Adding a link to a Related Links list

The left header of each landing page includes a Related Links list where you can place links to websites that are hosted outside of the portal. To add a link, you must add a reference of the Related Links integration document and configure the data items to specify the URL and the locations of the link. (When you use a reference document, it inherits any changes that are made to the source document.) You must add a copy of the Related Links integration document for each related link that you add. You must assign groups to the document. You may specify up to three landing pages where each link will be shown.

  1. Click the Document Manager button. The Document Manager opens, showing all pages in the system.
  2. Select Add new document > Add from Organization.
  3. Click the Add Method drop-down and select Reference.
  4. Specify related links in the Name/Tag search field and click the Search button.

  15. To add the link to another landing page, click section2, delete the sample text, and specify the landing page in this format: subject_link, where the subject is the landing page subject. For example, specity career_link to add the link to the Careers landing page.
  16. Close the Data Items menu.
