Default Home Page & Dashlets

[rexavh]

Does anyone know where the homepage defaults are stored? I would like to replace the OOB defaults with a different set for our company, which the users could then be free to modify (or not), but if they choose to reset then they should get the company standard home page & dashlets.

Thanks in anticipation

You should create a file called dashlets.php in the folder custom/modules/Home/ and add the dashlets you would like to have as default.

$defaultDashlets = array(
'MyTasksDashlet'=>'Tasks',
'MyOpportunitiesDashlet'=>'Opportunities',
'MyCallsDashlet'=>'Calls',
);

Good luck

Hi,

I know this thread is old but I have the same question.

I tried the custom dashlet.php.

It's working except for the Charts. Also, some dashlets like "Sugar News" are automatically added even if it's not in my dashlet.php


Also, how can I decide in which column they go ?

Here is my code :

 $defaultDashlets = array(
                        'MyMeetingsDashlet'=>'Meetings',
                        'MyCallsDashlet'=>'Calls', 
                        'MyTasksDashlet'=>'Tasks',
                        'MyOpportunitiesDashlet'=>'Opportunities', 
                        'OpportunitiesByLeadSourceDashlet'=>'Charts',
                        'PipelineBySalesStageDashlet'=>'Charts',
                        'MyPipelineBySalesStageDashlet'=>'Charts',
                        'SugarFeedDashlet'=>'SugarFeed',
                        'JotPadDashlet'=>'Home',
                         );

I don't think you're able to remove the Sugar related dashlets by default. Employees can individually remove these as they customize their home page, though.

And I think the columns go left, right, left, right in the order that they are listed in dashlets.php. That seems to be the case with mine, but I was unable to confirm this so I could be wrong. If I'm correct you should see Meetings, Tasks, Opportunities Chart, My Pipeline Chart and the Jotpad in the lefthand column and Calls, Opportunities, Pipeline Chart and Sugar Feed in the righthand column.

Hi, for me they seems to be all in the left column.
But your left-right idea is maybe right with another parameter.

Also, my code is not working for charts because they are not there when I create a new user.

For now I found nothing else.

This thread helped me define custom dashlets. What I don't know how to do is to pass parameters to customize them. For example I want to set some filters in the opportunities dashlet and a specific RSS feed in the feed dashlet. How can I do that?
