Project Description
SimplePortlet is a product that lets the user create his own portlets in Plone. It adds three content types called Portlet, Smart Folder Portlet and RSS Portlet. Adding these objects to a folder will display it as a portlet in either the left or right column (and optionally in subfolders).
A (normal) portlet has a rich text field to define what will be displayed in the portlet.
Additionally, the Smart Folder portlet type lets you pick an existing Smart Folder and will add its results in the portlet tool . The RSS Portlet allows you to pick a CMFSin channel (when installed).
SimplePortlet also includes a new action (tab on each folder) that allows you to control which portlets (including non-SimplePortlet portlets) are shown and in what order.
