Use Pages to assist in the organization of Noodle. Simply create Pages and structure them within Noodle in a way that reflects your company such as Sales, Production, Human Resources etc or by employee. You can then add more Pages and Applications to each Page. The Company Headlines can be used as a headline page for the department, informing members of important news. You may also add rich HTML content to the home page that can link to external and internal documents, important to Noodle users.

Pages can contain as many Applications as you wish to place within them. You can also nest pages within pages to allow separation of files and applications within departments. This level of control allows Administrators to control exactly what content is available to users.

Select from the list below for specific Page instructions:

• Creating a Page
• Pages as HTML
• Pages as a list of Contents
• Page Headline View - Using Portals and Portlets
• Adding Portlets to your Page

There is also a separate page with instructions for the Intra Editor, check it out here

Creating a Page

To create a page in the main Navigation, click the 'Add' button next to the 'My Profile' button. Using this button to create a Page or Application will place it in the main navigation, inside the 'Company Headlines' page. To create a Page or Application within an already created Page, select the destination Page in the navigation and click the 'Create' button from the row of buttons. You may then specify the following:

Step 1. From the drop-down menu box select 'Page'.

Step 2. Choose a name for your new Page.

Step 3. When you are satisfied, select 'Create' to finalize. Alternatively, if you wish to create more pages or another application, select 'Create and Add Another'.

Pages as HTML

Once a Page has been created, the user may now begin to add content. If you wish, you may choose to use the page as a simple web-page and edit it using the Intra Editor. This way you can use HTML and all other web-based languages and technologies to create a webpage that fits your Noodle. This can be used to show articles and images in typical webpage fashion. If you wish to preserve the page as an HTML page, simply click the 'Edit' button adjacent to your page title which will bring up the Intra Editor application. You may then create a webpage as you would any other. Using multiple HTML pages allows you to create wiki-style sections within Noodle, allowing employees to update articles and information as required, which can be viewed by other Noodle users.

Page Content View

Content View shows all items currently contained within the page and can be managed using the options at the top of the page, as shown below:

Page Headline View - Using Portals and Portlets

Pages can be organized into a dynamic and interactive interface, that allows the user to fully customize their Noodle. Combine a Headline view Page with Noodle's built-in applications, for a comfortable working environment.

Pages can be fully customized to reflect your company, a department or even an employee! Keep colleagues up to date with the latest news or make files available for them to view or download.

In order to create portlet-based Headline page you should first enter the Administration area of the page. Select the 'Layout' tab to be presented with 8 options for laying out portals. Portals are containers that sit on a page and will allow the user to place applications into them for viewing.

When a Portlet has been chosen, click 'Save' to confirm your changes. At this point the user will be notified that the Headline Page will be converted to a Portal. Select 'OK' and the user will now be able to begin adding Portlets.

Adding Portlets to a Portal View

Selecting 'Portlet Settings' will allow you to manage which portlets are included in your page and how they will be arranged on your Page. In this case, the user would like the page shown in 2 columns:

This will make the page look as follows:

Adding Portlets

In the 'Portlet Settings' will see the containers that are currently set to appear on your Page. Underneath each will be a combo-box and a button marked 'Add'.

First of all select the type of Portlet you would like to add to your Page. Again, here it is helpful to know what Applications you would represented, as you must choose the portal that is appropriate for the type of Application. For example, if you wish to show recent files from a Document Manager on a page, you must add a Document Portlet onto your Page.

Select the type of portlet you wish to add to the Portal and click 'Add'. This will bring up a new window which will allow you to select which application you would like to add.

In this example, the Portlet is a Document Portlet. As the only Document Manager available to this user is Accounting Documents, that is the only one available to add.
