I’m currently working on some tools to upload portal elements and have been struggling with uploaded Homepage Configuration items – they upload, but they don’t display.
Turns out that the IsConfigurationType flag needs to be set otherwise the Homepage item doesn’t display – simple when you know… (as usual)
Note – IsConfigurationType doesn’t appear on the standard RCDC, you need to go into advanced view to be able to see / update it (doesn’t really help if you’re troubleshooting and can’t see an obvious difference between one Homepage item that displays and another that doesn’t!)
Note – looks like there’s similar behaviour on Navigation Bar Items as well – at least it’s consistent!
