To use personalization adapters, first you create new key values for the adapter you want to use, then you create a portlet that provides input values using that key. Later, users can personalize the key by entering their own default value for the portlet’s input field. For example, you have a portlet where you enter the postal code to see the weather for the associated area. It uses a database table adapter to provide the postal code input field. Each user can edit the key and enter their own personal postal code so the local weather displays each time he or she accesses the weather portlet in Portal Interface.
To use the personalization feature, select the following from the Web Studio main window:
Manage | Personalize – select from the left pane to create, edit, manage, or delete personalization keys for each adapter type.
Build | Portlets – select from the left pane to create portlets that pull input values from personalization keys.
Account Info – to manage and customize your personalization values.
