Moving Portal Favorites for All Users

Hi,
I need to migrate all portal favorites for all users from one environment to another (Test - Prod)
How can I do this with ICE when all I can see in the userhome directory a folder with my username and my favorites? Where are all the other users favorites stored?
Regards,
Roaa

Hi Rooa,
All Users Portal Favourites are stored under Content Administration -> KM Content -> Root -> Userhome.
This folder has all the data related / specific to a user. You can trasport this through to ICE to your other environment (QA or prod).
Check if this helps.

Portal favourites for all users to be same

hi all,
we have implemented ESS over portal and i have added some links to portal favourites.
they are appearing fine in my portal favourites section.
Now the requirement is that i want all users to see the same links when they logon by their respective ids.
but this is not happening. those links are in portal favourites for my id only.
Kindly let me what to do.
the way I added those links was to just click over the link in ESS workset and from the page title bar, selected the option, add to portal favourite.
thanks

Hi Ankur,
I guess you want one person to manage favorites for all the users of Portal. In such a case you can achieve this without any development work using KM. Just follow the below steps:
1. Create a folder in KM inside documents folder (Content Admin > KM content > documents), say Favorites.
2. Create links (external/Internal) inside the folder.
3. Create a KM navigation I view by name Favorites and edit the property Path to Initially Displayed Folder = /documents/favorites (your folder path in KM)
4. Add this I view to your homepage and page to the subsequent role
5. Assign the role to the user.
It works like custom favorites for all users using which you can centrally control user favorites just by adding or removing links in the KM favorites folder.

How to add folder from KM content to Portal Favorites for selected users

Hi all,
I have cretaed a folder in KM content (In documents) for uploading implementation related ddocuments.
how to add this folder in "Portal Favorites" of selected users only.
Please guide.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
well one way could be the following.
Go into KM-Content --> Repository "userhome" --> select the user you want --> navigate into his folder Favorites --> create a new internal link in this folder to the folder you want
In the favorites of the user there is now a link to the desired folder and after clicking a new window will be opened. You can copy this internal link to the favorites folder of the other users you want.

How to set a common page for all users after loging on?

hi all,
Now "My Dashboard" is the default page after logon.
i want to set a default home page for all users. users can see the home page after loging on.
how to change the default dashboard from "My Dashboard" to "Home page" for all users?
thanks,
dan

Hi,
Steps:
Tried to set default dashboard for all the users.
1. Created a session init block
2. Used data source as select '/shared/SH Test/_portal/Test1' from dual
3. Assigned this value to PORTALPATH session variable
4. In Presentation services > Administration > My account > Default dashboard should be set to 'default'. Then only the dashboard specified in init block will be displayed otherwise My account will override the init block.
5. Save the changes made to rpd.
5. Logout and relogin to see if it is working fine. it is working perfectly fine.
For details please refer the GSC replication document. But it is for all the users.
if customer would like to have user/group based home page.
1. They may need to have 2 separate tables.
i. Group_path_tab with 2 columns. Group_id, portal_path
Have group wise portal path for all the groups
ii. User-group map table
Group_id, Group_name, user_id
User should be part of some group.
2. Then in the init block write the sql should be something like this
select A.portal_path from Group_path_tab A, User_group_map B
where B.user_id = :USER
and B.Group_id = A.Group_id
SO based on USER session variable, it will try to identify the group and then the portal_path.
Finally assign this value to PORTALPATH session variable.

How do I install a Thunderbird add-on for all users? Putting the XPI file into Extensions folder didn't work.

I'm trying to install Enigmail 1.8.2 for all users. I thought I read somewhere that you don't need to unpack the XPI file.
Whilst writing this, I did some experimenting and found a solution, but it's messy (see below). Is there an easier way?
Fresh install of Thunderbird 31.6 on Windows 7 x64. Have observed the following:
1. If I install the extension for one user via the Add-Ons GUI (from the marketplace, not from a local file), it does work. The Appdata\Roaming\Mozilla\Extensions folder is empty. Folder {847b3a00-7ab1-11d4-8f02-006008948af5} is created in Appdata\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\extensions\staged\ and moved from staged to extensions when TB is restarted.
2. If I download the XPI file from Enigmail site and copy it to Program Files(x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\Extensions folder, then Thunderbird's Extensions screen says "You don't have any add-ons of this type installed".
3a. If I rename the xpi to zip (e.g. enigmail-1.8.2-tb+sm.xpi.zip) then I can open it and see that the contents are similar to what was created at point (1). If I unzip the contents, then Thunderbird doesn't recognise the add-on, unless I rename the folder to the GUID above (which could be found in install.rdf or chrome.manifest, once you know what you're looking for).
Presumably I could also have done a per-user install, copied the folder from the profile, removed the extension, then pasted the copy into the program folder. That would save looking up the GUID but is only a little less fiddly.
3b. After renaming the folder and restarting TB, it gives me a new tab "Install Add-on" which says "Another program on your computer would like to modify Thunderbird with the following add-on: ... Location: C:\Program Files (x86)". Once I allow the add-on, it is listed in Profiles\xxxxxxxx.default\extensions.ini.
Aside: Disabling the add-on simply removes the line from extensions.ini, so how does TB distinguish between an unapproved add-on and a disabled one? It seems to be in extensions.json.

