hi,
i had the same problem. my solution was to update the following class
JetspeedVelocityPage
in the package
package org.apache.jetspeed.modules.pages;
in this class you can put the logic in the context, like i did so:
/* put the external information into the context */
String username = data.getUser().getUserName();
try {
context.put("external", new Boolean(new
CommonLogic().isExternalUser().toString()));
} catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace();
}
after this, you can go to the top.vm and get the output.
kind regards,
markus
