automatically deploy one portlet inside the dashboard on jbo

[felipefo]

Hi there,
I'm using jboss-portal-2.6.4

I want to deploy my portlet directly inside my dashboard view.
I already make my portlet appear in the portal pages but when I try change the <parent-ref> tag





<if-exists>overwrite</if-exists>

<parent-ref>dashboard.dashboardpage</parent-ref> --> I don't know how to find this path ?

I get a error message telling me that the path this path is wrong, so should I make another thing to automatically deploy my portlet inside the dashboard? Is there a way to do that?

Thanks.

Hi,

watch the \jboss-portal.sar\conf\data\default-object.xml for

dashboard portal. Configure the template portal, then your portlets will

occur in the dashboards.

One more question.
I would like to create pages on the dashboard for all user that have a specific role.

Is there an way to do that?


<if-exists>overwrite</if-exists>
<parent-ref>dashboard:(role??)</parent-ref>

<page-name>mypagename</page-name>
.....



I want to create a new page on one user dashboard like this:
<parent-ref>dashboard:user</parent-ref> --> so if i deploy in this way it will create a new page on the user dashboard, How can I do the same but for a role?

Thanks

Felipe

Hi,

ENV Details:
JBoss portal - 2.6.5.SP1
Jboss App Server - 4.2.2.GA

I have the same requirement of adding my portlet as an alreday existing portlet on dashboard page and removing the default portlets that appear on dashboard - CMSPortlet, JSPPortlet, IdentityUserPortlet. As suggested in this thread, I tried modifying default-object.xml as shown below, but it does not work for me. I cannot see my portlet on the dashboard and can still see the 3 default portlets. Any suggestions ?

here are the contents of my default-object.xml

Hello,

Did you find a solution to your question? I tried modifying default-object.xml as specified and it doesn't work for me either. I still only see the default 3 portlets.

Using JBoss portal - 2.6.6

Thanks

Hi,

You should modify your template portal with admin user. After this, create a new user. This user must have your new dashboard configuration. Old users keep the old template configuration (the one when they were created).
