Masthead Customization in NW 7.31
1) Download com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead.war or com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead.tar from Location:
C:\usr\sap\<SID>\<Instance>\j2ee\cluster\apps\sap.com
2) Import the war file com.sap.portal.navigation.masthead.war to nwds. If you are having .tar file ,you can locate war file inside the .tar
3) Rename the imported war file to com.sap.portal.navigation.newmasthead. So that you can easily locate the custom masthead war file you have changed.
4) Delete the value com.sap.portal.pcm.admin.isTechnical=true from portalapp.xml in WebContent/WEB-INF. So that it will list in portal application in content administration for creating masthead iview.
5) Do required change in HeaderiView.jsp or light_HeaderiView.jsp accordingly
6) After completing the development export the com.sap.portal.navigation.newmasthead as war file.
7) Open deployment perspective in NWDS and import the exported war file and start deployment
8) You can locate the deployed custom masthead in content administration/portal content management/portal application
Copy and paste the iview in to portal content to create masthead iview. Then you can add the new masthead iview into framework page.

This is a very useful blog. Thanks for sharing Rakesh!
Hi,
Nice and helpful blog.
I had tried working on the masthead and getting missing jar.
Have you added external jars after importing the war file?
Thanks,
Twisha
HI Tisha,
Try to deploy and preview the war file after modification.If it is working then no need to consider NWDS errors. In my case it was working with out extra jar files.
