Creating a new empty portal

With IPF, not only can you add or change content for the existing IPF portals, but you can also create a new empty portal to be used for development of another portal application. For example, you could create an employee portal or a financial data portal.

These are the tasks for setting up an empty portal:

Task
Ensure that prerequisites are met. See Prerequisites.
Create the empty portal record. Do not configure the portal, just create the new portal record and launch the Portal Manager for it.
In the Portal Manager, enable the empty portal for development.
Add development tools content. See Adding development tools content.
Configure the portal. See Configuring the empty portal.
