The user experience of Verint Community is designed to support rich customization options, from simple page layout and end-user configurable changes, to custom widgets and new API declaration for rich integrations. Themes, widgets, and [[Plugins|plugin]]-based UI extensions can all be utilized to customize the user experience of Verint Community.

[[Themes|Themes]] and [[Widgets|Widgets]]

The user experience provided to end-users is defined by [[Themes|themes]]. Themes are the set of all global styling and scripted behaviors and define all page content (headers, content, and footers) which includes the layout, functionality inclusion, and configuration of the functionality on each page/URL served from the theme. The functionality of each page is implemented using [[Widgets|widgets]] which are templated fragments of HTML and Javascript that have access to the [[api-documentation:widget theme and automation apis|Widget API]] and [[api-documentation:REST API Documentation|REST API]]. When put together on a page, widgets fully implement the functionality of the page.

A complete page and the edit view of the page, showing the widgets used to compose the page.

[[Widgets]] can be customized (and new widgets can be created) within the widget editor within the administration of a Verint Community site and deployed either via exporting/importing or using [[UI Automation|UI automation API]] or [[Managing Widget Source and Distribution|a complete widget deployment package]].

The Social theme, which is included as the default theme for Verint Community, supports responsive design for [[Responsive Design|mobile devices]].

[[UI Extensibility|UI Extensions]]

In addition to the front-end UI customizations using widgets and themes, Verint Community also supports extending the UI via [[Plugins|plugins]] supporting UI functionality.

[[Extending the Contextual Management UI|Management]]

The user experience provided to managers of applications, groups, and themes is defined using [[Extending the Contextual Management UI|management panels]]. Management panels are exposed in the front UI by clicking the icon:

A management panel, Group Options, shown over a front-end themed page.

[[Extending the Contextual Management UI|Management panels]] are related to a specific context (for example, a group or a blog) and are shown overlaying the front-end UI (defined by the current theme). Management panels are intended to expose privileged functionality related to the current context that shouldn't be part of the themeable front-end UI.

[[Extending the Administration UI|Administration]]

Site-wide administration options are exposed via [[Extending the Administration UI|administration panels]]. Administration panels are accessed by clicking Administration within the top-level management panel options and are shown within a new page.

The administration UI, composed of administration panels.

[[Extending the Administration UI|Administration panels]] are globally relevant (not contextual). They are intended to expose site-wide options (such as plugin enablement/configuration) and administrative functionality (such as log viewing).

[[UI Extensibility|Other UI Extensibility]]

Verint Community exposes a set of [[Plugins/Framework extension|plugins]] that enable specific extensibility of UI functions. This includes [[Extending the Content Editor|editor extension]], [[HTML Headers|HTML header extensions]], [[HTTP Callbacks|custom HTTP callbacks]], [[Page Definition and URL Routing|new URL/routing extensions]], [[Sockets|custom live communication sockets]], and widget development extensions.
