SummaryMandatory components are not showing up.
Detailsproblem with the mandatory components not showing up when a user logs into stoneware.
What does happen: if I log in as a first time portal user(as I mentioned, I don't see the mandatory components), but I go to personalization and select a component to add and select update page, all of the mand. components and the component that was just selected shows up. Further tests reveal that I just need to select update page layout and all the mandatory components show up.
ResolutionThis usually comes from the user not having their "webtemplate" (Home Page) set to /components/displayComponents.jsp If it is blank, then the user will not get anything. Typically you want to set it to that for everyone in the container above, depending on your inheritance or how you have your profiles configured for users.


You can also call the components using the login script.

if webtemplate then
executeWebTemplate()
else
if link allowed "/components/displayComponents.jsp" then
executeURL("/components/displayComponents.jsp")
end end

This checks to see if user has a Home Page set, if so, the home page it launched.
If not, and they have access to the components link, the components are launched.
