Customizing view definitions for portal site visitors
You can customize social rendering view definitions in a number of ways. For example, you can determine the social data that is shown and the visual appearance of the data. You customize social rendering by working with the social list definition authoring template. For custom view definitions, you can also create your own authoring templates.
Typically, a website designer does these customizing tasks.
Note
If you want to customize the web content that the sample web content library named Social Lists 1.0 provides, create a copy of that library and customize that copy.
