If in JetspeedResource.properties automatic.logout.save = true, when this new user logs out, new psml is created for the user and saved on file system. This psml is cloned from role_abc with all new unique portlet IDs generated by Jetspeed. I delete the user psml file in psml browser in this case. These are the steps and observed results of new user creation: Pre-condition: role_abc exists with role specific psml in place. in JetspeedResource.properties automatic.logout.save = false. In admin interface create new user. Keep it as disabled at the time of creation. >From user browser edit user roles. By default, Jetspeed asigns role user, editor opens with this role selected. Uncheck default role user, check role role_abc, save. Check psml browser, there is no psml entry for new user. Open new browser instance, login as new user. Page displayed after user login represents correct layout for role_abc, BUT it appears that Jetspeed cloned psml layout defined for ROLE role_abc as USER layout, because all URLs on the page represent references to portlets with new unique portlet IDs that represent user URLS like: Menu Item URL: http://localhost:8080/abc/portal/media-type/html/user/user_xyz/page/default.psml/js_pane/P-f8ad89196e-10006 If at this point I put in browser URL: http://localhost:8080/abc/portal/media-type/html/role/role_abc and refresh browser, the desired psml for ROLE role_abc is used to render the page and all URLs use pane and portlet IDs defined in role_abc psml file. I would like this behavior of loading role based psml layout to occur for the first page rendered for logged in user. Is it possible to do it? Any suggestions/recommendations are welcome.
