Removing wires

You can remove wires between portlets on a portal page, even if the portlet project(s) that contain the source and target portlets are not in your workspace.
Note: Be careful when removing wires from portlets whose portlet projects do not exist in the workspace, because you cannot re-add those wires if the portlet projects are not in the workspace.
To remove wires from a portal page, follow these steps:
  1. Open the portal project's Portal Configuration file.
  2. Ensure the page that contains the wires is selected in the Portal Configuration.
  3. Open the Properties view and select the Wires tab. The Wires page in the Properties view shows any existing wires in the page.
  4. Select the wire that you want to remove from the Wires table, and click Remove. The entry is removed from the table.
  5. Save the Portal Configuration.
Deploy or export the portal project to a portal server to verify the wiring behavior. (You can also run the portal in the WebSphere® Portal v5.1 test environment to perform preliminary testing.)
Note: If you remove the page, portlet, or row or column that contains the portlet from the Portal Configuration, any associated wires will also be removed from the portal project. You will not receive a warning message. However, if you undo the deletion, the wire will be restored.
