Migration: Update the theme to use simple context menus

The theme context menu framework provided with the module wp_theme_menus in IBM WebSphere Portal 8.0 and earlier is relabeled and improved in WebSphere Portal 8.5. The new Simple Menu Framework is compatible with all previous versions of the wp_theme_menus. To use the WebSphere Portal simple context menus, complete the following steps on the migrated theme.

  1. Update the existing module wp_theme_menus in...

      WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/contributions/theme.json

    ...and replace it with...

    {
      "id":"wp_themes_menus", "prereqs":[{
      "id":"wp_simple_contextmenu_main"
    }]
    }

  2. Copy the following artifacts from the Portal 8.5 theme to the migrated theme in the same directory:

    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/contributions/simple_contextmenu.json
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/wp_simple_contextmenu.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/wp_simple_contextmenu.css.uncompressed.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/wp_simple_contextmenuRTL.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/wp_simple_contextmenuRTL.css.uncompressed.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/default/contextmenu.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/default/contextmenu.css.uncompressed.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/default/contextmenuCommon.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/default/contextmenuCommon.css.uncompressed.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/default/contextmenuRTL.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/css/default/contextmenuRTL.css.uncompressed.css
    • WebDAV/themes/Portal 8.5/menuDefinitions/templates/simpleMenuTemplate.html

  3. Invalidate the theme cache.

    We invalidate the cache so the profile and module changes are picked up by the Portal server.
