Entering your profile information
Enter your first name.

Choose a member name.
Choose a password.
Confirm your password.
Select the PortalUser role.
Read the terms and conditions. If you agree, select the “I agree to the terms and conditions” box and click Done.
You see the Portal Interface Welcome window. This initial window is the Default Page Group. To add pages and portlets, you must first add a new page group.
Creating new page groups
Click Manage Pages.
In the Manage Pages window, click Add Page Group.
In the Add Page Group window, enter a name for the page
group, such as myTest
.
For navigation styles, select the PocketPC/PDA and M-Business Client/PDA devices from the Available list, then click the right arrow to move them to the Assigned list. The navigation style allows you to specify how you navigate pages based on your operating system and browser.
To remove a navigation style from the Assigned list,
select the style and click the left arrow to move it back to the
Available list.
Click Done.
You see the first page of the page group you just created. The first page of the new group is automatically assigned the same name as the page group.
The new page group now appears in the page group as a tab and as a selection in the toolbar drop-down list.
Creating new pages
Select the page group myTest
,
and click Add Page at the top of the window.
Select “Add new page,” and enter myTest2
.
Page names must be unique; if the page name already exists within the
current page group, you cannot create the new page.
Select the Page Layout 30/70, and click Done.
Your new page name appears in the page tabs, at the far right. You can change the order of the page tabs using the Manage Pages option at the top of the window and editing the page group.
Creating a portlet
With the myTest
tab
selected, click Create Portlet.
In the Create Portlet wizard URL field, enter:
www.sybase.com
Click Go.
Click Press, which is listed under Communities.
In the left pane, click the New Releases link under Press Releases.
Click Next in the upper-right corner.
After the preview refreshes, click the first press release (the first link) under Press in the middle pane. The cursor flag gives instructions.
After the preview refreshes, click the second Add button (you can close any pop-up windows). The Sybase press release list is added to your page.
You can click a link to access the press release, and then close the window.
Either log out, or minimize the window. If the browser session expires, you must log in again when prompted.
