As an Admin I'll likely want to retrieve the list with counts in two cases:
* To satisfy an on-demand query: "What are the portlet names and counts right now for the last week or month?" * To retrieve and archive statistics: "What were the portlet names and counts for February?" As a non-Admin, I'd likely want to retrieve the list in one case, and having the counts show is okay: * To satisfy an on-demand query: "What are the portlet names (counts okay too) right now for the last week or month?" I'm not sure what options you have with subflows of the portlet-manager. I suspect a single portlet would cover both Admins and non-Admins, even if I had to list the portlet twice with a different portlet preference/parameter to turn on/off features. A question I have about the portlet picture attached. It uses paging. How would I get a complete list in one view to archive the list? Would it be an Admin feature to get a CSV file, or something? Cut/Paste would work for me, assuming everything was in one place to snag it. Would the focused view be a complete list?
