Hi Steve:

Since I saw this in sakai.properties (line 87), I thought that was where to set it:

# Tab display.  The number of tabs to display before adding the "More" dropdown list.
# Default=4
#gatewaySiteListDisplayCount=4

I think I figured out how to make it work, I've tested a lot, but not really sure if this will break something else, what do you think?:

In this file, I changed the code from this:
(starting on line 110):
if (!loggedIn)
{
            tabsToDisplay = serverConfigurationService.getInt(
                        "gatewaySiteListDisplayCount", tabsToDisplay);
}
else
{
            Preferences prefs = preferencesService
                                    .getPreferences(session.getUserId());
            ResourceProperties props = prefs.getProperties("sakai:portal:sitenav");
            try
            {
                        tabsToDisplay = (int) props.getLongProperty("tabs");
            }
            catch (Exception any)
            {
            }
}

To this (I removed the else clause):

if (loggedIn)
{
            tabsToDisplay = serverConfigurationService.getInt(
                        "gatewaySiteListDisplayCount", tabsToDisplay);
}

Hi Kim

What are you trying to achieve here? That property is for something else (the number of gateway sites) but it sounds like you want to limit the number of site tabs once a user is logged in?

Cheers
Steve

We are implementing a neo skin in Sakai CLE 2.9.3

We have discovered the gatewaySiteListDisplayCount in sakai.properties is not working.

We want to limit our users from adding too many site tabs

I have searched through the Jira and Confluence sites and the closest issue I found is this, but it appears out of date.

Does anyone know if there is a fix or patch available to make this work?

Sakai Workgroup problems: gatewaySiteListDisplayCount & site title display
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-10938

and maybe this is relevant:

Sakai default config is missing a huge number of config options
https://jira.sakaiproject.org/browse/SAK-21124

I also found these issue that other users apparently submitted to this email list in July:

Thanks!
