SUGGESTIONS GENERAL Back to Top What is a “Knowledge Nugget?” You will see us refer to “Mail Nuggets” and “Tool Nuggets” and “Note Nuggets” and many more types of “nuggets.” This is essentially our description of the boxes or containers that hold all the applications that now sit on your CEOExpress homepage. There is no limit to the types of nuggets that can be incorporated, and feel free to send suggestions. What is a “Tab?” All of your nuggets are divided into sections, called Tabs. To display a Tab, click the tab name in the navy blue menu at the center of the page. Keep reading for more information. How do I access all my links? Instead of scrolling down the page to find all the link sections, you can now display one section at a time, clicking the tabs along the top of the links. Sections will now be referred to as “Tabs.” You will see Tabs for Daily News & Info, Business Research and Office & Travel. These are the provided CEOExpress Tabs (see “Why can I edit some tabs and not others?” below for more information.) You will also find all of your personal links in the My Links Tab. We’ve also created three additional tabs for you – Breaktime (slightly different from the old Breaktime), Tools, and News, and more are on the way. Keep reading to find out how to further customize these Tabs. TABS Back to Top How do I add and edit tabs (to host my Knowledge Nuggets)? We provide several tabs for you, including CEOExpress Managed Tabs and Pre-populated Tabs. And, if you have already created personal links on CEOExpress, they will appear in you’re my Links tab. To create more tabs, click the “Add Tab” (on the left hand side, above your link tabs), then select “Custom Personal Tab.” You can now move nuggets from other tabs to this new tab, or add new nuggets by clicking “Add Content.” To edit an existing tab, click the tab to open it, and then click the pencil to the right of your tabs menu. Move tabs using the arrows on the right. CEOExpress tabs cannot be edited. (See “Why can I edit some tabs..?” below for more information.) Why can I edit some tabs, and not others? You've probably noticed by now that some of your tabs behave differently from your other tabs. There are actually three different kinds of tabs, and they each have slightly different rules. (Don't worry, you'll get used to it!)
How do I change the name of a tab? To change the name of a tab, click the tab, and then the pencil to the right of your tab name. Can I move a tab? To move a Tab, first click on the tab you wish to move. Then use the arrows at the right hand end of your tab menu to move it side to side. If you have too many Tabs to display, they will start to appear in a dropdown menu on the right. Those tabs can be moved as well. Simply click the name in the menu to display the tab, and use the arrows. The tab will first move up in the order of the menu, and then onto the displayed tabs (knocking the last tab on the right into the menu). CEOExpress will remember your changes. (Please see “How many tabs can I display?” below for more information.) How many tabs can I have? You can have as many tabs as you need. If you have too many Tabs to display, they will simply start to appear in a dropdown menu on the right. How many tabs can I display? By default, once you add more than 8 tabs to your page, additional tabs will automatically appear in a dropdown menu at the right hand end of the tab menu. You may want to display fewer tabs outside of the dropdown menu (if your page is scrolling), or, especially if you are using a high resolution, you may prefer to display more tabs. Click "My Account" in the upper right hand corner of your homepage, next to your name. Scroll to the bottom to choose the number of tabs you wish to display. You can still add more tabs, but anything after your chosen number will appear in the dropdown menu. How do I set an opening tab? To open any tab, click the tab name. To set your "Opening Tab," (or "Default Tab") just click the pencil to the right of the tab name. Check the "Opening Tab" check box, and click the "Update" button. Now every time you return to CEOExpress, that tab will be open. If you would prefer to always be returned to the last tab you had open, check nothing. (Depending on when you started using this site, your Opening Tab may automatically be set to "Daily News and Info." If you do not want to have a default tab, click the pencil for "Daily News" and uncheck the "Opening Tab" check box.) What happens when I delete a tab? To delete an entire Tab, click the tab, and then click the “X” in the tools to the right of all your tabs. You will get a warning message, explaining what you are about to do. If you choose