Products.ContentWellPortlets

Overview

  • This product enables you to put portlets in places other than right and left columns, specifically:
    • above the main heading (h1) of the page
    • at the base of the page, above the footer
      In each area, you can add up to three columns of portlets.
  • You should use CSS (in the custom folder in portal_skins, or in your own theme product) to configure how these portlets should appear relative to each other and to the content.
  • This may allow you to create distinctive layouts for pages, folders etc without having to write new zope page templates To install the product

To add portlets above the content

  1. Log into your Plone site as a Manager (or someone else with the "Portlets: Manage portlets" permission)
  2. Go to the place in your site where you want portlets. For example:
    • If you want portlets on your home page only, go to http://yourSiteURL/front-page
    • If you want portlets on your entire site, go to http://yourSiteURL
  3. Bring up a management page by either (a) Clicking the "add, edit or remove portlets link"**; or (b) Adding /@@manage-portletsabovecontent to the end of the URL and hitting "return"
  4. You should see a management page entitled "Manage Portlets Above Content" This gives you the option to add portlets in one or more of three columns: A, B and C You can add as many portlets in each column as you like Other commands (reordering, hiding, blocking portlets) are the same as for the right and left columns
 ** Note: if you are in a folder that has a default page, this will take you to a screen where you can add portlets to that page. If you want to add portlets to all the pages in the folder, make sure you are on the folder rather than the default page (e.g. by clicking the "contents" tab) before clicking the link

To add portlets below the content

Follow the above instructions, but instead of clicking the "add, edit or remove portlets above content" link or adding /@@manage-portletsabovecontent to the URL: (a) Click the "add, edit or remove portlets below the content" link; or (b) Add /@@manage-portletsbelowcontent to the end of the URL
