Add content

Add content to a page by selecting a portlet or widget from a content source that is listed on the content catalog: All sources, IBM Mashup Center, or the portal.

To add content...

  1. Click the Customize button on the toolbar to open the content catalog.

  2. Select a category from the menu on the side.

  3. Filter the results displayed by typing space separated search terms into the input box near the upper corner.

  4. Page through the content by using the Previous and Next links or the Jump to page ___ input underneath the search results.

  5. To see more information about a particular piece of content, click the title to view a popup dialog that details the item.

  6. Add an item to the page by clicking the Add to Page button on the details dialog or the plus ( + ) icon to the side of the title in the list of results. If an item has more than one renderer, a dialog pops up with a dropdown box of choices; select a choice to render the content and click the Add button.

    This adds the content to your page immediately in the backend. Once the transaction is complete, a placeholder will appear on your page containing the title of the new content.

  7. To see newly added items, close the shelf by clicking the Save button. This synchronizes the page area so that you can see all content.

    Closing the shelf after adding content to the page results in a full page refresh in order to render the new content added to the page.

  8. Rearrange the page by dragging and dropping the pieces of content as required.
