About responsive UI layouts
In the Portal Manager, there may be several versions of the same layout. This is how our responsive UI was initially developed, so portals could be viewed on multiple devices. For example, these are available versions of the MasterTopHeader_MenuBar layout in the portals:
- MasterTopHeader_MenuBar: This is the original layout, for portal pages that were not set up for responsive UI.
- MasterTopHeader_MenuBar320: This is a responsive layout, for viewing portal pages in a narrow viewport.
- MasterTopHeader_MenuBar700: This is a responsive layout, for viewing portal pages in a wider viewport.
- MasterTopHeader_MenuBarGlobal: This is a responsive common layout with server script for 320 and 700 versions.
When you modify a layout for the Customer or Reseller portals, you must change the 320 and 700 versions in order to maintain the current responsive UI functionality.
All Vendor Portal pages and some Infor Service Management Service Portal pages are not yet responsive. For these pages, you need to change only the original layout.
Note: With the introduction of the card sequence
feature in IPF, only one layout is needed for a responsive UI. Responsive pages in the
Infor Service Management Service Portal use this feature. This
is the preferred method for new development. For more information, see "Card sequence"
in the portal customization guide.
