Color of the class portal doesn't pass the luminosity contrast test (ratio = 3:1, should be 5:1 for normal text)

new-portalset default layout to theme-zen when a new page is added to a portaldonbFIXED
 theme-selvafix CSSdonb

FIXED (somewhat)

I fixed the basic portal layout and decoration stuff, nothing else.  If someone else cares about selva, please other css issues as you find them

forumsmessage-view expand/collapse should toggle (but it's done in javascript so the page doesn't know what the current state is) or we should just delete the options as we did in 2.3.  Also the print button should disappear - print should be handled by linking the package's print.css file using media="print", with printing then handled by the browse as it is meant to be in this modern era.vguerraThe proposed fix was incomplete (only one cookie value for all threads), feature will be removed from 2.4.  Victor can fix it in HEAD for a future release if he wishes to.
forumsdoesn't work for oracledonbFIXED

breadcrumbs

Usability:

  • breadcrumbs should start from dotLRN root node instead of the main site.
  • dotlrn root node should be labelled as "Home".
  • The portal page name should appear in the breadcrumbs
  • last element of the breadcrumbs should match the title of the page
