These instructions step you through the process to enable the minimize links on portlets.

Step 1. Modify the content.xsl file

Open content.xsl for editing (../uportal-war/src/main/resources/layout/theme/universality/content.xsl)
Uncomment the areas below marked "UNCOMMENT FOR MINIMIZE

...

CONTROL"

...

lang	xml

No Format


<xsl:if test="not(//focused) and @minimized='false'"> <!-- Focus. -->
        <!-- UNCOMMENT FOR MINIMIZE CONTROL
        <a href="{$BASE_ACTION_URL}?uP_root=root&amp;uP_tcattr=minimized&amp;minimized_channelId={@ID}&amp;minimized_{@ID}_value=true&amp;uP_save=all"
           title="{$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_MINIMIZE_LONG_LABEL']}" class="up-portlet-control minimize">
          <span><xsl:value-of select="$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_MINIMIZE_LABEL']"/></span>
        </a>
        -->
        <a href="{$BASE_ACTION_URL}?uP_root={@ID}" title="{$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_MAXIMIZE_LONG_LABEL']}" class="up-portlet-control focus">
          <span><xsl:value-of select="$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_MAXIMIZE_LABEL']"/></span>
        </a>
      </xsl:if>
      <xsl:if test="@minimized='true'"> <!-- Return from Minimized. -->
        <!-- UNCOMMENT FOR UNMINIMIZE CONTROL
        <a href="{$BASE_ACTION_URL}?uP_root=root&amp;uP_tcattr=minimized&amp;minimized_channelId={@ID}&amp;minimized_{@ID}_value=false&amp;uP_save=all"
           title="{$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_RETURN_LONG_LABEL']}" class="up-portlet-control return">
          <span><xsl:value-of select="$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_RETURN_LABEL']"/></span>
        </a>
        -->
      </xsl:if>

The modifications above should now look like the following:

No Format


<xsl:if test="not(//focused) and @minimized='false'"> <!-- Focus. -->
        <a href="{$BASE_ACTION_URL}?uP_root=root&amp;uP_tcattr=minimized&amp;minimized_channelId={@ID}&amp;minimized_{@ID}_value=true&amp;uP_save=all"
           title="{$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_MINIMIZE_LONG_LABEL']}" class="up-portlet-control minimize">
          <span><xsl:value-of select="$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_MINIMIZE_LABEL']"/></span>
        </a>
        <a href="{$BASE_ACTION_URL}?uP_root={@ID}" title="{$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_MAXIMIZE_LONG_LABEL']}" class="up-portlet-control focus">
          <span><xsl:value-of select="$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_MAXIMIZE_LABEL']"/></span>
        </a>
      </xsl:if>
      <xsl:if test="@minimized='true'"> <!-- Return from Minimized. -->
        <a href="{$BASE_ACTION_URL}?uP_root=root&amp;uP_tcattr=minimized&amp;minimized_channelId={@ID}&amp;minimized_{@ID}_value=false&amp;uP_save=all"
           title="{$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_RETURN_LONG_LABEL']}" class="up-portlet-control return">
          <span><xsl:value-of select="$TOKEN[@name='PORTLET_RETURN_LABEL']"/></span>
        </a>
      </xsl:if>

Next, in the same file (content.xsl) find the following code segment (around line #85)

No Format


<!-- ****** START: PORTLET CONTENT ****** -->
<div id="portletContent_{@ID}" class="up-portlet-content-wrapper"> <!-- Portlet content container. -->
     <div class="up-portlet-content-wrapper-inner">  <!-- Inner div for additional presentation/formatting options. -->
            <xsl:copy-of select="."/> <!-- Write in the contents of the portlet. -->
     </div>
</div>

Replace with the following segment:

No Format


<!-- ****** START: PORTLET CONTENT ****** -->
<div id="portletContent_{@ID}" class="up-portlet-content-wrapper"> <!-- Portlet content container. -->
     <div class="up-portlet-content-wrapper-inner">  <!-- Inner div for additional presentation/formatting options. -->
          <xsl:if test="@minimized != 'true'">
              <xsl:copy-of select="."/> <!-- Write in the contents of the portlet. -->
          </xsl:if>
     </div>
</div>

Finally, in the same file (content.xsl) locate another code segment (around line #110 - 113)

No Format


<!-- ****** PORTLET CONTENT ****** -->
<div id="portletContent_{@ID}" class="fl-widget-content fl-fix up-portlet-content-wrapper"> <!-- Portlet content container. -->
     <div class="up-portlet-content-wrapper-inner">  <!-- Inner div for additional presentation/formatting options. -->
         <xsl:copy-of select="."/> <!-- Write in the contents of the portlet. -->
     </div>
</div>

Replace with the following segment:

No Format


<!-- ****** PORTLET CONTENT ****** -->
<div id="portletContent_{@ID}" class="fl-widget-content fl-fix up-portlet-content-wrapper"> <!-- Portlet content container. -->
     <div class="up-portlet-content-wrapper-inner">  <!-- Inner div for additional presentation/formatting options. -->
        <xsl:if test="@minimized != 'true'">
            <xsl:copy-of select="."/> <!-- Write in the contents of the portlet. -->
        </xsl:if>
     </div>
</div>

You will notice above that we are simply adding a test to determine if the portlet is/is not in a minimized state before we write in the contents of the portlet.
