Pinning portlet content to a tag

Specify a tag to pin for an IBM® Connections portlet to show content that is associated with that tag.

About this task

If you want the content of a portlet scoped to a specific tag, you can set a page parameter to the tag.
Note: Each portlet can be pinned only to a single tag.

Procedure

  1. Edit the portal page that contains the IBM Connections portlets. For details on editing page parameters, see Editing pages, labels and URLS in the WebSphere Portal Knowledge Center.
  2. Set the page parameter for each portlet that you want to pin to a tag.

  4. Log out of WebSphere® Portal and then log back in to refresh the portlets so that you can see content that is pinned to the specified tag.
