This portlet shows a content item as content in the portlet. It's LinguaPlone aware, and is initially created to provide a language-dependent address footer.

Compatibility
The product is compatible with Plone 3 and Plone 4.
Tested on Plone 3.3.5 and Plone 4.0b5.
Installing
Add collective.portlet.content to your buildout and re-run buildout. Install the product in your Plone site using the Plone Control Panel (prefs_install_products_form) or the ZMI's portal_quickinstaller.
Using
Go to @@manage-portlets. If the product was installed properly, you'll have the option to add a Content Portlet.
Next, select a content item to display. It can be any type of item. You can select which of the item's fields you want to display in the portlet's content area:
- Title (either as a link to the content item or as plain text)
- Description
- Date
- Body text
- Image
When the content item doesn't have a selected field, it should work without errors, but you'd obviously not see the field in the portlet.
You can set these options separately:
- portlet's title as shown in @@manage-portlets screen
- portlet header title as rendered on page (use content's title or select custom)
- hide portlet header altogether
- conditionally show a portlet footer with a link to the content item (link text is configurable)
- disable the portlet border