Is Thunderbird already installed in the computers? If so, you could download the .xpi file and drag and drop it into the extensions window (after opening that) to install it in all the computers, following which you click the Install buttons when they become enabled, and you might have to restart Tbird afterwards.

Getting tasks for all users in a role

Hi,
We need to get all users in a Role, and out of those, find out which one has the least tasks in their UWL using a WebService. Saw some example codes and here's my attempt at it. Doesn't quite work, I'm getting the Logged in users context or session doesn't exist Exception. Any help on this will be GREATLY appreciated.

Hi David,
I have a similar requirement on our project. I need to get a count of pending workitems for all user but I'm getting similar message when I try to access UWL context of any other user.
Did you find any solution for this? Is it possible to get the workitems for all users using webservice or wendynpro?
I would appreciate if you can provide some inputs on this.
Thank you in advance.

Changing Default Portlets on My Pages for All Users

Hello,
I want to add the Collaboration My Projects Portlet on the default My Pages that comes out of box during a portal install.
I did trying going to Default Profiles - Edit Profile Layout - went to the My Pages as the default profile and added My Projects.
Then finished up.
However, when logging in as a user (via Active Directory which was previously synced) - nothing had changes.
Suggestions how to add My Projects on a My Page for all users?
Thanks,

Any idea on how to move it to the top left by default?
Help...again?
VRandom thought, but you might want to try changing the "Mandatory Portlet Priority". I know the portlet isn't mandatory, so it SHOULDN"T work, but I've seen whackier things:)
Good luck!

New flash player not working for all users

I have Flash 10.0.22.87 installed on a freshly built Citrix 4.5 PS. When the administrator is signed in, everything works just fine. When my users sign in, they navigate to a webpage that requires flash and it either tells them that Flash is not installed or it prompts them to install (but does nothing when you tell it to).
Did flash player become profile specific with this new release? I have 10.0.12.36 and 9.0.115.0 on my other Citrix servers and they work without issue for all users. I've tried uninstalling with the utility I downloaded from adobe.com and re-installing with the offline activeX control. I've played with the security settings opening thing wide open and it still does not work. There is no different software between the problem server and the other Citrix servers other than this version of Flash.
Any suggestions? Thanks in Advance

I am experiencing the same problem on my LAN. Administrator account the app works fine, end users sign in with non admin accounts and it will not work.
I spent some time reading online and found the following instructions on the NET. I tried them and I thought it worked because I was able to log on as a non admin user test account and the flash player worked just fine.
Log in as Admin
2. Download the following zip file from here:
www.supportflash.com/reset_all.zip
3. Unzip this folder onto your desktop.
4. Drag both files ‘reset_min_all.cmd’ and
‘subinacl.exe’ to your
desktop.
5. Run the reset_min_all.cmd file.
6. It will open a DOS like terminal and start
running through registry
keys.
7. When it is finished it will say “press any key
to continue”.
8. At this point you can install the latest Flash
Player:
for Internet Explorer:
http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/ts/documents/tn_19166/Install_F
lash_Player_9_ActiveX.zip
other browsers:
http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer
9. Check that Flash Player is working for the
Admin.
10. Check that Flash Player is working as the
other 2 users.
I hope this information helps. Feel free to reply
if you need further
assistance on the issue discussed here or file
a new case if you want to
report a new issue in the Support Portal:
I also found 6 different versions of Version 8 that supposedly does not require Admin priveleges but it does. Back to the drawing board.

Hide Portal Favorites for only a particular iView

Hello,
Can we hide Portal Favorites in Navigation Panel for a particular iView and whenever requires we can open the Portal Favorites for that iView.
Please suggest. Thank You.
Regards,
Sridhar.

Hi,
You can hide the detailed navigation pannel for a particular page, but user will be able to re-open it via a click on "expand detailed navigation menu".
You can not delete the favorites part for just one iview/page, as it is configured on the portal framework.
You can decide that the iview can not be added to portal's favorite (it is an iview option).
