Use Case: You want to be able to create a number of subsites
within a Plone instance. Each subsite needs to act like a portal unto
itself, except that it will have no independent membership component.
Each will typically be maintained by only a few persons.
A
PloneMiniPortal is a folderish object that acts like the root of a
simplified portal. PloneMiniPortal provides two major components of
this:
- The MiniPortal object itself, which allows the manager of a MiniPortal to control many aspects of its presentation and behavior.
- Replacements for the navigation, news and upcoming events portlets, the search box, and the event and news tabs that start their searches at the MiniPortal object. This makes a MiniPortal object act -- in many ways -- like a portal root.
The MiniPortals product was developed for a community network that wishes to be able to
allocate easily maintained simple web sites to community groups.
