Full portal page demo

[Tom Ray]

Does anyone have a full portal page demo with adding content from a catalog, customizable dock layouts, and database save allowing each user to create their own dashboard?

Thanks

Hi Tom,

We have two sample projects that save the DockState in a DB, in our Code Library. You can use them to achieve your specific scenario. They are based on the MyPortal online demo. Here are the links to the sample demos:

Sincerely yours,

Question regarding these demos...

I have successfully implemented a portal system saving the docks and their layout in a database. I have split the implementation into two parts though...a portal configuration page which allows the user to add docks and move them around in different dock zones and a home page which displays the configured docks.

What I'd like to do on the home page is to only allow the docks to be displayed as they were configured on the configuration page and disable the ability to move them among the dock zones on the home page.

Since the docks and the layout are being pulled out of the database, can you tell me how to turn off the ability to move them around on the home page when they load? Thanks

Hi Philip,

You should use the RadDock's EnableDrag property. The following demo shows this behavior: http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/dock/examples/default/defaultcs.aspx.
