The first page that you see as a Manager, is the Getting Started page. If you sign in as any other user, the first page you see is the Home page. If you add a new personal page and sign out of the portal with the new page in focus, the new page opens, by default, the next time you sign in. You can create new pages in the WebFOCUS Business User Edition to display the content that is available to you.
Procedure: How to Add a New Personal Page
Click the Add Page icon, as shown in the following image.
A blank page and the WebFOCUS Resources panel opens. You can drag content from the Resources tree panel to the page.
Procedure: How to Add a New Base Page
- In the Resources tree, right-click a domain page, and then click Publish.
For more information on how to create domain pages, see How to Use the Page Designer to Create a Domain Page.
- Right-click your published page, and then click Add to Portal.
The confirmation message appears indicating that the page is added to the portal.
- Click OK to close the confirmation message.
The BUE portal refreshes, the new page appears in the new tab.
Note: The domain pages added to the BUE portal behave as base pages. Base pages are locked by default at design time to prevent users from making run-time changes.

- Navigate to the page that you want to populate with content.

Note: When you drag one item on top of another and position your cursor in the center of the other item, you have a choice to either replace the existing item or add the new item as a new tab. If you choose the latter, a tabbed container will be automatically created. If you choose the latter, a tabbed container will be automatically created. If you multi-select several items and drag them to a page, they will display as tabs inside a single panel. You can refresh or delete each tab individually. You can rearrange content by moving it on the page with your pointer. Optionally, you can change the layout of the page by right-clicking the page title, and then clicking Page Layout. The default layout of the personal pages is Fluid Canvas.
