Portlet title - using common resource bundle for all portlets

Hi,

We use a common resource bundle containing translatable strings for 8 different languages

mycompany_en_US.properties
mycompany_es_US.properties
...
...
...

i have 3 portlets and i have defined resource bundle in portlet.xml
<resource-bundle>mycompany</resource-bundle>

As per the documentation each resource bundle can i have one entry for javax.portlet.title.

As i have 3 portlets with different titles using a common resource bundle. How do i define different titles for each of my portlet in resourcebundle and reference them in portlet.xml

Hi Sanjay,

Please try with following concept, hope it may helps you

javax.portlet.title.<portlet-id>=Portlet Title

For e.g.,

javax.portlet.title.my-portlet=My Test Portlet

Thanks Pinkesh,

I am assuming the protlet-id is as defined for individual portlets in liferay-display.xml

Portlet id is the name declared in the portlet.xml.

e.g. In the following example from liferay's portlet-custom.xml, portlet-id is 2.
<portlet-name>2</portlet-name>

Hi Sanjay,

If you want to create site pages through portal UI then it is not possible.

You must have to pass required values manually in UI at the time of page creation.

But if you are trying to create site pages through your code then you can do it by reading property file.

I hope it might resolved your query.
