Configure a Custom Home Page and/or a Menu

Configure which users and/or groups view a custom home page and/or a menu when logging on to ProcessMaker Platform.

Overview

Optionally, configure a custom home page and/or a menu for a user or members of a group when that user or group member logs on to ProcessMaker Platform. A custom home page is either a dashboard that displays to the user or redirects that user to a specified URL. The redirected URL may be to an external site, such as to an organization's portal, or to a ProcessMaker Platform location such as a specified Collection or Saved Search to which that user has access. The custom home page and menu are configured separately.

The user or group member does not experience the custom home page and/or menu change until the next time that user logs on.

When a user is a member of a group and the group's custom home page and/or menu setting is different than that of that user's account, the user account configuration(s) supersedes that of the group's.

Users or group members configured with a custom home page can view that home page by clicking the Home iconfrom the breadcrumbs.

Below is an example of a custom home page that contains a dashboard and custom menu.
