The main ResourceBundleService files listed in this configure file that if you want to add new package to your Portal you can change and add new file to it;(02portal.war:/WEB-INF/conf/common/common-configuration.xml)

Navigation Resource Bundles

The properties for a group must be in the WEB-INF/classes/locale/navigation/ {group | user | portal} / folder;

content of executive-board_fa.properties:

All shipped portlet resources are located in the locale/portlet subfolder;

1. Create {porlet_name}_fa.properties
2. In portlet.xml add this lines:

    <supported-locale>fa</supported-locale>
    <resource-bundle>locale.portlet.{portlet_name}</resource-bundle>
