Adding a Multi-Select Portal Page Click Action

To add a Portal Page click action to a portlet, you must enter the page ID of the target portal page or a $(ROW_DATA) macro as the Page Setting, Page ID option. If the page ID is set to a macro that is not found or the macro evaluates to an empty string, the click action will not be available on the portlet.

To add a Multi-Select Portal Page click action to a portlet:

  1. Open the Edit <Portlet type> Portlet Closeddialog box.

  2. Click Click Actions.

  5. If you want something other than Portal Page to display in the click action context menu, and click action trigger button, enter a name in the Label box.

  6. Enter the target Page ID.

  7. If you want the target page to display in a pop-up window, select Show as a pop-up and optionally, specify the size of the pop-up window in the format width x height. The default value uses the Default pop-up size setting specified in the target page Page Settings Closeddialog box. Setting a size here overrides the page setting. For consistency, you can use macros.

  8. If you are adding the click action to a measures portlet, and you want to add a Closedselection check box to each row, select Add a checkbox column for selection.

  10. Click OK to close the Edit Click Action dialog box.

    The new Portal Page click action is added to in the Click Actions Closed list.

  12. Click OK to close the Click Actions dialog box.

  13. Click OK to close the Edit Portlet dialog box.

  14. On the toolbar, click Save to exit edit mode and lock the page.
