                 Key: GTNPORTAL-1752
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GTNPORTAL-1752
             Project: GateIn Portal
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
            Reporter: Gary Hu


The default site classic includes the following:
  <portlet-application>
      <portlet>
        <application-ref>web</application-ref>
        <portlet-ref>BannerPortlet</portlet-ref>
        <preferences>
          <preference>
            <name>template</name>
            <value>par:/groovy/groovy/webui/component/UIBannerPortlet.gtmpl</value>
            <read-only>false</read-only>
          </preference>
        </preferences>
      </portlet>
      <access-permissions>Everyone</access-permissions>
	    <show-info-bar>false</show-info-bar>
  </portlet-application>
  <portlet-application>
      <portlet>
        <application-ref>web</application-ref>
        <portlet-ref>BreadcumbsPortlet</portlet-ref>        
      </portlet>
      <access-permissions>Everyone</access-permissions>
	    <show-info-bar>false</show-info-bar>
 </portlet-application>

Please note that the BannerPortlet contains "preferences" property but the BreadcumbsPortlet doesn't.

To reproduce the issue,
 1)  log on the EPP 5 as root. 
 2) go to the classic site
 3) under the "Site Editor"  click "Edit Layout". 
 4) click the "Edit Portlet" icon on Banner Portlet, it shows a tab "Preferences". If clicking the "Edit Portlet" icon on Breadcumbs Portlet, it doesn't show the "Preferences" tab.   

If you modify the portal.xml to add the "preferences" element it won't take effect until the database is cleaned up and the server is restarted.
    <portlet-application>
      <portlet>
        <application-ref>web</application-ref>
        <portlet-ref>BreadcumbsPortlet</portlet-ref>      
        <preferences>
            <preference>
               <name>template</name>
              <value>system:/groovy/webui/core/UIBreadcumbs.gtmpl</value>
              <read-only>false</read-only>
            </preference>
        </preferences>   
      </portlet>
      <access-permissions>Everyone</access-permissions>
	    <show-info-bar>false</show-info-bar>
 </portlet-application>
