Activate or deactivate a page, label, or URL

We can deactivate a resource to prevent users from accessing it without having to change their user roles. We can toggle pages, labels, and URLs to be active or inactive from Manage Pages. If we deactivate a resource, users cannot access this inactive resource.

Pages and other portal resources can be in an active or inactive state. When a portlet application or portlet is in the active state, portal users with appropriate access can include it on their personal pages and customize it. If we deactivate a resource, users who have active references to the inactive resource on a portal page cannot access that inactive resource. Instead, they see a message that states the portlet is temporarily disabled. When we start working on a portlet, the portal changes its state to deactivated. After completing work on the resource, remember to activate it so that users who have the appropriate access permissions can use it.

To activate or deactivate a page, label, or URL, we must have the Privileged User, Manager, Security Administrator, Editor, or Administrator role assignment. To activate or deactivate a page, label, or URL...
