Remove or Delete a Page

When you remove a page, it no longer appears in your navigation bar. However, it remains in your portal repository so that you can add it later.

When you delete a page, the page is permanently deleted from the portal repository, and therefore it is not available for you to add later.

To remove a page from your navigation bar or to permanently delete a page from the portal repository, follow these steps:

Navigate to the page that you want to remove.
Click CustomizeRemove Page.
On the Remove page, select one of the following:

Remove this page from my personal portal

If you select this response, the page no longer appears in your navigation bar. However, it remains available in the portal repository so that you can add it later.

This choice appears only if you are authorized to remove the page. You can remove from your personal portal pages that were shared as default or available. However, if a page was shared as persistent, then it can be removed only by a user who is designated as a content administrator for the group.

Remove and permanently delete this page

If you select this response, the page no longer appears in your navigation bar. It is also deleted from the portal repository and therefore is not available for you to add later.

Note: If a page has been shared with a group, it can be deleted permanently only by a user who is designated as a content administrator for the group.

If you select Remove and permanently delete this page, and if the page contains one or more portlets that you are authorized to delete, then the following check box appears:

Delete the following portlets that are contained on the page

All of the portlets that you are authorized to delete are listed in the box below the message. The list includes portlets that you created. If you are a group content administrator, then the list also includes portlets that have been shared with your group.
If you want to permanently delete all of the portlets that appear on the list, then click the check box. If you want these portlets to remain in the portal repository, then leave the check box blank.

If you want to delete only some of the portlets, then leave the check box blank and use the search tool to find and delete the portlets. See Using the Search Results Panel.

Note: You can also delete a page by using the search tool. See Using the Search Results Panel.
