About Editing Portlets

If a portlet has an Edit Properties icon or an Edit Content icon in the title bar, then you can edit the portlet as described here:

Icon Name	Icon	What You Can Edit
Edit Properties		You can edit the properties of the portlet, including the portlet's name, description, and keywords. If you are a group content administrator, you can also specify a group with which the portlet is to be shared.
Edit Content		You can edit the contents of the portlet. For example, you can specify the content items to be listed in a collection portlet. You can also specify whether each item's description and location are displayed.

You can edit any portlet that you created yourself. If you are a content administrator for a group, then you can also edit portlets that have been shared with the group. (The word Shared in the title bar indicates that a portlet has been shared.)

The following types of portlets can be edited:

collection portlets
information map viewer portlets
WebDAV content portlets
WebDAV graph portlets
WevDAV navigator portlets
URL display portlets
Bookmarks portlets (contents only, not properties)

Depending on the software that is installed at your site, the portal might contain other portlet types that you can edit.

For instructions on editing a portlet's name, description, and keywords, see Edit a Portlet's Properties (Name, Description, and Keywords).
