You can organize your portal’s homepage by grouping and starring (favorite) sites for easy access, marking old sites as “inactive,” and hiding them from your default homepage view.
Accessing sites
Marking a site as a favorite
Assigning a site as a favorite is a quick way to access them. They will be the first group listed on the homepage.
To favorite or star a site, click the star at the bottom corner of the site tile. Filled in stars are favorited sites.
To remove a site as a favorite, click the star.
Make sites Active or Inactive
Sites that you want to retain data but don't need to see regularly can be made Inactive. Click on the three-dot menu in the site's thumbnail and select "inactive."
You'll be asked to confirm your selection. This hides the site from your default homepage view.
To make an inactive site active again, click on the three dots menu and select Make site "active."
Searching for a site
There are a few ways you can find a site on your homepage. You can type in the name of the site in the search bar.
Use the dropdown to sort your sites by Last Modified, Recent Survey, and Date Created, to name a few.
Or, you can filter your sites on the homepage to only include the sites you want to see when you log in.
Group sites
Creating groups within your portal makes it easy to organize your work or move finished projects from your homepage without deleting data.
Create a new group
There are a couple of ways you can create a new group.
1. The first way is to simply check the box of each site you want to include and then select GROUP.
Name the Site group and click CREATE NEW GROUP.
This method immediately adds the site you choose to include as you create it. The new group can be found under Your sites on the homepage.
2. Alternatively, you can create a new site group without immediately adding sites. From the +CREATE NEW dropdown menu, select SITE GROUP.
Name the Site group and click CREATE NEW GROUP.
You can add sites by clicking the checkbox at the top corner of the site tile to select the sites you want to add to the group.
Once you’ve selected all the sites you want to add to the site group you created, click MOVE TO.
Using the methods outlined above, you can also create a group within a site group. Three levels of groups are allowed.
Moving sites
Move between site groups
To move a site from one group to another, select the site you want to move and click MOVE TO.
Move back to the homepage
To move a site from a group back to the homepage, select it and click MOVE TO.
Click the arrow next to the site name.
Select the portal and click MOVE TO.
Deleting a site group
To delete a site group, click the three dots menu and select Ungroup.
Click UNGROUP AND DELETE to confirm.
Any site in that group will be moved back to the homepage, and the group will be deleted.
