Based on the roles and permission lists that are assigned to the guest user ID, as well as settings on the Guest homepage, the guest user cannot personalize the layout, content, or even the individual pagelets on the homepage.

Because guest users cannot perform their own pagelet personalizations, we provide the PAPP_GUEST_ADMIN role that you can attach to a user who you want to perform the role of Guest User Administrator.

See Setting Up Security for Guest User Accounts.

PeopleSoft Interaction Hub includes the User Personalization component, which can be used to personalize individual pagelets with the guest user in mind. This is especially useful when used with Pagelet Wizard with News Publications. You can use personalization options to force the display sections that are not set to required or that you only want a guest user to see.

Note: All pagelets accessible by way of the User Personalization feature can be personalized by the guest user administrator.
