Portlet for Editing the Current Page

The edit-page portlet allows the user to edit the document currently displayed in the portal by means of the editorial system, i.e. the Content Navigator.

Using this portlet requires a separate license.

Operation

Clicking the link displayed by the portlet causes a Content Navigator page to be opened in which the corresponding document is selected. If the user is logged into the portal, the portlet tries to log the user into the Content Navigator using the user's user name and password. If this fails, the log-in page is displayed.

This portlet is very useful if the portal users also work as editors in the CMS.

Configuration

As with all other portlets, the layout of this portlet is defined by means of Velocity templates located in the /WEB-INF/templates directory of the PM web application. The layout can be adapted as desired.

Usage

The portlet can be placed into layout files by means of the following instruction:

<npspm includePortlet="/PM-IP/editPage" ... />
