Add Content Page

When you choose the Add Content icon from the Page Layout Personalization page or the complete Page Hierarchy Personalization page, you navigate to the Add Content page. You can add content to a page only if the page is configurable and if the region you are adding content to is a boxed layout region that contains only content regions and not other layout regions.

The Add Content page displays a catalog of predefined content regions that you can add to the selected region. The Content catalog lists the title of the predefined content and its description.

Note: This page initially displays only the predefined content regions that were delivered with your Oracle application. If you have defined additional independent content regions that you want to include on this list, select the Create Content button to access the Create Content page.

Note: The Create Content button is available only at the Site, Function, and Localization levels.

If a content contains a user-personalizable region and one or more personalized saved searches of that region exists, the Content catalog will list each defined saved search by its saved search name and the content with which it is associated. Once you add a content (or a personalized saved search of a content) to a boxed layout region, the next time you display the Add Content page, the content or other personalized saved searches of the content will no longer be available for selection from the Content catalog. You must remove the content from the current layout region, using the Remove Boxed Region icon , before you can choose a different personalized saved search of that content to add.

  1. Enter a title or description in the Search region and choose Go to search for the content you wish to add.

  2. Check Select for the content you wish to add.

  3. Choose Apply to save your personalization and return to your previous page.

    The new content is added as the last content region of the selected boxed layout region.

Attention: Since you can personalize a configurable page at only one level at any given time, any personalizations you make to the page, such as adding new content, are not available at any other level. For example, if you create and add content to a flexibleContent region on a configurable page at the Site personalization level, that content will not be available to users at the Responsibility level. You can work around this restriction as follows:

  1. Use the Functional Administrator responsibility to launch OA Personalization Framework.

  2. In the Application Catalog, search for the specific region that you want to personalize, then select the Personalize icon to navigate to the Page Hierarchy Personalization page.

  3. Select Choose Context to specify the level(s) at which you want your personalization to apply.

  4. Personalize the region. Note that the personalization you create from the Functional Administrator tool is applied to all instances of the region.

  5. Navigate back to the configurable page and launch OA Personalization Framework. Set the personalization level to the level specified in step 3. In the Content mode of the Page Layout Personalization page, use the Add Content page and Create Content button to add the region personalized in the previous step to a desired flexibleContent region.

  6. If you specify more than one personalization level in step 3, repeat step 5 for each of the other personalization levels.
