To create the Portal Project example yourself, follow these steps:
- Create a new portal project using Portal Project wizard.
- Open Portal Designer.
- Change the titles of the label and page created by default using the Properties view (from the Title page). Change Label1 to Call Center, and Page1 to Trouble Ticket.
- Insert a root column into the Trouble Ticket page using the Portal palette.
- Insert a new row above the existing row in the Trouble Ticket page using the Portal palette.
- Insert a new column to right of the existing column in the lower row on the page using the Portal palette.
- Insert the three portlets used in the Portal Project sample into the Trouble Ticket page layout. You must first import the portlets from the Faces Portlet sample in the Samples Gallery. You must import the JSR 168 API version of the sample. Add the portlets using the Portal palette.
- Insert the Customer List portlet into the upper row.
- Insert the Trouble Ticket List portlet into the left column in the lower row.
- Insert the Trouble Ticket Detail portlet into the right column in the lower row.
- Optionally, change the look and feel of portal elements. For example:
- Change the current WebSphere theme to the Finance theme using the Properties view.
- Change the default Outline skin to the Album skin using the Properties view.
- Change the font and color of the Finance theme using the CSS Designer. You can open CSS Designer from the Edit Style menu.
- Add a logo image to the Finance theme in the top-left corner using Page Designer. You can open Page Designer from the Edit Theme menu.
- Add a new label as a child of the Call Center label, and change the title.
- Add a new page as a child of the Call Center label, and change the title.
