Identifying a portlet rendering in a portlet include control

Hi all,

Is it possible to identify that a particular page is rendering via a “portlet include” control ? Or Is it possible to set a flag value when a portlet is rendering inside a “portlet include” control and can clear the same when we render the original portlet as it is not in “portlet include”?

Can we achieve this without getting the current url?

thanks

I think you are asking two questions.

#1 Is it possible to include a whole page in the PortletInclude Control?
[mark] No, that isn’t supported

#2 Is it possible to ‘signal’ the portlet that it is currently being “included”?
[mark] Yes, i would pass that as a parameter in the PortletInclude Control and expose a preference on the Included Portlet. That way, the included portlet can understand whether or not it is currently being included.

I want to pass the value to inner portlet which is an object.

But I guess portlet preference does not accept object.

Any alternative…?
