Liferay 6 Gear Icon To Refresh Won't Go Away - liferay

Does anyone know how to get rid of the gear icon in Liferay 6? It's only showing up in one place on my site and it just says refresh when you click on it. I'm used to seeing this on the Admin Console to configure the portlet but I've never seen it on the actual site (when you're not in the Admin Console).

This action is active when in liferay-portlet.xml you set <render-weight> to 0 and <ajaxable> true. This is useful when you have ajax content in that portlet.

How do I get a menu on the left hand side of my SharePoint page?

I have created a SharePoint site using Office 365 and I am trying to get the menu to show down the left hand side as currently it is along the top of the page. The site layout is set to Seattle but the menu does not show. Some of the articles I've read talk about clicking on Navigation link in site settings but I cannot see this link. Not sure if there is something I need to enable.
How can I get this to show?
Site Settings
Left Hand Side of Page
Thanks
You could enable publishing feature, you'll see the setting.

Can't add webpart to SharePoint page

On my sharepoint site I am unable to add an existing basic webpart to a page where I've added webparts before. I am a site owner. I am using IE 8. I also work remotely using VPN.
The strange thing is IE won't even open up the EDIT MODE.
When I use Google Chrome, it is able to open up EDIT MODE, and it was also able to open up the Add Web Part popup, but when you actually select a web part and press ADD...nothing gets added to the main page.
The extra strange thing is from Google Chrome, I am able to delete and modify existing webparts.
I've upgraded to IE 9 and the same issue still happens.
i assume the similar issue you would be facing with firefox it seems your css is not compliant with IE8 try using ie8 in campatibility mode or use following querystring parameter at end of ur url
toolpaneview=2 and see what is the result
I had that problem and it appeared that a CSS file was messing up with the Ribbon controls.
Try to disable a CSS file at a time.
Regards,
Pedro
We had this issue (or at least a very similar one) where, in edit page mode, clicking on 'Add a Web Part' had no effect. I was assuming that it is a JavaScript issue. In, I beleive, the same day, it effected both my Production and DEV Site Collections, in IE8, Firefox and Chrome. We restarted all of our servers and ran the config wizard. No good.
We were able to create new pages which seem to be uneffected.
For an existing page, our workaround is to edit the properties of the page, then, down at the bottom, select 'Open Page in Maintenance View'. Select one of the Web Parts and Close it. Note: It seems as though if you unselected the 'Allow Close' checkbox, it wont be on this list. Then click on the 'Go Back to Web Part Page'. Click on the zone where the closed Web Part was. You may now be able to 'Add a Web Part'. If so, the last Web Part folder on the left will be 'Closed Web Parts' which I beleive you can put back (Open) the closed Web Part.
I have see this issue occur when someone else has the current page open in edit mode. Until that person either checks in or undoes there checkout you will not be able to edit the page.

show administration theme when editing page in drupal

I am using a custom theme for the front end of my drupal website.I created it by modifying garland theme.And I am using garland as the admin theme.
When I try to edit a page from admin it shows the edit page with my custom theme (http://example.com/node/2/edit?destination=admin%2Fcontent%2Fnode). And It breaks up the layout.
I want to show the admin theme for all the admin tasks. This problem also occurs on the blocks page (http://example.com/admin/build/block).
Is there any custom module or core hack to show admin theme when editing pages.
If you want to use admin theme by non-admin users you must give permissions to that user: Permitions->System->View the administration theme
Be sure that you check the option in the page example.com/admin/settings/admin
To get the admin theme showing for non-admin users, I went to admin/people/permissions/list and checked the "View the administration theme" box for all roles.
Sounds simple except that the Filter list wasn't showing that entry when I typed theme, so it took me awhile to find it. Finally I used the browser find to find all instances of the word "theme".
Or, you could type "System" in the Filter list to show only a few options in the relevant category.
You can use admin theme module, download and install it , the go to permission in dmin/people/permissions then in Administration theme set permission to waht user you want by checking Access administration theme.
Then goto http://chapboo.com/admin/appearance in bottom of the page in custom page add
admin/*
node/add/*
node/*/edit
and finally clear the cache
You have to check the checkbox under:
exemple.com/admin/appearance

How to get Site Icon to properly update in Sharepoint 2010 Web Part Page

I'm working on creating a reusable and extensible web application in SharePoint 2010. I've created a master page to apply across all pages in the site. However, whenever I create a web part page and navigate to it, the site icon does not display. Instead of my custom site icon being displayed it shows the default SharePoint icon. I can get around this by placing the icon directly into the master page, but that would require me to create a new master page if I ever wanted to extend this web application.
Does anyone know why this is happening? My initial thought was that the web part page had somehow been customized to not use the default master page, but that does not seem to be the case: if I update the master page it is reflected in the web part page.
Googling around and checking this site yielded little answers. I only found one post out there that reported the same issue I am observing but there was no solution.
If it helps, I did notice one phenomena when navigating to this page. Before the page completely loads, the correct site icon appears for a split second before being replaced with the default site icon. Hope that helps.
I ran into the same issue this morning and didn't want to create a custom master page just for this, but luckily it was quickly resolved by following admlcrunch's suggestion (on SharePoint 2010):
Go to the desire page
Click on the "Page" tab at the top
Click on the "Title Bar Properties" at the right (in the ribbon)
In the Image Link section on the right, paste in the image URL
Click OK
The only bad thing about this is, you have to update every Web Part page that you want custom icon image to display.
I was just having the same issue. Web Part Pages have their own icon that you can set.
To set the icon click Page > Title Bar Properties. This will open the Web Part Page Title Bar dialog. In this dialog there is an area to set the Image Link. You can set the icon here. I just copied the URL to the site icon.
Open the page in designer and remove the custom titlebar place holder:
[WebPartPages:TitleBarWebPart]
from the :
[asp:Content ContentPlaceHolderId="PlaceHolderPageTitleInTitleArea"]

Update panel error in custom page when logging with a user other than the administrator

I made a custom page and added it to a MOSS 2007 site.
the custom page has an update panel and some ajax controls
when I'm logged in as an administrator with full control permissions, the page works fine.
but if another user with even Full control permission logs in and browse the page, an error appears:
The control with ID 'UpdatePanel2' requires a ScriptManager on the page. The ScriptManager must appear before any controls that need it.
where UpdatePanel2 id the id of the update panel in the page, and the strange thing is that the master page of the site has a script manager addded to it.
so what can be the reason of this ?
thanks
This is one of the Common Behaviour when you dont approve the changes of the MasterPage after chaning the master page through SharePoint designer. To resolve this problem make sure that you have approved the changes of the MasterPage you did. Usually admin has fullpermission to view the unapproved changes as well, while normal users dont.
