Chapter 10: Building Pages

Choosing the page type

Web Studio supports several page types: default pages, catalog pages, guest pages, and personal pages.

Default pages, catalog pages, and guest pages are created in Web Studio. Personal pages are created in Portal Interface.

Default – active and approved default pages are automatically added to new Portal Interface accounts. Portal users can use one or more default pages based on their roles.
Catalog – predefined page available for users to add to their personal page groups by selecting Add Page in Portal Interface.

Do not confuse catalog pages with catalogs that group portlets. The default display catalog allows users to add portlets to their personal pages when they select Add Portlet in Portal Interface.
Guest – guest pages display when you access the Portal Interface URL. These pages are visible to new users before they log in or register for an account.
Personal pages – created by a user in Portal Interface. Personal pages do not display in Web Studio, although a user can share their personal pages with other Portal Interface users. See the Portal Interface online help for instructions.
