Editing the contents of a portlet

[Mark Pemburn]

Hi,

Our university is using uPortal 4.3, and I am charged with maintaining it as best I can.  I need to make what should be a relatively simple change to a portlet, and have only the sketchiest idea of how to do this.  

In essence, the portlet used to connect to service that is no longer available, and I need to simply have it display a link to the service that replaces it.  From what I can see, the code in the portlet-definition.xml file points to a .jsp class (cuOneCard.jsp):

 

<portlet-preference>
<name>PluggableDataJspPortlet.Controller.jspName</name>
<readOnly>false</readOnly>
<value>cuOneCard</value>
</portlet-preference>
<portlet-preference>
<name>PluggableDataPortlet.Service.datasourceBeanName</name>
<readOnly>false</readOnly>
<value>cuOneCard</value>
</portlet-preference>

Can someone tell me what I need to do to change this to show an HTML link?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Mark,

Sorry for the late reply. I missed this email.

If you have access to the portlet admin UI, you can create a simple content portlet instance to replace this one. It would allow updating a simple link with ease.

For a datafile example, see https://github.com/uPortal-Project/uPortal-start/blob/master/data/quickstart/portlet-definition/please-register.portlet-definition.xml

Hope this helps!
