Hello All,
I just finished reading a guide that says you publish a homepage layout and then your users have to choose to use that layout.
Is there no way to deploy a homepage for all users so that they don’t have to go in and choose it?
Hello All,

You should be able to select a system default layout in the settings on the desktop client. I’ve never tried this but it is an option in the settings.
I see it now, I found it after I posted this thread.
I still don’t understand what the thought process was behind having to tell a user what home page to select. You should be able to publish a home page to each user group/security group…
Maybe I read the instructions too fast and that IS a possibility. I hope that’s the case.
The security is wild too for the home page, but that’s already been discussed here many times.
As far as I know you can’t assign per group, but you can assign it per user in User Account Security Maintenance:
However, I have not had good luck with this actually working properly. The system-wide default still seems to be applied.
You can also apply a default home page per company in Company Maintenance, but again, I can’t get this to work properly.
I’d be curious to hear how you choose to manage this, and how well it works for you.
We’re not live yet so that’s a problem for down the road. lol
Haha, okay, thanks for chiming in!
Thank you Andrew, and thanks for giving me an example of how you have tried to manage it. I will try out the user by user set up as that’s pretty straightforward, I just hope it works.
What version are you on?
2022.1.10 - Riding the cutting edge!
Okay, well that doesn’t make me feel great haha, I was hoping you were on an older version and that’s why the user specific homepages weren’t working!
We are on 2022.1.6…
