Which Sugar-Version do you use?

Before 5.5 SugarCRM there was a module available called 'MySites' which gave this option.

You can find a SugarForge-Project 'MySitesModule' (http://www.sugarforge.org/frs/?group_id=922) which is for 5.5.

To get that installed on newer versions (6.*) the manifest.php file has to be patched like this:

     'acceptable_sugar_versions' => array(
        'regex_matches' => array( '5\.5\.\d\w*', '6\.*' ),
    ), 
  

In my 6.0.1 installation this works fine.
I tried this with my 6.2.0beta test installation too and it only works if I use the setting <user administration>->advanced->Grouped Modules OFF (by default this is ON and in that mode the link configured in MySitesModule was not visible as a tab; a sub menu entry called "Array" appeared, but a click on it gave error messages).

Hi Tony,

attached you find the MySitesModule-Zip-File patched for use in version 6. As I mentioned this worked in my 6.0.1 installation and I assume 6.0.3 will be the same.
