Description

One of the main features we are keen on is to have a sort of intra-portlet communication. Example:

We want a page having a portlet which contains a navigation bar; when the user clicks on a link on the navigation, we would like another portlet to display the results of the action invoked by the link on the navigation bar.

Regards,

Marco Tedone

Yes, i think this is very useful. So not everytime we have to use the "group pages" for navigation.

I think with the implementation of this, it will increase the ease of use for user when navigating around the portal. Given many website design, most of them have navigation menu rather than "group pages navigation".

Also navigation menu also act like sitemap for people to have a general overview of everything in the website. Whereas, liferay's "group pages navigation" does not show because the portlets are hidden within the page.

This is very very useful. There are many people requesting for this type of tutorials or articles. However, there is no such clear easy article.

Could you please consider this.

Best regards,

Arthur.

See how the Mail portlet communicates with the Address Book portlet from the default portlets to see how to do inter portlet communication in Liferay. More documentation will follow.
