Pre-configuring the subadministrators for virtual portals

We can configure the roles and access rights assigned to subadministrators on portlets of a virtual portal globally and before creating a virtual portal. The following steps must be completed on your initial portal installation.

1. Open the Manage Portlets portlet by clicking the Administration menu icon in the toolbar. Then, click Portlet Management > Portlets.

2. In the list of portlets, locate the Virtual Portal Manager portlet.

3. Click the Configure Portlet (wrench) icon of the Virtual Portal Manager portlet.

4. Perform the following steps, depending on the requirements for the virtual portals:

   1. To change the list of portlets, to which the subadministrators have access:

      1. Edit the portletListNeedAccess parameter of the portlet. Remove those portlets for which we want the subadministrators of the virtual portals to have no access rights.

      2. Add portlets as required by adding the unique names of the portlets to the list. We might need to take a note of the list and remove the parameter, and then enter the parameter with the updated list.
      The default list contains all portlets listed under Content of a virtual portal.

   2. To change the access rights that are granted to the subadministrators on the portlets of virtual portals, edit the actionSetName parameter of the portlet and change the role that to assign to the subadministrators to the role that fits the requirements. The default role is EDITOR. We might need to take a note of the parameter and remove it, and then reenter the parameter with the updated value. We can enter the following values: Administrator, Security Administrator, Delegator, Manager, Privileged User, User.

      Subadministrators have the roles that we assign to them on all the portlets listed under the portletListNeedAccess parameter of the Virtual Portal Manager portlet (see the previous step).

5. Click OK to save the changes.

6. Assign the virtual portal subadministrators administrator rights on the JCR root as required.
