Default Content

 

Overview

Modules are included and required on the My Institution or other Module common areas from the Default Content page. The modules are listed with check boxes in two columns: DISPLAYED and REQUIRED. Displayed modules will be available to users and required modules will always appear to users. With displayed modules users can determine whether or not the module appears on their individual view of the common area. Required modules will always appear to all users with a Portal Role that can view the common area.
