CONFIGURATION IN PORTAL PAGE SETTINGS
Top Section
Each Portal Page is given a Page Name. "Web" refers to the SharePoint Site. "List" refers to which list this page will work with.
Display Page UI Settings
A page can have an icon or image. This needs to be a JPEG file 135px X 125px. It can be selected by using the Choose File and Upload Image buttons. Click "Hide" checkbox to not show an image or icon. A Page Title is required. A Page Description can also be added (which can be set to Hide so it does not show to the Portal end users).

This section sets the Tabs/Sections and other settings for the form. See Tabs & Sections for details.
Advanced Column Settings
Column Permission and Associated Items are configured here. See Advanced Column Settings for details.
