Add existing blogs or blog libraries to a page


If you created a blog or blog library for another page and now want to use it again, add a web content viewer to the new page and edit its settings to point to the existing blog or blog library.

  1. Create a project or access an existing project, and open the project in edit mode.

  2. If you have not already done so, create a page for the existing blog or blog library or open an existing page.

  3. Click the Content tab.

  4. Click All in the list of categories, and search for the portlet Web Content Viewer (JSR 286).

  5. Add the web content viewer to the page by clicking the plus sign (+) or dragging the viewer onto the page.

  6. Click Save.

  7. Click the drop-down menu located in the web content viewer title bar, and select Edit Shared Settings.

  8. Under Content Type, select Content Item.

  9. Under Content, click Edit.

  10. Click Libraries.

  11. Click the library containing the blog or blog library to add.

  12. Expand the selected library to see the blog or blog library to use.

  13. Select the blog or blog library and click OK.

  14. Click Apply to save the changes to the web content viewer.

  15. Click Advanced Options.

  16. Ensure the Broadcast links to option is set to None or This Portal page.

Tagged web content displayed in the web content viewer is only available when there is a single instance of this portlet on the page. When you click a tag result, the Tag Center broadcasts the information on what content should display in the viewer using a public render parameter. If you have multiple instances of web content being displayed in the web content viewer, then these instances display the content that you tagged rather than display the original content of these instances.
