Overview
This knowledge base article provides you with everything you need to know about Pages on your ShareVision site.
Requirements/Dependencies
Before working with Page Settings on your ShareVision site, you will need to:
Login with Site Administrator permissions
Have set up some forms, documents and/or calendars in Site Administration
Know which Portal you want to add a Page to or which Page you would like to edit
Have developed a plan for the information that will need to be made available to your ShareVision users (i.e. Consider what Pages you will need for the Portals on your site, what type of information will be included on each Page and who should have access to each Page)
Important Information about Pages
This knowledge base article provides specific information about Pages on your ShareVision site. It is important to note, however, that every Page must have at least one Page Part. If a Page does not have a Page Part and the Page is viewed on your site, the Page will display a warning message, as shown below.
We recommend reviewing the Page Part knowledge base article after you have reviewed this article.
