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.
Cheers,

  • URL iView in Web Page Composer

    Hi,
    I have created a URL iView in the PCD and I wanted to embed this iView in the container of the Web Page Composer page.
    I have created an entry point to the PCD folder that contains the URL iView.  The PCD URL to the iView is
    http://abc.abc.net:50000/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtmode/default/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcontentlib!2fcommercial!2fiviews!2fcollaboration_wpc!2fiviews!2fpetroleum_tmu!2fcom.bhpb.com.gen.url_iview
    The URL iView is a simple URL iView that redirects to http://www.google.com
    When I drag and drop the URL iView to the container, I saw from the container properties that the URL to the iView is change to
    http://abc.abc.net:50000//irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtmode/default/prtroot/pcd!3aportal_content!2fcontentlib!2fcommercial!2fiviews!2fcollaboration_wpc!2fiviews!2fpetroleum_tmu!2fcom.bhpb.com.gen.url_iview
    A additional "/" has been added to behind the port 50000.  This is weird.....!!!!
    It is causing me problems as we have an IIS Proxy that does redirection reading behind the URL characters after the port 50000.
    Can anyone explain????
    Thanks.

  • 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

    2.  Edit the wpcDragExplorerEntryPoints configuration object.
    In the Parameters field, you can enter the following properties:
    Property:  displaymode
    Description:  Specify select
    Property:  maxproviderprio
    Description:  Enter a value for the highest priority number that standard entry points can have and still be displayed in the Web content browser The priority of standard entry points is between 3 and 80. For a list of standard entry points and their priorities, see the configuration at Content Management ® Repository Managers ® Entry Point Providers ® Entry Point Provider.
    Property:  entriesperrow
    Description:  Number of entry points displayed in each row (default: 5)
    Property:  entrypointsprefix
    Description:  Prefix of the entry point repository.  If you specify a value for this parameter, standard KM entry points are also displayed in the Web content browser.  Default: /entrypoints
    Property:  sharedcontent

  • Web Page Composer - Creating Frontpage

    Hi!
    I'm trying to create a frontpage with the web page composer and have some questions. Is it possible to create a normal article and only display the introtext and if you click on it you get to the full article. I think there must be an option to adapt multiple xsl rendering files to the containers in the page layout and other xsl rendering files for the full article view. Or do i have to create a shor article and a normal article and show the short article on the front page and create a link to the full article, but this is not really effective. I have read all articles about the web page composer but didn't find any conclusion.
    Another question is about the iviews. I managed to create an entry point for iviews, but if I assign an ivew to a container, the front page automatically redirects to a new page with the iview in it. I wanted to integrate a calendar iview. Is there any tutorial for this, didn't find one.
    Thank you very much.

    Ponraj -
    Procedure
    1. In the Web Page Composer, navigate to the Web page that you want to integrate into the portal navigation.
    2. To copy the path to the Web page to the clipboard, choose Copy Path from the context menu for the Web page.
    3. Choose Content Administration → Portal Content.
    4. Choose New → iView from the context menu of a folder.
    5. Choose Portal Component as the source type.
    6. Choose the com.sap.nw.wpc.runtime portal archive. On the next screen to appear, choose default.
    7. Once you have created the iView, choose the Web Page Composer category in the property editor.
    8. In the RID of Compound Document property, enter the path to the KM folder representing the Web page.
    Example: /wpccontent/Sites/MyWebSite/Web Pages/MyWebPage
    You can paste this path from the clipboard.
    9. Open the workset or role that you created when you carried out the initial configuration.
    10. To add the iView to the workset or role, choose Add iView to Workset/Role → Deltalink from the context menu of the iView.

  • 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.

  • Web Page Composer - Edit HTML Pages?

    Hi,
    I'm looking at the web page composer on our SP13 NW04s portal. I'm look at it to possibly replace a few portal pages I have that are simply url iviews pointing to html pages. My question, when I put the html page in my km and place it in the wpc iviews on the layout, is there anyway to edit the html from the editor's perspective? or is the only way to edit the html pages used to give the "web content author" access to the km folder of the html pages?
    If not, is there any way to for the web page composer articles to incorporate our style sheet?

    Hi Chris,
    no you can't edit the html files directly in WPC Editors perspective.
    You can find the style sheets for WPC articles in KM at:
    Content Admin -> KM Content -> etc-> wpceditor -> css

    These are some of the css files that I have modified :
    root > etc > wpceditor > css > runtime > sdn_general.css
    root > etc > wpceditor > css > runtime > content.css
    root > etc > wpceditor > css > runtime > sdn_apps.css
    In particular, change the sdn_general.css and it will be changed.
    It works for us....
