These topics discuss how to manage features:
Features are JavaScript libraries that provide apps with specific functionality, such as communicating with the Oracle Social Network Server, adding interactive behavior, or manipulating data. Oracle Social Network adds several features as part of the installation process. Under normal circumstances you do not need to change features that are included with Oracle Social Network, but you might want to add features that are needed by new apps that you add into the environment.
Do not modify or disable any of the default features unless advised to do so by Oracle Support. Doing so might disable critical functions of Oracle Social Network.
From the Features pages, you can add features, and enable, configure, disable, or remove existing features. Features currently installed in Oracle Social Network are listed, along with fields indicating a version number and a date/time stamp indicating the most recent update to the feature files.
When you add a feature, Oracle Social Network uploads the file for the feature and adds (deploys) it.
To delete a feature, click Delete to the right of the feature in the list.
Note: Deleting a feature removes it only from the Oracle Social Network application. The actual file used to create the feature is not deleted.
Do not make changes to the default features that come with Oracle Social Network unless advised to do so by Oracle Support. Doing so might disable critical functions of Oracle Social Network.
