how to use a group
Version: Jetspeed 1.4 I've searched the mailing list, tutorials, and jetspeed website, but I'm still confused as to how to use a Group. From what I understand (please correct me if I'm wrong): 1. A group is NOT a group of users but a group of resources/pages. 2. You define a group psml file in the psml/group//... directory. This psml contains (or references) portlet sets that pertain to the group. An given example was an HR group with portlets of interest to HR users. 3. You can access the group psml file directly through the browser url, or as a reference from another psml. What confuses me about groups is: 1. Regardless of their group associations, as long as the user has the correct role they can access the group page (via url, or another psml reference). If this is correct, then why bother assigning a user to a group, as no group related security checks seem to be involved when accessing the page? 2. How would a user without the admin role (more specifically, the ability to add a reference when customizing a pane) be able to reference the group psml? 3. Likewise, how does an admin modify a user's psml file when they can't access it due to security restrictions? Is it something along the lines of having the user's default security-ref configuration have owner AND admin? 4. If a new group profile is created, how do I force it appear as a tab to users? 5. Am I expecting too much from Jetspeed's default functionality? i.e. are these custom features that I'll need to add myself?

If in JetspeedResource.properties automatic.logout.save = true, when this new user logs out, new psml is created for the user and saved on file system. This psml is cloned from role_abc with all new unique portlet IDs generated by Jetspeed. I delete the user psml file in psml browser in this case. These are the steps and observed results of new user creation: Pre-condition: role_abc exists with role specific psml in place. in JetspeedResource.properties automatic.logout.save = false. In admin interface create new user. Keep it as disabled at the time of creation. >From user browser edit user roles. By default, Jetspeed asigns role user, editor opens with this role selected. Uncheck default role user, check role role_abc, save. Check psml browser, there is no psml entry for new user. Open new browser instance, login as new user. Page displayed after user login represents correct layout for role_abc, BUT it appears that Jetspeed cloned psml layout defined for ROLE role_abc as USER layout, because all URLs on the page represent references to portlets with new unique portlet IDs that represent user URLS like: Menu Item URL: http://localhost:8080/abc/portal/media-type/html/user/user_xyz/page/default.psml/js_pane/P-f8ad89196e-10006 If at this point I put in browser URL: http://localhost:8080/abc/portal/media-type/html/role/role_abc and refresh browser, the desired psml for ROLE role_abc is used to render the page and all URLs use pane and portlet IDs defined in role_abc psml file. I would like this behavior of loading role based psml layout to occur for the first page rendered for logged in user. Is it possible to do it? Any suggestions/recommendations are welcome.

Submitting Left.jsp
We have created a menu (list of hyperlinks) in left.jsp and onclick of the hyperlink wish to update a parameter value in rundata.

Re: Please help with role based PSML usage
Make sure the following two properties are set in JetspeedResources.properties: services.Profiler.rolefallback=true services.Profiler.newuser.template= If user_xyz has a psml page defined, you may try deleteing it. I think the way the profiler works, it will pick up user-based psml FIRST, and then look for role-based psml if no user psml exists. Your initial form submit action doesn't get called because it's calling a portlet that, at the time, doesn't exist in Jetspeed's mind. It seems counterintuitive, but I believe that's the case. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/05/03 05:13PM >>> Hello, I know it is a pretty long post, but I really tried to compress it to bare minimum. We would like to implement role based security and layout for our portal. We auto generate xreg and psml files based on information defined in a document of a certain structure, with base Portlet IDs in xreg file and instance Portlet IDs in psml files generated based on some rule. We use instance portlet IDs from PSML files to construct URLs in JSP based portlets for form submit, etc. Majority of links reference OTHER portlets! The current setup: - user account user_xyz exists that has only one role role_abc - a psml file defined in WEB-INF/psml/role/role_abc/html/default.psml When user user_xyz logs in, the picture is: - rendered page with the proper layout defined in default.psml for role role_abc. - all links of tabs and menu items reference unique (generated by JetSpeed) portlet IDs instead of the ones that are defined in default.psml for role_abc. (This is a problem for us!) - browser (IE) URL: http://localhost:8080/abc/portal It looks like all links on the page are user URLs, not ROLE URLs. As example, TAB URL: http://localhost:8080/abc/portal/media-type/html/user/user_xyz/page/default.psml/js_pane/P-f8ad89196e-10016 Menu Item URL: http://localhost:8080/abc/portal/media-type/html/user/user_xyz/page/default.psml/js_pane/P-f8ad89196e-10006 Clicking on menu item brings properly rendered portlet with our HARDCODED links in html body that reference portlet IDs that we created and placed into PSML file. Form submit URL that we construct looks like: Inst1PortletName is portlet name in our generated file .../role/role_abc/html/default.psml. Form submit leads to page reload (without executing expected action) with all URLs on reloaded page being from WEB-INF/psml/role/role_abc/html/default.psml - as we would like it to be. The other way to achieve loading of the main page with links as defined in psml file that we generate is to change browser URL to (and refresh): http://localhost:8080/abc/portal/media-type/html/role/role_abc/ There are 2 questions: 1. Is it a proper way to construct site layout and links when using JetSpeed? 2.

Re: Newbie Design Question
I just recently went through a similar process trying to integrate a new design (not done myself) with Jetspeed. It was a beneficial process to fight my way through the Turbine/Jetspeed rendering jungle. Just as an example, here are a couple screens of the layout (only about 85% done). They're not mockups; Jetspeed did draw these and it does all work. :)http://stumod.com/jetspeed/public.png http://stumod.com/jetspeed/staff.png You will :probably: not have to write your own controller(s), but that'll depend a lot on what sort of layout you're trying to accomplish. Here are a couple tips: - layouts/default.vm draws the tag; start here. - controls/jetspeed.vm gets called for each portlet on the page. - controllers.xreg and controls.xreg can tell you what templates get called when you're using a particular control/controller. To answer a few of your questions: - putting a nav portlet drawn by the framework up in the top nav area may be a challenge. I would bet there is a solution that would work w/o using a portlet, though. (a simple vm with $jslink()'s to other templates or psml for instance) - Changing the menu from L to R is trivial. I ended up having write a control to handle the left-hand submenu and a controller to handle the nested tabs. Both were pretty simple deals, really. I'd also really recommend gutting all of the table tags Jetspeed comes with and use css. It will makes things a thousand times easier in the long run. hth, stu >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/06/03 02:42PM >>> I have followed the Jetspeed tutorial, wrote my first portlet, and have a basic understanding of how things are working. Now I want to expand on that knowledge and start making some pretty big changes. For example, do I have to write a new controller to change the layout to something other than the ones that come with Jetspeed, or is it as easy as modifying a velocity template somewhere? What if I'd like to replace the top navigation with a navigation portlet, can I do that easily or do I have to write something new to do it? I know how to turn off the left navigation but what if instead I'd like it on the right side? I'd really like to work with what Jetspeed provides but at the same time I'm not sure of all it can provide and don't want to reinvent the wheel. As a proof of concept, I'd like to start with changing the layout to mirror our corporate intranet. I thought it would be as easy as changing a few velocity templates but it seems there is quite an interplay between turbine, velocity, and a number of other Jakarta components making understanding things a little more challenging. I'd also like to provide LDAP authentication Can someone point me to hints on how I could go about customizing Jetspeed's presentation without ending up writing my own portal?
