The criteria you select allows a list of portlets to be processed by the rule you create. The criteria is processed when the rule is executed.
Criteria-based rule processing uses these directives:
The criteria you select are processed as “AND” options.
When you select a catalog or a page, the portal processes all portlets in that catalog or page by the rule.
Selecting options other than catalog or page indicates that only the portlets that match all the selected criteria are processed. For instance, only portlets that have an Approved status are processed.
The role selection takes advantage of the global.properties.xml property “RoleBaseDisplaySeeAllRoles.” In the example, this property is set to “superuser,” which means the example criteria returns all approved portlets created by everyone.
