If
(the add item icon) does not display next to the region, the region
may be a portlet region (and may contain portlets). In this case, you
cannot add items to this region.
From the Content Item Types list, choose Page Link.
Note: You can also choose the Simple Page Link item type, or a custom item type based on the Simple Page Link item type. Item types preceded by "Simple" have few attributes. This allows items created based on the item type to be quickly added to a page, and extended with additional attributes, if required.
If an item type does not appear in the list, contact your page group administrator. Your administrator selects which item types to display here.
Click Next.
In the Path field, click
to display the Page Group Map. Only the pages that you are authorized

Perspectives describe the audience for the item. In the Perspectives
field, click the move arrow 
to move a perspective from the Available

Select multiple perspectives by holding the Ctrl key while clicking each perspective you want.
Hover over the arrows for hint text.
