Assigning a page as users home page in portals

Hi, I've created a portal page. For some users we want this to be the default page they see as soon as they login instead of the default portal homepage. How can I achieve this?
Thanks

You may use either of the two ways to achieve this and both uses portal profile settings of the user. To access portal profile settings, go to Builder page/Administer tab; and use the portlet edit portal profiles.
1. one can either define a group with its default home page as this page that you created. then you can make all such users a member of that group. and now define this group in the 'portal profile' of these users.
2. or simply define this page as the default homepage of the user in the same portal user profile.
understand that this assumes that you do not want to make it the homepage for all users - or the 'global default homepage'.
hope that helps!

Firefox 4 and the previous 3.x version fail to update changed user home pages? After reboot the ancent home pages reappear and the replace the now ones. Why & how to fix this software bug?

- Firefox 4.0 is used as preferred browser
- One can change the user home pages. The new homepages are found & work ok after closing and reopening Firefox.
- However, after rebooting the laptop (HP Elitebook), old Firefox home pages reappear, they replace the new ones.
- If I remember correctly this bug appeared already prior Firefox 4.0, this malfunction/ bug was noted in some last winter version before the v 4.0.
- Help/ Bug fix is appreciated!

Is it possible to control users home page in firefox from server?

is it possible to control users home page in firefox from server?

Maybe OP means for their network users using Workgroup Manager?
I don't think there is a way to do it for firefox.
Unless you can put in a Firefox pref file in their directory when they log in.

The back, forward, reload and stop buttons are greyed out, the address bar stays blank when I go to a website and firefox loads to a blank page, not my home page. There are 3 users on this computer and it only happens on one user.

Firefox loads to a blank page, not my home page. When I click on the home button it takes me to the home page. The back, forward, refresh and stop buttons are greyed out and not usable. The webpage I am on does not show up in the address bar. If I type something into the address bar, that address stays there no matter what page I go to next.

Just upgraded to v4. It did NOT fix the problem.

When i want to return to my home page I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want how can I stop this as i have too many tabs open.

When I want to return to my home page after looking at a website I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want.How can I stop this as I have too many tabs open and have to close all of them.

You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Does that flush the tab?
Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior.

How to launch the Create Incident page as the Home Page

Hi All,
My issue is to launch the Create Incident page as the Home Page in the Service Pro Role.
To launch the Create Incident page as the Home Page is there any SPRO Configuration or we have to do through the code?
Thanks & Regards,
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
This can be done in the navigation bar configuration. Go to the path below and select your navigation bar profile, next to the description of your navigation bar profile there is a link ID, replace the home work centre logical link SRV-HOM-WC with this link SRV-INC-CR.
When you now log into your business role the incident creation screen should display instead of the service home screen
SPRO --> CRM --> UI Framework --> Technical Role Definition --> Define Navigation Bar Profile

David.

Firefox will not hold a page for my home page

I am running firefox 5 I try to set a certain page for my home page,it will take it,but as soon as I close the browser,and reopen it,it goes back to a search page

Which search page?
Try:
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved

With version 5, on starting get a box "checking compatibility of add-ons" then to Firefox home page not my home page--What's happening?

Just installed version 5. As above I get the box then it goes to Firefox home page not my home page. I've updated and/or disabled every add-on or extension and it made no difference. I am in a university behind a tough firewall. I'd love to go back to version 4 but that isn't available.

Disabled add-ons will still be checked and can still be updated.
I don't know why you are continuously getting the message, you should only get it when there is a version change.
You can try solutions in https://support.mozilla.com/questions/817681 but you had better make a list of what extensions you had disabled first, because all of your extensions will be enabled when you delete/rename those files in your profile. You can use about:support to get a list of your extensions. (renaming is safer than deleting).

After Downloading v8 I keep getting checking compatibilty dialogue box popping up, then Firfox opens two tabs, Meet Mozilla welcome page and my home page. How can I stop this?

I cannot set my igoogle page as my home page using a new MacBook Air with the latest verion of the Mac OS and Firefox.

I have a new MacBook Air with the latest Mac OS and I down loaded the latest version of Firefox from your web site. I am trying to set my igoogle page as my home page. I log into my igoogle home page and then go to the Preferences option on the Firefox menu. I click the option to use the current page as my home page. As long as I am logged into Firefox it takes me back to my igoogle home page when I click on the Home icon. If I log out of Firefox and open it again later in the day it takes me to the igoogle log in page but not my home page. I have a Mac at home and do not have this problem and I do not have this problem with my PC at the office.
Any ideas?

How can I manage new Firefox for Mac on my network. Control users Home Pages for Mobile User Accounts.

I am running Mac Computers in a School. Current Mountain Lions OS and current Firefox Browser. We log in using mobile accounts. How can we manage Firefox so all users get the same home page and settings.
If I can do locally or through a profile, that would be great

hello, you could use the mozilla.cfg file in the firefox program folder in order to lock or set certain preferences - here is some general information on how to set that up: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
and specific guide to set the homepage can be found here: http://mike.kaply.com/2012/08/29/setting-the-default-firefox-homepage-with-autoconfig/ (this blog also contains may other helpful resources for deploying firefox)

How to Get My Dashboard as Default Page Instead of Home Page in OBIEE 11G?

Hello Gurus,
I have one requirement where i need to change default page to "My Dashboard" like what we had in OBIEE 10G ?
Rite-now in OBIEE 11G when any user logs in they are directed to "Home" Page, but i want to change the navigation to "My Dashboard" for all user..
I know the option to in My Account and Change the Default dashboard in Preferences , but it's manual way to do it for all end-users.
and the other is to create the PORTALPATH Variable and do it from RPD.
So I am looking to some other way there we can change the navigation path from system file itself...
Thanking You..

Hello David,
Thanks for reply.
Actually I am just concern abt the OBIEE Dashboard page, the link that u have mentioned is for Application Server, where we can manage the multiple Application Portals.
and it also doesn't come with Middleware that we are installing for OBIEE.
so i did get some useful information but not related to my question.
is there any place in EM(Enterprise Manager) or Console(Admin Console) from where we can manage the Default Portal for OBIEE Users?
Thanking You..

How can I create a Splash / Welcome Page before the home page

I'm trying to create a splash page to inform our users about some changes to the site before they enter the site. I created a new page in the top menu by clicking the left X of the home / index page, which is the result that wanted. But when I click on site properties of this new splash page it has inherited the "index.html" filename and when I export the HTML my home page is now named "index1.html."
I'm concerned about the effects this will have on our SEO and analytics, so I was wondering if there was a work around for this. Basically I'm looking to have the Splash page with the new information be the first thing visitors see with a button that allows them to enter the main site sfter they've read the information. But I don't want to compromise the page structure by adding another index page or renaming the existing index page.
Is this possible? Or can someone suggest a way to accomplish this in MUSE?

...Is this possible?...
Not quite, if you are concerned about SEO. Introductory or 'splash' pages are terrible for this and can hurt your search results even after you pull the splash page down. In regard to SEO, we already shoot ourselves in the foot by using Muse. Be careful about compounding this with a splash page.
Ideally, your web site would check for the existence of a cookie that identifies if the visitor has seen the alert. If the cookie is not present, a DIV overlay would be presented with your alert. Once that alert is presented, the cookie would be written to prevent further display of the alert. You could achieve this in any other web design program (or text editor) today, or you can submit a feature request and wait for Muse to offer this functionality in months/years.
