Hi All,
I understand that by default the first node is selected by default (wpsSelectednode) in Portal 6.0 when a page loads.
ie if I have Homepage label and under it I have pages corresponding to US,UK,Austraila,.....
How can I make UK as my selected page for a UK user based on his profile when the Homepage is loaded.?

Don't hesitate to mail back if the question is not clear.
Thanks

Hi

As a first thought, have you considered using the Personalisation feature of WebSphere Portal ? This would allow you to write a simple rule to test the user's profile for an attribute such as country, and then display the appropriate theme/page/portlet et
c. ?

Althought it can be implemented by customing the topnav.jspf in my mind, but this is not grace. The idea is this:
In your topnav.jspf, you could get the user's state is that the selected node is null, it is locating on the default homepage in this case. So after that , you could get name group of user and redirect to user's homepage.

In the login mechanism configuration just config one url(redirect.login.url) is not enough for your requirement. If it can be solved by login mechanism,I think it is very grace.
