Remove an Application

When you remove an application from a collection portlet, the application no longer appears in the portlet. However, it remains in your portal repository so that you can add it later. If a collection portlet is shared with a group, applications can be removed from the portlet only by a group content administrator for the group.

Note: You can also permanently delete an application from the portal environment. When you delete an application, the application is no longer available for you to add later. To delete an application, use the search tool. See Using the Search Results Panel.

To remove an application from a collection portlet, follow these steps:

Navigate to the page that contains a collection portlet with the application that you want to remove.
In the portlet's title bar, click the Edit Content icon .

Note: The icon is available only if you are authorized to edit the portlet. If the portlet is labeled Shared, then you can edit it only if you are a group content administrator for the respective group.
In the Items box on the Edit Portlet Content page, highlight the application that you want to remove.
Click the remove icon to the right of the list box.

A message appears indicating that the application will be removed from your portal but not deleted permanently.
Click OK in the message box.
On the Edit Portlet page, click OK to return to the page where you started.

Note: The application is removed from the portlet, but it remains available to find using the portal's search function.
