Custom Content

Custom Content allows Users to customize the feel of their CustomerCenter Portal by adding and updating the Widgets that appear on the Home Page, as well as at the Top and Bottom of defined pages. To create or modify Top and Bottom Widgets, you must first access the Customer Center Admin page. This is done by navigating to Admin > CustomerCenter Admin.

Widget Management Options

All Widgets available within CustomerCenter for use are found on the Widget Carousel, located towards the top of the page. It enables a User to navigate the selection of available Widgets and allow for them to be displayed on desired pages.

There are a number of buttons/icons on the widgets.

- The Preview Icon, when clicked, will allow a User to see what the Widget will display when a User navigates to the page with the Widget present.
- The Delete Icon, when clicked, will delete the custom Widgets. This is only for custom Widgets.
- The Edit Icon, when clicked, will allow a User to update the properties of a Widget.
- The Remove Icon. When a Widget is added to a page, the Delete icon is replaced with the Remove icon. Clicking the Remove icon will return the Widget to the Widget Carousel.
- The System Widget Icon denotes a Default System Widgets that can not be Edited or Deleted.
- The Lock Icon Indicates there are roles assigned to that widget. If there are roles assigned to a Widget, then only Users with one of those roles can see the widget. You can click the icon to see which permission is assigned. If no roles are assigned, then any User will see those widgets.

Note: Default PCR-360 Widgets can not be edited.
