Login directly to a site and not to dashboard

[rcsalazar77]

I created some sites on alfresco share, but when I invite an external user with profile "consumer" I need this user redirects to: site - documents-library as the default page and not your dashboard.

This is possible?

I change:
/opt/alfresco-3.4.a/tomcat/webapps/share/site-index.jsp
in url : dashboard by "user-sites" and this page now is default.
and:

/opt/alfresco-3.4.a/tomcat/webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/site-webscripts/org/alfresco/components/profile/user-sites.get.html.ftl

in url: dashboard by "documentlibrary" and this page is default in "sites"acces module

Regards, sorry my english,
Roberto

It's a bad idea to alter files within the webapps folder directly. As soon as Tomcat decides to redeploy the share.war, or you want to upgrade, you'll lose all your modifications. Instead, the correct place is the Tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension folder for Share.

Please see http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Alfresco_Share and http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Share_Custom_Pages
You'll also need to ensure Tomcat is picking up the /shared folder: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Install_Tomcat6

Hi Mike,
Sorry to be a bit of a thread necro, I was wondering if you could clarify this a little - If I want to change site-index.jsp  I understand I should not just change it in the webapps folder as it will eventually be overidden. I know that inside of tomcat/shared/classes I can place override config files and in tomcat/shared/lib I can place jar files to be deployed, however my JAR files seem to start at the alfresco directory (ie webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco). As a result it seems I cannot place a new site-index.jsp in a jar file and have it override the default one (or if I can, I do not know how). Similarly as it is script as opposed to configuration I do not see it helping to place it in the tomcat/shared/classes or any of the directories below. What would be the recommended way to override site-index.jsp?
