Manage pages
Manage Pages allows you to create, edit, activate, order, and delete pages as well as external Web pages and labels. Available tasks depend on which item is selected. Each page can contain multiple pages. All pages on which you have the User or greater role are displayed in a navigation menu.
You must expand pages to access nested pages. The options that you see are dependent upon your access level.
Select pages
Pages that you can modify in Manage Pages appear as links in a table. By clicking on a link to select a page, you can navigate to other nested pages to perform page tasks. You can also select labels and URLs in Manage Pages.- Create pages
A page displays content, such as portlets and other pages, in a single area. By creating pages, you can organize your information and add new navigational elements to the site.
- Create a label
Labels act as separators that organize groups of pages and URLs into categories. When you add a separator on the site, decide between creating a label or a page. You create a label instead of a page when you are only seeking an organizational solution and do not need to display content.

You can create URLs to add external URLs to the portal navigation.
