Portal splash page for public users

I am creating a portal and I would like to show a tailored splash page to public users. This splash page will probably have some graphics and text on it, and also a link to allow the user to Login.
Each authenticated user will be assigned to a group, and each group will have a default home page. When either group logs out, the splash page should be shown again.
How can I do this? Should the splash page be in a page group by itself? (Note: I am using 10g.)
Any ideas?

Hi Rhonda:
We did something very similar by doing the following:
1) Create a new page group and make its root page your public splash page. Under access, make this page public
2) Set the new page as the default home page for the portal
3) Set the default home page of each group to their appropriate page
4) Assign each user to their default group.
Now, when someone enters the URL of your portal, their see the splash page. When they log-in, they are taken to the appropriate page for their group. I think the only thing this misses is sending them back to the splash page when they logout. We had the default logout screen come up and users had to click [Return] to get back to the splash page. I'm sure there is a way to send them there automatically, but will leave that up to another forum reader.
You may also want to consider setting up a "nice" url for the portal so they don't have to put in the port number and the "pls/portal". You can edit your httpd.conf file in the Apache server to redirect a simple URL on port 80 to the right URL and right port. Just don't forget to reload the configuration afterwards.

How do I set the default welcome page for PUBLIC user

gurus,
i'm using -
Oracle 9i Database
Oracle 9ias Portal Release 2
QUESTION => how do I set the default welcome page for the PUBLIC user.
i did the following to achieve this -
1. logged into portal
2. clicked on builder
3. clicked on administer tab
4. selected PUBLIC user in the Portal User Profile portlet
5. went to the preferences tab
6. in the default home page selected a custom page group
7. logged out of portal
8. open a new browsere session
9. type the portal URL and i get the login page ....??
i'm unable to understand this behavior ... shouldn't i be getting the page group that i set for the PUBLIC user in step 6 above ....
the second QUESTION is => when the user logs out he/she should see the PUBLIC page set in step 6 above ... but, instead the user sees a page that is as follows -
Partner Application Name Logout Status [Logout Status]
Oracle Portal (portal) logout status
The SSO Server (orasso) checkmark
buzz.resva.trw.com:7778 checkmark
infrastructure.happy.resva.trw.com checkmark
portal1.buzz.resva.trw.com checkmark
portal2.sylvester.resva.trw.com checkmark
sylvester.resva.trw.com:7778 checkmark
so, how can i set the default page for the PUBLIC user and also a page when he user logs out.
ideas anyone ....?
thanx a bunch.

Hi,
The sequence of operation you are doing to set the home page for public users is correct. You are getting the login screen as the "custom page group" selected as "home page" has not been granted to public.
Also, while logging-out, it is normal behaviour to get the screen where it shows the list of partner applications from where user has been logged-out. When you click on "Return" button, you will get to the "home page" set above.
Hope it clarifies the things.

URGENT : Display Page To Public Users

Hi,
I'm working with PL/SQL PDK on portal 9.0.4.
For my process, I need to be able to check the 'Display Page To Public Users' checkbox on the Access tab of a page properties. I don't find how it is possible to perform it.
I see the field ispublic on table wwpob_page$ but I will not modify this directly. I would like to use the API.
The same could be interesting for the inherit access settings from template.
Thanks,
Eddy.

Hi,
I want to achieve exactly the same, but I fear using the "wwpob_api_page" API, since I think it's an internal ORACLE API and hence not a good basis for any long term development, due to possible future changes, etc...
Is there any way to do the same using a public, supported API? For example: "wwsec_api" or "wwsbr_api"?
Thanks in advance and happy new year!

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.

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,

Great...I added a new one, and it dropped it to the bottom of the page, in the middle column.
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!

Omniportlet for public user

Hello,
I have Omniportlet based on existing web pages defined as user orcladmin. When I want see page as public user he ask me to define Omni porlet. Why?

I have recently been experiencing a similar problem on Portal 10.1.4 and have finally got to the bottom of it so thought I would share it here.
The problem was the language that the browser was set to (the browser that was used to define the portlet). The browser used to define the OmniPortlet was set to 'en-gb' but the OmniPortlet locale language in the provider.xml was 'en'.
I changed the language in the browser to be 'en' and redefined the OmniPortlet and then it displayed OK to all users. The solution was found on Metalink under Bug Number: 3573137.

How to enable detail view interactive report as default for public user?

