Mass customization of Home screen

[duffy]

Hello,

I would like to ask if it is possible to change some dashlets at home screen of all users? After upgrade to 5.2. new dashlets appeared automatically and I want to remove them and to change other dashlets settings for all users.

Hi
The home page have Add Dashlets button. Through this button you can customize the home page Dashlets.

Hi,

I know that, but what if I want to do it as admin, for all users...?

Hi duffy

Have a look on modules/Home/index.php
SugarCRM retrieve the user dashlet definition from

 $pages = $current_user->getPreference('pages', 'Home'); 
$dashlets = $current_user->getPreference('dashlets', 'Home'); 
  

You just need to generate an array containing all pages and a new one containing all dashlets you want to make visible on Home Page for all users and set the preferences for all users:

     $current_user->setPreference('pages', $pages, 0, 'Home');
    $current_user->setPreference('dashlets', $dashlets, 0, 'Home'); 
  

You need to foreach all users and set their preferences.

Cheers
