Caveats

News/Events Portlets

If you add news/events portlets, be sure you add a collection portlet and load in the correct collection within your section of the site. Unfortunately, due to Plone’s inability to set apart events collections from other collections criteria, events collections don’t show the start date, but the creation/last updated date. So for those, hide the dates and put the date information in the title of your events.
