                 Key: OFBIZ-3951
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3951
             Project: OFBiz
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ALL COMPONENTS
    Affects Versions: Release Branch 10.04, SVN trunk
            Reporter: BJ Freeman
             Fix For: Release Branch 10.04, SVN trunk


when a portlet has replaced the current component widget the under lying Help 
that may exist is nullified.
Also when Help is shown for a portlet is uses Portlet names for the help that 
has no relationship to the actual UI as the user sees it.
This counter intuitive and cause confusion to a User.

I looked and it was confusing and not intuitive on the help
First question from a users point of view
What is a Portal, as I search the page for something that says portal.
So I am interested in help on the User Names
I look at the list and see nothing that refers to User names.
Again I look around the page to see anything label as User Login Portal.

Now because I am familar with ofbiz I guessed the user Login Portal is the one 
for User Names.

I have not run one of my apps that call party pages against this version.
I expect i will have to modify. That does not make me happy camper with 50 apps 
to do that with.
