Changing Portlets Portlets are boxes that are automatically placed in teacher webpages.
Changing Portlets • Go to whatever page you want to remove those boxes from. • In the tool bar go to “advance” and select “switch to design mode” • You will see a red box with an “X” in the upper right hand corner of each box. Delete it/them. A warning window will appear telling you these changes are permanent. Click the box saying you “understand” and delete. • After you have deleted the boxes, there should be a clickable link that says “add portlet to region.” Click on that. • There should be two drop down menus that appear. The right one should say “basic.” if it does not, switch so it does. Then, in the check boxes below it, select “content”. • Click “update website.” • After that step refresh the page you were working on and it should be blank. Then you can go to the toolbar under “page properties” and select “edit” like you were doing on Tuesday and hyperlink pages like you were doing before, but that ugly box will be gone!
