HomePagePlugin

Allow User specified home pages - on login

Usage

This plugin makes the Default frontpage configurable - any time a user goes to http://isc.astro.cornell.edu they will be shown the topic configured by the Foswiki administrator in {HomePagePlugin}{SiteDefaultTopic} in the Extensions section of configure.

TemplateLogin? configurable HomePage? on login

The Admin can also configure {HomePagePlugin}{GotoHomePageOnLogin} so Foswiki Always show user's HomePage? (from the UserForm field in their User topic.) when they log in (makes sense if users have personalised home pages.) Note that this means that any URL's emailed to them will only be useful after login.

Installation Instructions

You do not need to install anything in the browser to use this extension. The following instructions are for the administrator who installs the extension on the server.

Open configure, and open the "Extensions" section. Use "Find More Extensions" to get a list of available extensions. Select "Install".

If you have any problems, or if the extension isn't available in configure, then you can still install manually from the command-line. See http://foswiki.org/Support/ManuallyInstallingExtensions for more help.
