Changing the home page

[Koldstream]

Hi I'm using sugar 5.2

I posted this question before and I thought I had solved it but apparently I was wrong.

How do you change the home page of Sugar? At the moment it always goes to Home when you open Sugar.

I have reordered the tabs so that opportunities (the tab I want the user to land on ) is at the top of the list but this doesn't work. I have also tried to make the home page hidden (under the tab configuration section but this doesn't work)

Has anyone got any ideas, or is this impossible?

Thanks

Insert the code at top of file ../modules/Home/index.php It should be something like this

 header('location: index.php?module=Contacts&action=index');
exit;

When you login to Sugar, it goes to default module which is by default Home. However, you don't need to change/remove Home page, since Dashlets will be necessary. Instead you could put default module value in config.

For example, I am using Documents as my default module, i.e.in config_override.php I have put the following:
$sugar_config['default_module'] = 'Documents';
and whenever user logs in, he/she will go to documents module.

Great solution! I forgot about this.

Hi,

I also needed to change the home page as per user basis.
This is one solution but it would be fixed for all users.

another solution is

modules/Users/Authenticate.php

copy this file in custom/modules/Users/Authenticate.php
What it would do is make it upgrade safe.

Looks for
if(!empty($modListHeader[$idx])){
$module = '?module='.$modListHeader[$idx];
$action = '&action=index';
$record = '';
}

Do the necessary changes that let you make the per user basis homepage

and repalce $modListHeader[$idx] with $module_name_for_my_user // the module u want as the home page
place your code before the code mentioned above.
That would redirect the user to the whatever the value is in that variable. do check a lil bit more coz i dun have Sugar installation with me right now. But i hope you got the idea.


Hope it is helpful !!!