Hello all,
I'm currently developing a search results page.
I'm trying to do a nice view instead of a default table like view from the interactive reports. So in this case i enabled the detail view so i could make fancy designs.
all worked well and looked neat but however when i pass value from my search page using IR_ROWFILTER and clear the results page using page_no,RIR, it brings me to the interactive reports result page with the default table like view.
i have to press the detail view to get it. i tried saving it as default but it wont work. this issue is for public user.
if i make the page requires authentication, and save the detail view as default i would not have any problem. i could search and it will straightly bring to the detail view of the search page.
of course the other reason i found is because im using the IR_ROWFILTER and clearing page using page_no,RIR..without it,it works well but i need it coz im doing a a search result. i need to send search text from another page and put it in the filter in the search page. i would need to use RIR to clear it for searching again.
is this a limitation for public user? it doesnt happened for authenticated user though..
how can i make this view as default for public user?

Flip the report into Detail view on page load using an Page Load dynamic action with the following Execute JavaScript Code true action:
gReport.data.view('DETAIL');

Do you really need this to be an IR? Other than the detail layout, do you require any of the interactive features? If not, try using a standard report with a custom report template.

Personalize the home page for every user.

Dear CRM guru's,
I would like to personalize the home page for all users by hiding some of the sections(My open tasks and Alerts). I don't want the users to enable these 2 sections when they try to personalize the page. Can you please suggest me how I can achieve this.
Thanks!
Surya.

Surya,
This is very easy. The homepage is another view in an application component.
For the sales home page, you would go to application WCC_SLS_HOME and configure the view WCC_SLS_HOME/SalesHome.
You can then restrict what applications show up on that home page.
You just need to find out what "home" application your role is using and configure that one accordingly. Most follow the WCC_*_HOME pattern.
Take care,
Stephen

Change home page for mobile user

Is it possible to change safari home page for mobile user via script or locally? We have OD profile which is set to delete all data after logout.
Also is it possible do automatic login for mobile user?
thank you...

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you want to customize home page for different user.
There are two methods to accomplish your requirement. You could
create a webpart with code or a control the page that redirect to a new page based on the users or groups.
Please refer to this article:

ASTO - can't get it "Sorry, there's no splash page for you"

Hi
I just created sales account. I had problems with account activation and now when I log in I see error "Sorry there is no splash page for you" Can you help me?

Bartasg17 wrote:
Sorry, it's standard account, not "sales" account. I'm not Apple employee, I'm working for electronic store, and I want to start ASTO.
Yes, I understood that you are not an Apple employee. Is your electronics store an authorized Apple reseller? I may be misinformed, but to the best of my knowledge the Apple Sales Training will only be available to you if you work for an authorized Apple reseller. If you do not, you will not be able to access that training.
If you are working for an authorized Apple reseller, then again you need to have whoever in your company works with your Apple reseller account contact Apple channel support.

HT3867 My iPhone won't display the login page for public wireless hotspots

My iPhone 4S does not load the login pages of public wifi hotspots. It has not always done this for I cn remember a using it afew times. Help please before I break this phone lol

One possibility is that you have specified DNS servers in your Network preferences. (Network Preferences -> Advanced -> DNS, see if anything is specified.) If so, you want to create a new network location which doesn't have any DNS servers defined. (Network Preferences -> Location -> Edit Locations.) Create a new one (click the + sign), and use that location when logging on to public WiFi hotspots.
The other (and worse) problem might be a security feature added to OS 10.7.2 and higher versions.
Apple found out that a hacker could fool you into accepting a bogus "update" via a fake Software Update pop-up. The fix was to rig the OS so that, when you connect to a wifi network, a Mac running the new and improved OS will silently "phone home" to an IP address at apple.com, and inquire about the hotspot's certificate. If it fails to get back a message declaring the hotspot's certificate to be valid, it assumes that the hotspot login popup is fake, and won't let you proceed. The permanent solution is for the hotspot's "captive portal system" to allow Macs to connect to the Apple host, so that the OS can do the verification. Most public WiFi systems have made the adjustment, but there are quite a few (including many schools) who are behind the curve. If this is your issue, tell whoever runs the network to get with the program!
While waiting for that to happen, you can always copy the login page url from a PC (or older Mac OS) that is able to access the hotspot, paste it into your address bar, and take it from there. (Truncate the url at the first question mark . . . the ? and all the junk that comes after it are likely to be specific to the machine you copied it from. You'll see a fresh bunch of junk materialize, as the site talks to your Mac.)
