Managed pages and the authoring portlet

When creating a managed page in the portal, a corresponding page item is created in the Portal Site library. The page items are represented as portal page site areas in the web content library.

By default, the display name of the portal page site area is based on the title of the portal page. Web Content Manager assigns a unique name in the library for each portal page site area. This unique name enables us to have pages with the same title organized in separate portal page site areas.

Although we can view the page items in the authoring portlet, the items are read-only. To change, move, or delete the page items, use the portal user interface. However, we can use the authoring portlet to add site areas and content items in the site structure for the managed page. In this case, the content added is automatically rendered by components, such as menus or navigators, and by web content viewers.

If you delete a portal page, the portal page site area is deleted from the web content library. If the portal page site area contains any other site areas or content items, they are also deleted.
