How to restore the iView which is deleted by 'Remove from Page' option

[Former Member]

All,

I know this looks like very silly but really annoying.

One my end users managed to remove the ESS iView from the page by using the 'remove from page' option of page personalization properties ( This option will be there at the small square kinda of box on top of every page).

I have tried to delete the involved ivews and pages in content admin and create a fresh copy. Even I haven't got them ( deleted iViews ) back at all.

I know how to restrict the users not to delete the iviews like this in future by checking the check box 'Fix' in page. But no idea how to get the deleted iView back.

Does any body faced this issue before ? Please help out.

Thanks & Regards,

Seshu.

Hi,

I am also facing the same problem, but i didn't find the object(which was removed in the page). Kindly provide the other way to resolve the issue.

IF it was end user personalization, the iView was not "deleted". It was simply removed from the page. The portal content admin can "add" lots of iViews to a page and have them available to the end user to show/hide as they wish....like in the case where a user builds their own "dashboard". To get the iview back, the user simply goes back into personalization and adds it back to their page. It is nothing you can control on the admin side (short of either making iviews fixed or not allowing personalization at all).

Christopher,

In my case, I have ONLY one iview in the page and that is deleted and not able to find it anywhere..I didn't get point 'To get the iview back, the user simply goes back into personalization and adds it back to their page' - which personalization you are talking about here ? I have tried clicking personalization at places

I think in case of ESS webdynpro iviews it works little bit diffrent as, these pages are again linked to home pages in the back end.

In Employee Search area page - > there is Change Own data appliation. for this page on top right corner ( just beside the tray icon ) one button will be there, I used the option 'remove from page' there. Once I did that the entire page will go blank.

Hope you understand the issue i am facing.

Regards,

Seshu.

Hi Seshu,

After click "Remove from page option" the iview get disappeard,after that select the page tray , this will be available at most right side of the page,options like History,Back,Forward,Try Icon,there we have options personalize

select that personalize,It will displays the layout of the page,at bottom we have Restore Defaults button,click that button,your page is back as normal position as you created in pcd.

Balaji,

Thanks for the reply. Appreciate it.

In my case, once I deleted the iView from page all those page tray icons, and the options like History,Back,Forward,Try Icon,there we have options personalize ALL have been gone. Now I am seeing just COMPLETE blank page.

Are there any other settings that I am missing to get those page tray back?

Thanks & Regards,

Seshu.

Hi,

go to system administration support and portal content directory and then go to Personalization cleanup and if you remove the object there,

you can get it back in page
