Creating a WoodsPortal Page in HubSpot
Learn how to build and publish a customer portal page using the WoodsPortal theme within your HubSpot website.
Once the WoodsPortal theme is installed in your HubSpot Design Manager, you can create a dedicated portal page that renders WoodsPortal’s frontend and connects to its backend API. Follow these steps to set up, configure, and publish your customer portal page.
Before you begin
-
You must have already connected your HubSpot account and created a WoodsPortal client portal (see Installing WoodsPortal).
-
Ensure the WoodsPortal theme and template have finished installing in Design Manager (allow 1–2 minutes).
The theme handles design; the WoodsPortal backend handles data flow and authentication.
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Create a New Website Page
-
In HubSpot, navigate to Content > Website Pages.
-
Click Create, then choose Website page.
-
Select the domain you configured when creating your WoodsPortal client portal.
-
Enter a Page name (for internal reference) and click Create page.
-
-
Apply the WoodsPortal Theme & Template
-
In the page editor, open the Theme dropdown and select WoodsPortal.
-
Under Template, choose WoodsPortal Template.
-
If you see a redirect error banner, simply close it—this does not affect portal functionality.
-
-
Configure the WoodsPortal Module
-
On the left sidebar, click Contents to expand the content modules.
-
Under Main content, click the WoodsPortal module.
-
Locate the WoodsPortal Admin URL field and ensure it displays the admin backend URL
https://woodsportal.digitalwoods.io
. -
Explore the three module tabs: Dashboard, Menu options, and Branding to adjust your portal’s look and navigation.
-
-
Set Page Settings
-
Click the Settings tab in the page editor.
-
Under General, enter a Page title (visible in browser tabs) and confirm the Page URL matches your portal domain/subdomain.
-
(Optional) Remove or adjust the Content slug—note that WoodsPortal can only be installed once per (sub)domain.
-
-
Publish the Page
-
Once settings are complete, the Publish button will activate.
-
Click Publish, then Open page in new tab to verify your portal loads correctly.
- Use your WoodsPortal credentials to log in.
-
The CMS Editor preview is not supported with this theme, so you'll have to publish the page after making any changes to view them in the portal.
