Add a portlet

Of course, if an existing actions category doesn't fit what you need, you may add your own actions category in the portal_actions tool and add actions in it. Action titles may be translated if you provide an i18n domain.

You may add an icon directly in the action definition, as a TAL expression that provides the icon object. e.g. portal/book_icon.gif.

You may associate an icon to each action using the portal_actionicons tool too if you prefer the old way.

When done, add an 'Actions portlet' anywhere you want. Give a title and select the appropriate actions category.

If you choose to show action icons, you may change the default icon for actions that have no icon from their own or through the portal_actionicons tool. The value for the default icon is evaluated from the context when publishing the portlet.

You're done.
