Edit Web content portlet settings
When adding Web content portlets to your site edit the settings of these portlets.
To configure a Web content portlet, select one of the following options from the drop-down menu located in the portlet title bar.
- Edit Shared Settings
- This mode enables you to specify settings for all users of this instance of a Web content portlet. Changes you make using Edit Shared Settings are not reflected in other instances of a Web content portlet.
- Configure
- This mode enables you to specify settings for all users of all instances of a Web content portlet, regardless of the page on which the portlet instance appears.
Once the shared settings of a portlet has been edited, the default Configure mode settings will not be displayed on a page, even if you edit the Configure mode settings. To restore a portlet to its Configure mode, delete the portlet from the page and add it back.
- Configure the Authoring Portlet
An authoring portlet is used to create and manage Web content.
- Set up a local Web Content Viewer
Use a local Web Content Viewer to deliver Web sites that require the use of WebSphere Portal based features such as authoring tools.
- Set up a remote Web Content Viewer
To display Web content on a portal where Web Content Management is not installed, you can install a traditional Web Content Viewer on the remote portal and then configure the Web Content Viewer to retrieve and display content from your Web Content Management system.
