Applying Adaptive Page Layouts
For each experience definition you can specify whether
to use adaptive page layouts to display the user interface or use
a legacy user interface used in previous versions of the portal.
The tasks described below assume that adaptive page layouts
have not been disabled in the portal configuration file and that you
have already created the adaptive page layouts as described in the
Adaptive Page Layouts section of the
AquaLogic User Interaction Development Guide.
Before you
apply adaptive page layouts to an experience definition, you must
create remote portlet web services for the adaptive page layouts.
To apply adaptive page layouts you must have at least Select access
to the remote portlet web services for the adaptive page layouts.
- If the
Experience Definition Editor is not already open, open it now.
- Click the Adaptive Page Layout Settings page.
- Under Adaptive Page Layout Mode,
specify if this experience definition should display adaptive page
layouts.
To enable adaptive page layouts for this experience definition,
select Enable Adaptive Page Layout Mode.
Note:
- This setting is not available if adaptive layouts are disabled
in the portal configuration files.
- This setting controls only adaptive page layouts, not adaptive
portlet layouts, which are controlled by the page layouts selected
for My Pages and community pages.
- If you disable adaptive page layouts, this experience definition
will display a legacy user interface used in previous versions of
the portal.
