Personalizing a Web Page

The Personalization feature lets a signed-in (typically membership) user determine a page’s layout and content. The user can customize the page, displaying whatever interests him in an arrangement of his own design.

Examples of content that might appear on a personalized page are frequently-updated information, such as news stories, sports scores, a calendar, and stock market data.

A user gets his personalized view of the customized page after logging into any computer. The customization is tied to the user, not a specific computer.

In addition, anEktron CMS400.NET administrator can use thus feature to build a page’s content without Visual Studio.Net.

Important: The Personalization feature requires Internet Explorer 5 or higher. You cannot use other browsers.
