Defining preview options

The preview options determine how content can be previewed. Preview options are defined within the Previewing Options section.

1. Select Allow authors to preview content in a Web page to allow users to preview pages using the Web Content Manager servlet.

2. To allow users to preview content in portal pages, select specific portal pages from the list located under Allow authors to preview content in the local portal pages selected. The portal pages displayed here are the pages available on the same instance of the portal where the Web Content Manager application is installed. The selected pages must contain a web content viewer to display the content.

3. To allow users to preview content in a portlet located on a different portal server, enter the URL to the remote portal page in the Allow authors to preview content using the following URLs field. The portal pages entered here must contain a web content viewer to display the content.

When using a web content viewer to preview content, ensure that the web content viewer is configured to receive links from Other portlets and this portlet. Otherwise the preview will not work.
