Editing and Removing Web Parts
Accessing My SchoolNet
My SchoolNet is the home page and portal for logged-in users. It
provides easy one-click access to SchoolNet features via
customizable “Web Parts” --- miniaturized, easy-to-read windows
that derive data directly from any SchoolNet modules that you
subscribe to.
1.
Log in to SchoolNet as you normally would. The My SchoolNet
tab is selected by default.
Note: Web Parts shown on your My SchoolNet portal depend on who
you are and the roles and permissions assigned to you.
View, Add, and Edit Modes
Keep in mind that your My SchoolNet portal has three modes: View,
Add, and Edit modes—the latter two are used less frequently. You
will only need to use Add mode to add Web Parts to your portal. And
you will only use Edit Mode when you want to edit a Web Part or
alter its appearance. To toggle from one view to another:
1.
To enter Add mode, from the bottom of the My SchoolNet
page, click the Add Content link.
2.
Alternatively, to enter Edit mode, click the Edit Layout link.
3.
To return to View mode at any time, from the bottom
of the My SchoolNet page, click the View Page link.

content.

layout, behavior, or property grid.
Note: After you’ve made any edits to the Web Part, be sure to click
OK or Apply at the bottom of the window to ensure changes are
saved to your My SchoolNet page.
Changing a Web Part’s Appearance
In Edit Mode, the Appearance area
allows you to add or edit the Web
Part Title, select a Chrome Type (top
of the Web Part that can include a
title, and/or border), the Direction
(left to right or right to left), as well as
the Height and Width.
The bottom check box allows you
to make the Web Part Hidden, if
needed.
1. From your My SchoolNet page,
click the Add Content link at the
bottom. You’ll enter Add mode, with
an Add Content column shown on
the left.
2. From the Add Content column,
put a checkmark next to a Web Part
to add it.
3. At the bottom of the Add Content
window select Left or Right to
position the Web Part on your
screen.
4. Click the Add button at the
bottom of the window.
5. Click Close to save your changes
and return to View mode.
Changing Web Part Layout
The Layout area allows you to
manipulate the Web Part’s
Chrome State (normal or
minimized), Zone (left or right),
and Zone Index (the order in
which the Web part appears on
the page). “0” is top most, “1” is
second to the top, and so forth.
