Configuring and wiring the Tags portlet

When you install the portlets, using the PAA solutions installer, the portlets are wired by default. This topic describes how to wire a portlet, using the Tags portlet, to demonstrate how to manually wire and configure portlets to work in concert with other portlets in an IBM® WebSphere® Portal application.

Attention: When you deploy the Tags portlet, note that if you are also deploying a Bookmarks portlet there is a difference in how tags display. The Bookmarks portlet by default returns active tags for the last 30 days. If this does not match what displays in the Tags portlet, you can change the configuration settings for Bookmarks. For example, you can increase the setting from 30 days to 180 days to display more tags. For information about changing the Bookmarks configuration, follow the steps in the topic Changing view and link thresholds and change the value of the sinceWhen.activeTags.

Follow these steps to configure and wire the IBM Connections Tags portlet.
