The Wikis portlet
The IBM® Connections Wikis portlet brings the collaborative power of an IBM Connections wiki to IBM® WebSphere® Portal.
Using the Wikis portlet
Use the Wikis portlet to interact with the IBM® Connections Wikis feature so you can access content without leaving the IBM® WebSphere Portal environment.
Editing the shared settings for the Wikis portlet
You
must have at least editor access for the page and for the portlet
to be able to edit shared settings for Connections features. For more
information about access levels, see the WebSphere® Portal product wiki. Settings
you enter on this page can be overridden by settings on the Personalize page
for a portlet. Choose Edit Shared Settings from
the portlet menu and choose which view to display in the portlet.
You can choose to display:
- All wikis
- A list of all wiki pages for this community (default)
- The currently selected wiki page
- The most recent wiki page for this community
Tip: If your site has a large number of wikis,
use the Tags portlet to find wikis that interest you. You can also
edit a wiki and then access it by sorting by recently updated wikis.
Configuring the Wikis portlet
You must have administrative access to the portlet to be able to configure it. Choose Configure from the portlet menu and configure these options:
