[15:50:30 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> for some reason, its displaying in the normal view
[15:52:37 CDT(-0500)] <athena> hm
[15:52:42 CDT(-0500)] <athena> are you getting the mobile view for other stuff?
[15:53:09 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> only for the directory porltet
[15:53:26 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> othewise everything looks like a shrunken portlet
[15:54:08 CDT(-0500)] <athena> do you by chance have custom theme names?
[15:54:09 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> I'm not sure if maybe something in the db data may be causing this. or maybe a config chagne
[15:54:19 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> I think it is DLMXHTML
[15:54:26 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> without the space?
[15:54:41 CDT(-0500)] <athena> do you have the mobile theme configured? and is that theme showing up when you go to the portal from a mobile browser?
[15:54:43 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> oh we do have our custom uofchicago theme
[15:54:56 CDT(-0500)] <athena> the portlets are looking at the theme name
[15:55:01 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> I don't think I have the mobile theme configured
[15:55:10 CDT(-0500)] <athena> ok, you need to do that to use umobile 
[15:55:14 CDT(-0500)] <athena> it's in the default data set
[15:55:19 CDT(-0500)] <athena> but perhaps that didn't get imported?
[15:55:21 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> muniversality?
[15:55:23 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yes
[15:55:25 CDT(-0500)] <athena> exactly
[15:55:38 CDT(-0500)] <athena> then if the user is using the muniversality theme, the protlets will send the mobile views
[15:55:41 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> ok maybe we don't have a theme for that yet. is there a default mobile theme
[15:55:46 CDT(-0500)] <athena> yes
[15:55:52 CDT(-0500)] <athena> muniversality would be it
[15:56:09 CDT(-0500)] <athena> it should be pretty obvious if it's configured - when you go to the main portal page you'd get that blue home screen with icons
[15:56:13 CDT(-0500)] <athena> rather than seeing all the portlets
[15:56:13 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> how does the user enable muniversality?
[15:57:01 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> well i do see the icons for the different portlets when uMObile is turned on, it when I click on the icon, I get the portlet view instead of the mobile view
[15:57:29 CDT(-0500)] <athena> ok
[15:57:36 CDT(-0500)] <athena> that sounds like the theme is enabled
[15:58:12 CDT(-0500)] <athena> so each of the mobile-enabled portlets has some sort of theme resolver
[15:58:20 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> ok
[15:58:25 CDT(-0500)] <athena> some have more than one - you want the version that looks at the theme name
[15:58:39 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> yeah I think the theme resolver for news reader portlet needs to be adjusted.
[15:58:52 CDT(-0500)] <athena> you might set a breakpoint to make sure that implementation is being used, and see if maybe there's a mismatch between the default expected mobile theme name and what you have registered at uchicago
[15:58:58 CDT(-0500)] <athena> it does work out of the box
[15:59:14 CDT(-0500)] <athena> but if you had a custom fname for your theme or something that would require some configuration
[15:59:51 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> ok. maybe our custom theme is getting in the way. so we have a universality->uofchicago theme for the regular browser, do we need a muniversality->uofchicago for the mobile theme?
[16:00:38 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> I don't think we have made any mods to any of the mobile theme code for uPortal.
[16:01:36 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> well anyway. I'll have some more time to work with this tomorrow. thanks for your info athena.
[16:02:26 CDT(-0500)] <athena> sorry, doing a bunch of things
[16:02:42 CDT(-0500)] <athena> you shouldn't need changes if you have the default name, but i'd take a look with a debugger to track down exactly what's going on
[16:03:07 CDT(-0500)] <b-sure> ok. will do. thanks.
