Done it like this (in a grid, but that's basically the same): implemented our own GridCell (copy-pasted all of AbstractPropertyEditor and original GridCell for visibility reasons), but changed these two methods: Object beginRender(MarkupWriter writer) {
Object before = renderPropertyValue(writer, getPropertyModel().getId() + "BeforeCell", false); Object main = renderPropertyValue(writer, getPropertyModel().getId() + "Cell", true); Object after = renderPropertyValue(writer, getPropertyModel().getId() + "AfterCell", false); if (main instanceof BlockImpl) { BlockImpl bi = (BlockImpl) main; BlockImpl result = new BlockImpl(bi.getLocation(), "multiblock"); if (before != null && before instanceof BlockImpl) { result.addToBody((BlockImpl) before); } result.addToBody(bi); if (after != null && after instanceof BlockImpl) { result.addToBody((BlockImpl) after); } return result; } return main; } protected Object renderPropertyValue(MarkupWriter writer, String overrideBlockId, boolean showdefault) { Block override = overrides.getOverrideBlock(overrideBlockId); String datatype = model.getDataType(); if (override != null) { Debug.debug("overrideBlock=" + override); Block ov = override; return override; } if (showdefault) { [snip...] // Don't render anything else return false; } return null; } where formerly I'd write <t:parameter name="lastloggedinBeforeCell"> i'm your decoration ${originalValue} </t:parameter> in the Component Template now I use <t:parameter name="lastloggedinBeforeCell"> i'm your decoration </t:parameter> I have yet to "wrap" an Actionlink around it, I probably have to split the ActionLink-Component into two, one before and one after the main BlockImpl, opening and closing the Link respectively.