to delete the Tab, all of the Nuggets from that Tab will be moved to your CEOExpress Trash Can. The Tab itself will be deleted. If you want to keep any of the Nuggets, you can access your Trash by clicking the trash can in the tools to the right of all your tabs. These Nuggets will remain in the Trash for five days. At that time, all Nuggets, including your Personal Links Nuggets will be deleted, and CANNOT be retrieved. To save them, access your Trash before the five days are up, and move the Nuggets to other Tabs using the moving van in the grey bar at the top of each Nugget. How do I create a long scrolling tab? You can create a long scrolling version of the page under one of the tabs—it will essentially allow you to mimic the prior CEOExpress site, but have all the new features of the new site. It’s quick and easy to set up, and will allow you to view all your content at once, without clicking on multiple tabs to do so. To add a new tab, click “Add Tab” on the left hand side of your page, above the tabs menu. Choose “Long Scrolling Tab” from your options. Name the tab, and choose up to 7 of your existing tabs to include in the Long Scrolling Tab. (For those of you on slower connections, we do not recommend using more than 3 or 4 tabs.) The new tab will appear first on the left had end. Click “More information” at the top of the tab for details about editing the tab. NUGGETS Back to Top What kinds of Knowledge Nuggets are available? There are a variety of nuggets available. They include Links Nuggets, News Nuggets, Weather Nuggets, Stock Nuggets, as well as Nuggets that allow you to send Text Messages, view Flickr images, and conduct Searches. You can choose nuggets with the Editor’s Note or the Poll of Day, or other CEOExpress content. All nuggets can be found by clicking “Add Content.” To recommend a new nugget type, go to “Suggestions” below. How can I learn about the different kinds of nuggets? To add a new Nugget to a Tab, click “Add Content” on the left hand side, above your tabs. A list of Nugget types, such as Links, Tools and News will appear. Choose a category. A list of available Nuggets within that category will appear. For information on a specific Nugget, click the “Info” link to the right of the Nugget name. To find the same information on a Nugget that has already be added to a Tab, simply click the ? in the grey bar at the top of the Nugget. How can I add Knowledge Nuggets? To add a Nugget, first click on the tab to which you want to add the Nugget. (Remember, Nuggets cannot be added to CEOExpress Managed Tabs.) Next, click “Add Content” on the left hand side, above your tabs. A list of Nugget types, such as Links, Tools and News will appear. Choose a category. A list of available Nuggets within that category will appear. For information on a specific Nugget, click the “Info” link to the right of the Nugget name. To add a Nugget, just click the name. It will appear in the upper left hand corner of the chosen tab. You can then edit and move the Nugget as necessary. Can I create my own Nuggets? You can create your own Links Nugget. This is essentially a Personal Links Category. To add a nugget, click “Add Content” and select Personal Links. The nugget will appear in the tab you have open at that time. To add links to the nugget, click “Edit” in the grey bar at the top of the nugget. You can also add links from anywhere on the Internet using One-Click customization. (Keep reading for more information.) Can I move nuggets within their tab? To move a Nugget within its Tab, simply drag and drop to the new position. If you’ve never used drag and drop, here are some quick instructions: Mouse over the top of the nugget you want to move. Your cursor will turn into a directional arrow. Now left click your mouse, and hold, while you drag the nugget towards the spot you wish to move it to. The nugget in that spot will move, and red dotted outline will appear in the space. Simply place your nugget in the square, and let go. CEOExpress will remember your changes. Can I move nuggets to another tab? If you want to move a Nugget to another Tab, just click the moving van in the grey bar at the top of the Nugget and choose the tab you want to move it to. Please note: Nuggets in CEOExpress Managed Tabs (such as Daily News & Info) cannot be moved. Can I add Knowledge Nuggets to a CEOExpress tab? Daily News & Info, Business Research, and Office & Travel are CEOExpress Managed Tabs. The Link Nuggets within these tabs cannot be moved. You can, however, add personal links to those nuggets, or hide the links you do not use. Click the “Edit” link in the grey bar at the top of a Nugget to access these features. All of