Page Name |
Definition Name |
Usage |
---|---|---|
EPPCM_CATG_MAIN |

|
EPPCM_CATG_MEM |
Add new members or inherit members from the parent folder. |
|
EPPCM_CATG_PRIV |
Assign members and determine the actions they can perform on the folder and the content located in that folder. |
|

Required Section on Pagelet |
Select this option if you want this section to appear on the pagelet. This selection forces the section onto the pagelet for all viewers and can be used to communicate important information when used in conjunction with a pagelet that is registered as required on a homepage tab. Note: This selection does not enable all viewers to view all articles; viewer roles on the articles still control whether a viewer can view any particular article on a pagelet. |
After you select the Required Section on Pagelet option, a new section automatically inherits the members and privileges of its parent news publication in the Folder Security page. However, privileges added later are not automatically transferred down the folder hierarchy and must be updated on a folder-by-folder basis. To assist with this process, an Inherit Members button appears when you view folder security for any subfolder, enabling you to quickly duplicate the same members as assigned to the parent folder.
Use the Browse Section Articles page (EPPCM_HIERNWS_MAIN) to displays basic information about the articles within a single section of a news publication and provides access to article details.
You can add, edit, delete, or view articles depending upon article status and member privileges for the section.
