Share pages

Users can share pages with other users. These users have to accept the shared pages before they can view them.

• Deploy mashup integration by following the instructions in the topic about Enable mashup integration in the portal.

• To enable page sharing, but not mashup integration, run the following configuration task:

  ConfigEngine.sh deploy-portal-page-sharing 
                      -DWasPassword=was_password
                      -DPortalAdminPwd=portal_password

  For virtual portals add the parameter for specifying the context of the virtual portal-DVirtualPortalContext=vp_context_root:

  ConfigEngine.sh deploy-portal-page-sharing 
                      -DWasPassword=was_password
                      -DPortalAdminPwd=portal_password
                      -DVirtualPortalContext=vp_context_root

• Users who accepted shared pages from within a page hierarchy of the user who shared the pages might still see the accepted pages after the sharing user deleted a page higher in the hierarchy. This applies only to descendant pages below the shared page in the hierarchy; pages that are shared directly become invisible to other users as expected when the sharing user deletes them.
  Example:

  1. User X creates a page hierarchy of page a with page b under page a.

  2. User X shares page b with user Y.

  3. User Y accepts page b.

  4. User X deletes page a.

  5. Results:

     • User X deleted page a; this also deleted all descendant pages including page b. Consequently user X cannot see page b any more.

     • However, user Y can still see page b.

  Configure access control for sharing pages (mandatory)

  To enable users to use the sharing functionality, for example, when they work with page builder or mashup integration (both for personal pages and pages within Mashup Spaces), you need to log in to the portal as an administrator and manually set the appropriate access control settings. This configuration is mandatory.
  Share pages with other users

  You can share pages that you created or customized with other users. This works for both individual users as well as groups of users in company.
  View and add shared pages

  When a user shares a page with other users, these users have to accept the shared pages before they can view them.
  Change the rendering mode of a shared page

  You can change the rendering mode of shared pages between client side aggregation and server side aggregation.

Change the rendering mode of a shared page

You can change the rendering mode of shared pages between client side aggregation and server side aggregation. For shared pages you cannot change the rendering mode page directly by editing the page properties, but you need to edit the base page that you have shared under the Shared Pages root node. Proceed by the following steps:

1. Navigate to the Manage Pages portlet in the portal administration.

2. Select Content Root -> Shared Pages.

3. Click the Edit Page Properties icon for the name of shared page.

4. Under Aggregation - Render Mode select the appropriate radio button.

5. Click OK.
