Hello Max, I managed to find the issue. When creating the portlet using "new->jboss portlet" in the UI you can only insert init-param value pairs. I had to include additional entries in the resulting portlet.xml where the portlet-preferences are defined and then the show up in the jboss admin portal. Maybe an option to be added to the tools later on to be able to do it using the ui. Kind regards, Herman View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4202886#...
