Installed 8.50 but still have the old look? November 5, 2009
Posted by Tipster in PeopleTools 8.50.trackback
If you install PeopleTools 8.50 with an ‘old’ application (i.e. one that is prior to v9.1) then the UI you’ll see still looks very much like the one we’re used to. What’s happened to all of the new 8.50 ajax-y goodness?
Yes, this is Tools 8.50!
These are the changes you need to make:
Main Menu->PeopleTools->Utilities->Administration->PeopleTools Options:
Style Sheet Name: PSSTYLEDEF_SWAN
Main Menu->PeopleTools->Portal->General Settings:
Navigation Type: Drop-Down
PeopleTools->Portal->Portal Utilities->System Options:
Style Sheet Name: PTSTYLEDEF_SWAN
That’s better!
Thanks to Bauke Gehem for commenting on Nicolas Gasparotto’s blog with the above advice.
When you install a fresh 9.1 environment this is set by default.
You’re welcome!
Yes, having old Peopletools style can puzzled people who upgrade “old” application.
Interestingly, this is not explained into the PeopleTools 8.50 Upgrade Guide : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E16255_01/psft/acrobat/upt850_103009.pdf
