Creating a URL

You can create URLs to add external URLs to your portal navigation.

To create a new URL, perform the following steps:

1. Click Administration from the main menu.
2. Click Manage Pages directly from the navigation.
3. Click New URL to create a new URL. You will leave Manage Pages to create the new URL.
4. Type the title of the new URL in Title. This is the title for the default locale.
5. Select the type of URL. You can create an internal or external URL.

   • For internal URLs, select A link to the following portal page. Internal URLs direct the user to a page within the portal site. You can select only from pages that are bookmarkable. Also, you cannot create a URL to a top level page. Instead, select one of the available child pages.
   • For external URLs, select A link to a Web page with the following URL. External URLs direct the user to a location outside of the portal site. Select at least one markup, such as HTML, and the URL for that markup type.
6. Click OK to save these settings for the new URL. Click Cancel if you want to return to without creating the new URL.
