Enable Customer Portal User Button

Hi all,

 

I am having some issues when attempting to create a user for the customer portal. I am running on a sandbox org and have created the portal. I have added the Enable Customer Portal User button to the contact page layout but when I view a Contact this button does not appear. I am logged in as an administrator. I had a similar problem with the "Allow Customer Portal Self-Registration" field but after changing the field level security settings I could see the field. Does anyone have an clues as to why the button would not appear on the page layout?

 

Thanks

Hi all,

 

I have found the solution to this problem, for the button to appear the Contact must have a parent account - if it does not the button doesn't appear

 

Hope this helps anyone else having this problem

 

Thanks

I am trying to make customer portal but I am stuck on my way :(. I selected Customer Portal and created a new portal having name as "My Customer Portal" after that I explore the option and found some options under "Look and Feel section" when I hit search icon infront of header text box that shows me a popup which is total empty and there is an option for search. I am not getting the exact place where should I define that header so that it can be list down in that popup whcih allow me to select and set in Header text box. I did 2 things.

 

1: I uploaded my logo in static folder and some css.

2: I created a component having some HTML.

 

But again these two things are not listing in header findings.

 

Please anyone help me in this situation. Where should I define some HTML so That it will show in header and footer search dialoge for selection and also logo???

 

Please help me I am thanking you in advance.
