Set what users see when they log in to the portal

Specify the page a user sees when logging in with the Global Settings portlet.

The Global Settings portlet does not work in portal cluster configurations.

1. Click Administration.

2. In the side navigation, click Portal Settings > Global Settings.

3. Make a selection from the field When a user logs in, the first page displayed:

   Will always be the user's default page (portal session will not resume)

   Choose this option if you want users to always return to the default page after log in.

   Will be the page the user most recently visited (portal session will resume)

   Choose this option if you want users to return to the page from their last visit. This option is helpful when users lose their portal session in the middle of a task and need to login to return.

   Will be dependent upon the choice the user makes at log in

   Choose this option to let users determine the initial view by their choice after log in.

4. Click Save.

If you have a portal cluster configuration, use the administrative console to set the property portlets.unauthorized.visible in the portal configuration service. For more details refer to the topics about Portal configuration services and Setting service configuration properties.
