Add content to your community

As a community owner, you can add widgets to your community to make extra functionality available to community members. The choice of content that you can add to a community depends on what your administrator has made available.


You must be a community owner to add or remove content from a community.


When you first create a community, it displays the following content by default: Discussion Forum, Feeds, Bookmarks, and Members. You can customize your community by adding widgets from the content palette to the community. The palette displays the selection of widgets that the administrator has made available for use in communities. For example, adding the Wikis widget gives members access to a wiki where they can share files and collaborate on project documents. Adding the Blog widget lets you create a blog for the community where members can communicate dynamically and stay up-to-date with the latest community news.

To add a widget to your community...

  1. From the community's Overview page, click Customize to open the content palette.

  2. Click a widget to add it to the community.

  3. Optional: Click Close Palette to close the palette.

A section containing the widget is added to the main pane of the Overview page, and a link to the full widget application displays in the navigation sidebar.
