Hi,

You can achieve this by changing

<default-dashlets>
<dashlet id="getting-started" />
<dashlet id="tasks-todo" />
</default-dashlets>

tag in web-client-config.xml file under ..\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco.

Here you can place your desired list of dashlets which user will see once he logs in.

Also it's better if you override it in web-client-config-custom.xml file.

Hi,

I could change that as you mentioned.. thats working..

But there is a new requirement. We need default dashboard layout as "Two Column Narrow Right"..

I changed following as default..

<layout id="default" columns="2" column-length="4" image="/images/icons/layout_narrow_right_2column.gif"
      label-id="layout_narrow_right_label" description-id="layout_narrow_right_desc"
    jsp="/jsp/dashboards/layouts/narrow-right-2column.jsp" />

Now i get 2 columns..

But there is no option in web-client-config.xml to to give row column values in defalut-dashlets tag (in Alfresco share, presets.xml has that)

<default-dashlets>
    <dashlet id="doclist-webscript" />
     <dashlet id="myspaces-webscript" />
    <dashlet id="tasks-todo" />
     <dashlet id="opensearch"/>
</default-dashlets>

I need 2 first two dashlets in first column and next two in second column..

Kindly advise me any option available..

Thanks,
Ahamed

Step1:

Create a new folder "extension" in following path

C:\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\jsp\dashboards\layouts\extension {You are free to choose to this path. Any path after context root \alfresco\ will do. web-client-config.xml should reflect your path}

Step2:

Create a new file "yourdashboard.jsp" in the folder created in Step1

Step3:

C:\Alfresco\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\web-client-config.xml

Change the following code

<layout id="default" columns="1" column-length="5" image="/images/icons/layout_single_column.gif"
  label-id="layout_single_label" description-id="layout_single_desc"       jsp="/jsp/dashboards/layouts/single-column.jsp" />‍‍

<layout id="default" columns="1" column-length="5" image="/images/icons/layout_single_column.gif"
label-id="layout_single_label" description-id="layout_single_desc"
                  jsp="/jsp/dashboards/layouts/extension/yourdashboard.jsp" />‍‍‍

and

edit the default dashlets tag (Maximum 5)
as

 <default-dashlets>
     <dashlet id="myspaces-webscript"/>
     <dashlet id="opensearch"  /> 
      <dashlet id="tasks-todo"/>
 </default-dashlets>‍‍‍‍‍

Step4:

Add following code in the following code..

Using this method, would one be able to build a default dashboard that has two columns of equal width?
