Introduction to the Community Sample

The Community Sample includes a display profile loaded at install time that contains the definitions of containers, channels, and providers used by the sample. The sample relies on the display profile's aggregation methods (see SJS Tech Ref Guide for more information) and the community templates for displaying communities and their contained portlets.

The display profile for the sample is a set of containers which handle basic aggregation and display operations. After installation, directories and files effecting the user interface of the sample portal can be found in the PortalServer-DataDir/portals/portal-ID/desktop/community_sample directory.

The Community Sample relies on a combination of two stylesheets (see Stylesheets for the Community Sample) which define the fonts, colors, and images used for its user interface. There are intentionally no conflicts in the selection of these two stylesheets.
