Work with pages
Read about the different tasks associated with the Manage Pages portlet.
The Manage Pages portlet allows you to perform the following tasks:
- Create, reorder, delete, and edit the properties of pages, labels, and URLs
- Reorder pages, labels, and URLs
- Assign access to pages, labels, and URLs
- Move pages to a new location in the portal hierarchy
Both administrators and users with appropriate access can create and delete pages. Users can only delete the pages they create or the pages for which they have at least Manager access.
When creating a URL Mapping or creating or modifying a page, verify URL Mappings and friendly URLs in the portal do not match, partially overlap, or otherwise interfere with each other. For example, do not use strings such as home, ibm, ibm.com, and do not use strings that have been used as URL Mappings or friendly URLs in the portal already. Otherwise infinite browser redirect loops might occur, sometimes without an error message. To determine such strings, create an export from the portal by using the XML configuration interface and scan the exported XML result output file for the string to use for URL Mapping or for friendly URL.
Pages, and shared, derived, and hidden pages
Understand the behavior and difference between shared pages derived pages, and hidden helps you manage pages and create the right type of page for needs.
A page displays content, such as portlets and other pages, in a single area. By creating pages, you can organize information and add new navigational elements to the site.
Use the Manage Pages portlet to set up the original page to be shared.
A page can be set to reference an existing page only during page creation.
To simplify the creation of pages, define pre-configured pages that can be used as templates when creating new pages.
Create pages from a page template
Create new pages quickly by using a page template. Pages created from page templates contain pre-configured portlets and settings.
