Portlets gone wild with ContentWellPortlets 2.0.1

by Rob Porter

This new release adds the ability to add portlets to the footer area. It also has 6 portlet managers per area. This means 20 total portlet managers including the 2 on the sides that ship with plone.

ContentWellPortlets takes the frustration out of making complicated dynamic pages. Instead of making some hand coded page view that you want to use for just certain pages, you can now quickly add portlets in the content area (above and below) and the footer area with just a few clicks. The footer well area was added due to being requested by members of the Penn State family and its popularity on sites like digg, ESPN, The New York Times, to name a few.

Here are some screenshots of Penn State sites that will use it or are already using it:
