Adding a page to another page

Portal provides a generic Page portlet that you can use to include a page within a region of another page. You can display the entire page, or choose just a few regions from the page to display.

Note: This help topic provides the steps for adding a page that is not published as a portlet to another page. If you are creating a page that you later plan to add to other pages (and possibly share with other users), you can publish that page as a portlet. The portlet that you create will be available in the Portlet Repository. After you create the portlet, you can follow the steps for adding the portlet to a page.

To add a page to another page, you must have at least one of the following privileges:

Portal administrator
Manage All privileges on the page group to which the page belongs
Manage Content privileges on the page
Manage Content global privileges on All Pages

Notes:

If you have at least Add-Only Customize Portlets privileges on a page, you can add a page to that page when you customize the page. The page you add will only be visible when you view the page on which you placed the portlet; other users will not be able to see the page portlet.
When you add a page to another page, significant table nesting occurs in the underlying HTML. If you are using a Netscape browser, serious performance problems can occur when the page is rendered. It is not advisable to nest pages within pages in a Netscape environment. If you add a page that contains several portlets, performance for the page will most likely be degraded no matter which browser is used.
When you add a page to another page, you can customize the page you add so that you can edit it directly from within the container page itself. This allows you to edit a page quickly, without using the Navigator.

To add a page to another page:

Navigate to the page on which you want to add the page.

Note: If you do not see the page that you want to work with, you may not have the appropriate page access privileges. See your page group administrator to gain access.
Switch to Edit mode.
Click in the region in which you want to add the portlet.

Note: If the region already includes items you cannot add portlets to the region.
In the Portlet Repository:
1. Click User Content.
2. Click Portal Page Group.
3. Click Page.
Note: You can also search for this portlet, Page, in the Search field.
Click OK to return to the page.
Next to the Page portlet, click .
Select Edit Defaults.
In the Display Name field, enter a name for the portlet.
Click next to the Page field, and select a page.
Use the Page Regions check boxes to display all regions, or selected regions, in the portlet.
Select Display Edit Link if you want users to be able to switch to edit mode within the portlet itself.
Click OK to return to the page.
