The answer is yes, yes you do. Who doesn’t?
Many folks we talk to don’t know much about creating a modern, fluid, rich website experience with PeopleSoft. In fact, it’s something that, in this day and age of SaaS and web access, doesn’t get more play. And that’s too bad, because with PeopleSoft, Applications Portal and the new workcenter framework, there’s a ton of tools at your disposal.
Fortunately, Matthew Haavisto over at the PeopleSoft Technology Blog can point you to a new Red Paper that will help get your head around such things. Do any of these sound like something you’d like to build robustly within PeopleSoft?
- Branding
- Creating a Portal header definition
- Customizing the Homepage Tab layout
- Customizing Pagelet Layout and Behavior
- How to build rich pagelets using Pagelet Wizard
- Creating Navigation Collection-Based Accordion Style Pagelets
- Creating News Publication Based Slide Show Pagelets
- Creating HTML Pagelets with Rich Content
- Navigation Collections (several topics)
The paper also cover application integration with Portal:

In addition to the Portal, the new workcenter framework is also covered, as are Collaborative Workspaces.
- Customizing the WorkCenter Layout

There’s a wealth of information provided in this Red Paper. If you’re using (or planning to use) PeopleSoft Applications Portal, give it a shot.
