Overview
Using the Portal Content Manager, you can modify the portal experience for your partners when they login to Marketing Center. This can include featuring campaigns or tactics on the homepage, sharing new or blog posts, providing access to training resources and webinar, and more.
The specific elements that are included and editable for the portal content are unique for each vendor. To setup new elements of the portal content for you to customize for your partners, contact your account manager.

Here you are able to see all of the different editable areas of the portal content. Click the name of an area to modify the content within that section.
Modifying Portal Content

In the Content section you are able to edit the individual elements that make up the post. The editable elements will vary depending on the purpose of the post.

A news post might have a title, short description, and body section where the main news content is entered. To edit the content area click the Edit button.
