Anonymous access
If a Web Content Management Portlet needs to be accessed by anonymous users, then the user must configure the Portal server to have anonymous sessions.

...and setting...
public.session parameter = true
- Restart both IBM WebSphere® Application Server and WebSphere Portal Express for your changes to take effect.
Edit mode configuration
WebSphere Portal Express Administrators can deploy a single instance of the Remote Rendering Portlet (Remote Web Content Viewer) onto a server. The settings set for this portlet in configuration mode are then used by default each time the Remote Rendering Portlet (Remote Web Content Viewer) is added to a page. Initially all the portlets will display the same content. The user can then use the edit mode to customize the configuration of each instance. So while all portlets share the same base configuration, each one can customized as required.
