrov

    Hi Youlian.
    If I understand correctly you have rebuilt only a few hundreds of the old pages using WPC forms. Did you do this manually or you have found a way of migrating them programmatically?
    Yes, we did it manually for a two reasons:
    1. short timetable;
    2. 20 intranet sites with variety of used technologies and tools, styles, navigation structures.
    Did you leave the rest of the pages as HTML (non-WPC) files?
    Yes. But we imported them into KM.
    Does it mean that you have implemented only part of the navigation structure through the WPC/portal navigation?
    Yes and no.
    Firstly, in our case it would be a bad idea to bring all legacy, sometimes cluttered, navigation structure to a new platform as is.
    Secondly, keeping in mind that in a common scenario portal already has own top level navigation you should carefully decide how deep is your site navigation structure will be.
    Finally, migration it is a good time for information architecture redesign based on standards and guidelines.  
    Assuming that you have adjusted properly the links to all resources, have you encountered any particular navigation or display issues following this approach?
    I could remember two limitations concerning a navigation:
    1. you should avoiding links to navigation nodes inside non-wpc html files, because in this case a target page opens without DLN;
    2. first linked non-wpc html page, which placed outside wpc container, should be opened in new window.
    As for design, all our display issues caused by inline styles within source html files.
    Did you notice any noticeable performance degradation after the migration?
    We didn't have any degradation of performance. However, it is highly individual and depends on your portal infrastructure.

  • Web Page Composer

    Hi,
    I am working in EP NW04s SP 14. I am using web page composer for designing a web page. I have followed all the steps and finally assigned the web page in the navigation structure to both the anonymous user and the logged in user. I am able to view the details in logged in user. But the contents are not viewable for an anonymous users.
    I have given anonymous access to page layout, iview templates, security zone as mentioned in the thread
    Web page composer and end user
    We have anonymous access to KM content as specified in the note 837898. But still the contents are not displayed? Any specific reasons?
    Consultants worked in WPC, kindly help...

  • Web page composer-Entry point

    Hi,
    In Web Page composer blog ,in the inital step it is given create web site 'Knowledge Bank'.In that folder 4 folders were created automatically i.e.1) Entry point 2)Site content 3)Site navigation and 4) Web pages. from the following  link :https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/209dd2c1-28ec-2a10-0c90-c0ccebc003e5
    Here in this i need the concept of Entrypoint and what exactly it does in web page

    Hi Vijayalakshmi,
    An entry point provider makes one or more folders available as links that you can access from a central point.
    Please refer to this.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/f6/da3340284e7a56e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
    In this context as soon as you create an entry point, you can upload site specific/ global content and  images or documents into these folders
    Let me know if you still have any questions on it.

  • Web Page  Composer Questions

    Hey again
    Im new to web page composer so here are some questions that i cant seem to find a proper answer to:
    1- Im using  a Framework witch have two zones:
                     Header Component - Normal Iview
                     Content Area - witch changes depending on top level navigation node
                                          This area is mainly build with pages that have detail navigation and a iview to a WPC Page.
                  My problem is: when i preview the iview's im using in content area i can see the WPC im supposed to see , but when i log in as a user that is supossed to have this framework and content as the only available , this iviews to the WPC content are not really showing. the tray is there but no content inside it.
                  What could be the problem?
    2- Im used to have my Custom CSS / JavaScript in components but with wpc that wont be the case anymore as we want people to change content if they want too. is there a way to load CSS's without a "invisible css provider component" ?
    Thanks

  • Web Page Composer - Ordering Automatic lists in Alphabetical order

    Sorry if this is in the wrong place (newbie here)
    I'm trying to order an 'Automatic list' in Alphabetical order - based on page name/title
    So within WPC I have a folder with 10 or so web pages in them. and the next level up I have a page with the 'Dynamic Content' element.
    Within the 'Additional' field of the 'Dynamic Content' element I am able to 'orderBy=modified' or 'orderBy=created' but cannot seem to do what I would think is straightforward and order alphabetically by either name or title.
    Am I missing something simple and obvious?
    Or should I actually be trying to do this by modifying the XSL Template that controls the presentation?
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Hi Alessio,
    have a look at at this thread:
    <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/thread?threadID=599765">Link for your error message</a>
    Or maybe it is because your WPC isn't fully configured for anonymous access.
    To configure it for anonymous access, try this:
    1. Configuration in PCD - go to Content Administration -> Portal Content-> Portal Content -> Web Page Composer -> Container iViews -> WPC
    Default Containers. All of the iViews in this location should have the
    "anonymous" authentication scheme. The next location which should be
    checked is Content Administration -> Portal Content -> Portal Content ->Web Page Composer -> iView Templates. Again all of the iViews should
    have the "anonymous" authentication scheme. The same applies to all the
    templates which reside in Content Administration -> Portal Content ->
    Portal Content -> Web Page Composer -> Page Layout Templates. Finally
    check if all the pages which reside in Content Administration -> Portal
    Content -> Portal Content -> Web Page Composer -> Page Layouts have the
    "anonymous" authentication scheme.
    2. Configuration in KM - make sure that all the pages, which should be
    displayed to an anonymous user have in their permissions the Anonymous
    Users Group.
    3. Security zones - if you go to System Administration -> Permissions ->Security Zones -> com.sap.nw.wpc -> wpc -> no_safety and you open the
    permissions of this object, the Anonymous Users group must be added in
    the list.
    If all mentioned objects have their setting as described and you still
    experience problems (e.g. you see a browser dialog window for
    authentication), the reason most probably is, that the KM is not
    configured for anonymous access. A full description of the needed steps
    is provided with note 837898.
    I think the your error message could be solved with the first link.
    But afterwards you need to perform the steps mentioned above.
    Regards,
    Marcus

  • Custom Layout for Web Page Composer

    I'm tring to follow a guide, to create a custom layout for the web page composer.
    This guide:

    I builded the portal project and I deployed it on the portal.
    Actualy i can see and select my custom layout and i can drop the element on the container from the page builder, but, when i save the content I can't see any elements anymore.
    If I publish the page I see my custom Layout... but empty, without any paragraph or article.

    I'm evaluating Web Page Composer (WPC) for a customer and one of the requirements is time-based publishing for web pages and navigation, but I can’t find any information on that subject.
    Do you know if it’s possible to set up time-based publishing for WPC pages?
    Thanks
    Martin

    FYI.
    I contacted SAP about time-based publishing for WPC pages and unfortunately this feature is not implemented in current versions of WPC. My request has been added to the feature request list for future versions.
    Regards
    Martin

  • IView size in Web Page Composer

    Hi all,
    I have created one page using Web Page Composer. I have designed some forms using XML form builder and created KM navigation iView. If I assigned that iView to page , it takes full height. How can we fixed the height of the iView and what should be given to the properties of iView?
    Help me in this regard.
    Regards,

    Hi
    Maby this will solve your problem:
    Change the Isolation method property on the iView to Embedded.
    (Open your iView properties - Property category: Load - Isolation Method: Embedded)
    This makes (at least some types of) iViews appear on your Web Page Composer page in full height instead of with limited hight and scroll.
