Online Help is provided for Enterprise Portal. The online help contains generic help topics for each standard page type. When you create pages, you should configure the new pages to display the generic help topic for that type of page. The following table lists the page types and the corresponding WSSHelpTopic property value that specifies the generic help topic for that page type.

Page type

WSSHelpTopic value

Role Center page

MSEP_EPRoleCenterPage

Site Home page

MSEP_EPSiteHomePage

List page

MSEP_EPListPage

Entity Overview page

Task page

If you create your own help collection for SharePoint, use the key values that correspond to topics in your help collection when you specify the help topic to display for a page.
