So CONFIG is baked into various framework bits so that the portal knows how to make the portlet APIs behave when in this mode. As a protection I believe there is a permission check associated with the ability to render a portlet in CONFIG.
Give it a try, make CMS render a CONFIG portlet url, click on it and see what happens :) On Fri, Jan 24, 2014 at 9:00 AM, James Wennmacher <jwennmac...@unicon.net>wrote: > More broadly, is this a case of delegated admin (e.g. for tenant-based > delegated admin use case) that should be accessible for these > tenant-contained sets of portlets? > > Do the delegated admins need to do only the rich config, full portlet > configuration (add/remove porlets), or limited portlet admin (some but not > all the properties configured by the Portlet Manager)? > > James Wennmacher - Unicon > 480.558.2420 > > > On 01/24/2014 09:50 AM, Drew Wills wrote: > >> Thanks for chiming in. >> >> On 01/24/2014 09:44 AM, Eric Dalquist wrote: >> >>> Normal users can never use CONFIG.
