andrei harhots 15 Years Ago Hi, RayWhat are differences between Announcements and Alerts portlets?(Except red frame around Alerts)Thanx. Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel Ray Augé andrei harhots 15 Years Ago The idea is that "Alerts" is hidden by default. Suppose if you placed it on User pages, later when you have an urgent message to display to some scope of users, you create an alert, and the portlet appears on their page (when they didn't even know it was there).In this scenario, you also can take away the ability to remove it... so that they don't just get ride of it (do this by adding it using one of the static techniques: layout-templates, layout config).About the style... it's really designed to be taken by a portal admin and make it look how ever you wish... The css is designed to be pretty friendly to suite. As well, each "type" of Alert can be styled to whatever purpose it might server.- A "new feature" alert might be something eye catching and all hip "look at this new toy". - A "warning" alert might be "Hey, you owe us money, pay your bill or we'll cancel your account."Announcements are more of the day-to-day type of things, where a user can view the history of the Announcements they received (no history view for Alerts). Also, Announcements is more the type of portlet that a User "might" be free to remove form their page.HTH! Please sign in to reply. Reply as...

Reply as... Cancel Ray Augé Ibrahim Bakhit 13 Years Ago Hmm, yeah. I've received similar requests before, but haven't yet had time to work on them. Is there a ticket in the Community Backlog on JIRA? That's where we would start.There may be a few quick hacks you could make to get it working with WCM, but it's kind of quirky. Basically replace the title and content fields with the groupId and articleId values of a selected article (you'd have to copy the code for one of the article selectors we have in the portal, i.e. in asset publisher) and then on render use the JournalContentUtil to render the article using the groupId and articleId values stored in the title and content fields.

Ray Augé Ibrahim Bakhit 13 Years Ago Hmm, yeah. I've received similar requests before, but haven't yet had time to work on them. Is there a ticket in the Community Backlog on JIRA? That's where we would start.There may be a few quick hacks you could make to get it working with WCM, but it's kind of quirky. Basically replace the title and content fields with the groupId and articleId values of a selected article (you'd have to copy the code for one of the article selectors we have in the portal, i.e. in asset publisher) and then on render use the JournalContentUtil to render the article using the groupId and articleId values stored in the title and content fields. Note you'd also have to alter the Message listener that sends out messages via Email and SMS to do the same.Hack-ish, but may do what you want in the short term. Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel Ibrahim Bakhit Ray Augé 13 Years Ago Thanks Ray, this is good enough for my purposes. It is an admin side work and not client facing, so it is not as bad.

Then logged in as the user and waited until that time, but the Alert never came. Nothing is shown where the portlet was placed. Is that setup how's it supposed to work? I refreshed as well and still did not see it. I made the scope be the entire organization and logged in as a user in that organization. Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel

Tim Scholten 14 Years Ago Broadcast Control Question:I am looking enable all users of a particular community to have the permissions to make announcements. This works if I grant them "Add Entry" & "community owner " permissions... however having all users with the "community owner" role enables too much and is not desirable. So the crux of my question is, is it possible to give all members of the community permissions required for broadcasting Announcements to the community scope? I am just beginning to understand how Liferay handles permissions but, I am wondering if there is away that only the Announcements portlet is enabled for these users with the Community Owner role (or functional equivalent) and not the entire portal page.Tim Please sign in to reply.
