Create and Edit Page Entries

Let's take a look at how you create and edit page entries for both the News feed and Home with Ask Oracle layouts.

Create and Edit Page Entries for News Feed

1. In Sandboxes, create a sandbox or enter an existing one. Make sure the sandbox has the Structure tool.

2. From the sandbox Tools menu, select Structure.

3. Do one of these steps based on your need and proceed to Step 4:

   • Click Create, and select Create Page Entry.

   • Click the name of a page entry to edit.

   • Click the name of a page entry and then click Create Duplicate to duplicate it.

4. Provide a name for the page entry.

5. Search for and select an icon for the page entry.

6. Select the group you want to put the page entry in.

7. From the Show on Navigator list, choose whether to display the page entry on the Navigator and home page. Then, from the Show on Springboard list, choose whether to display the page entry on the home page.

   If you select EL Expression, the evaluation of the EL expression decides whether the page entry will be visible for specific user roles. Click next to the list and enter an expression without line breaks or double quotes. Validate the EL expression and make sure it evaluates to true or false.

   Note: If you select EL Expression for Show on Navigator, the EL expression must evaluate to true for the page entry to appear on the home page. If it evaluates to false, the entry won't be visible on the home page even if Show on Springboard is set to Yes or EL Expression. In other words, the springboard setting is used only if the corresponding Navigator EL expression evaluates to true.

8. From the Mobile Enabled list, specify whether the page entry will be available for mobile devices.

9. Select a link type and configure the link details. See Configure Links for Page Entries and Quick Actions.

   Note: When you're editing a page entry, you can change the link configuration only for custom page entries.

10. Save the page entry and publish the sandbox.

Edit Page Entries with Tabs or Panel Tabs for News Feed

Some pages have tabs or panel tabs, which you can edit using the Edit Page Entry page.

4. Open the Tabs or Panel Tabs tab.

5. Select a row and make your changes. 

   • Provide a name and an icon.

   • From the Visible list, choose whether to display the tab or the panel tab on the page.

     If you select EL Expression, the evaluation of the EL expression decides whether the tab or panel tab will be visible for specific user roles. Click next to the list and enter an expression without line breaks or double quotes. Validate the EL expression and make sure it evaluates to true or false.

6. Use the Move Up and Move Down icons to adjust the relative position of the tabs or the panel tabs within the page.
