Hi,

Is it possible to create sub-subportals (child of child portals) ?
EG:
parent: myhost.com
child: myhost.com/users
sub-child:
  • myhost.com/users/portal1
  • myhost.com/users/portal2
  • myhost.com/users/portal3....

If not, would be this an interesting feature ?

Thanks,
Catalin

why? as long as subportal does not inherit anything from the parent except the URL I see no benefit.

I would like to organize the sub-subportals only in one directory, like in the example above.We intend to have for each teacher (~ 1000) one portal and we would like to organize them in one directory.
Also, this way would be possible to have more than one portal with the same sub-portal name.

In the current version we can create only one sub-portal/child with a given name. A benefit of what I have asked is the possibility to have a portal with a given name in different URL's
- myhost.com/child/ - as a child portal
- myhost.com/child/portal1, myhost.com/child/portal2....

and also
- myhost.com/child2/ - as a child portal
- myhost.com/child2/portal1, myhost.com/child2/portal2....  - the same names as in portal1

Wouldn't offer this more configuration possibilities ?

Thanks,
Catalin

Catalin,

I don't understand, what you try to achieve. Please be aware:

  • childportals are "virtual", they consist only of a folder with a parametered redirection to /default.aspx
  • childportals do not inherit anything from parent portals except the url
  • files of childportals are places inside /portals/<portalID> folder without any access from one to another

I suggest to use a single portal and in order to create individual home pages for each member use SmartThinker HomePage module or sth. comparable.

I suggest, use the normal method for creating the child portals (or use the custom modules) and also create a folder at the root let say

/MyPortals

and then create subfolder for each sub-sub child portal

/MyPortals/sub-sub-child1

/MyPortals/sub-sub-child2

/MyPortals/sub-sub-child.....

in this /MyPortals/sub-sub-child1 folder, just put the redirection url, so that it gets redirected to the right sub-sub-childportal

You may get such custom modules made, which will do all this in one go, transperently
