# Portlets

In Plone, a portlet is a small, modular piece of content that can be displayed in a specific area of a web page. Portlets are typically used to display information that is relevant to the current context, such as the latest news, upcoming events, or a list of related documents.

The context is either the current part of the content hierarchy, the current user's group memberships, or the current content type.

Thus, if a portlet was set on a folder, all contained items do display the portlet unless it is explicitly blocked.

In Plone, a portlet is a small, modular visual element that can be added to a specific area of a web page, such as the right or left columns, or the footer.
15
+
Portlets can be used to display a variety of information, such as the latest news, upcoming events, or a list of related documents.
16
+
They can also be prepared to store their own set of fields, allowing users to add custom content to the portlet.
17

Portlets are typically used to provide relevant information to users in the context of the current page, hierarchy, user, or group.

Inheritance of Plone portlets allows for the automatic display of portlets in child items within the content hierarchy.
20
+
This means that if a portlet is set on a parent folder, all child items within that folder will automatically display the portlet unless it is explicitly blocked.
21
+
This can be useful for displaying consistent information throughout a section of the website, without having to individually set the portlet on each child item.
22
+
The inheritance of portlets can be overridden at any level of the content hierarchy, allowing for fine-grained control over the display of portlets on the website.

They can be added, removed, or rearranged on a web page by users with the appropriate permissions, allowing for a high degree of flexibility in the layout and content of a Plone site.
