If you do not have a "Custom Home Page" field on your user page, contact support@cloudretailer.com for assistance

Overview

Our Custom Home Page addon is a feature that allows a user to set a specific dashboard for a specific user or employee role.  This will let you customize the experience based on the user's job duties.  For example, if a user or group of users manages the product catalog, you can set their dashboard to the product catalog page.

Procedure

1. Log into the back office
2. Navigate to the desired dashboard page
3. Copy the URL web address
   1. Example: http://training.cloudretailer.com/Products
