Hi all,
I have created a new theme by modifying the Velocity theme at several places.
Now the problem is that I am not able to drag-drop the portlets. The cursor does not change to the draggable one. And attempting to drag the portlet simply selects the title of the portlet.
How do i make the porlet draggable? What did i miss?

Thanks in advance.

The default layout structure on http://www.liferay.com/community/wiki/-/wiki/Main/Layout+Template will not permit drag/drop of portlets. To enable drag/drop on custom layouts, you must have a <div id="main-content" role="main"> surrounding the layout itself.

Hi,
I am also facing the same problems with the layout,some of the portlets are not allowed to drag/drop in the page layout which i selected..instead the portlets are aligned in the same line one after other..

<div id="main-content" role="main"> this tag is already present in the layout.tpl

Any solutions..

Thanks in advance..

IMHO Drag&Drop is dependent on some (I don't know exactly which) css classes. As you just say that you "changed your templates" I guess that you might have removed the important classes. Compare your templates with the original ones and try to mimic what you see there.

Also - just to be sure - make sure that you don't have staging activated and are trying to drag/drop in production (this won't work by design)
