	For information on the opposite concept, using AppBoard to display enPortal content, see the page on [[~~Web_Widget_PIM_Content~~\|creating enPortal content in AppBoard]]. In cases where both enPortal content (PIMs, channels, ...) and AppBoard content (Boards, Widgets, ...) are to be provided to the end-user, occasionally the system designer will need to consider whether it is better to render the content using the AppBoard display ("Stacks") or the enPortal display ("Folders"). In general, the AppBoard display is preferable because displaying AppBoard (Flash) content in enPortal can cause the Flash client to reload when a user switches tabs in enPortal, and multiple Flash clients can get loaded which is not optimal for use of memory and CPU processing.

When moving the folder, if adjacent folders are expanded, the moved folder can go into the adjacent folders. To have the moved folder reside outside of the adjacent folders, make sure the adjacent folders are collapsed. Lastly, when folders are renamed, they will move to the bottom of the list in the '''Explorer''' panel and will need to be moved back to the desired position.}}
