Hi,

 VCM version of 8.1 SP1+Cumulative and use only appconsole.

We have requirement to  overide the presentation of text area cce widget and tried to get widget object in override jsp using code WCMTextAreaWidget wcmTextAreaWidget = (WCMTextAreaWidget) WidgetUtils.getWidgetFromRequest(request).

(Ref:/vgn-wcm-up/secure/widgets/wcmtextarea/wcmtextareawidget.jsp)

This wcmTextAreaWidget  is coming as null and throwing the below error when we open a content item of CTD having override jsp.

Please help us in resolving the issue.

    It is typically easier to customize the look and feel of a widget by providing a custom xsl.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply.

    Can the xsl be a ctd specific because we want the customization to be applied only for few CTD 's and not all.

    You can specify a custom XSLT in the widget config in the ctd, so you can define it only for the ctd/widgets you want.
