CCStd custom portlet

mogoo

I'm having trouble trying to get a custom portlet to show up in CCStd. Titlebar shows up, it just won't populate the portlet. Same goes for the OOTB example of the devnet portlet; can't get it to work. What am I doing wrong?

*Note: the jsp works when I add it as a custom tab in CCPro.
TS 6.5, Solaris, Windows IE 6.0 browser

Added this to portal_custom.xml...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
<portlet id="custom.portlet.quicklinks.title"
label="QuickLinks"
resourceBundle="com.corp.custom.strings"
url="/iw-cc/customer/users.jsp">
<title-bar id="titlebar" type="standard"/>
</portlet>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

users.jsp consists of...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
<iframe name="quick"
id="quick"
src="/iw-cc/customer/user_pages/user.html"
width="100%"
height="620"
border=0
frameborder=0
scrolling="yes"></iframe>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

All looks well to me. I have seen messages that sometimes require you to add a description atttribute for customizations. I would go ahead and throw a description= into the portal_custom.xml file. I assume you have the key custom.portlet.quicklinks.title defined in the com/corp/custom/strings.properties file.

Is this the only thing you have in portal_custom.xml? You will need some surrounding tags as well for this to work. Something to the effect of:

<iwov-portal>
<portal-page id="iw.ccstd.home.portal-page">
<portlet-group id="iw.ccstd.home.column2.portal-group" width="50%">
<portlet id="custom.portlet.quicklinks.title"
label="QuickLinks"
resourceBundle="com.corp.custom.strings"
url="/iw-cc/customer/users.jsp">
<title-bar id="titlebar" type="standard"/>
</portlet>
</portlet-group>
</portal-page>
</iwov-portal>

So it knows what column to put it in, etc.

Also, I am not sure about using a resource bundle to use as the id of an element. I have only seen resource bundle keys used for labels and descriptions but it may work, unless I am mis understanding your id for a resource bundle key. If that is not a key, remove the resource bundle= line.

Let me know how that goes before I start throwing more stuff out.
