Pages

Select the appropriate subsystem.

Type a title for this page.

Type the reference to the URL that is used to access the page.

The reference is relative to the page URL specified on the domain, so the actual URL for a value “/iknowbase/about/” could be http://www.example.com/page/iknowbase/about, but also http://www.example.com/iknowbase.about, depending on your setup.

If this field is blank, you cannot access the page directly from a browser. You can still include the path in another page, or use it as a layout page. The path name must be a unique name.

Type the external key. This value is used for external integration.

Select the appropriate access control list (ACL) for the page. To view the page, the user must have read rights to the specified ACL.

Click the appropriate page type. This page type specifies whether the page that is created is used as an iKnowBase page or iKnowBase layout page.

Click the appropriate content type that identifies the type of content on the page. For example, text/html or text/xml.

Select the template that you want to use for this page.

Select the layout page you want to use for this page

• * edit (or set) the preferences of the portlet
• * Delete the portlet from the page
• * Run a test of this spesific portlet

Will either display :

• * the title set in the customization
• * (Configured, no title). Means the portlet has been configured, but no title has been given.
• * (Not configured). Means the portlet has not been configured.

Displays the portlet type.

Note: This is a read-only property. When you click the “Add portlet” link to add a portlet to the page, you choose which type of portlet to be added.

Type the name of the region where the component is shown. The underlying template can display this component at a location that is predefined in the template. The regions are defined in the template.

Enter an identifier to be used when identifying the component on the web page, or leave blank for an identifier to be automatically generated. The identifier will be used by automatically generated code in certain components, and can also be used as the identifier in the reloadComponent javascript function.

Note that if you enter a value here, this value must be unique on the rendered page (including embedded pages and layout pages). Whenever possible, it is recommended that the value is left blank.

Disable the portlet. It will be rendered when running the page. Typically used for debugging reasons.

Select the appropriate access control list (ACL) for the page. The component appears to the end user only if he has read access to the selected ACL.

Select the appropriate content cache mechanism to be used for the portlet.

Predefined options are:

• Per user, 1 hour: The content of the portlet will be cached per user, domain, and language. Cached content expires after one hour.
• Per user, until next date: The content of the portlet will be cached per user, domain, and language. Cached content expires at midnight (i.e. change of date).
• Shared, 1 hour: The content of the portlet will be cached per domain and language; all users with the same language on the same domain will share the same cached content. Cached content expires after one hour.
• Shared, until next date: The content of the portlet will be cached per domain and language; all users with the same language on the same domain will share the same cached content. Cached content expires at midnight (i.e. change of date).

You can add self-defined options, see the Page cache strategy chapter.

Note: If you leave this property blank, the content of this portlet will not be cached.

Note: Access control will not be applied to shared cached content. A user who accesses a portlet, which is configured to use shared cache, will see the exact cached content regardless of his access rights. A consequence might be that the user gets access to too much or too little data.

Select the appropriate render strategy to be used for the portlet. Available options are:

• Inline: The portlet will load and render together with the rest of the page.
• On load: The portlet will load and render after the DOM has finished loading for the page.
• Manual: The portlet will not automatically load and render. You should implement the necessary code to load and render the portlet using the iKnowBase JavaScript function reloadComponent, and the appropriate triggers.

Note: If you specify other render strategies than Inline, portlet decorations will automatically be rendered for the portlet (i.e. a div-tag with id and class attributes).

Type an identifier for the label.

Type the text labels that you want to use in the page. If multiple languages are supported in the solution, each language displays a box, in which you can type the display form name. When you place the cursor in the Text field, the language box appears. The language code is placed behind the field.
