Home Page Updates

As a content administrator, you determine how to share content updates with home page end users.

You can update home page content in many ways, such as:

You determine how to share content updates with end users by selecting the home page update mode in the Fiori Framework Page configuration UI.

The following options are available:

Home Page Update Mode
Option	Description
Enable Automatic Updates	This option is the default. Changes are automatically applied when end users log on to the launchpad. End users see changes in the home page without warning, for example, tiles are added or removed. A Check for Options option does not appear in the Options menu in the home page header bar Caution Selecting Enable Automatic Updates can affect logon performance, so this option is not recommended for production mode.
Enable Manual Updates	End users can preview a list of changes to tiles before choosing to update the home page. A Check for Updates option appears in the Options menu in the home page header bar.
Notify Users About Available Updates	If updates are available, the portal displays a pop-up notification when end users log on. End users can accept or defer changes to their home page content. A Check for Updates option appears in the Options menu in the home page header bar. Note Selecting Notify Users About Available Updates causes the portal system to check for updates each time an end user logs on to the launchpad. These checks can have a minor impact on network load and performance.
Never Check for Updates	Choosing this option means that the end user does not get any changes that you as a content administrator make to home page content.
