Hi all,
I realise this is a pretty basic question but i cant for the life of me either work out how to do it, or find it anywhere in the documentation.
Essentially i have a project that i need to use liferay for, but its fairly simple in the sense that just making my own version of the 7cogs stuff as simply understanding it would be enough for now i feel. I have removed the 7cogs data and end up with a pretty blank default liferay page once i login (ie, just a "You are logged in as Joe Bloggs" and the hello world portlet). The problem is that for my project i would like users to be able to login (with whatever user) then have a default page already set up with a few custom portlets, i also want to disallow editing, moving, etc these porlets, aswell as, of course, branding the whole container in a different way.
Im sure this must be more than possible, no? I have started to write my own upgrade hook process in an attempt to recreate the 7cogs hook, but im not even sure how my class is run, let along what i should be making it do in the "doUpgrade" function in order to create all the defaults i need.
If anyone could give me some pointers or, even better, fuller tutorials on how to essentially replace/rework the entire portal container so that it behaves very much like a normal website for logged in users (with no editing) i would be incredibly grateful as the documentation seems to be a little thin on the these type of procedures.
Thanks in advance,
Ian Harrigan
