Introduction

From the first deployment, the "Together" portal will be already pre-configured with several web parts that you will not be able to remove or edit. These web parts were specifically predefined for you so that you will be able to add your own content within those web parts according to your company's needs.

However, if you have a site permission to contribute and edit "Together" pages, you will be able to add other Sharepoint native web parts to your pages. 

As you start adding SharePoint web parts on the page, be careful in terms of look and feel -  it will not be the same as proposed by Powell.

How can I slightly customize my pages ?

Editing Powell software web-parts 

You will not be able to modify Powell Software web-parts that are already available on the portal pages. You will not be able to change the web-part configurations, including the web-part titles.

The only Powell Software web-part that you will be able to modify is the "Welcoming Text" web-part, that is used to provide an introduction to a page or a department. You will encounter this web-part on the portal's "Company" and "Departments" pages.

The only modification that you perform with this web-part is the change in the title. You can give any title you want to this web part. 

Of course, then you will be able to add a content of your choice. 

SharePoint web-parts

You have an extensive list of SharePoint web parts that you can add to your pages - depending on what kind of content you want to display.

"I want to add a streaming video or Youtube video"

Using videos as an internal communication tool is always a good idea.  You can embed videos alongside your text to strengthen your message or you can propose some trainings to employees through them. 

To add videos to your page you can use either Stream or Youtube web-part. 

Stream

When adding a new web part, scroll down and search for "Stream". 

As you click on it, you can then choose the display of the web part. 

If you click "Edit web part", you can:

• Define the source: you can put all of the stream, a single video, or a channel
• Sort the web part by : trending, publishing date, views, and likes
• Enter a search term to filter video results

For example, if you choose a “channel” or a “single video” option under the source, you should add a channel address or a video address by putting the url. 

Then you can sort your source by available options:  trending, publishing date, views, and likes.

Youtube

When adding a new web part, scroll down and search for Youtube. 

Insert the URL of the video that you want to appear on the page. Enter a start time if you want to start the video at a time other than the beginning.

"I want to add Microsoft Forms to do a survey and collect employee feedbacks"
