Change a page's layout
Hi,
I created some new pages in the portal and want to try out different layout formats (e.g. three columns, two columns small left, etc.).
I tried to modify the layout by both editing the .psml file and through the edit mode of the page.
However, no matter which layout I set, it's still using the default two columns (50%, 50%) layout. It seems that the portlet config cannot be properly retrieve, so the layout portlet always use the default value.
Kindly advice on where I should check in order to fix the problem.
Thanks a lot
Clarence

if you edit your psml file in the editor, please change the fragment's id.
if you change the portlet.xml , please restart your tomcat.

Dear Cubehead,
Actually I've tried both ways but still can't fix the problem.
I modified the layout.vm to display the no. of columns in the page, and it always display 2, even though I have changed the layout to "jetspeed-layouts::VelocityOneColumn"
I believe that it somehow fail to retrieve the portlet config.

hi.
you have 2 ways to fix the problem.
1. change the portlet.xml of the layout portlet application
change value of the init-param ViewPage of the you want to use portlet from
"columns" to "tcolumns".
2. change the layout.vm.
there is a solution.
change the follow lines in the
WEF-INF/templates/layout/html/columns/layout.vm
-----------------------------------
#*
#if ($columnLayout.getColumnWidth($sizeIndex) > 0)
#set($columnWidth = $columnLayout.getColumnWidth($sizeIndex))
#end
*#
#set ($sizeIndex = $sizeIndex + 1)
<div id="column-$sizeIndex" class="portal-layout-column" >
------------------------------
into
-----------------------------
#if ($sizes.size() > $sizeIndex)
#set($columnWidth = $sizes.get($sizeIndex))
#end
#set ($sizeIndex = $sizeIndex + 1)
<div id="column-$sizeIndex" class="portal-layout-column"
style="width:$columnWidth;padding-left:0px;">
-----------------------------
And modify the css class , "portal-layout-cell" , in the style.css file of
your decorator.
add the padding-left and padding-right to the class.
there is a sample:
.portal-layout-cell
{
padding-bottom: 4px;
padding-left: 5px;
padding-right: 5px;
}
then the layout portlet will work well.

hi.
you have 2 ways to fix the problem.
1. change the portlet.xml of the layout portlet application
change value of the init-param ViewPage of the you want to use portlet from
"columns" to "tcolumns".
2. change the layout.vm.
there is a solution.
change the follow lines in the
WEF-INF/templates/layout/html/columns/layout.vm
-----------------------------------
#*
#if ($columnLayout.getColumnWidth($sizeIndex) > 0)
#set($columnWidth = $columnLayout.getColumnWidth($sizeIndex))
#end
*#
#set ($sizeIndex = $sizeIndex + 1)
<div id="column-$sizeIndex" class="portal-layout-column" >
------------------------------
into
-----------------------------
#if ($sizes.size() > $sizeIndex)
#set($columnWidth = $sizes.get($sizeIndex))
#end
#set ($sizeIndex = $sizeIndex + 1)
<div id="column-$sizeIndex" class="portal-layout-column"
style="width:$columnWidth;padding-left:0px;">
-----------------------------
And modify the css class , "portal-layout-cell" , in the style.css file of
your decorator.
add the padding-left and padding-right to the class.
there is a sample:
.portal-layout-cell
{
padding-bottom: 4px;
padding-left: 5px;
padding-right: 5px;
}
then the layout portlet will work well.
