If yes, these updates are what you need. Much useful information for JOSSO 1.8 and 2.2 has been added. Also, this content has been restructured with detailed procedures and illustrations for setting up JOSSO servers (particularly JOSSO 2.2).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/JOSSO-integration-platform.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7613\" src=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/JOSSO-integration-platform.png\" alt=\"JOSSO-integration-platform\" width=\"650\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top: 15px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.exoplatform.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Contextual properties<\/a> \u2013 Accessing navigation parameters<\/h2>\n<p>When developing a portlet, you might need to access contextual portal information, such as page URL, SiteType, SiteName and more. The Contextual Properties feature gives you a way to access this information in a natural and simple way. To make things easy for developers, we have provided tutorials on writing a ContextualPropertyManager plugin that adds a parameter (called <i>current_time<\/i>) and a portlet that gets all the public contextual properties, including yours and the built-in ones.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top: 15px;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.exoplatform.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Content forms<\/a> \u2013 Creating a content form in Sites Explorer<\/h2>\n<p>Have you ever felt confused when creating a content form in eXo Platform? We decided to merge two sections, Content type and Content template, into one single topic. The steps have been updated so that you can easily create your own content form, from the node type to the templates.<\/p>\n<p>With these changes, we hope you will find a handy approach for these technical topics.
