I would like to create a list and make it portal specific.  I can not locate how to do that other than directly in the database.  Is this possible with the current controls?

Lists table and business objects do support portal specific lists, e.g. used for categories in some bundled modules like feedback, but there is no UI provided for admins to manage lists tables, i.e. the modules need to provide a proper UI itselves.

It is possible to reuse the Lists module GUI at the administrator level. Make a new module definition for the control 'listeditor.ascx' in the /DesktopModules/Admin/Lists directory. Add (and include in menu) this module to a page under the 'Admin' tab. Although all host lists show up in the control, they are all empty. Now log in as host and create a new list with a single dummy entry.This will make the list show up (and keep it showing up) on the admin version of the lists editor. Now login as administrator again and manage the list as you please (the dummy entry will not show up on the admin version). In queries using your administrator level list, make sure to add "AND PortalID = ''" to the WHERE clause of the query to not have the 'Dummy' entry show up.
