Layout and content

The Edit Layout portlet allows you to define the layout and content of a portal page.

This portlet is located in the Page Customizer. Some of the options you can select on the page include:

• Layout template: You can select from one of several preconfigured page layouts.
• Add portlets: Allows you to select portlets from a list that you can add to containers on the page. This might require that you enter search criteria for portlets rather than listing all available portlets.
  Note: You can also drag portlets from the Portlet Palette to add portlets to the page.
• Show layout tools: Shows advanced layout tools for creating and editing page containers. This options overrides the preconfigured layout templates.

  If the Show layout tools option is not displayed by the Edit Layout portlet, you can display it by clicking the edit icon and checking the option, Show toggle link for "Show layout tools/hide layout tools".

The sample page below has the following layout:

• A Row Container that contains:
  • Two Column Containers, each containing:
    • Two portlet containers (controls), with a portlet in each.

The structure of an example page might look like this:
