Panes are pages of dashboard content. Panes can be added in a tree structure to facilitate naviation by users. This structure is built by utilizing the Portal Site Manager. If you are an administrator, Access the Portal Site Manager under the Jetspeed Administration Portlets menu item.

Site Tree

The Site Tree displays the existing structure of the portal. There are a series of pages and folders under the HOME root. Folders represent menu items or tabs on the menu bar. Pages represent individual panes. Expand on the folder if you want to add content below the folder. Click on the HOME root if you want to add a new folder or a page that will exist on the upper menu (for example WELCOME)

Folders and Sub Folders

In this example, the SALES folder is expanded. Under the sales folder are individual pages. To add a subfolder under the sales folder - click the SUBFOLDER link. To add a page or link - click the PAGE or LINK items.

The Sales Folder dialog contains the folder NAME (path on the server directory), TITLE, SHORT TITLE (name displayed in the menu for users) and DEFAULT PAGE (the page to be displayed when the main item is clicked - usually the first page in the sub folder structure)
