# Overview of My Content Portlet

My Content portlet provides you with tools to manage your content in the BEA Virtual Content Repository. You can create, rename, update, and delete content directories and nodes as well as browse content hierarchies and search for content. My Content portlet supports delegated administration, letting users view and manage only the content nodes delegated to them.

Setting Up My Content Portlet
My Content portlet must be set up in a portal, and you must have delegated administration rights before you can use it to manage your content.

Creating and Managing Content with My Content Portlet
The My Content portlet supports full create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations for content. You can edit content properties and create content (directory nodes and content nodes). You cannot create new content types in the My Content portlet.

You can have multiple binary properties for a content node. For placeholders and content selectors, only the binary marked as the primary property is displayed.

Searching Content
In the My Content portlet, you can search for content in the virtual repository.
