As a user selecting parent organization I will see available organizations in dialog window

• Type: Story

• Component/s: Collaboration, Collaboration > Blogs, User Management
• Labels: None
• Epic/Theme:
  • Quick_Win
• Where was the bug?:
  JSP, Javascript

Who will benefit: organization administrator user
What is benefit: dialog windows have better UX and are easier to manage from parent window than popup windows

Edit organization view in Users and Organizations, Configuration views in Recent Blogers and Blogs Agregator provide Administrator User with ability to select parent organization via POPUP window. Since we can't position POPUP or make it look as part of parent page it would be good to implement it as Dialog.

Affected sources:

portal-web/docroot/html/portlet/blogs_aggregator/configuration.jsp
portal-web/docroot/html/portlet/recent_bloggers/configuration.jsp
portal-web/docroot/html/portlet/users_admin/organization/details.jsp

I asked Iliyan about this:

Hi Iliyan,
when editing an organization, user selects parent organization by clicking Select link:

/html/portlet/users_admin/organization/details.jsp

implements

function <portlet:namespace />openOrganizationSelector() {
		var url = '<portlet:renderURL windowState="<%= LiferayWindowState.POP_UP.toString() %>"><portlet:param name="struts_action" value="/users_admin/select_organization" /></portlet:renderURL>';

I wonder do you think it could be good to create improvement ticket to convert IFrame to Dialog. I'm fixing http://issues.liferay.com/browse/LPS-30448 and maybe I can do it since I'm familiar with that code now?

Answer:

Sure - as less iframes we have, as better.

Thanks,
Iliyan

Iliyan please review my work.

Hi Iliyan here is https://github.com/ipeychev/liferay-portal/pull/113

Also this is the 1st way to test:

• go to Control Panel/User and Organizations
• create 3 organizations: org1, org2 and org3
• from Action menu for org1 choose Edit
• scroll to the bottom to parent organization selection
• click link Select
• when dialog is loaded try to click link Advanced - nothing will happen, you wont be able to toggle advanced basic search

2nd way to test

• add one of Blog Agregator or Recent Bloggers portlets
• go to portlet configuration
• in Organization definition, click select
• when dialog is loaded try to click link Advanced - nothing will happen, you wont be able to toggle advanced basic search

Iliyan, thanks for help, please feel free to contact me for any additional info you need.
