Embed JSF portlet on a vm template

New Member Posts: 13 Join Date: 3/2/20 Recent Posts

Hello there,We are trying to embed a JSF portlet into a WC VM template but it fails.

$theme.runtime("download_WAR_VPPportlet", $portletProviderAction.VIEW)

$theme.runtime("download_WAR_VPPportlet", $portletProviderAction.VIEW, "", $!default_preferences)

we get the following message:

"An app that can VIEW download_WAR_VPPportlet belongs here. Please contact the portal administrator or install such an app from the Liferay Marketplace."

when you chek the list of availabe portlet , the portlet is in the list but it is disabled as it is not instanciable.How this can be done?José

Hi José,
Is your portlet instanceable? See the following portlet.xml as an example:
https://github.com/liferay/liferay-faces-bridge-impl/blob/master/demo/jsf-applicant-portlet/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/liferay-portlet.xml#L7

If it is instanceable, the portlet key would need to look something more like "download_WAR_VPPportlet_INSTANCE_a000"
Also, you need to make sure that you have the "download_WAR_VPPportlet" portlet ID correct. I just inspected the HTML source of a Liferay Portal 7.2 page for the aforementioned jsf-applicant-portlet and was able to find the portlet ID in the surrounding markup like the following:

<div class="portlet-boundary portlet-boundary_1_WAR_comliferayfacesdemojsfapplicantportlet_ portlet-borderless portlet-draggable yui3-dd-drop" id="p_p_id_1_WAR_comliferayfacesdemojsfapplicantportlet_INSTANCE_yDWcvpNnSjzj_">
&nbsp; &nbsp; <span id="p_1_war_comliferayfacesdemojsfapplicantportlet_instance_ydwcvpnnsjzj">
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; </span id="p_1_war_comliferayfacesdemojsfapplicantportlet_instance_ydwcvpnnsjzj"></div>

Hi Neil,
The portlet is not instantiable. The problem has been solved migrating the templates to FreeMarker; with ftl no problem all works as expected.
Cheers,
José
