This will be required for Service Domain Owners who will have the ability to create and manage a Service Domain page.

By default, you will see only the pages (or sub pages) of domains that you have the rights to manage.

The All Pages button allows you to view all the pages and sub pages which exist in the employee portal (even if you don't have the rights to manage them).

To return to only viewing the pages you can manage, click the All Pages button again.

The pages of the employee portal are presented in tree format.

This will show a list of domains that have a page and or sub-pages defined against them

Page Management

Firstly, select the page you wish to manage from the tree on the left by clicking on it - All pages in the tree menu, include a link icon, which will take you to the specific page / redirect on the employee portal


  • Domain Page Options
  • Current Status - Shows the status of the page, if it is published or in draft and not visible to the extended audience
  • User Visibility - This shows you a drop-down of the configured and or available versions of the page which can be configured
  • This also allows you to view which version of the page you are managing, and editing. Swap the drop down to the version of the page you want to manage, and or use the drop down to Add another available version of the page.
  • If a version of the page is no longer needed, use the delete icon to permanently remove the version of the page.
  • Design Widgets - This option will take you into the widget designer/page details
  • Edit - This will allow you to edit the details of the page
  • Language version
  • User version
  • Page name and short description for the chosen user version and language.
  • In order to publish any changes, first save the changes and then use the Publish button.
  • Add a Child Page
  • Use this option to create a child page from the domain page
  • Selecting this choice will allow you to follow the steps for creating a child page
  • Name, Short Description, Slug - this will be the URL of the child page, which is prefixed with the path of the parent page and a definable end point (by default the name of the child page, but this can be set as needed).
  • Set the first user visibility level for the child page
  • A child page works like any other type of domain page, and can be configured by designing the required widgets and then publishing when ready
  • Child pages can also have it's own child pages by repeating the process above from a child page in the page navigation on the right.
  • Links to child pages will not automatically appear on the parent page, so as a designer of the page, if links are needed from a parent to a child page and vice versa, these will need to be added via link widgets on the appropriate pages.
  • Delete - Use this option to permanently delete a page.
