Re: How to create a new skin and add custom mode to it in jetspeed2?

[Randy Watler <wa...@wispertel.net>]

Sunil,

The best way to start with the decorators is to make a copy of them and
tinker!

Decorators can be deployed by jaring them up and dropping them into the
webapps/jetspeed/WEB-INF/deploy directory, (the jar file must contain
the *.properties and *.vm files at the top level and folders for css and
images filled appropriately). There might be a small bug in the 2.0
release deployer, but we'll fix that soon. In the interim, you should be
able to edit them in place or copy new ones into the existing
webapps/jetspeed/decorators directory.

If you need to add a new custom mode, that is more complicated. I am not
sure J2 supports this without code changes. I am sure David Taylor can
give you some input there, or you can try to search the mailing list
archives.

HTH,

Randy
