The Forum Topic Details view definition is uses the Forum Topics profile. For more information, read Forums, forum topics, and forum topic replies profiles.
The profiles define the attribute
names that you can use in your [AttributeResource] tags
when you generate the HTML markup for your bean lists. You can either
manually add the AttributeResource tags
to the design component of a social list, or you can use the Insert
a Tag user interface of IBM Web Content
Manager. Example: If a
profile defines an attribute that is named title,
you can write out the title value of the items in your list by using
the following tag: [AttributeResource attributeName="title"].
Note: When you integrate an Connections server
that runs in the Smart Cloud for Social Business, the following item
attributes always return empty string values: authorObjectID, memberObjectID, and modifierObjectID.
The profiles that WebSphere Portal includes are listed in the following topics.