the personal links that you add to those nuggets will appear at the bottom of the nugget under a “My Links” subheading. What happens when I delete a nugget? If you delete a Personal Links Nugget, it will be moved to your CEOExpress Trash Can. These nuggets will remain in the Trash for five days. During that time, you can move the Nugget to another Tab if you want to, by clicking the moving van in the grey bar at the top of the Nugget. If you do not move the Links Nugget, it will be deleted from the Trash in five days, and CANNOT be retrieved at that time. If you delete any other kind of Nugget (not Personal Links), the Nugget will be deleted immediately – sent back to the CEOExpress Nugget directory. These Nuggets can be added again by clicking “Add Content” on the left hand side, above your tabs, but your personalization will be lost in most kinds of nuggets. LINKS Back to Top How do I add my own personal links? To create a new Personal Links Nugget to a personal Tab, click to open the tab. Then, click “Add Content” above the links tabs. Select “Links,” and then “Personal Links Nugget.” To add links to an existing Personal Links Nugget, click the Edit link in the thin grey header at the top of the Nugget. (Please read the instructions at the top of that page for more information.) You can also use One-Click Customization to add links wherever you are on the Internet. To add personal links to a CEOExpress category, click the Edit link in the thin grey header at the top of the link Nugget. Scroll down to add links. How do I edit/move/delete links in my Personal Links Nuggets? To edit a links nugget, mouse over the nugget to reveal the editing links in the upper right hand corner. Click “Edit.” Click “View Instructions” at the top of the edit page for detailed information. Links can be moved within their current nugget, or to another Personal Links Nugget using drag and drop. Can I change the configuration of my links? To change the layout of your links within your Links Nuggets, just click “My Account” in the upper right hand corner of the homepage, and choose a layout from the right hand column.
Another note: No matter which option you choose, the personal "My Links" that you have added to any CEOExpress managed links nuggets (under Daily News & Info, Business Research, and Office & Travel) will appear in the Classic layout. All other links will appear in your chosen layout. Can I change the size of my links? To choose a link font size, mouse over the word "Font" in the upper left hand corner of the page (in the pale blue menu bar). The font that you have chosen is bolded. Click an “A” to choose a smaller or larger font. (If you like the smallest size, this is a great way to display even more of your longer link names.) Where can I find my “My Links” in the CEOExpress Managed nuggets? Any personal links that you have added to CEOExpress nuggets can be found the categories to which they were added, at the bottom, under a subheading called “My Links.” How can I open links into a new window? When in doubt, always click the “My Account” link in the upper right hand corner of your homepage. This is where you’ll find all your account settings. To open links in a new window (or switch to open links in the same window), choose your settings in the right hand column of the My Account page. Can I import my personal bookmarks? To import your browser bookmarks to CEOExpress, just click “Import Bookmarks” above your tab menu. First, you’ll need to export your bookmark file. Instructions are provided on the “Import Bookmarks” page. A list of all of your bookmarks, organized into any folders you have created, will appear. Check only those folders you want to import, then select the name of the tab where you want them to appear. You can even choose to include/exclude specific links within a folder, using the +/- next to the folder name to display all links. Your bookmarks will appear in as Links Nuggets in the chosen tab. If you wish to import some bookmarks to one tab, and others to another tab, simply repeat the process, checking the bookmarks you want to send to the second tab, and select that tab before importing. I have so many links now – how can I search for one? To find any link, just use the Search Links search box at the right hand end of your tabs menu. Just start to enter the name of the link, or any word in the name. Your results will be displayed, with all links in CEOExpress Managed tabs and your Personal Links Nuggets. Your results will include the name of the nugget the link lives in, and a link to jump straight to the tab in which the nugget resides. SUGGESTIONS Back to Top Want to recommend a nugget? Click here.
