portal desktops

[Former Member]

Hi,

I want to give a web dynpro application in the portal a different theme (not the one in the portal)

I created a desktop and assigned it to another theme , and assigned it to a page in my project ,

but when i view this page i still see the portal theme settings

whats the problem in what i have done, and is there another way to acheive my goal (another theme for specific application)

Hi,

If u assign the portal desktop with different theme, then anyway that theme will be affecting all the applications assigned to that desktop. That is why u can't get the theme for application different from portal. The property in webdynpro iView 'Use portal stylesheet' as 'no' removes the portal theme for the webdynpro application. For providing theme to it, check this blog.

hi,

you can Add a theme to a portal desktop

by going to

System Administration > Portal Display > Desktops & Display Rules

1) Click on the Search tab. Select Entire Portal Catalog where to search in and Portal Desktop as object type. Finally press the Search button. Now all portal desktops are listed up by the CC. Select a desktop and hit the the Enter key (or just double-click on the desktop of your choice) which causes an edit session to be created in the right pane.

2) Click on the Browse tab. Then expand both Folder Portal Content and Folder themes. All themes should either exist here or in a child folder of themes. Select a theme and click the right mouse button. A context menu pops up where you have to click on menu item Add Theme to Portal Desktop.

3)Click on the Save button on the top of the desktop edit session.

Not sure if this will work, just thinking aloud... but there might be a way of doing this with portal aliases. If somehow you could get your application to called via a separate alias , then you would simply use the master display rules to separate it out to the different themes per url alias.

If your page was essentially pointing to your application - with the different alias in the URL. hacky, hacky, hacky
