It will be nice if there is a feature in the management portlet that can force the portal to re-read all the portlet configurations. Right now if there is a new deployment, I have to configure all the changes manually even though the configuration files have the correct information. I have to do it again for every environment (test, stage, production). We have 5 pages, and each has 4-9 portlets. It can be a lot of work and is prone to human errors. If I want the portal to read the configurations, I have to deploy the portal/portlets with <if-exists>overwrite</if-exists>, then deploy it again with <if-exists>keep</if-exists>. This is not worth the effort to do so. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3963847#...
