I am looking at a way where i can define\create a new portal instance with CMS, Personalization, Themes & Layouts , authentication all to have modified functionality than what Portal offers by default. Essentially i would need instances of CMS and other Portlets which can be modified for my Portal instance. At the same time i want to retain the default functionality offered by JBoss Portal. i.e. have a means to retain exiting default functionality intact so that it can be used for any other new portal created. I have read topic http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&t=121025 which explains ways to have another object.xml created. Can custom xml be put in the same conf folder in portal.sar . How do i create the customized JBoss portlets and attach them to this. Any help is appreciated. View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4128219#...
