if you use the security and roles
the only thing you wold have to do is make the portlets of the information you want.

Thanks alot. I looked it up, and it kindof fits what I'm searching for. I think 
I'll have a go at modifying it myself, eventually, but not for now.

myportal was designed to be the landing page for those loging in.
you might want to study how myportal works.
The concept is all information a person with a certian level of security  and 
roles will get a certian set of pages in the myportal.
there is one for customer and two for different type of employees.
if you study the demo data for myportal and look at the myportal admin in 
webtools it will get you going in the right idea.

Hi all!

I'm going to have to demo OFBiz tomorrow, I'm very glad to finally be able to 
play with the software, and to start trying things out with it.

Just wondering: Is there any way to login for the entire site, straight from the start? 
Or can I set OFBiz to redirect me to a "home" if I try to log in an 
unauthorized page? (Currently using 10.04)

I tried to login in Party Manager with an account given only Catalog 
permissions, and here is what I encountered:

In my opinion, it is unclear from a user standpoint what exactly is happening 
here, and why isn't something else happening. The account is registered, the 
login details are fine too, and there is no mention on the page (save the 
address bar) that I'm currently trying to login to the Party Manager 
application.

I'm probably going to go with a custom root application that asks for a login, 
and then just display a custom landing page for the user, showing him the 
applications he can use both from the menu and with cute little icons, for the 
sake of simplicity. Might also modify the menu to show the icons inside it. 
Enough rambling on, back to testing stuffs and preparing my showcase for 
tomorrow!

Thank you!
