Understanding published widgets

When you publish a local widget to the Widget Catalog, the widget becomes a published widget. A published widget is displayed in the Widget Catalog for all users unless an administrator adds permissions to the widget. A user can add a published widget to a page. When a published widget is republished, all users who have that widget on a page can see the updated widget the next time the user starts Infor Ming.le. A user can also manually refresh a page to see the updates.

In most cases, you are not authorized to make changes to widgets published by other users. You can, however, duplicate a published widget from the Widget Catalog to create a local widget that you can configure. After you duplicate a published widget, you no longer see updates made to the published widget.

An administrator may disable a standard widget, and in this case, all published widgets that are based on that standard widget are not available on any page and are not displayed in the Widget Catalog.
