Permissions
With the permission
Change portal pages in browser, which can be provided from the menu
Portal / Portal access permissions,
you can change the default settings (e.g. the number and positioning of the portlets), which
apply to all users, for each portal page.
You can reach the default settings from
Settings / Portal settings
directly from a portal page. Afterwards, click on
Personal settings and then
Default settings.
Here you also have the ability to search for an individual user, in
order to change their individual settings.
If you enter a user
name into the search field, the results will be output underneath the
search field. Click on the link to the desired user there. The
user's portal page will then be loaded, where you can change
the settings of this page. All changes will then only affect the user
in question. They do not influence the display of the portal pages of
other users. If you click on
Anonymous settings, you can change
settings for the portal page as it should be viewed by users who have
not logged in.
Actions
Reset
As the administrator, you can reset all changes that users have made to the
settings on their portal page back to the portal default by clicking on
Reset. This default corresponds to the configuration
of the portal page as it is shown to you when you are editing the
Default settings. Please note, therefore, before
performing a reset, that all changes that users have made to their pages
will be lost.
Safe mode
Clicking on
Safe mode allows pages to be loaded with
portlets containing errors on them. Non-functioning portlets can then be deleted,
in order to make it possible to load the portal page in normal mode.
Screen effect
Here you have the ability to show animated window effects in the portal.
Easter,
Christmas, and
Advertisement are available. By clicking on the
tool symbol, the settings can be changed and new effects can be created.
New effect allows your own effects to be created. This will animate an image file with the data set here.
User permissions
If you assign the user permission
Configure portal, the link
Portal settings will be shown to the user. With it, the portal page configuration will be available to the user. Users with this permission can, under
Actions, reset their individual portal page to the portal default and start in safe mode. The functions
Search portlet and
Add portlet are also available there for use. In addition, portlets can be moved via drag & drop on the portal page.
To do so, simply click on the title bar of a portlet and drag it to the desired position. Changing settings of individual portlets via the
symbols in the portlet title bar is also made possible with the permission
Configure portal. A user may optionally be given the additional permission to add more columns to a portal page or remove them, create portlets or delete them. Click on
OK to apply the new settings. The changes will be made effective as soon as a user logs into the portal again.
