FPN (Federated Portal) and WPC (Web Page Composer)

Hi all,
We implemented various web sites based on WPC (Web Page Composer) and now we need to federate this instance with other consumer nodes.
I read on SAP 880842 note that it's not possible to federate WPC.
Is there any options to federate sites developed in WPC?
What can I do in this scenario?
Thanks!

Thanks again Marcus.
But we can't use this option because we'll loose the WPC structure... It will need to be rebuild all site navigations...
We are working now with WPC content mirror (copying content from one server to another).
But we still need some help. We need to automatic copy KM content. Can you help us in this case too?

New Pagelayout in Web page composer and TREX problem

Hello Experts-
I have created a custom page layout for web page composer pages. I havent included it any bundle file to, because we use it only for english language. Everything works as desired. But any new page created with this layout. System is not able to index it. Its fails to index with preparation failed error.
Does it have anything to do with the budnle file?
All other pages are getting indexed.
We are on EP 7.018 version of portal and same withh web page composer too.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks,
Raj.

WPC Web Page Composer Change Component Layout

Hi,
how can I change the component layout in a Web Page Composer template.
For instance, I want to change the fonts and color for the title in the "Teaser" form.
Or I want to change the color of the links and the font size in the "Link List".
I have already created a new Layout, but I can't see anything to change the CSS-Parameters for the component layout.

Karl,
To answer your question, you will have to create your own web forms and then drag and drop to the container of the page layout to have the page rendered in the required style. This involves you creating the xml and xsl files corresponding to the new webform and refering the style(present in your own css file) in the XSL file associated wtih the new webform. Not only that there are quite a few configurations to be done.
Refer to the following sdn help to create new webforms - http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/45/599b78b0aa3bdde10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm Hope it helps.

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 in CE 7.2?

Hello All,
We are implementing the Portal for our customer. As the customer requires a flashy screen we suggested CE 7.2. But, we noticed that Web Page Composer does not come along with CE 7.2. WPC is a very important component and it is critical for our implementation.
Kindly let me know, if WPC can be applied for CE 7.2 using patches? Also, can KM be applied to CE 7.2 using patches? What is the workaround?
Note: In the worst case scenario, we will suggest CE 7.3 but are wary of its stability.
Thank you.
Regards,
Sharath

Hello,
I agree that we can use NW 7.0 EHP 2 to use the enhanced portal features. Also, with this we do not need to worry about the avilability of Web Page Composer and KM( as they exist with 7.0).
To facilitate the WD java applications with features of flash we are exploring an instance of SAP NW 7.2. Later make these applications available in 7.0 EHP2 portal using Federated portal network.
Request all your inputs regarding this architecture.
Thank you.
Regards,
Sharath

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

We have anonymous access to KM content as specified in the note 837898. But still the contents are not displayed? Any specific reasons?

Approval in Web Page Composer

hi Gurus,
We are trying to use Web Page Composer and created some web pages, now we have enabled the approval process.
Once we submit for appoval, the approver does not get any notification/mail rergarding the approval.
How do we enable the notification/mail triggering part to the person who has to approve it.
Thanks in advance.
Kris

Hi Paul,
I am following the same document to implement the approval process for web page composer. When submit the wpc page for approval, its not going to the approers' UWL instead its getting published. End users are seeing the modifications on the wpc page.
Am I missing any settings on the system to enable for workflow on the wpc page?
P.S: I enabled approval process on the wpc page (settings->Approval->Enable Approval Process). After enabling the approval process, I see a button (Approval) coming up on the wpc page properties beside the "Publish" button in the design time. When I use this button to submit the wpc page for approval, the wpc page is not staged for approval.
We are on EP7.0 EhP1 SP4.
Please advice.

Web page composer vs XFB?

Hi All,
what are the pros and cons of developing an external facing portal using a web page composer vs using XML FORMS BUILDER?
could you please let me know?

Hi Reddy,
To compare the two is not very easy.
The XML Forms Builder is a very clunky tool. It allows the creation of simply forms which would be more suited to internal news items or the like.
The WPC is a very complex tool. It allows the creation of many templates with all kinds of permutations. I mean, look at the rich and diverse content pages that we are able to create on SDN. Do you think you could do similar with the XFB?
Do a search across the Blogs for "Web Page Composer" and have a look at some of the results. You will see how easy it is to create content and how versatile a template can be created.
Try this one in particular:
<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/5924">Create and publish a web page with WPC</a>
However, if you really like the XML Forms then you could even embed an XML Forms iView in your WPC Page since it is also possible to add iViews from the PCD to your WPC Page
Good Luck,
Marc

Transporting custom Web page composer page layout

Hello Experts-
I made a custom page layout for making pages via web page composer and configured all the KM settings. It works fine in Dev. Just want to know. What are the steps in transporting it.
I am sure, I have to layout template and the page. All the container iviews already exist int he system. SO, I guess I don't have to transport them. But, KM transport. What all are in need in config archive or kmc file if needed . PLease let me know.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Raj

Hi Raj,
In WPC following 3 type of transport required,
1) For PCD development
2) KM Development ( eg xml , xsl etc)
3) System configuration.
For system config transport refer the [transport config thread|https://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7243585]

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.

Approval process in Web page composer

Hi there,
We are building static pages using web page composer and trying to implement the KM approval process for those static pages. Now my questions are:
1. What should be the value I need to give for the folders for service permissions (Layout, collaboration,Full control etc...) for anonymous users
2. What should be the value I need to give for the folders for service permissions (Layout, collaboration,Full control etc...) for users with approval authorities
Your help is highly appreciated
Regards,
Ponraj M

Hi,
The approval process has nothing to do with the service permissions. It's regular permissions you should be concerned about, for example: If a user is a permissions owner of a folder then he will be able to skip the approval process or If a user has only read permissions then he will be able to view only approved documents.
Best regards,
Avishai Zamir

Placed iview on webpage in web page composer - get 404

    has anyone come across this please?
    I have successfully made Iviews visible to KM for web page composer and so I was able to drag and drop the iview onto the page but immediately got a 404 the requested resource is not available.
the iview has end user read permissions so I dont think it's a permission problem.
thanks for any advice,

Hi Epexpert,
      I have already looked at the log files. You get this message which is puzzling:

particluraly puzzling is the irjj in the path just after the hostname....
