You did not state which version of the Portal you are using so I will assume 2.6.x. The base page for the portal is given by the file jboss-portal.sar/conf/data/default-object.xml. If you examine this file, you will see that it declares the base portals but only the home (default) page on the default portal. So where does, for example, the weather page and its portlet come from? It is declared in jboss-portal.sar/sample/portal-weather-samples.war/WEB-INF/default-object.xml. The news page is similarly declared. Follow those examples to add your own pages, or your own portlets to the home page.
