Administering Pagelets in the Portal Registry

This section discusses how to:

  • Register homepage and template pagelets.

  • Modify pagelet attributes and security.

  • Register URL-based pagelets.

  • Register pagelet extensions.

Note:

When you use Pagelet Wizard to register pagelets in the portal registry, Pagelet Wizard automates much of the process by interacting with the portal registry. You supply some key information in the pagelet definition, such as pagelet name, title, folder, and so on; Pagelet Wizard passes this information on to the portal registry.

However, the portal registry encapsulates other metadata about URLs that are accessed by way of the portal. Even if you use Pagelet Wizard to define and initially register a pagelet, you may still need to access the portal registry to update an attribute or to register additional entries.
