Liferay Dynamic Site Map Portlet

Here is my second liferay portlet. I modified the usual site map portlet to work like a  dynamic site explorer (see the screen shot).

you can download the required files here.

Download Dynamic Site Map Portlet[site_map.zip ]

to modify your current site map portlet, extract these files and overwrite over webapps\ROOT\html\portlet\site_map directory.

If you want to create a new portlet, follow these steps.

1. rename the extracted folder to sitemap_1

2. create a folder under webapps\ROOT\html\portlet\ named ext

3. copy sitemap_1 folder to ext folder

4. copy the following code to webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\portlet-ext.xml

<portlet>
<portlet-name>sitemap_1</portlet-name>
 <display-name>Site Map 1</display-name>
<portlet-class>com.liferay.util.bridges.jsp.JSPPortlet</portlet-class>
 <init-param>
 <name>view-jsp</name>
 <value>/html/portlet/ext/sitemap_1/view.jsp</value>
 </init-param>
 <expiration-cache>0</expiration-cache>
 <supports>
 <mime-type>text/html</mime-type>
 </supports>
 <resource-bundle>com.liferay.portlet.StrutsResourceBundle</resource-bundle>
 <security-role-ref>
 <role-name>guest</role-name>
 </security-role-ref>
 <security-role-ref>
 <role-name>power-user</role-name>
 </security-role-ref>
 <security-role-ref>
 <role-name>user</role-name>
 </security-role-ref>
 </portlet>

5. copy the following code to webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\liferay-portlet-ext.xml

<portlet>
<portlet-name>sitemap_1</portlet-name>
 <configuration-action-class>com.liferay.portlet.sitemap.action.ConfigurationActionImpl</configuration-action-class>
<portlet-data-handler-class>com.liferay.portlet.sitemap.lar.SitemapPortletDataHandlerImpl</portlet-data-handler-class>

 <css-class-wrapper>portlet-site-map</css-class-wrapper>
 <add-default-resource>true</add-default-resource>
 </portlet>

6.  make an entry in webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\liferay-display.xml under <category> as follows

<category name="category.cms">
.
